Behind, as usual. :rolleyes: You captured some really wonderful pictures of the parade - and what awesome interaction with the Queen of Hearts! :thumbsup2

I hope you had a great time last night! :goodvibes

We are thinking of the wishes dessert party for our July trip. Thoughts??

We LOVE this. It is expensive, but it's a nice, relaxing treat! It's really nice to have a reserved seat for the fireworks and not have to be concerned with holding one on the sidewalk. It's a decent view, not the best, but not bad. The chocolate covered strawberries are amazing. :laughing:

Sadly, I didn't go have dinner with my "ex" colleagues on Friday. I have been doing way too much and my body is starting to tell me. I haven't been feeling really good for the past week. So I slept a lot on Friday. And I had to go to Montreal to pass an exam at the University, and when I came home I went back to bed. So I had to skip it. Even though a few of my friends texted me, messaged me to say they had missed me. And I did to. But there was no way I could get there. Oh well. Another time.
 


Once the parade was over, I decided that I was going to walk a bit. I think I seperated from my mom for a bit. She might have gone shopping while I walked around. Or she may have gone back to the hotel. At this point, I'm not quite sure.

Anywayz, I decided to catch up with Captain Jack. He was "ok" looking. Let's just say he photographed better. He might have had a bit too much rum the day before as he did not look quite as handsome as during past trips.

I then wandered around back to the Emporium and ran into the end of the "Move it, shake it" party. I love that party. I think it's brings a lot of life to the park.

I had no schedule and decided that I didn't want to leave the park yet.

So off I went to check out one of my fave attractions:

I was really excited to check out the new queue! I had seen a lot of pictures, so it was not a total surprise. But I loved it!

I was really impressed with the instruments and the organ. I did keep a few people back to play with it a bit. Sorry people, but this kid would like to play for once hehe

It was then time for me to go and visit the ghosts. I did try to take some pics. They were mostly unsuccessful. But I know that being said, if I don't post them, you'll wonder what they look like. So here they are. Warning... you may not be able to make out what it is lol

And boy did I love the new hitchiking ghosts!! The new effects are SO cool! I rode twice (once alone, and once with my mom) and got 2 different effects.

As I walked out, I tried to find the ring they put. You know how before it was just a circle left from a pole and people kept saying it was a ring. Well I was sure I had seen a picture that they had put a real ring. But I couldn't find it.

Attention!!

I have a 2009 Passporter to give.

If anyone's interested Message me your address and it's yours ;)

Happy holidays!
 
The holiday season must be busy for everyone as no one seems to have seen my latest update hehe
 
I've seen it! Just too brain-dead to comment. I love the update to the hitchhiking ghost!
 
Have you checked out my TR yet? :upsidedow

I'm sorry I haven't. I've been swamped. But I just finished my 12 to 16 pages essay for one of my classes. And this week is gonna be hell at work, so at night I'm just gonna be on the dis ;) So my holiday season will be dedicated to reading TRs.... and updating mine hehe
 
That will be really nice if you can do Christmas! We will have to catch up in summer of 2013 - and maybe Nikki can join us.

Maybe Hope too!!!! :rolleyes1

Not 100% sure on anything as of yet, but right now we're debating between October and summer of 2013...so you never know! I would absolutely LOVE to join one of your awesome DIS meets!!!

July 21, 2011I don't remember everything we bought, but I do remember that my mom and I bought gifts for my friend Hope, and for her new little boy.

We got all of our gifts shipped to the resort, and decided to go try Pollo Campero. I had a chicken sandwich while my mom had a salad. I also remember getting a vegan cupcake. I really liked my meal. My mom says hers was ok. I would definitetly go there again. The place was packed though, but we did end up finding a spot that was somewhat quiet.

