Girls Trip Revisited-- Final Day (Part 3) -- August 14

[goofy4prez]

This does NOT surprise me at all. I actually told my husband just the other day that I bet you would be moving to WL.

Kathy,

I hope when you made that bet you had a decent wager. I got a hold of Disney by phone just before 11:00 pm this evening and made the change over to WL and courtyard view. One of these days I will stick with the CSR and not change it.


P.S. I told Carolyn a sure way to scare you and Mark away is to invite you to join us for dinner at the Whispering Canyon. (for what it's worth, with them only offering the skillet I won't be back there anytime soon.) Now to stop hijacking your thread and wait for some more great pictures and reports.

I LOVE the pictures! The French Onion soup looks DIVINE!!!
The New Fantasyland is absolutely ADORABLE!!! the tangled lights are fantastic!!! LOVE following you around on your trips.. the girls are so adorable.

Plus i like your gymmies (from the people pusher) What kind are they?!?! I CAN'T WAIT TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[FloridaDreaming]

Awesome update!
The HM pics turned out impressively. I don't bother taking pics in there anymore. Just black fuzz. I don't think the happy haunts like me very much.

I really need to get to BoG. Oddly enough, I keep forgetting about it.
And I tend to gravitate towards the restaurants I know that I am going to enjoy. But I have had 2 new Disney dining experiences this week. Both successful!

Yay for Beach Club!!! Love that place! I do think that the Villas are is need of some love. But I'm not sure I've found another resort that I enjoy more. I'll revisit that thought one day when I finally get to stay at Poly.

Okay, ready for more girls trip fun.

Hi Kathy - I'm finally caught up.

The little princesses looked so lovely in their dresses (and do I spy a Vera cross body bagg?) for your BoG meal. The Plaza lunch looked amazingly yummy as well. (Of course I notice the food before anything! )

Even at my age I still like a good sword fight! Good job!

Congratulations to Andy for his head coach job! You are a proud mom and rightly so!

Have a great Friday!

It looks like a great first day in the parks. I'm glad you all got to experience Be Our Guest (again).

Yay!!! You found your pictures! Reporting is always so much more fun with photos.
Looks like you are all off to a great, fun start.
Never eaten at Raglan Road. Seems we always hit EoS at DTD. Usually in a hurry to shop til we drop.

Ok time for some more pics, Here are a few more before I switched to the "good" camera.

In line for Ariel Ride-excuse Avery's eyes



Big girls got to ride together

Kathy supplies the ride and lunch photos. These next ones are with the "good" camera. Sorry for the blur is some of the BOG ones

Girls really enjoyed their food-though Cay could have shared with me. It was then back to BC for swim and Zzzzzzs

Wonderful pictures…

But then again, I don’t see how you can take a bad picture with any of those young ladies as part of the subject.


This may be one of the most fun pictures I’ve seen in quite some time…

Aaaaaaaa… the Grey Stuff…

I’ve heard tell of it, but never actually seen it before now.

We “intended” to try BOG in June, but without a dinner resie and not being able to quite swing the timing for a lunch appearance…
Well, maybe next time.

 

[javamom]

Great BOG pics!! I am a bit disappointed that I couldn't get a dinner reservation, I really wanted to "try the grey stuff."

 

[annmarieda]

Love the pictures of the girls, Mary! So many fun memories for them, I am sure!!

 

[WDWaddictt]

Joining along and all caught up...

Looks like so much fun...

Beautiful pictures of your sons wedding...congratulations!

Aaaaaaaa… the Grey Stuff…

I’ve heard tell of it, but never actually seen it before now.

I was wondering what exactly that "Grey Stuff" is made of so I googled it and found a tutorial on Youtube (gotta love google!) It looks super easy to make ..... I might have to try it!

 

[2xcited2sleep]

All caught up! Looks like a super fun trip so far!!

I don't think I've ever seen that courtyard by Pirates either. Must investigate!!

Ahh...the PeopleMover/TTA... love that ride. Except that dark stretch. That freaks me out a little.

Can't wait to try Be Our Guest in October!! And be back at the Beach Club!

Hi ~ Really, Really, Really glad that you are continuing the story of your "Girls Trip". I have been a long time lurker and read all your reports. Recently, I have been more vocal. My name is Jane, I live in Groveland MA which is about 40 miles north of Boston near the NH/ME border.

Great report and pictures! Looks like everyone had a good time. I loved Raglan Road and I'm getting hungry looking at those food pics.

May I ask what FB group you and Connie (OOPSIE) are referring to? I am always looking for people who love to talk about Disney. I just recently found a DIS group specific to October 13 and am really enjoying following that too.

Great wedding pictures and Congratulations on getting a new daughter and Andy's new job.

Hope you have a nice weekend!

I'm a busy man and now you have to go and post something else that is going to divert my attention.

J/K. I already have it saved under subscribed links. Love, love, love your reports. I'm a Kathy Trip Report junkie; I just can't get enough.

 

[KatMark]

That's the bad thing about solo trips, no one to sword fight with at the PoTC dump shop!

Great pictures and ride choices!

You could always be like my husband and just start one with some random kid.

You got some great shots in the Haunted Mansion! I quit taking pictures in there because they never turn out

I was surprised they turned out without the flash.

I think we were at Disney a week or two after you and I see some things I missed.... I really need to start paying attention! Where is that courtyard at Pirates? Did you go by it while you were in line?? I've never noticed it before! Looks very quiet.

If you walk in as if you are going on ride and they start lining you up and having you wind around on the "right" side, it is right near the front of the building before you go through the turnstyle on the right hand side in the corner.

Oops, posted too soon earlier! I really, really want to eat dinner at BOG soon, but if I can't get a ressie I'll settle for lunch again.

The ducks in the pool at BC are adorable!

I do that all the time.

I hope you get to BOG for dinner soon. We have yet to try lunch.

I am so glad you found your pictures cause you got some great ones!!!

Thanks, Ann.

I never knew there were so many little nooks that were out of the way. That one near pirates looks very relaxing. Not a smoking area though, right?

I don't think it's a smoking area...I didn't go back there though.

Looks like you got a great room! Too bad your luggage got sent to the wrong resort. CBR BC... at least they knew the name had BEACH in it.

They told us it happens all of the time with the luggage between the two resorts. Really? You can't figure out the difference when it says BC on the tag?

Yay!! I am so happy to see another TR by you, Kathy! Off to read

So happy you are here, my friend.
