After a few more rides, it was time to catch the Monorail to DTD. We needed to get to our breakfast at the DLH.

We headed to Goofy's Kitchen, and the twins got to meet Pluto first!

Some Food Porn!!

The characters we saw were........CHIP:

Then GOOFY:

Lastly, BALOO:

We went back to Disneyland, did some rides & then took in a show at the Golden Horseshoe Saloon. Billy Hill & the Hillbillies is a very funny, musical show that we just love.

We had heard that around 2pm daily, that Alice, the Mad Hatter & the Red Queen played musical chairs at Coke Corner, so we took Addy & Anthony over hoping to get them involved. We were sitting when we saw them come up.....so the kids headed up & got to play.

They had a blast!! Addy fell at one point & Alice and the Mad Hatter were very good with her. Anthony ended up tying for the win & their reward was getting to put all the tables & chairs back in place.....lol

Here they are all together after all the fun!!

Late afternoon, we headed to DTD to have a Dis Meet up!! This is when I got to meet Vicki (my angel who took care of our Candlelight Processional ADR), her hubby & son.

They had just finished up at the House of Blues, and we were on our way to the Rainforest Cafe.

Mike, Betty & Anthony:

Nick & Addy:

Me & Shyann:

Derek & Michayla:

Ty's self portrait:

We got Derek the Volcano for his birthday!!

That ends day three!

Had to make a small adjustment to our ADR's today. I was looking thru the menus & realized if we wanted to have the Ooey Gooey toffee dessert at the Liberty Tree Tavern, we would need to do a lunch. (didn't show on the dinner menu, which is served family style). So I moved our LTT to Weds. late lunch at 2:30pm, cancelled our Plaza Inn dinner that night. On Thursday, our resort & MVMCP day, I cancelled the LTT dinner & added the Plaza Inn for 5:20pm. I'm really hoping to get a Be Our Guest ressie for this night!!

I actually liked the idea of ordering what we wanted vs the family style meal.....so I think this worked out much better!!

Loving the TR so far. Even though I read the actual one, it's nice seeing some of the photos again.

That photo of all of you under the welcome to Disneyland sign reminds me so much of ours in 1996. Except the park was a lot different back then....

Wow, where was this taken?? It can't be on Harbor......all the motels are missing. Is this the entry where DCA ended up going in (so looking up from Disney Way) or maybe towards the parking garage??? Love it!!

It is on Harbor, but I think farther south. We are facing harbor. I think my Dad (who took the photo) is standing almost on the curb with his back to harbor. Once you walked past that sign, you were in a huge parking lot where DCA is now built. You can kind of see the Disneyland Hotel in the background if that gives any indication.

It's probably where they have a parking entrance on the DCA end (facing Disney Way where Motel 6 is on). It's the road our taxi always takes bringing us into the DL area from the airport. Really awesome pic!!

Day four, DL day two started with me taking Anthony & Addy to the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique. Anthony was first.

Then it was Addy's turn.......

During the time we did the boutique, the rest of the family was off riding rides & the twins were getting some attention from Pluto in ToonTown.

 

[DizNee Luver]

We did a dinner package for the World of Color at Ariel's Grotto. It was a wonderful dinner and look at this tray of desserts!!

The World of Color show is amazing!!

This show is wonderful. The music, the fountains, the water spray with movie clips, the colors....everything makes this show stunning!!!

End of day four!!

 

[Trentmom]

Really loving all your pics

Musical chairs looked like a lot of fun

I love Addy and Anthony's makeover at BBB!!! That mohawk is awesome

Addy looked so pretty

Cute pics of the twins with Pluto in their minnie dresses..pretty little girls

 

[DisneyStitch626]

I love the look on Addy's face in the mirror of Anthony's reveal. So cute.

I just love World of Color. I told my friends they HAD to try and see that while they were there. I really hope to be able to see it again during the girls trip. The Pirates part is my favourite. I get chills when the theme song comes on. I love it so much!

Great photos of a wonderful show!

Ha-HA!!! I was going to pull that picture out as well! It's the best!! I don't think any WDW restaurants have it and I'm SOOO sad!!

I think that was an excellent choice Laurie. There is still a Turkey Dinner on the lunch menu if someone wants it but this way you get the Ooeey Gooey Toffee Dessert!!!

Loved the BBB pictures. Addy's face in the mirror is priceless.

 

[BDL]

The World of Color looks awesome.

And I liked how they "bling"ed out Anthony's mohawk. Might have to look into doing that for myself on our upcoming trip.

Thanx Kelly!! Both kids loved doing the BBB!! I missed seeing Pluto with the twins, so glad dad remembered to pull out the camera!

Addy was just amazed with the whole process.....wish we could do it every trip!

I hope they make it to a showing, it's really worth the effort & time to see it!! (I love the pirates part too!!)

I'm glad I was looking at the menus to realize that. That dessert was high on the list of desserts to try!!! I would have been really disappointed if we had gotten there & then discovered that!!

Loved the BBB pictures. Addy's face in the mirror is priceless.

Thank you......she was at the right age for all that magic & pixie dust, she bought right into the whole thing!!

It IS awesome, so if you get to DL, make this a priority~~you won't be sorry!!

They added color streaks & then big mickey head confetti & lots of hair spray!!!

Day Five, 3rd DL day found us starting out in ToonTown for the Morning Madness (early entry). They put on a little show and then head out to different areas of ToonTown for meet-n-greets.

WDW has gotten rid of their ToonTown which is sad........this is a really neat area to see all the details the Imaginears put into each land. It's so cheery in this section.

Derek was getting into the spirit of Disney.......lol

Doggie!!! (as Shy calls him)

The twins meeting Mickey for the first time (didn't go so well)

Doesn't this just make you happy!!

The kids got to meet Aladdin & Jasmine in the Oasis.

Pirates of the Caribbean:

Mike & I got the afternoon with just Anthony & Addy & we took in a little show mixing art & music called "Drawn to the Magic". The 3 artists draw their favorite character & then they appear towards the end of the show. 3 kids are picked from the audience & Anthony got picked for the "hero".

Woody was the hero & he got to keep the artists drawing of Woody, which he has hanging on his bedroom wall.

It was hot today, so we took them to one of the water play areas to cool off.

Next was Bugs Land & Flik's Flyers:

And Heimlich's Chew Chew!!

We really had a fun afternoon with just the 2 kids, but it was time to meet up with the rest of the family. The twins didn't have a good nap and afternoon, so I decided to just take them back to the motel for the evening. Most of the family stayed at the parks (but didn't take any pics) and Derek and I chilled at the motel with the twins. Thus ending Day 5.
