It was wonderful!
Great update Angie!! I can't believe the SHORT wait time at BTMRR at that time!! Awesome! I always too try to plan some Splash "logic" when getting placed in the logs, Gabe and I rode in the back and we missed the splash from the hill by the tiniest of margin! We got soooooo lucky!! So fun that the boys like POTC!! I like that one too, we are also fans of JC, the jokes are great, I am into easy goofy humor I guess!!!
I was so surprised to see such a short wait time on BTMRR especially since it was almost noon. At first I thought it was a mistake...but nope we were able to get right on!
Oh well! It was still so much fun! 
)
We happened to stumble upon Columbia Harbour House and I'm so glad we did!! It really is such a nice change from the usual counter service food. 
We were concerned because at first we thought that it was going to take away our adult CS credits but the CM assured us that they don't separate the adult from the children CS credits.Hmm....I always thought they did?? Well...whatever... we went with it and Nick had his bigger portion which was a huge treat for him.
) I mentioned how after lunch we could go on the Haunted Mansion. It was right there outside after all. Nick got this strange expression on his face and said "I won't do the Haunted Mansion...you can't make me!" Um...okay buddy, calm down." I looked over at Noah who's face had just fallen. He really wanted to go...it's all he talked about before the trip, that he was going to be really brave this time and ride all the scary rides! I told DH that he could take Noah over to ride and I would stay with Nick. DH knowing how much I love those Happy Haunts, told me to go ahead and that he would stay behind with Nick. Ahh...such a great guy!
I grabbed Noah's hand and off we flew down the stairs and out of CHH and toward the Haunted Mansion. I was so excited.. I knew Noah would love it! (or at least I hoped he would) On our way.....
I hope you get to go on it
It makes me feel all Disneyish when someone calls me, LOL!
Wow at your wait times! You did all that BEFORE lunch? Good going! 
I love the Columbia Harbor House too. Yummy! And the upstairs location seems so removed from the hustle and bustle. It's great. My kids also think the HM is just too scary!
Oohh...the Anchors Aweigh sandwich is so yummy! You definitely need to give it a try next trip.
Sorry to keep you in suspense....again. Aww...but it's so much fun Keala!!
I love POTC! So surprised you haven't ridden before now, but so glad you loved it! It's my favorite - so much so that my ringtone is set to the tune of "Yo Ho, Yo Ho, a pirate's life for me!"
I love the Jungle Cruise and I love BTMRR. I love Splash, too, but I always come off looking like a drowned rat.
Can't wait to see if you made it onto HM. I love that one. too!
We are always listening to "Yo Ho, Yo Ho, a pirate's life for me" in the car. It's the boys favorite! It sounds like most of us get soaked on it...oh well...it's still so much fun!!Oh, CHH, YUMMY!!! I LOVE the tuna there too and we didn't get there this last trip!!!! GRrrrrr.... We like that it's a change of pace for CS like you guys!!! I hope Noah went on the Haunted Mansion, if I tried to take Gabe on that I wouldn't have gotten the little voice like you did, I would have gotten the crying/screaming voice...
I've got that crying/screaming voice before. I'm surprised I didn't get it this time. Then again...I think he really wanted to try it but was just unsure especially with Nick refusing to go.
Come on Noah....you can do it!!
That's exactly what I was saying to him Missy!!
I have no idea what they are doing now but I know last Feb they did not separate Child CS credits from Adult, we just had a total CS amount for our reservation. TS was separated but not QS. At most places we were able to get adult CS meals, it was the resort CS locations that really seemed to enforce it.
I will be interested to see what happens in August. If they don't separate, and we will know on day 1, then I'm not going to stress about it frankly, Eric looks 10.
Your "burger-ed out" is exactly why I'm leery of the QSDP. That and it doesn't cost that much less than the DDP.
I am SO excited to try that tuna sandwich, it is a must do for me!
What wonderful wait times!
Oh no...the "I'm not so sure's"...
Oh well...now I know. Nick was overjoyed that he was able to get a bigger portion and also get a regular dessert. Poor kid..he was getting so sick of cookies and grapes by that point.
.
We do the same thing when the wait times are slow. I think we rode Splash Mountain 4 times last year, back to back. We just went around again and walked right on. We were soaked, but we were happy!
Here I was complaining about getting soaked once. It sounds like you had a great time though. You can't beat those wait times..they're the best!
They didn't sound too happy to him...just downright scary. Noah seemed more than willing and before he changed his mind, I grabbed his hand and away we went down....down the stairs to get in line.
As we moved in to the stretching room, I bent down and tried to reassure him again. Much to my surprise when I asked him if he wanted to leave. He shook his head no! He was determined to stick it out! 
When we made it to our seat, we put on our opera glasses and the show began.... Ahh...I have so many favorite parts in this show. Let's see...how about when you can smell the pies during the Beauty and the Beast part or hear Ariel sing "Part of that World" and I love flying above London with Peter Pan and Tinkerbell... Yes...BTMRR....again! Okay, now I love this ride too! But this would make...um let's see 5x this trip. I wasn't sure how long it would take on TSI and I didn't want to rush through it...so ultimately we decided to save it for our next trip. I guess it gives us another thing to look forward to next time. 
You know...as most brothers behave towards each other. This picture is why I love Disney so much..... The late night, the early morning, all the walking and the heat were starting to do them in. and made our way over to find a spot to sit. We found a nice shady spot just across the street from the Emporium. We plopped down, enjoyed our ice cream, and took in all the sights and sounds of Main Street USA. It was nice to just sit, relax and just enjoy being in our favorite place.
