Giraffes, Zebras and Santa OH MY 10 days at WDW Dec 2010 updated 2/15

[MaryAz]

Great Day at the Studios, Mary and an even better room! Love the view and all the animals around there! When we were staying there we had a room with a similar view and I refused to leave the room to go to a park - too much going on right outside the balcony!

Thanks!! I know, it was hard to tear ourselves away!!

Your view reminds me so much of our Kidani view from Christmas 2009. It was amazing! I really thought the master bedroom was beautiful too! I'm so glad you had so many animals outside of your balconies!

 

[MaryAz]

Score on the room - big time! Love all the animal action! I love Kidani!!!!!! Nothing like a 2 hr nap to shake out the crabbies!

I hope dinner and illuminations goes well!

I know!! We do too! Dinner and Illuminations were awesome

 

[MaryAz]

Sounds like you guys had fun at Hollywood Studios. I had forgotten how bright and colorful the Beauty and the Beast show is.

Wow! I don't blame you for any blubbering you did when you saw your view and all of the animals. Can't wait to see what Jeff thought about it.

We did have a fun morning. It is a great show! I was just so happy!

 

[MaryAz]

What a great view!

I love the pictures of the Beauty and the Beast show. We missed it last trip and it is on my list of things we have to do this time.

I can't wait to hear about Garden Grill. I really want to try it but have been outvoted. Chip and Dale are so cute, plus you get to see Mickey in his overalls. The food choices scare me a little though.

Thanks It was really a good show, both girls enjoyed it! GG review coming up-maybe tonight. Chip and Dale are my favs

 

[MaryAz]

The Beauty & the Beast show looks really nice. I've never been to it. I would love to try it out next time.

Yay for your new room with the awesome view!!!! I can't believe that many animals were hanging outside of your window!

We really like it! it was really quite amazing!!

 

[MaryAz]

Wow the view from your new room is amazing! I can see why you guys were so excited about it.

Great pics of the Beauty and the Beast show, we have never seen this but hoping to one day in the future.

Looking forward to more

We were really excited!! It is a great show.

 

[MaryAz]

I can't believe the food wasn't good at 1900PF. We've always had good meals there. So sorry.

Man, it WAS cold that night. I know my DW would of been wanting to leave MVMCP too. But at least you still got to see the Christmas Parade.

Devine!!!!!

Your view from your NEW room was AWESOME!!!!!!!!

Maybe it was an off night, thanks I am better at cold than my Hubby-he would have left waaayyy before She is cool! I know, we were very lucky!

 

[MaryAz]

Gorgeous view from your room, Mary! I would have been plopped in a chair watching those giraffes the rest of the trip!

I know you of all people would appreciate it!!! Those giraffes were awesome!!

 

[MaryAz]

What an amazing view from your room...I'm not sure I would have left

It was awesome!! Are you guys doing savvana view for your trip??

 

[MaryAz]

That view... that is what I want in a one bedroom someday!

That was our Christmas spulrge-the 1bd. It was awesome!

 

[MaryAz]

Did it remind you of your walk to get theer too?? We loved the master-even looked up some of the stuff to possibly buy They were out and about almost all the time

To be able to stay the full two weeks at AKL we had to do value view....so it looks like it will be parking lot view Jasmine will definitely miss sitting on the balcony overlooking the pool this trip that's for sure!!

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Do you mean the 400 plus marathon to reach our rooms?

We Dec 22nd
Part 2

Jeff arrived and tried to check out the view but it was pretty dark out there... We made our way to the bus stop and off we went to Epcot. This was our first time at the Garden Grill and we were excited!!

Please excuse the switching between flash and no flash, Dale was up first

He was follwed by Chip

Up next Farmer Mickey

The server brought the sald-which was good but had egg in it...and the main course. I thiught the turkey and potatos were good but did not try the fish. The food was ok overall but not great

Next came Pluto who was the best of all. Somehow my lens cast a shadow on the bottom of these......

And then he started totally loving on Cayley

It was very cute. The character interaction here was really fun. Cayley wants to go back during our Sep trip. After dinner we wandered a bit and then found a spot for Illuminations.