It seemed to have been a quiet day, but I don't really remember having a quiet day during that holiday. It is only an illusion hehe[/COLOR]

THANK YOU so much again for everything!!! You & your mom are awesome!!! :thumbsup2

When I saw that you liked Pollo Campero, I said "EWWW!!!" to myself! :lmao:

I'm not sure if we've talked about it already or not, but we tried it on our DTD day because EoS was PACKED! We didn't have a good experience. I wasn't thrilled with my cupcake -- but the icing was super good! My DH and I both got the chicken sandwich and I think we got some type of chicken nuggets or grilled chicken for Luke. I'm not sure, I'd have to check my notes! All I remember is that I ate my sandwich because I was literally starving but wouldn't eat it had I not been pregnant & starving. I just didn't like the dressing. I should've asked ahead of time what came on the sandwich. If they would've put lettuce and mayo, I would've been fine with it :rolleyes:

I completely know what you mean about thinking you had a quiet day, but you really didn't! I felt like that a lot after coming home from our trip!!! I read over my notes & it doesn't seem like we did much, but I felt rushed the entire trip. Next time, we're going to have some more down-time and pool time!!!

We are thinking of the wishes dessert party for our July trip. Thoughts??

YES!!!! Do it, do it, do it!!! Now I know we've talked about this! And you know I highly recommend it! :goodvibes

The night we went to MK, it was PACKED! You seriously couldn't walk without tripping over someone or saying "oops, I'm sorry" a thousand times because you stepped on someone's foot or ran into them with the stroller! It was so nice to be able to sit on the Tomorrowland Terrace and enjoy dessert, the MSEP, the new Memories Castle Show, and then Wishes!!! I found it to be very peaceful. No, it's not the best place in the world to see the parade or take pics, but we loved it!!!

The food at the Wishes Dessert Party is amazing!!! And Brook is completely right -- the strawberries are DELICIOUS!!! I text both her and Stephanie and told them I ate at least 6 for each of them! :lmao:

They have a good variety of desserts and you can also get ice cream and drinks (lemonade, tea, water, and maybe one type of pop). I ate so many plates of desserts, I had no room for ice cream! And you know I'm obsessed with ice cream, so that's how good the desserts were!!!


Anywayz, I decided to catch up with Captain Jack. He was "ok" looking. Let's just say he photographed better. He might have had a bit too much rum the day before as he did not look quite as handsome as during past trips.

It would be SO much better if they just had Johnny Depp there! :rolleyes:

The holiday season must be busy for everyone as no one seems to have seen my latest update hehe

I saw it!!! I just haven't written a reply! It's been so late at night when I've been DIS-ing (or too early in the morning??) Usually I DIS between 3-5am so I don't reply thinking I will probably either ramble or say something completely stupid! :sad2:

I'm planning to catch up sometime next week. Hopefully things will calm down here after the holidays.
 
I'm sorry I haven't. I've been swamped. But I just finished my 12 to 16 pages essay for one of my classes. And this week is gonna be hell at work, so at night I'm just gonna be on the dis ;) So my holiday season will be dedicated to reading TRs.... and updating mine hehe

It's ok, I totally understand. I've been pretty swamped too, which is why I haven't really updated in a few weeks. And obviously the kids will be crazy this week!
 
Merry Christmas to you all!!

I am very thankful to be able to share my wdw memories with you.

I wish you all the best on this special day.


And who's stuffed? I love Christmas food hehe
 
Well guys. I finally figured why I had walked to Main Street and back to Frontierland. It was because I had a Fastpass to see Mickey!

Unfortunatly, I don't have my Photopass cd with me. It will have to wait a few days.

But let's keep going.

After the Haunted Mansion, I decided to go and watch the castle show. Yes, even though I've seen it about a dozen times, I still love it. But it doesn't mean I would mind if they came up with a new one. It may be time for a change.

On my way I took a pic of a quick service that I love. Well not the food (it's ok you know) but I love the seating area since it's quiet and dark.

Once the show was over, it was back to the hotel. I was getting tired. I had been in the sun for a while. As I walked back towards the park entrance, I stumbled upon the 3 o'clock parade. So why not watch! But first, some pics of the windows.
