Four Brits hit the world the TR! ***Finished***

Do you all have cake and brownie mixes or does everyone make them from scratch??

(i don't like butterscotch...just a picture!)
 
Chocolate bought easily in the USA- Lindt truffles (milk, peanut butter or white but def. not US chocolate) peanut butter M&Ms

British chocolate- Flake, milk chocolate Cadbury's, or Maltesers (my mother just got back from the UK and I ate 2 big boxes in 2 days :sick: )

English chocolate totally blows away US chocolate. I think it's because of the milk produced by cows :teacher: which starts by the grass they eat and all the rain you ge over there. That's my assumption anyways!
 
Jo, I just read your last chapter and I'm sending a big hug! :hug: I've had my share of WDW breakdowns, too. I think we all have. I'm sorry that you had so much trouble with your eye. Have you been back to the doctor since you've been home? I honestly can't tell that anything's wrong from the pictures you've posted. I have to admit, I don't think I'd be able to walk around Animal Kingdom in August. :sunny: It's just soooo hot there! Ugh! You're not the only one who likes FoW. We see it almost every trip. Your safari pics are really good! Did you walk the tiger trail? I always have to see the tigers when we go to AK... and the gorillas!

Looking forward to more!!! :surfweb:

ooohhh, I love cadbury's chocolate!! And lindt, lindor balls..................mmmm. Now I'm hungry.
 
Hey Jo,
Just catching up as we were away for the weekend.

Your eye really doesnt look that bad, not sure why people would stare. Oh yes I know they are RUDE!!!

AK is always so hot we never make a full day there.
Cute pics. DM did a great job editing in SImba. CAnt belive Disney didnt put it in.
Glad you accomplished alot in the heat.

Wow we love butterscotch but have never seen that flavor here. Can someone send me some butterscotch cake mix? Yummmo
 
So I asked her nicely if she’d move and she did but her BF said loudly stand there, block their view :eek: Why??????

because 90 percent of the population are morons!!!!! :sad2:

okay....i'm up through the end of your day 2. almost caught up! i love how your girls really hug the characters in the pictures.....so cute! and that dance show looks really cool! i love watching anyone dance (well, anyone that's good at it, that is!) do you know if that was just there for the P&PP?
 
Great update. Love the Buzz pics. That guy at the fireworks obviously is not a DISer or he would have known that is a lynch'n offense. I have no idea who that character was. Are you sure it is a character? I can see that ladies Tr.

I dressed as a princess for PPP and children kept coming up to me for pics. So I had them form a line and did some autograph. It was so magical.:lmao:
 
HI JO!! :goodvibes Did you golf today...must have since there is no update.:rolleyes1
I shopped yesterday, golfed today, I will try and do another update soon, well if I didn't have to keep reading updates from other people I may have time to do my own :rolleyes1 :rotfl2: LY/MI Amy :hug:

We do but I make them from scratch, well when I get around to baking cakes :rotfl2:

I think you're right it is something to do with using full fat milk which makes it so creamy and lovely, are you saying it rains alot here :rotfl2:

you're such a tattle tail!!! :tongue:
I know :rotfl2:

My eye looks bad again at the moment and all my friends comment on it so I thought I'd take a photo of it and it doesn't look bad :confused3 And definitely weid about missing Simba out :rotfl2:

They do give the characters a big old hug don't they :rotfl2: I think the dance party was only at the P&PP!

:rotfl2: at the fireworks man and yep that was a character Arabella Wisp, so funny about getting the kids to queue up or are you pulling my leg? :rotfl2:
 
And what was your's again? :confused3

Pepperly Marsh. Actually it would be Kali Marsh. Kali was my first dog. My last dog was Pepperly, with her name it would be Pepperly Snowberry.
 
DM - great job on the Simba photo! Much better than the PhotoPass.
 
When we returned to our room there was a message saying we had 2 parcels waiting so whilst Dave and Ellie went to grab towels and refill our mugs Jess and I went to the business centre to see what we had :yay: One was a parcel from DisneyLandMama and it was 2 mistymate fans that she had bought from Walmart for me :thumbsup2 And the other was a little croc called Felicia who we were adopting for our holiday :goodvibes

After a refreshing swim the girls had a little bite to eat :lmao:

We had made these at Goofy’s in DTD 2 days ago, Ellie had a rice crispy head dipped in milk chocolate, smothered in sprinkles, drizzled with caramel and cookie crumbs added to the top :sick: The CM had not realised Ellie wanted half sprinkles half oreo crumbs so added 2 lots!!!!! Jess went for a much healthier crispy head dipped in chocolate just with sprinkles and chocolate :rotfl2: You’ll be glad to hear they took another 2 days to finish!


Once washed and dressed again we caught a bus to Epcot, the plan was to get TT FP’s if they had any to use on the way home but that was a silly expectation really and they were as we thought they would be all gone. So we walked to the International Gateway and caught a boat to Spoodles, this was the first stop. On our way David turned around and said “We’re not meeting any mad DISser’s tonight are we?” :rotfl2: now up to this point we’d only briefly met Zorylee, little did he know what would happen later in the holiday :lmao:


We were sat within a few minutes and I was quite impressed, I thought the atmosphere was great and loved the whole feel of the restaurant :) Overall the food was nice but Jess and I found it too spicy, we had the Kabobs and wish we’d asked for the sauce on the side, the waiter said to David about his meal being spicy (which David said it wasn’t!) but never warned us :confused: I had the Crème Brule which was nice, Jess was meant to order off of the adults menu but really wanted ice cream and this is what they brought her……….

Oh yes we had to shout at Felicia as she thought the oil dipping bowl was soup :eek: :rotfl2:

P1000710.jpg



Once our tummies, well David’s and Ellie’s, were full we had a mosey around the Boardwalk, I love this area so peaceful, relaxing and pretty. We wandered a few shops, grabbed a box of doughnuts using a SC for our breakfast tomorrow, watched a great entertainer who balanced a ladder on his chin and just chilled out! We decided to go check out the mini golf near the Swan hotel, for those of you who don’t know just walk between the swan and dolphin and keep walking, it’s just the other side of the road! Well the fun one (Fantasia Gardens) had a 30 minute wait which we decided was too long but the tough one (Fantasia Fairways) was a walk on but the CM said it was really difficult, would take 1 ½ hours, really tough etc etc well I really wanted to pull David’s PGA card out and say do you think we’ll find it hard :lmao: But I didn’t :lmao: Anyway we decided that this it was too late to start that course and we headed back. We decided to catch the bus to MGM but took a few photos on the way……..

Felicia really wants to stay here one day!

At MGM Jess traded pins, she chose a Lion King one and the CM told her that it was a keeper and not to trade it as it was a limited edition and only 1000 were made, well done Jess :thumbsup2

We were home to CSR by 9pm watched a little Tele before dreaming of which water slides we’d be zooming down tomorrow :goodvibes

Yeah Jess!!


We were home to CSR by 9pm
How do you do that? (or is a a time zone thing? ) I won't let everyone go home till they run us out of the parks! (of course, that MAY be why I'm encountering a little resistance about another trip........nah! )
