Thanks I dread to think how many tees I will see in Disney

Is a quiet weekend this week, getting my hair coloured and running some errands, Dave wants to be lazy and catch up on Disney movies How about you?

that sounds good.... "catch up with Disney movies", love it! I always try to watch as many as possible before a trip! We watched Lilo & Stitch the other week, love that movie! I really like the alien Plimkie, such a funny sidekick

I'll be mostly studying this weekend (boring!), DF is off to the football tomorrow so I'll have the house to myself for most of the day lol, put on some Disney music & hit the books!

Day 11 - Sunday 10th October

Today we are finally going to use our vouchers that we get as part of our UK Package and try out...

But not before grabbing a quick bite to eat at...

...for breakfast

Today is going to be a laid back day (fingers crossed). Depending on what time we finish the world is our oyster

Lunch is at...

Looking forward to trying and seeing this place, looks so grand from the outside

I guess after lunch we will wander around, maybe catch a ride on Soarin' or Test Track, before heading off to an early dinner at...

I think this restaurant will be our first time trying lobster, hope we like it We will again take a relaxed pace with dinner and wander the resort if we have time. I hear that there is a store that sells Disney Fairytale Wedding stuff which I just have to check out

Then we'll either head back to the resort for a quick change and then head over to MK for our reservation for...

Sooooo excited to try this out, fireworks with a view and yummy scrummy desserts to boot

MK is also open until 2am which we are looking forward to as both our trips in the past we have never really stayed out late and experienced the parks late at night. Am excited to see what MK looks like at 2 in the morning

Lilo & Stitch is our fav as we love Stitch We have been working through our list of Disney films in the order they were made, right now we are up to Leroy & Stitch.

Oh and btw Pirates on Blu-ray is awesome!!! If you haven't already got it, go get it

Sounds like a plan for tomorrow, esp if you got the house to yourself

First of all... the latest day plan looks amazing!!! Hope you enjoy Fantasia Gardens.. I went there for the first time last year & loved it (i'm rubbish at mini golf though!) Felt like we'd found another little piece of magic in WDW!

I was going to buy the PotC triology on Bluray, but now that the fourth film is being made, I might wait and get the whole set together!


I notice in Lilo & Stitch, that when they show the town where Lilo lives, there is a Chinese restaurant called "Mulan Wok" ... which I think is fab because Mulan and L&S were both produced at the WDW Studios!!

Love Fantasia Golf. Although I am a little has to how that is a laidback day with all the back and forth you are doing.

Mark and I have been watching Disney movies all week in preparation of our trip. He keeps sending me emails that say, "just keep swimming, just keep swimming."

Thank Quite looking forward to mini golf as we do like a round of that when we go to the seaside

Awesome about L&S, I did a quick Google search and look what I found Easter Egg wise in Mulan and L&S

I love Disney Easter Eggs, although I only ever find out about them on the net, rather than the film

Well I guess its laid back in a we have no set plans apart from food kinda of way

Aww bless him I love Dory, she is an awesome character on Nemo

 

[Mickey_Mom]

I have to admit I was thinking the same about your laid back day. You're doing an awful lot of travelling but its great just the same.

I love having breakfast at the Main Street Bakery ... I've planned that out for our next MK day, definately a family favorite.

Those Wishes desserts look incredibly delicious!!

 

[dismagiclover]

Lots of fun events on Day 11! I can't wait to hear about them. We're going to try mini golf in January. Hopefully we like it!

I think for us it is laid back because we dont actually have to rush around a park trying to go on rides etc. Because we are staying at the Poly, transport is very easy from the MK area so it should be a nice slow walking day just taking in the sights I do need to figure out the quickest way of getting the the Golf area from the MK though, any ideas?

 

[disneybarbie]

Fantasia Gardens is right next to the Dolphin hotel.. so I would hop on a bus at MK to the Swan & Dolphin resorts

Thanks for that, so we can just walk there from the Swan/Dolphin? Awesome, we can check out the resorts as well perhaps

 

[disneybarbie]

yup.. it's across the road from the Dolphin - we walked there from the Yacht Club, took less than 10 minutes.

There are two course to choose from.. "The Gardens" one is fun/easy mini golf, other one is more like 'proper golf' with really tricky holes!!

Some good info on it at All Ears website .. Fantasia Gardens

You get a souvenir golf ball afterwards with a Disney character on.. we got Grumpy ones & Minnie Mouse ones!

Should be fun having breakfast at MS Bakery as we tried to have breakfast there on our last trip but the line was out the door and half way down MS itself so we ended up leaving it. Hopefully it won't be too bad this year.

Thanks Should be a good day

I agree its a day where we can please ourselves and not really stick to the schedule

I think the Garden one will do for us. Thanks for the info, should be lots of fun and a souvenir golf ball at the end is v cool

Day 12 - Monday 11th October

Can't believe from this point there are only two and a half days left at Disney

Today is another...

Its supposed to be the CS, but couldn't find a pic

Its also an AM EMH, but seeing as how we would have stayed in MK the previous night til 2am we may not make it for rope drop this morning.

We'll head on over to KS to grab a FP, then find something to ride, either Kali or EE. I think this day will be a "see where it takes you" kind of day. We wouldn't have seen Mickey's Jammin' Jungle Parade on our last AK day, so we will most prob grab some lunch here...

and then afterwards stake out a spot for the parade, I hear that the Dawa Bar is a good spot to see it from, am I right?

Then we'll most prob head back to the resort to change for our evening reservation at...

and thats it for Day 12

 

[KatMark]

Love you Day 12 plans. I love the Animal Kingdom and one of these trips we're going to spend a whole day there. We did Yak & Yeti's table service in 2008 -- awesome food (a little bit of slow service, but they had just opened).

Thans You must give AKL a full day one day. There is so much to see and do as its such an overlooked park

Hopefully the CS is a little bit better, am looking forward to it, hope there's a nice seating area nearby
