Happily Ever After Begins in WDW - Our Disneymoon TR - Updated 5/27

[Angela0917]

By this time it was around noon, and we were STARVING so I spotted Cosmic Rays and we headed over there for lunch. We both got a burger, fries, and the triple chocolate cake. It was very yummy! And the toppings bar was awesome!!! I think DH put every single topping they had on his burger!! For me, it was just mushrooms!

After we finished eating, I wanted to go straight to Fantasy Land because I could not WAIT to ride It's a Small World!!!!

When I was little, this was my FAVORITE ride!!!! My dad likes to tell the story of how when I was little he would take me on this, and as soon as it was over I would cry and throw a fit and he'd have to get right back in line and take me on it again!!

So here we are in line!!

And inside:

Just wanted to tell you congratulations and also how much I LOVE your PINK slip!! That's so pretty - I've never seen that, but I haven't looked in a long time either! I'll have to mention this to one of my best friends who'll be planning a wedding and tell her to do purple since she loves it. Pink rules though!

Congratulations again!!

After that, we just kinda wondered around and rode things that has a really short wait.

We loved the Haunted Mansion!

And of course we loved Pirates of the Carribbean! I was impressed with how much Jack Sparrow looked like Johnny Depp!!

Pretty sexy for an animatronics, huh?

We ended up in front of the castle again, and the Dream Along with Mickey show was going on, but we didn't stop to watch it, we wanted to come back and watch it from the beginning.

Excellent pictures, Angela!

Did you get any pictures of the triple chocolate cake? I like mushrooms as a topping too.

We were getting REALLY hot so when we camt to the Toontown Hall of Fame tent we went inside to cool of. Then I spotted the princess room and HAD to go get my picture taken with them. Ok, I had no idea this line was so long! I think we waited for like a 1/2 hour, which was longer than most rides!! And I swear, we were the only ones in line that did not have children. A little embarassing, but who cares, right?? Finally, it was our turn to meet Cinderella, Belle, and Aurora.

Cinderella asked us where we were from, so we told her Pittsburgh. She said "Wow, that's an awful long way to travel in a pumpkin carriage".

Next was Belle, she is my FAVORITE princess, so of course I was excited!

Matt, not so much. In fact, the guy in front of us was teasing Matt because I dragged him along for this little princess meeting.

Belle asked me, "Is this your Beast." Of course, I said yes. She said, "He's a little scruffy, like mine!" Poor DH!

Now Aurora was the weirdest of them all! She commented on our matching shirts and said she was thinking of getting matching shirts for her and Prince Phillip and asked me what she should have, since they've been married for so long! I was like, "Oh, I don't know." And she asked where I got my shirts from, and I told her that someone made them on ebay. "What's Ebay?" she asked. I was like "um, its a website that you buy stuff from." And she asked, "What do you use to buy it?" And I said "credit card". Well, apparently where she's from they don't have credit cards, only GOLD.

So I thought this conversation was over and we could just get our pictures taken, and then she starts again... "So what's a website, like a web that is made by spiders?" UGH! I just said sure, whatever. I was over this weird conversation.

She finally stopped asking questions and smiled for the picture.

After that, we went back to the bus stop to catch the bus back to the Beach Club so we could get ready for dinner! We were headed to Boma at the AKL! Yay!

Thank you!!! My mom and I actually dyed the slip ourselves! It wasn't hard to do at all! Purple would look very nice!!

Excellent pictures, Angela!

Did you get any pictures of the triple chocolate cake? I like mushrooms as a topping too.

Thank you!! I apologize, I have hardly any food pictures. I wish I would have taken more.

But, thanks to google, I found a picture of it!

It was delicious!

WONDERFUL PICTURES CANT WAIT TO SEE MORE

Thanks!!

Hysterial, I know! We left there thinking we'd only stop to see the characters that did not talk.

I feel so special! I wish we could of had a little DIS Meet... maybe next time! We did have a great time too!

I am off on my lunch break now for about an hour... when I return I hope to see a new update!! Just kidding...

 

[CdnDisneyLover]

That cake looks so friggin good. I will have to remember to go there when we (hopefully) go next year!!!!!!

Great job with the pics. LOVE IT!

 

[katiebelle21]

Cute shirts! But don't worry, I won't ask a million questions about them. I know what Ebay is!

 

[redlight]

The cake does look incredibly delicious!

 

[lspst8]

Ohh, yay for your upcoming disney honeymoon!!! Make sure you wear your "Just Married" pin!!! Where are you staying at?

Wow, your from Pgh too! Where at in Pgh?

I am so excited for our trip. I already have bought our Mickey and Minnie bride and groom ears off of Ebay. I told me fiancee he basically has to wear his top hat everywhere but the pool!

