**Continued from previous**
We were about half an hour early, so we decided to look around the gift shops. We started with the one on the 2nd floor. I knew I still needed to find some postcards, so Fiancé helped me picked one out for Brookie (belongs to BrooklynnsMommy and MeMom) and Kristen. For Brookie, I got a Tinkerbell and her friends and for Kristen, I got one that has a pic of all 4 parks. Neither of them knew I was sending them! The CM who checked us out was oohing and ahhing over our Just Engaged buttons. She thought it was so cool that a couple our age would want to celebrate in WDW. Well DUH! Where else would I?! Okay, I didnt say that to her, but I was thinking it.
With postcards in hand, we headed downstairs to the 1st floor gift shop. We LOVE this gift shop. I found the shirt that I had seen on Sunday at the MK and decided to buy it. Yall will just have to wait to see it until Kristen and Is July TR! Ha. I also saw some really cute swimming trunks that we just might have to get for the little guy once we get there. I didnt want to buy them now because I was unsure of how much hell grow by then.
While I was buying my shirt, Fiancé walks up with a coconut. I said to him, What the heck are you doing with that?! He said, Im sending it to my mom and dad. I laughed and said, How are you going to send that through the mail?! Then, he shows me that the coconut is already stamped and ready to be mailed! All we have to do is write his parents address and away it goes! So, of course, we had to get that too! The CM gave us a permanent marker and I tried as best as I could to write the address. Let me just say, it is hard to write on a coconut! Never did I think I would ever say that sentence. HAHA.
After we gave the CM our coconut to have sent out, it was time to head to Kona for our ADR!! I literally ran up the stairs. Fiancé made fun of me. I was excited to finally have some Tonga Toast! We were seated right away. Our CM came up and took our drink orders. He was seriously the nicest guy ever!! He helped us out since we werent entirely sure what we can get with the dining plan. While he was getting our drinks, we took pics of our view:

And soon our drinks came! We shared the pressed coffee pot and both had orange juice as well. Heres a pic of the amazing pressed pot. I really recommend it!:
In no time, our main meals were on the table. Of course, I had the Tonga Toast. Fiancé had the two eggs your way, which is served with home fried potatoes, a biscuit, and choice of ham/bacon/sausage. I took one bite of my Tonga Toast and heard the angels sing. HAHA. It was SO good. I ate just about all of it!
After we had to be rolled out of there (HA!), we made our way downstairs. I wanted to sit on a bench by the lobby waterfall to write my postcards so they could be sent out. Fiancé took the camera and took pics to pass the time:
I had no idea he was taking this! HA:

Fiancé loves this store:
Fiancé made his way back over to me and I finished up the postcards. We handed them in at the front desk to get sent out. Then, we made our way outside to walk to the TTC.
Love this guy:
Fiancé loved this:
We headed out the doors and started on the path towards the TTC. We were excited to start our park day!
