That's so Photopass. And so is the "sisters" pose they had you do. I thought I quoted it, but I didn't. They've made us do that before too and I call it the "sassy twin pose"
While we had a really good meal at Jiko, I'm not sure if that's the norm. I've heard from quite a few people recently that their filet was overcooked, and the meal wasn't great.
Josh loved the food at Hoop De Doo too, I think he ate his weight in ribs
Wow, I didn't realize how far behind I had gotten!
I wouldn't worry about what people think of you based on which resort you stay at. I tell my kids all the time, there are people FAR better off and FAR worse off than we are. Even when we are staying deluxe, there are people staying club level, or in a Walt Disney suite, etc…they are not my concern. We also like POP a lot and have stayed there many times. Anyone should consider them lucky who gets to actually go to such an amazing place. I grew up super poor and never took a vacation until I started working and paying for it myself. I think it makes it even sweeter
Your wall pictures are ALL so adorable! I think you got them all…even ones I never heard of!
I am so jealous that you got to meet Paige O'HaraIt looks like she's an amazing artist, too.
That Jiko dinner sounds super disappointing. I'm glad they took it off your bill.
And OMG, I was LOL at your experience at Boma
You're going to have to tell me your secret on Buzz…i totally suck at that one
N's purple wall selfie game is really strong!! Glad you made him do it
Your meal at HDD sounds like it was great!
Your sunset pic from the boat is gorgeous!
Cute PP pics at night at MK! Love the 2 lantern shots
We've had people tell us to kiss recently, but maybe they did a quick check and saw us wearing wedding rings and assumed it was safe, because it seems to be much less frequently done than it was a few years ago...
We headed back to the MK on the boat right around sunset.
I have never been to the Hoop-De-Doo BBQ. It gets raves and I know a lot of people love it. It doesn't seem to be my cup of tea.
I have heard of Chef TJ- was he at the Poly (Ohana) awhile ago?
This is absolutely stunning!!!
Fun night at MK.
Love both of the lantern shots.
That is a cool border for the Mine Train ride. I haven't seen it before.
Not World's best Splash ride photo!
That's pretty cute! I love all the things Westjet does, especially their Christmas surprise videos!
I love that photo! I hope they do it again next year!
OMG-that's insane the difference in food!Pinocchio's was a perfect example of the allergy kids' meal being a better option. I ordered the kids' allergy pizza with pepperoni. I got a side of fries, and applesauce, and a tiny bottle of water. I paid about $7.50. N got a regular adults' pizza, and ordered an extra bottle of water to drink. He paid about $15.
I had more food for half the price!
LOL!! We'd make quite a team!! You should stuff the pinata with travel sized Baileys to put in our coffee!
N to the rescue!
Fortunately, I was planning to get a bottle of Pellegrino or something similar anyway, so I recovered quickly. I got a salad (though I didn't finish it because some of the greens looked questionably like spinach, which I can't eat) and the dressing was super delicious. And I NEVER dress my salad. Nathan got the flatbread, which was bigger than he expected, and also delicious. Then Nathan ordered the halibut, on Ty's recommendation, even though he doesn't often order fish when we go out, and he said it was excellent. I got the tuna because it was the easiest to make for my allergies. I'm usually wary of ordering tuna, so when he asked me how I wanted it cooked, "medium rare? medium?" I went with medium. That was my only regret because I think it would have been better medium rare. Otherwise, it was an excellent dish. For dessert, I made N order the key lime pie because Ariane had such a good experience with it, and he liked it. I had a cup of tea called "harmony," which was peppermint and chamomile, served with raw sugar cubes. It was such a lovely dinner! For me, it still doesn't top some of our very favourite dining experiences, like Tiffins, or le Cellier, or even Sanaa or Boma. But it was a really awesome, classy, but still leisurely meal, and we wouldn't hesitate to go back again. I'd also recommend our server, Ty, as she was really great, knew the menu intricately, and treated us very well!
Mary Poppins is my jam, and this bag is beautiful. It's almost as miraculous as my sketch backpack. This is a super terrible and expensive addiction, and I NEED to stop...like, NOW...but I'm glad I didn't stop before making this bag my baby.
I'll save the lengthy review, but I'll just say that our food was good here, but our server, Robert, was super strange and not fabulous. It may have just been this day, but he was slow, barely said a word to us, and had to come back to re-confirm our entree order even after our "appertizer" shrimp cocktail had already hit the table. He kept asking whether we'd moved tables, because apparently there had been a mix-up with our table. He didn't say much at all...until he saw my little maple syrup packets...and then he flipped out and was SO excited. It was night and day. He kept kind of yelling and drawing attention to the table. So weird.
He tried to test me and stop for a snack a few times on the trail, and I had to pull him back and get his head back in the game. They give you instructions and safety information, and then you're off! The trail ride was a great break from the parks, and I had a lot of fun! I was only slightly saddle-sore the next day, so I consider that a win! Every so often, the leader would have to stop and wait for Lincoln to catch up with the horse in front of us. The horses were old hats at the trail ride thing, so it's a great experience for beginners because there's not much you really have to do in the saddle, and it's almost impossible to screw it up because the horses are kind of on auto-pilot. I had a good time, and was glad to have booked it!
