I've never been to New Orleans but since I love NO Square at DL, I'd definitely be interested in touring. (Funny how so many things in my life have a Disney frame of reference!) Those beignets are looking good. It looks like they need to serve a bib with those with all that powdered sugar. You ate alligator??You are brave. Thanks for sharing that update.
That Beauty & The Beast pin is very cool - I've not seen that one.
Showing your guns to Mr. Incredible, that is hilarious. Looks like a great exchange.
Very nice photos of the B&tB stage show.
BTW: I love the red velvet cupcakes from Starring Rolls. They can be a meal replacement as far as I'm concerned.![]()
awesome New Orleans pics.... Alligator sounds great to try. I am adventurous when it comes to food. Danielle(IHeartDDuck) and I talk about going on the Amazing Race all the time... She would do all the high stuff and I will eat all the weird food
MMM that Beignet looks so yummy.... I love the ones they have at PO French Quarter. MMM good.
your pics of Bell and the Beast are beautiful... It's so wonderful that Disney has interpreters for all the shows.... I had no idea they did that Thanks so much Courtney for that info. I think it's fantastic for the hearing impaired to be able to enjoy WDW shows too.![]()
So glad you had such a great visit to New Orleans. Whether anyone agrees or not, that quote on the sign sure is funny!
Haha, you got dissed by Mr. Incredible!! Too cute. You look like you're having so much fun with it, and that's really the whole point, right? Oh and I don't know why Frozone finds it so funny. He's got quite the pipe cleaners going on there.![]()
Beautiful pictures of NO. Sounds like you had an amazing time. I don't know if I would be able to eat Alligator. Maybe if they just told me it was chicken and then told me the truth after I ate it.
I like the picture of you and your "friends"
Can you imagine owning a beautiful home like that in NO but never living in it??!! Ahhh to be rich!!
I love that pin. It's beautiful.
That is great that they have interpreters at all the shows. Just another way Disney does everything right.
Looks like a really fun M&G with Frozone and Mr Incredible.
Love the New Orleans pics - they take me back to my youth and Mardi Gras! And you got beignets at the same place as me!
That Belle pin is one of my favorites ever. It is so so pretty.
I like the Sorcerer's Hat too. I wish there wasn't a stage in front of it for the last umpteen years.
Your sister is either going to wear out her Magic Band or lose it in the next 25 days.
Glad you enjoyed your trip to New Orleans. We went ther BC (before children) and loved it. Though we had so much to eat and drink after a week our bodies were all "no mas!"
Gah beignets. I just drooled all over myself.
New Orleans is on my list of places to visit, so thanks for posting pictures!
I'm definitely encouraging my Mom to pin trade on our upcoming trip. As she's mentioned plenty of times, she loves pins, and I want her to get in on the action!
Isn't it a little hot to be eating a churro? Dude, it's never too hot to eat a churro.
Glad you had a great time in NOLA! I miss living there so much. There is really nowhere else like it! The beignets are my weakness. I could eat a thousand of them.
The house owned by Johnny Depp... I'm think that must be the LaLaurie house? Pretty cool, especially since it's the center of the new season of American Horror Story.I knew Nicolas Cage used to own it, but didn't realize about Johnny!
On to the update...
I have a confession...I too love the hat!I think it's cute, and I guess I only visited once without it being there so I don't have that emotional attachment to seeing Great Movie Ride down the road when you walk into the park. I also liked the hand and wand over Spaceship Earth, but I better shut up before the diehards show up with their pitchforks.

Sorry, gotta say I laughed at that pic of Frozone laughing at your arm muscles.Classic!
Nice title, reference to my (not) favorite song.
Look at you in the little Pocahontas outfit! I think it even had beaded fringe along the shorts. That might have been the day you met John Smith. And the year we went to MVMCP when you were sick. Always a trooper, getting sick on the bus but rallying and going to the party. You must have been 4?
You all caught me in a moment of weakness suggesting a Thanksgiving trip. I think I am getting soft in my old age. I guess I should consider myself lucky you only asked for POR Princess room and not the Poly! I am the uber-planner and to book a trip only 5 months out over a holiday is unheard of for me. But at least we got a few good ADRs. But it's a short trip so not much time for eating! Churros on the run!
I am SO excited to see the Osborne lights again. You are not going to believe it when you are standing there and they flip that switch. It is overwhelming.
I am excited for Gary Sinise and the CP too. CP is so beautiful. NPH has a lot of nerve to come the day after you leave!
Next up is finding Christmas shirts to wear or make! Don't forget to mark off your countdown calendar every day!![]()
Awwww Courtney thanks for sharing that touching back story. I'm sure your Grammy would be glad that you are spending this Holiday at one of the happiest places that you could be. That adorable photo of you as a little tyke is precious. That was hilarious that PUSH yelled at your grandma for speeding on her ECV.
I'm glad that you were able to get one of your favorite ADRs for Thanksgiving dinner. Hopefully no one tells you to hurry up you brats or they're telling Mickey!
Whoa, wait, there are special characters at the MVMCP?? Obviously I have done no research for that.
I know you'll enjoy your Thanksbirthmas!
BTW: We traveled on Christmas Day before as a family for the same exact reason. It was much cheaper to fly out on the major holiday and there were plenty of available seats. It was one of our favorite memories.
What a wonderful reason to go to Disney and I am sure that your grandma would love to know you are there.
Sounds like it is going to be an amazing trip with a lot of things that you will be able to see for the first time. Hope you get to meet all the characters on your wish list.
Hope you have a wonderful time at your Thanksbirthmas!!!![]()
Aww Courtney that was a beautiful remembrance of your Grammy. Obviously given the journal you found earlier, she was a big Disney fan, so I have no doubt she'll be delighted that you are all spending Thanksgiving in the Most Magical Place on Earth. I too remember trips with mine back in the day and they are indeed wonderful memories.
Yay for Birthday celebrations at Disney!
Your plans look great. How cool to have a Thanksgiving dinner at Prime Time. That should be even more fun than normal!
If you've never seen the Osborne lights before, prepare to have your mind blown. If you have seen them before, prepare to have your mind blown. They are fabulous. Do yourself a favour and try to be there for the turn on... sunglasses optional.![]()
Hey Courtney, I hope this isn't a stupid question, but just in case, are you attempting a FP+ for BOG using MyMagic+?
If you are, try this link... Be Our Guest Lunch
Again, if this is the one you're not getting any results from, my apologies, but I figured it never hurts to make sure.![]()
