I was actually lucky enough to see the World Premiere of the movie in Hollywood and walk the red carpet for Enchanted. The cast was there along with guests such as Helen Mirren which was a treat. The after party was geared for the children and wonderful. The movie was right up there with the other Princess movies. Will be a classic

Wow!! What a wonderful experience.

O i dont like wine lol and i hate water do they offer you a different drink?

I don't drink wine, water or coffee (The drinks mentioned on the menu). It was no problem for me to have fruit juice instead though

 

[Ware Bears]

Oh, bliss

 

[kevankiki]

Looking at your photos, it seems like the menu changed very slightly since we ate there. Do they no longer offer the Cinderella Slipper to adults?

Wow that does look fantastic - I just wish my DD was more into the traditional princesses. If she were, I think it would totally be worth the money for the meal and the experience .

Yes definitely different to when we went as well. All looks lovely and I agree Raci worth every penny but its a shame if the Cinderellas slipper isnt offered to adults as the adult dessert doesnt look as nice as the childrens.

 

[Raci]

No there was no option on the adults menu for the slipper although I'm sure if you asked for one it would still be ok.
I didn't mind not having a slipper as I'd had one the year before when they used to do them in Walts. The slipper here seemed smaller than the one I remember though.

The choc in pastry was really nice though so I didn't mind in the slightest.

I also wanted to add, when talking about the body size and if some seats on the attractions were larger to accompany the larger people, the tour guide may have taken it the wrong way.

Over weight Americans are an issue here in America. Some people do not like to talk about it while others need to talk about it. Perhaps she thought you were making fun of over-weight people? I do not believe you were and I believe you were asking something that the tour guide could have handled in a diplimatic way. It's a small world in DL California is being closed for several months to redesign the flume and boats because they keep getting stuck in the water. According to Disney, this is due to people being larger than they were back when the ride was originally opened. Americans on average have gained more weight since the 1960's.

Thanks for your answer pokey,

I am of the same opinion like you. I just didn't expect this from a WDW tour guide who is supposed to get in touch with people from all over the world. After all we paid 199 Dollars for the seven hours tour. I just expected them to be trained or prepared better. (When touring epcot she mentioned that they would have their own "Street of Gibraltar" a small water canal between Marocco and France - no comment on this

Except that one day of course we had another magical 13 days

I have been on 2 WDW tours and 3 Disneyland tours. All the tour guides were excellent except for one. I do not know if this was because she was new or she was just bored with her job but she seemed to have no expression or sense of humor and she made our group feel like we were being rushed!

I am glad to hear that the other 13 days of your trip were magical.

yes thanks for the second link, sound was much clearer, i was going to ask who was the one in the black bodice with blond hair, but then said she was from the black cauldron. what about the other one in the light blue dress, not alice the other one??

 

[DLPdaft]

Fabulous link, I loved that !!!

I think the other girl in the pale blue dress is Wendy, from Peter Pan.
