One More Trip to WDW (Beach Club) Before the Baby Arrives!

Loving this trip report! All the pictures and videos are fantastic. I especially enjoyed you family dancing! Fabulous!
 
Just joined in. Congrats on the baby. You guys seem to be having a nice and relax time.
 
CAJUNWDWFAN,

Awwww! I love your video of Jambalaya!! I mentioned to you over on the concierge thread that I'm from New Orleans. This video made me cry. It was fantastic. Cherish the memory of your parents dancing in the MK!
 
I'm loving your report. So many Magical Memories already. Love the video of your parents dancing in Frontierland.

Congrats to you and your wife on your baby.

The Cajun in your name caught my attention. I'm from Baton Rouge, but my Dad was from Mamou.

Welcome. My family is from New Iberia but we live in Lafayette. Geaux Cajuns!
 
Sorry everyone I guess my post was that popular and I ran out of bandwith on my pictures. It should reset in a few days. In the meantime I think the links to my videos still work. you can check those out. When my photobucket account resets you can all look forward to the next day in my trip report.
 
Congratulations and just in time for Father's Day!

So today we have scheduled Hollywood Studios. WE had breakfast reservations at the Captain's Grille at the Yacht Club. Mom and Brandi decide to stay in, can you see the re-occuring them. So dad and I at breakfast at the Grille. They offer a buffet and you can also offer food off a menu, which is what my dad and I did.

WE headed straight to Pixar Studios to Toy Story Midway Mania. I have experienced this attraction before my dad had not.

My first time actually seeing Mr. Potato Head. I always went through the fastpass line.

Here is a video of the loading area.

After finish up with Midway Mania we rode several other rides. I can't remember the order but they include: Star Tours, Rock n roller coaster, One Man's Dream, and Muppet Vision 3D.

One thing I had to do was catch Mulch, Sweat, and Shears. I always had the bad luck of missing them on my previous trips. I knew their songs but dad had never heard them. He's now a fan.

Check out the video of their performance.

Since we were in the area we decided to eat at Fairfax Fare.

Chili Hot Dog is good!

After this we head over to watch the Beauty and the Beast Show. It was good but just not my thing.

Now it's almost time for our dinner at 50's Prime Time Cafe.

So this concluded our touring of Hollywood Studios. We took the boat back to the Beach Club. As an added bonus we watched Holiday Illuminations from the boat dock. It was really cool to see.

Next Day #5, Epcot and the Candlelight Processional Package!
 
Love the lights at HS! The videos brought back great memories.

CAJUNWDWFAN, I gotta ask because we are staying CL at the BC in August. Did ya'll find the time to take advantage of the food offerings in the lounge for breakfast or during the day? At night?

We usually visited the Concierge Lounge in the mornings before leaving for the parks and in the evening when returning. We usually tour the parks all day and never return to the hotel for a break. But my mom and my wife both would sleep in late so they enjoyed the lounge a little more than me and my dad. They were around the resort more than us. ON the day of our arrival we got to sample the afternoon offerings which were good. We just never were back at the hotel in the afternoon to try some again. I would say if you like to lounge around the resort, the lounge can be very benificial. If you are one to be at the park from open to close maybe not so much. But the times we did go, like I said early morning and late night, it was really convenient. And you can beat the adult beverages. :)
 
Thanks! Dh and I are going to the pin convention at Epcot in August and I am planning to take a break mid-day and go back to the BC lounge during the day to check it out. And, we will definitely eat breakfast there.
