BE's Never Ending TR -- That kind of ... Ended? Or did it?

[Belle Ella]

Oh you don't need to get the outfit then. I will dress him at a later date.

Alrighty then!!

 

[kaoden39]

Alrighty then!!

I really appreciate you getting him.

OK, so I was really, really bad today. Give me a second to take photos and I'll tell you why.

Should we guess?

I'll go first: either you bought a friend for Duffy (in case you *ahem* leave him at home alone again) or you kept the Dooney you were going to return AND bought the other one you really wanted.

Ooh I am taking the second one.

So, a couple quick things I want to add about today: even more Christmas decorations came down over the night. The tree, for example, is gone. But the snow is still on the Castle and decorations are still up in Critter Country and Toontown (and of course IASW promenade). The construction walls around the California letters got decorated so they aren't just plain old walls. Um ... I don't think there was much else. I finally saw the White Rabbit out and about today with the Queen of Hearts, but sadly didn't get a photo with them (of them, yes).

And without further ado ...

First we have the 55th Anniversary letter carrier. Originally I had got one of the colored sketch ones but I changed my mind yesterday and the 55th Anniversary one is something special so I just had to have it. I exchanged the sketch for this one first thing this morning.

But see, that one was a Christmas present froma combination of grandparents, aunts, and Jason. That's not really me being bad. What is me being bad is this one that I had to buy on my way out of the Park today ...

There you have 'em!! Guess which one cost more.

Well, you were close on both counts. I didn't buy Duffy a new friend, but I did get him a new outfit. And I didn't keep the other Dooney, but it was Dooney related!!

I bet the wallet is more expensive.

I bet the wallet is more expensive.

That it is! Not by much, mind you, but it sure was. The letter carrier was $155 and the wallet/checkbook organizer was $175.

I am SO glad to hear that the walls surrounding the CALIFORNIA letters are decorated now. I was hoping they would do that. Also, the D&B bag and wallet are CUTE! I have a wrislet from the Princess collection in black...it's sooo cute. I had to stop myself from getting more! Dooney & Burke + Disney = hard to resist!

I love the letter carrier but it doesn't look big enough to hold even the wallet.

Question, do you thing Duffy can fit into Build a Bear clothes?

I believe Jasmine got a couple things for Duffy there. I think they may be a little big, I dunno. I was thinking about stopping there today (can still do it tomorrow) to check and see.

I wasn't planning on using them together. I almost have one Dooney for every day of the week so I can rotate. I'm totally taking the letter carrier with me tomorrow.

I will try and post the photos for you tonight if I can edit them fast enough. It's my last night here and so far no idea what we're doing yet but Jason just got back from work a little bit ago.

Ok, I need to look at the purses when I go. I like the strap on the letter carrier.

I do too. It's the big reason why I picked it over any of the other purses. I like that I can sling it cross-body. Yay! And you can adjust the length on it.

OK, so here are some photos of what the entrance to DCA currently looks like ...

Facing DCA from the esplanade:

To the left there is a rope marking the line entrance:

This will take you along the boards until you get to the far left gates for entry:

To the left you'll be able to exit:

Oh what a mess that is gonna be on President's weekend.

 

[Belle Ella]

Maybe they'll have something figured out, lol. I don't know how they did it first thing this morning though. Maybe they have both sides open for entry. I dunno.

So we just got back from dinner. I probably wont be back on tomorrow morning before I leave since I want to be all packed and ready to go as much as I can tonight. So if I don't post any more tonight ...

Good night!!

 

[amamax2]

Super cute purse and wallet - I love, love, love them...till I saw the prices. Ouch!

I do like the See You Real Soon Sign - that is calling out for a picture to be taken. Thanks for posting those so quickly.


Good night - sweet dreams.

 

[Belle Ella]

So ... not heading out just yet. But I had to share this though with everyone: Technically, I have been at DLR every single day this year!!



I got mad skills.

Don't ask. Sigh.

The prices make you want to gouge your eyes out, right? I'm somewhat sorry I asked the price on the wallet instead of just walking by. Asking how much it was meant that I wanted it. And even after she told me I almost walked away. But then I said to myself: I really don't splurge on myself often. If I'm gonna do it, I better do it now. And I did. Now I just need to be good.

At least I saved 20%! That's got to be the silver lining, right? That and the fact that I didn't pay for the purse. That was all gift money from Christmas.

Not many people can say that! Do you know when the next trip is? You need to come back in Feb, and then you can say I've been to DL three months in a row!

But then I said to myself: I really don't splurge on myself often. If I'm gonna do it, I better do it now. And I did. Now I just need to be good.

It's Ok to treat yourself. I give you permission.
