Everything but Disney Day 14 Thursday 27th October 2011 BBB and MNSSHP
Our last full day in Florida had arrived.
We had another later start and breakfast on our balcony
DD and DH had a swim whilst I packed. I usually pack the last night but couldn’t as we had MNSSHP. It was actually less depressing doing it earlier – will do again.
We stopped quickly at Fedex on the 535 to print a coupon off. Only 11cents inc tax for 1 A4 sheet in black and white. They had self service machines – DH sent the printing online – you get a code to enter into the machine and put your credit card in. Or you could put a usb stick in the machine.
We then parked at DTD Westside for an early lunch at House of blues. Have eaten there before – was ok – wouldn’t have lunch again. Very expensive cost $32 inc tip plus $2 restaurant.com coupon. Restaurant.com coupon saved $25 so bill should have been $57 for a burger, sandwich and kids meal. Kids meals were very pricey and DD hated the pizza – was a flat bread type. Also they charge extra for fries like rainforest cafe which irritates me!
We then drove over to DTD marketplace.
I’d made DD a bibbidi bobbidi boutique appointment at 1pm. She has been twice to the one in the castle but was her first time here at the one in the world of Disney shop. We got there 12.50 and checked in. We did have to wait to check in and then about 15 mins for DD to be seated – a family with 4 girls had just checked in so it obviously took time to book them in and seat them.
It is the same inside as the castle one.
The fairy godmother in training was very nice with DD. DD chose the princess bun hairdo again. DD arrived wearing her own dress. I picked the middle package for her, the ‘crown package’ – hair, nails and makeup. Cost $58 inc tax. They get a bag to take away with the makeup, face jewels, comb, nail polish and a tiara and mickey clip with the princess style and a sash. DD finished about 1.45pm.
The dad of the 4 girls was paying when we were – his 4 girls had had the full package – dresses, wands etc – was over $1000! He was smiling though! I actually think the middle package is very reasonably priced for what they get – DH thought it was a bargain compared to the other bloke.
We didn’t have a photopass card this year so didn’t take DD to the studio for pictures like usual.
It was perfect timing for DD to be in the princess parade and they gave DD an invitation and told us to wait outside the front door of the shop.
