I Am NOT a Bad, Bad Baby -- TR final updates 9/12

[KatMark]

Before I start this update, for those of you that missed it (it kind of got stuck in responses) I've started a PTR for Mark's and my September trip. Here is the link: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=3302619

So we had just finished lunch at Chefs de France and were on our way to our next adventure. However, we stepped outside and we started to feel a drip here and a drip there. And before you know it, it was a full blown downpour. We got our ponchos on in the knick of time, but it was blowing in all directions so we dodged into the shop in Canada to get out of the rain. It eased up so we stepped outside and the skies opened again. We dashed into the theater to see O Canada, which the girls had never seen:















It was then time for our Soarin' FP+.









Our Soarin' flight finished, it was time to listen to The Land:















Continued in next post

 

[KatMark]

We still had some time before we had to go our next park, so we went to see Nemo...and this time I was there for it:























We went to see the manatees





We still had some time, so we went to another attraction that the girls had either never seen or it had been a very long time:



Yes, we were going to see Stupid Judy.













I know Mary took a nap and Cayley may have snoozed as well.

It was now time to head to our second ADR of the day before our second park of the day. But where were we going? And would we like it? Find out in the next post.

Great Update Kathy !! I haven't been to see Stupid Judy in a while either , I am thinking it should get on our Sept bucket list. It's long but if you are tired ans hot is a welcome rest !! No clue where you are going next !!!!

 

[MaryAz]

Back from Alaska and all caught up. You are doing a marvelous job on the report!

Awww your other "baby" is leaving the nest! Those are adorable anniversary photos of the two of them. I'm not looking forward to being an empty nester. If I could bribe some of my kids to move back in I would but I don't think their spouses would appreciate that!

Speaking of adorable, the girls were so cute in their little outfits for the Character Spot. I don't think I've ever seen a 5 minute wait there. I'd definitely make a stop for that short of a wait.

I gotta say that I'm not completely shocked that the Frozen dolls sold out so quickly. If people are willing to stand in line 3+ hours to see those gals then I'm sure there's an obsession with the dolls too. Bummer that didn't work out. At least Cayley got the perfect present!

Isn't the Ellen ride where you go for a nap? I thought it was.

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Oh My Goodness - Cuteness overload is rught! Adorable CS pics! I don't think I've ever managed to see where CS is

I know this is silly, but I love Stupid Judy! I like to surprise a newbie with the way the theatre turns into a ride.

Oh, and I'm so happy the girls found their Anna and Elsa dolls

 

[tazdev3225]

I would have had to meet you at Living With the Land, O Canada and Soarin would have had me green and sick. I cannot do IMAX of any kind.

I like the Nemo ride but I love the pavilion more. I can spend a great deal of time there.

Stupid Judy, love that. Unfortunately I never make it past the dinosaurs. My DGS Jay said I embarrassed him last time we were on it - I was snoring and people were looking. I laughed and said I wasn't the only one.

 

[MonsterWDWmom]

Livin with the Land, Soarin, Nemo, Ellen.... I want to be in Epcot NOW! Thankfully you didn't add Spaceship earth into that list or else I would have book a plane ticket

 

[oopsiDAISY]

Wow, you all made some good use of your Epcot time...getting LOTS of fun in! Soooo, Universe of Energy was never a favorite ride growing up. With that comes confession time... my DH and kids have never been on it, and I have not seen it since it became Ellen's Energy. I always LOVED the last part of it...just not the first two hours or however long that whole speil on energy saving/ tree hugging stuff lasts.

And those outfits the girls wore!!!! Your lunch at Chefs looks so delicious... We love Chefs de France. So much so, that we requested one of the recipes, and love to make it on special occasions (Beef Spare Ribs). Yum!

 

[ddstratton]

Hmm.. Somewhere along the way I missed an update. Glad Cayley got her doll - those suckers go quick!!!

You guys sure fit a lot into your Epcot day so far!

 

[eandesmom]

what a fun and productive Epcot morning!

I LOVE the girls outfits today and some seriously cute photos. for finding Anna, (and then Elsa too) I am glad to see they aren't too old for dolls yet.

I've never thought of that room as being the "back" room, it's the only room I've ever been seated in and I love it, as you can see outside, it feels so much more french bistro to me. I always assumed that one was requested more but I've no idea! Lunch looked really good, I wish I was having that today.

I've still never seen Ellen, or the movie in Canada so really enjoyed my virtual tour.

 

[Chicago Mo]

Yes yes yes Cuteness overload!!! then ended with "stupid Judy"

You had quite a AK Busy day! you think i am bad!!! Phew! that was a lot!

always rains in Epcot. I have no idea why.. love the fact you always stop for amazing drinks. and Mary's Apple Looks AWESOME! Girls look as if they were enjoying theirs as well!!!
So who has the better soup? BOG or Chef's???

love your report!!!

 

[TheMaxRebo]

ah - rain always makes things, um, interesting ... but at least you got to do some things you might normally skip. And good job managing those massive crowds for O Canada

Looks like you hit up a number of fun rides in a short period of time which is good.

I'll guess going to MK, but just a guess

 

[WDWaddictt]

Sorry it's taking me so long to post. I can only catch up on Dis on weekends, so sometimes I am far behind.

The girls are so cute.. and those outfits... adorable!

Great pics with the characters.

Elsa doll.. yahoo! That is all my daughter wants when we go in September, so hopefully we will be able to find one.

We didn't have the greatest experience at Le Chef's last time we went, so it will be a while before we go back. It wasn't horrible, so we will be back one day just not anytime soon.

Great updates, thanks for sharing!

Great pictures, fun update!

I don't think I have ever done the Canada show either, come to think of it. On this solo trip I am going to make sure and take plenty of time around the World Showcase, and I want to hit all the country's movies / attractions so I will be sure and see it.

The girls, as always, are too cute.

We did Ellen last year, too, because we hadn't done it in a while. I don't know why they don't put in something else (but I think that about Stitch, too ). It's a nice place, though, to take a snooze and rest for a while.

 

[mickeystoontown]

Another fun update! In all of our trips to Walt Disney World, we have never seen the show in Canada. Don't you have to stand the entire time? How's John supposed to nap if he has to stand?

 

[MeMom]

Lots of fun in Epcot! Next time I check in on this report, I will be very, very close to Epcot. See you on FB, and I will probably check in here during a nice Florida afternoon thunderstorm next week when we are all cozied up in the room.

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

Can you stand the cuteness here?

The first order of business was more coffee! We had time before our first FP+ selection, so we were headed to Starbucks.

And the most awesome thing in the world happened. We lost Cayley for a minute.

Wait, what?

So what was it that had her screaming and making us run to follow her?

Ah. Frozen merchandise. Now I get it.

Enjoy cuteness overload:

I sent the girls with Mary and I ran back at this point to Mouse Gears to try to get another Elsa doll. Was I successful?

Man, they are just printing money with those dolls.

This is officially the new best picture on the DISboards.

Yes, we were going to see Stupid Judy.

I love your name for this. I'm going to petition Disney to change this to Stupid Judy's Energy Adventure.

 

[JPFamilyMom]

What a great start to your day, you ladies got a lot done.
Have never seen O Canada, I suspect that will change on one of our next two trips.
My boys love Nemo and they love to watch the dolphins after, but where do we go to see those manatees? That would be cool to surprise them with on the next trip.
Love their before Soarin' picture

Oh I cant wait to see where you all are headed next

 

[JulieODC]

What a great Epcot morning -- you guys were very productive!!
