"SUCK IT UP BUTTERCUP! It Builds Character and Strength!" A July 2011 TR-COMPLETE 4/5

Chapter 14- Celebrate a Dream Come True!​

July 26th, 2011

For those of you who guessed Casey's for lunch...you were right! :thumbsup2 Those hot dogs and red and white tables are so classic. Definitely one of my favorite CS places.

We made our way over there and passed this pretty fountain. This pic is for Jess, because she LOVES this little corner of the Magic Kingdom.

The piano player wasn't out then, but that's okay because I am sure that another form of lunchtime entertainment will present itself eventually!

Such a great place to be.

We ordered our food and Dave went to find us a table outside. Mike had wanted to sit on the "bleachers" and watch cartoons, but they were already jam-packed.

We got a table with a nice view of the Castle and Main Street and chowed down. Mike and Dave each had a chili cheese dog and french fries.

And Cracker Jacks!

I had a regular hot dog and french fries, with a brownie for dessert, and of course that large lemonade on the DDP!

The buns were a bit larger than the hot dogs, which made for a little extra bread, but they were delicious and the fries were warm and crisp. The brownie was chocolatey and rich. Perfect!

YUM.

As we were eating lunch, the Celebrate a Dream Come True Parade started! I was so excited that we could just watch it from our table! It wasn't the best view in the world, but I managed to get some pics and we didn't have to wait for it!

First, Mickey and Minnie themselves!

Why hello Princey!

Prince Ali! Yes it is he, doesn't he look good? :rotfl:

Alice, the Mad Hatter, and Peter Pan came by!

The Fairy Godmother stopped and said hello.

Followed by Cinderella and Prince Charming!

I love these floats! They remind me of the Pirate and Princess Party. That was the BEST.

Then, Ariel and Prince Eric came by!! YAY! I love them.

Prince Eric looks like he's about to sneeze. :laughing:

dsc01864yc.jpg


THIS is why I want to be Ariel. She's adorable. So spunky and fun.

Tiana and Naveen passed by too. This was before I had even seen the movie/liked Tiana.

Last but not least was Belle and the Beast! I love Belle's dress, it's gorgeous. Ariel's is my favorite though. The color is gorgeous.

I loved the parade! It was so entertaining, and a perfect addition to our lovely lunch. All the princes and princesses were there, as well as a bunch of the other characters, some of which I didn't get pics of. The music is so catchy and it was just such a fun way to spend our first meal in the parks. :wizard:

Wow, those buns do look a little large for the hot dogs. Maybe it's because they have "special" hot dogs at Casey's now? :confused3

You would definitely make a cute Ariel. All you need is that spunk and I think you've got that. ;)

They were! Maybe...they were still good though!

Aww thank you! I would LOVE to be her! :goodvibes
 
Yes, I was right! I am a GENIUS! ;) I must try Casey's out next time I'm in WDW. All of the food looks good, but you're right about the buns, they are huge. Either Disney is bad at proportions or they've been attacked by aliens from the bread planet :confused3 We may never know.

Oh, I love the Celebrate A Dream Come True parade! I think I have basically the whole song memorized along with the dialogue that comes in between. Must've been the darn slideshow I made for my last trip (: And I could totally see you as Ariel, from the Bathrobe Princess videos Jess has up on YouTube, I can even hear her the little squeak in her voice in your voice. All that's left is the red wig and you'd be good to go :thumbsup2

Can't wait to read more! :mickeyjum

P.S. I have triumphed over Jess (and there better not be another excuse this time!)

Hahaha congrats Timmy! You guessed right. :P

I'm assuming like IheartDDuck said that they simply had to increase the bun size in order to accommodate the more adventurous hot dogs.

Must have! It's such a fun parade I love it! :goodvibes

Aw thanks! I realized that she is just like me, so I would have the time of my life playing her!

Oh yes there is Timmy. She is spending her last few hours at home enjoying the company of her beautiful family. BAM.​
 
THANK YOU. I love that fountain.
Wow, Snow White's princes is a cutie! He looked good in that picture. And of course Aladdin did too :love:
You really got decent pictures of the parade! Way to go! I loved the Pirates and Princess Party too... how I wish they would bring that back!
Can't wait for more!

Yay! Being in the chorus in Grease is so fun! The costumes are the best!

Woah that bun to meat ratio is way off!! What's going on Casey?

Its always fun to watch the parade with lunch, and by parade I mean pretty much just watch Prince Ali....shhh
Although the beast is looking pretty snazzy in his going out coat. I will always have a little soft spot for him!

I don't know! It was a little weird, but it was still yummy!

Haha yesss he is a very pretty sight to see. ;) LOL.

The Beast is so precious. I love him.​
 
I didn't really have much interest in eating at Casey's as to me there is nothing that special about hot dogs. But then I actually ate there and OMG those dogs are yummy!
