i'm in your t-rex dinner sounds like it was fun!
Welcome! Thanks for joining!i'm in your t-rex dinner sounds like it was fun!
Definitely. Let's just say, if I were Stacey and I had to come up with a list of my own "Must Dos," making a Mickey Mouse Rice Crispy Treat would be #1.That rice krispie looks amazing...Im another one who will have to try it out next trip!
Thanks! And the gelato was definitely amazing.That gelato looks amazing! Im loving all of the Coronado Springs pics
Aw, I'm sorry about your un-Disney day. But I'm glad I could add a touch of Disney magic to it.I had a long undisney work day. I really needed a Disney update. Thank you!
It was wonderful. We were a tiny bit hesitant because, as I mentioned before, we're Deluxe snobs, but we found that CSR was just as nice as the Deluxes.Coronado looks really nice. I'd like to stay there one day.
I love the theme as well. Everything is so colorful. Plus, the Ranchos section reminded me of BTMRR. They should play a "Hang on to your hats and glasses, folks, 'cause this here's the wildest RESORT in the wilderness" every time you exit the bus.Coronado Springs looks so pretty! I love its Southwestern theme.
We were lucky because the bus stop wasn't that far from our room. The only bad part was walking to and from El Centro. Thankfully, we didn't have to make that trek too often.I know what you mean about the long hikes at Coronado. When we stayed there it felt like the bus stop was miles away.
Yay to finally "really" being at Disney. I agree, DTD doesn't really count.
CSR is beautiful. The rooms were quiet and relaxing, the main pool was HUGE, and the transportation was excellent. Seriously. It was the best bus service we've ever had. That said, I think I'd still rank WL (I've stayed there twice and loved it both times) ahead of CSR on my favorite resorts list (The Poly is #1). Would I hesitate to stay at CSR again? No. But there's just something about the Deluxes that makes your vacation feel extra...well, deluxe.Glad you're finally at Disney World!!!
Coronado Springs looks so beautiful! After reading your update and seeing the pictures, I seriously contemplated changing my October reservation from WL to CSR!
LOL, I love how afraid of those giant white birds you are! I don't know how you are ever able to eat anything outside at WDW!
You'll love CSR. It's a great resort.Oh my goodness....I LOVE all of the pictures of CSR!!!! I am getting really excited about staying there!
Wahoo for being on your way to Magic Kingdom!!!!
That's awesome. You should get that blown up and framed.I think it takes a special kind of Disney nut to get excited over the smell of water and road signs.
That being said, this remains as one of my favorite pictures I've ever taken:
It's a very pretty resort. I mean, I expected it to be pretty, but it was even more gorgeous in person. It was so bright and cheery...Perfect for a summer vacation.EEEEE Disney EEEE Coronado Springs! SO PRETTY! I have never been there... but we dropped people off on my Mother Daughter trip from the Magical Express so I saw the outside. BEAUTIFUL! Your camera takes lovely pictures by the way - love the palm tree one. That gelato looks fantastic... yum. I want it.
I can't wait for the next update
Yep, that lake is HUGE too. You can typically rent boats and stuff there, but, for some reason, the marina was closed during our stay.Coronado Springs looks so beautiful, I had no idea there was a lake behind it. I love teal and coral together too, so I'd love to stay there someday!
When I think of Disney, I think of the Disney water smell. It's heaven.Ahhhh, Disney water... it really is a bit of heaven, isn't it?! My family thinks I'm crazy whenever I bring it up, but so glad that there's so many of us out there that can relate to that magical smell!
Laila is amazing. Every year I say I'm going to buy a bottle, but I never actually do.A few quick points:
Loving the owling - youre not weird, youre unconventional and I love to sit weird ways too!
Laila...My absolute fave. DBF bought me the entire set last time we were there in Feb and I have put it on the birthday list to get again. There's no other scent quite like it - well, except perfune de agua de disney!
The gift shop looks so festive - cant help but grin when you see that donkey! Im a fan of teal/coral combos too - its just so fresh looking!
and finally, I really want to curl up into that hammock now. Cant wait to see pics of the rooms!
