[orangetiggs]

cornado was a lovely resort we just found it too big. we hardly ever used our mugs as it was such a long walk to fill them up!!

For our anniversary trip next august we are staying in POFQ and we havent stayed there before so I'm looking forward to that

Oh I love the theming of CS, but you're right, it's way to big!!

 

[keenercam]

I'm so glad you'll be staying at POFQ. We stayed at Port Orleans last summer and I LOVED it. I especially enjoyed running at French Quarter -- it is so picturesque and gorgeous!!

 

[DisneyBrideToni]

Wow the Cornado is beautiful!!!! Day three was exciting but it involved shopping and that is always exciting! Especially when it comes to Macy's!!

 

[figmentfan814]

I totally agree about Coronado, we stayed there once and it is huge! You can tell it was designed for the conventions that are held there.

For shopping, I love hitting the malls in Orlando!

 

[Donald'sGirl]

I love hitting the outlets in Orlando! They are the best! Day 3 was very exciting!

so sunday 31st August was our welcome dinner day.

We started the day having breakfast and then we headed to epcot to ride the rides!! We did test track and robs mum hated it!! we have the photopass picture but the cd is not here yet.

We love test track and robs dad loved it as well. we didnt do mission space as that makes me so ill so we headed to soarin! Robs mum doesnt like hights yet she enjoyed this after she got off!!

We then decided to head out to walmart before the dinner which was at half five to pick up a few last min bits for the wedding. I also had my nails done at the CSR spa which was really nice, they last for ages as well. Tomorrow I get to go to the spa at grand floridian that one of my bridesmaids paid for as a gift.

Our welcome dinner was held at chef mickeys as I wanted the characters there and they were!

my sister with donald

it seems every pic i have of my mum at the welcome dinner she was eating!!!

the three of us, me, mum and my sister amber

and of course we got a cupcake

We ended the night with Robs cousins (they had only just got married and ended their honeymoon in orlando so they could be at our wedding), We went into magic kingdom to go on all the rides.

I must admit I loved monsters inc laugh floor, Simon and kelly (robs cousins) went the night before and said we have to go on it and both nights simon got picked on it was so funny. We didnt get to go on space mountain as itwas shut due to a fault. Big Thunder mountian in the dark was super!!! We love that one

Splash mountain was good as well. We got to see spectromagic as well which was great and wishes.

Wishes is my fav fireworks it always makes me cry!

We ended the night around 11pm heading back to crs on the bus.

Chef Mickey's is such a blast with a group; I know I had such a great time when we went there the week of our wedding. I never thought about getting signatures from the characters; now I wish I had for the scrapbook. That's great how his cousin's were able to plan their honeymoon around the time of your wedding!

 

[orangetiggs]

i habe so many autograph books!! I have two from our wedding trip alone!! I'm like a big kid with the characters!

 

[jackieleanne]

Looks like you had a great time at Chef Mickey's I loved it to when we went.

 

[Donald'sGirl]

Sarah I am dying to go to Chef Mickeys! It looked like so much fun! What a great place to have the welcome dinner!

 

[orangetiggs]

i have already planned to go back to chef mickeys on onr anniversary trip!!

 

[lov2b@disney]

Sarah, chef mickeys looked fun! And I too am a big kid with the characters!

 

[Chilly]

Sounds like a real fun evening. I haven't been to Chaf Mickeys yet.

 

[orangetiggs]

you must do chef mickeys, we did it for my birthday when we went for our planning trip and we loved it.

We shall do it again next year and when I plan our 5 year vow renewal we shall do it agian!

Up next is the rehearsal day and our trip to Hooters!

 

[Racey]

thanks for the update - it looks so bright and cheerful in chef mickeys.

Now i've seen other adults getting autographs I think I may do it on my wedding trip to make it that little bit different
