Well, I don't want to give too much away, but I'll give you a hint! It was !
As for the mouse quote - they are doing a lot of refurbishment and they have loads of quotes put up - we took MANY photos of them!

Kathy, I need to apologize for not replying this time, but I fell ill on Friday during our trip and it took me a while to fully recover, even though I tried hard not to loose too much time with Mickey!
We LOVED, LOVED, LOVED the resort and spent so much time there! Thank you for encouraging us.
Tom took so many photos and as soon as he has edited some of them I am going to write a review on your CSR thread! He made some great panoramic pics, so I really want to wait for those!

Krispy Kremes!!! Where is the nearest one to WDW?

Loving the update and pics

There is a Krispy Kreme store in Kissimmee. Will you have a car when you next visit? If not - the Hess opposite DTD carries them too, but I just LOOOOOOOOVE them hot off the belt! Oh, my gosh - doughnut heaven!
Off topic - your calendar is on its way! FINALLY!!

Thanks so much for sharing! I'm loving your report so much!

Thank you for your kind words! I'll start with the first reviews real soon!

Karin - Johnny & I are enjoying the chocolates! Thanks again!!!!!!!

I am glad you do!! We are hoping to try our new coffee tomorrow It took me a while to unpack after returning Sunday in the late afternoon and going back to work at 7 the next day!
It was such fun meeting you! I love the photo the bar tender took of all of us - by the way, did you find a few photos of his shirt on your camera?

Great updates Karin !!! I started my TR this week !! But as my internet is down I am limited to the Libray for updates!! I just posted pix of Sunshine Seasons !!!!

Great news! I'll go and sign up for your TR right away. I can't believe how fast those vacations fly by! But it's kinda fun to relive some of them in friends' trip reports and dining reviews!

No apologies. I'm sorry you got sick. I've not been on here much as my brother is in ICU in critical condition. Please do a "separate" review if you don't mind...this prevents me from having to redo the CSR thread too often!

What part of "turn it around" did he not get? I'm so sorry you got sick, hoping you're back to feeling your normal cheery self!

I promise to do a seperate review! for your brother! (I sent you a PM)

He was FUN!!! We kept laughing about it for the rest of the week and I still do!
Yip, I have recovered from feeling sick and am back to work - no fun! Why does Disney time have to fly by?

 

[dizneeat]

Okay, I need to fill you all in on a few more details. Sorry about not updating while we were still at WDW, but I got sick on Friday and we had to skip EMH at Epcot and cancel Il Mulino! Means that I must have been REALLY sick to cancel WDW food!
But we did a real good job the day before!

Feb 18

We started our day at DHS, but it soon filled up and we decided to take a Friendship to Epcot.
We arrived before 11am, so WS was still empty - great photo op!

and started that day's food quest at

this cart between England and Canada

Next stop ...........

Liberty Inn and on to

Yakitori House and on to

Don't worry, we took our time to stop and smell the roses and we shared our food!

Before venturing into Futureworld Tom made a stop at this cart in Canada

After spending quite some time at Futureworld and Mousegear we headed to

We had cancelled our reservation for the afternoon tea at the GF in favour of this!!

We then went back to the resort to relax for a while before our late dinner at the California Grill.

Before we went to the

we headed to the MK and enjoyed Wishes from Main Street.

Feb 19

We had some stuff out of our fridge for breakfast before we headed out to DHS again, but that day was really hot and around noon I started to feel dizzy and sick (my bet goes for sunstroke) - we still did a few rides, but then we decided to head back to the resort for some air conditioning.
By then I started to feel real sick and we picked up some Pepto tablets which made me feel even sicker, !
The only food I had were some grapes (the only thing that appealed to me and not made me feel sicker) from Riverside Mill.
Instead of going to EMH at Epcot I spent the evening in bed - sleeping off my sickness, while Tom snacked on things out of the fridge and worked on the computer.

Feb 20

Travelling day! We left the resort early - I felt much better and we decided to keep our ADR at

We spent the morning at the MK and by 2pm we left to have a late lunch at

........... hm, I wonder if you could guess it

........... well, I don't think so

........... we ate at

........... wait for it

Yip! Fellow Austrian Wolfgang Puck won the race! What a surprise!

After that we were off to the airport, boarded our plane and took off at 8.35pm - we were both so tired that we slept right through dinner service and only woke up for breakfast.

I can tell you it was NOT yummy at all, LOL

But the snack on the short flight home was good!

Now we've been home for a little more than two days and what is new here.

ALL our ADRs for the first part of our summer trip (Aug 14 - 26) are done - we even changed the resort from All Star Movies to Saratoga Springs (1 bedroom villa - can't beat Disney.co.uk which offers a 48% discont on villa resorts AND free dining) - we got the welcome letters from DCL for our back to back cruises (Aug 26 - Sept 2) and we changed our resort for the second WDW part (Sept 2 - 11) of the trip from Pop Century to Old Key West (Disney.co.uk too!!) and upgraded to DxDDP - will be able to make my ADRs on March 7 - can't wait!!!

Up next - the start of our February vacation!

Karin so sorry to hear you are back at work.

I kept my eye out for you, we never did see you. We left only a day and a half after you arrived, so the chances were probably slim. We loved our Il Mulino experience and cannot wait to hear what you thought about it.

Oh man, I posted at the same time as you and then saw you had to cancel Il Mulino... Bummer. Next time right!!

It's not fair to feel bad at Disney...

Yip, it sucks to be back at work! But Mickey asked me for more money - so what choice did I have?

Feeling sick I could not have cared less about Il Mulino, but now I am trying to figure out a way to fit it into our schedule during our summer trip - we have 21 days of free dining to conquer (9 of them being on the DxDDP) but I am sure I can sneak it in somewhere

 

[TigerKat]

That's my girl!!!!!!!! Cancelling GF tea for The Ditch!!!!

 

[disneyfav4ever]

Sorry you got sick, that's no fun. Glad you made it home safely!

 

[RockinDisney]

Glad you are back home and feeling better and planning your next trips... Andfor Tequila over Tea

 

[angelmav]

Looks like it was a great trip (other than the illness). Cant wait to hear the in depth reviews!

 

[Stefy]

Glad you are back, looking forward to your reviews. That little taster has left me wanting more

Unfortunately, neither me or DF can drive so we wouldn't be able to get the ones from Kissimee. Maybe we could try to get some from the one near DTD.