Right now we are booked at the WL, but I'm thinking of switching to the BC because we will be at Epcot so much. Your pictures of the BC make it look really great. We really have to make up our minds soon, but I know either place will be beautiful.

I'm from Greensburg, and he is from Monroeville. (So the airport is really far away from us!) We will be living in my house in Jeannette once we get married. We are all old-fashioned and aren't living together until the wedding.

Loved your character experiences .... we may be avoiding the face characters if some of them are going to be so strange. But Aurora would probably get a kick out of us, because my fiancee is named Phillip.

Can't wait to read about the rest of your trip. I love it!

I ended got my ears from ebay too, but I didn't get ears for DH. He would never, ever wear them!

BC was nice, and it was so nice being so close to Epcot! If you are planning on spending alot of time there, it may be worth it to switch. I'm sure Wildereness Lodge is awesome though!!!

HA! We met some other unmasked characters on our trip, and they weren't all so strange. Maybe just stay away from the princesses in Toon Town... it's not worth the wait anyways.

I just caught up on your trip report - you were a beautiful bride and had a very handsome groom, and how lucky that you could spend your honeymoon in DW! I may be wrong, but I did hear that the pools at the resorts do not use chlorine but an alternative chemical that satisfies the new "green" concept. Definitely something to check out for future trips.

Thank you very much!!! Oh, really?? I called WDW sometime last year to see if they used chlorine at Stormalong Bay since it's a sand bottom pool, and the CM that I spoke to told me that all their pools were chlorine. If they changed it, then that's awesome!!! I'll have to call and find out next time we go! I wonder if they would switch the waterparks too?? That would be great!

So we got on the bus at MK, and it took us back to the Beach Club, so we finally figured out where the Beach Club bus stop was! Here's some pics of the front of the Beach Club... beautiful!

We had dinner reservations at Boma at 5:55. We weren't sure the best way to get there, so we asked at the front desk, and they said to take the boat to Hollywood Studios, and then catch the bus to Animal Kingdom Lodge. We were running late, as I usually am, and the time we spent to take the boat to Hollywood Studios, then take the bus to AKL, took FOREVER. Seriously, almost an hour! We would have been much better off taking a cab. We didn't get to Boma until almost 7, which was an hour after our reservation time, but luckily they had a cancellation and were able to fit us in!

Boma is a neat looking restaurant, but in my opinion the food is just so so. I am a picky eater, but DH usually eats just about everything and he was not impressed. Since it was a buffet, we tried a bunch of different things, and my 2 favorite things were the potato soup and chicken nuggets.

I did get a fun drink that lit up though!!

I tried to get DH to finish my salad with mango dressing, but he didn't like it either.

Just as we were finishing up, our waiter brought us a special dessert!! awww!

It was delicious!

After dinner, I wanted to walk around the resort and check it out. When we were picking our resort for our honeymoon, it was a toss up between Beach Club and Animal Kingdom Lodge. After being there for Boma, I must admit that I wished I picked there instead. Not that I didn't love the Beach Club, but AKL was just so neat!! It was much quieter than the Beach Club, more more romantic, and the savannah was just awesome! Here's some animal pictures we got. It was getting dark, so the pictures aren't so great...

Hopefully our next trip to WDW, we'll get to stay at AKL!!!

After dinner, we got on the bus to Hollywood Studios, since they were having extra magic hours!

It was my first time there, I was really excited! It looked neat with the lights and everything!

I just LOVE palm trees!

We stopped for a photopass picture.

By this time, we were soooo tired! Remember, we had been up since 3:00 in the morning!!! So we didn't really do much, just walked around and checked everything out.

The only thing we rode that night was The Great Movie Ride, which was pretty cool. We went in not really knows what this was, and we walked into the movie part that is right before the ride and I got angry and left because I thought that movie was the attraction. As we were leaving, one of the CMs asked what was going on and I told him we were waiting cause I thought it was a ride! haha! He said "It IS a ride!" Ok, I'm a dork. We were already out of line, so we left and went got back in line. Luckily, the line wasn't that long! I didn't take any pictures of this, maybe we weren't allowed? I can't remember! I loved the Wizard of Oz part though!!! It was sooo cute! DH asked me if Wizard of Oz was a Disney movie, and I said no, it's MGM. But then I remembered Hollywood Studios used to be MGM.

Does anybody know why they changed MGM to Hollywood Studios?? Just wondering!

After that, we just walked around some more. We stopped for photopass picture by the Tower of Terror. We didn't ride it that night though.

Oh, and at some point that night I bought a Disney sweatshirt! It got really cold!!

After that, we went back to the resort to go to sleep. We were sooo tired. I even fell asleep on the boat.

Next up: Epcot & Dinner at Coral Reef & Cirque De Soleil!!
