Here are some more photos from the boat.

The lodge again.



Bay lake side of Contemporary.



An empty woodie!



The ferry.



Polynesian.



And a cute life vest sign!

 

[FSU ED]

Next up was Main Street.
The trolley is fully decorated for spring.



The new Pandora shop at the back of Uptown Jewelry has been open about 8 weeks. They have all the Disney chRms, the park exclusives and lots of regular charms and accessories.





Not telling which one we got for my mother in law! She will love the one we got!

The girls found some new Vera Bradley bags. Bought with Christmas gift cards!



Then we ventured into the new hub area. This is a great addition to the hub area of mk. Lots of grass and fountains. This is the fast pass area for the fireworks as well.









Neat new area!

We stopped off for a Citrus Swirl in the new sunshine terrace. They switched locations with Dole Whip.



Next up was the ring carver. Oldest DD has been saving her money to get the gold ring made here. Youngest dd got the brass ring. At $17 with the butterfly design, this is a neat souvenir. Watching the crafter saw the design is unique too. I recommend watching it.





Diamond horseshoe was serving. We got a root beer slushy inside. Pretty good.

Oldest dd stopped to take pictures of the festival of fantasy parade on the way to lunch. 12 noon parade in addition to 3 due to high crowd levels.

And a few more from the parade.

Joining in! Great TR so far!! I love hearing about the Fort...never stayed there but visited in March and had a lot of fun!

 

[FSU ED]

Next up was lunch at the Plaza Restaurant. We always enjoy a good meal there.



The steak sandwich.



The cheeseburger.



The brisket burger.



Dessert.

Saw the dapper dans on Main Street.



Also had some portraits made of the girls. They had never done that before. It was fun talking with Erin and she is a great artist.

 

[FSU ED]

We finished our afternoon with bippity boppity boutique. This is the last time my wife will get to have the oldest do it. Oldest dd was a good sport to make momma happy.



And then we had fast passes to see Anna and Elsa. We had a fantastic day!

 

[FSU ED]

Tonight we made it to Crockett's. There is NO Banana Cabana. They do not have the right rum. They do have several banana drinks as they do carry the banana liquor that we are looking for. My drink here was " Old Smokey Apple Pie Moonshine." Loved it.

The much awaited menu!

 

[FSU ED]

And more of the menu from Crocketts!

 

[FSU ED]

And the rest of the menu. It is page by page.

 

[FSU ED]

And the last few.




The Banana Spiced Rum Martini and the Bahamas Mama have the banana liquor in it. I hope you find something that you are looking for.

We found some unique stuff from at the Arcade at Crocketts. On Sunday the games were free. They were free again tonight. The arcade at the pool is still for a fee. We have no idea what is going on with the free games and we do not remember them being free. The girls love free video games. If anyone has any info, let us know.

The pool arcade.











Crocketts arcade.



Very hard to read but it says "free"



The only game not free is the new fast and the furious game there. Just a heads up!

 

[FSU ED]

Comfort stations are now full magic band compatible.



The last time we were here in October we had to use a key card still. Not sure when this was changed!

 

[FSU ED]

Parking last night at Downtown Disney was in the new garage. Although, all should avoid driving in this area at all costs (crazy), the parking garage is cool. There are electric signs telling you how many spots on each floor, in each row, and a green light indicates a free spot. This was neat technology.


This shows how many on each floor.




Floor one has 56 spots.

This row has 2 spots in it.


Green light means empty spot.



There are four levels in the garage.

 

[FSU ED]

Good night from the fort!

Wholly Cow. I don't remember Crockett's Tavern having that big of a drink menu. I will really have to check that out next trip.

Thanks for the DTD/DS garage pics. I had read about the open spot indicators, but never saw what it really looked like.

Glad the girls enjoyed BBB. I just had a staff member ask what she should do with her DGD8 when she goes for the first time next month. I said BBB is a bunch of fun as you watch your money fly through the air.

Yes the money does fly at the BBB but the girls enjoy themselves, especially the 7 year old. She loved it. I also would recommend it for the 8 year old.

We sat and took pictures of the menu for like twenty minutes. Lol. I never knew there were that many drinks there either. The moonshine stuff is all over the place.

You are too AWESOME!!! I can't believe the drink menu is that huge. If I had had any idea what I was asking I wouldn't have asked for pics! Thank you so much for all those pics, looks like I'm going to have to try the Bahama mama............
