I want to share the booklet I made for my family for our mini trip this week!! WITH BIG HELP and thanks from many VERY talented designers (DISigners) on the DIS!!!
Hello Everyone!!
Page 1 - Cover Page, art from some wonderful DIS-igners from the DIS board!!
Page 2 - Details about our arrival day, Magic Kingdom to see what has been unveiled in the new Fantasyland! Well come back for a lovely dinner at the California Grille and then at least the diehards in the family will return to Magic Kingdom to do the rides until 3AM!!
Page 3 - Details about Bay Lake Tower, Dh and I havent stayed at the Contemporary since 1989 and the 2 youngest girls have never stayed there! So I copied general info on this page...
Page 4 - This is the Dinner Menu condensed for the California Grill Restaurant at the Contemporary. Weve been here several times, last time December 2010. I had the steak and DD18 had a huge Sushi sampler. Everything is fabulous at this restaurant and you cannot beat the view with a 10 ft pole!!
Page 5 - This begins day 2 of our mini-vacation - As you can see we will have breakfast at Chef Mickeys! LOVE it!! Best character interaction with the big M himself!! Theres a little show and the food is awesome. This is one of those buffets where there is a huge selection as well as chef-custom prepared items.
This page is actually 2 files I downloaded from some of our favorite DIS-igners from the Dis board!! I am going to give everyone one of these for our Epcot day!!
Fun stuff for us to do at Flower and Garden Festival - Background downloaded from some of the fabulous DIS Disigners!!
Again Here I have copied a condensed version of the menu for my family to peruse!
This is the new Mexican restaurant La Hacienda De San Angel. DH has not eaten here yet, the 2 DDs and I ate her last Spring Break.... Never got to Disney at Spring Break if you can help it!! Dd18 was going with her school.... Never again for me, I am too spoiled going when the crowds are low!!
The mistake we made was going there on a Friday in Lent... Being the good Catholics we are, we stayed with non meat dishes and it was good but we are looking forward to being carnivorous this time!! LOL
This page has some interesting items off the menu that would not fit ont he other page, I wanted to include the tequilla flight, I cant drink it anymore but I will have it in the form of a margarita!!! Also here are the yummy desserts if we save room...
Sundays plans are to begin with TONGA TOAST at Kona, I really want this every trip but the family most times votes it down!! Since we are staying so close this time, I realllllllllllllllly want some!!! YUMMMMMMMM!!!!!
The pic is one of me and 2 DDs last year on TOT!!
This is the condensed version of the Brown Derby menu where we will dine on Sunday evening!!
I love the Cobb salad and Charred Filet of beef here!! This time I want to try the Grapefruit cake though....
Inevitably on each vacation we come to the dreaded last day.... But it will only be 3 months until we come back for a pre-Dream cruise stay!! YAY!!! Believe it or not, I have ALWAYS wanted to eat at the ultra cool Contempo Cafe since I came her the first time in the 70s!!! So excited!!
Last page just has some quick info for the whole stay, reminders of the hours, parades and such!!
We are huge Disney fans! We finally bit the bullet and bought into DVC last year... I wanted to do it a long time earlier but my husband wanted to get rid of some existing time-shares we have... Yeah, good luck with that!!! If anyone knows a legal way to get rid of NON-Disney timeshares... PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!! I wish I had more DVC though they are AWESOME!!
We will be using our annual passes and Tables in WOnderland!!
Anyway this is our first stay at the BLT, we have stayed at the Contemporary with our oldest kids back in 1989, we loved the Contemporary b ack then and from what I have seen, the BLT is even nicer!!
I did this file in Keynote (apples version of Powerpoint!) then I exported it to image files to put in photobucket!
