The chocolate wave was scrumptious! Did you try it?
We've never seen the Flights of Wonder show...hmm...we may have to check it out. Glad you enjoyed Flame Tree BBQ. We really liked the food there too! We are hoping to try the Winter Summerland course next trip. My boys love miniature golf. Great PP pics with Mickey.
Wow so much has happened since I last read. The surrey bike looks like so much fun! 
We are such tough parents expecting our children to actually walkOh my goodness, poor Michael. He's having to walk again? Why oh why are you making him walk?
Too bad you guys weren't seated closer to the tank at Coral Reef. We have been seated up near the top of the restaurant each time we have been there and I didn't think it was too bad....but it definitely could have been better.
The boys must have been pooped to have gone to sleep before desserts came. At least they were well rested when it came time to meet the Big Cheese himself.
I think the problem with the Coral Reef was that we had such a great seat the first time we went that the only way we had to go was down. If you ever get lucky enough to sit by the aquarium you'll see what I mean.I hope the CR is great for you and you get right next to the tank. It makes for a great experience! (As you probably know.)
I didn't send the kids up to the tank. It was pretty busy, plus they didn't seem to have much interest. We were also the farthest table over on the far side so that made the view not as good as well. We will still probably go back at some point, just not right away.Hi! Great pics of everyone with Mickey and their medals. We ate the Coral Reef once and it was good. I believe there were 7 of us so we were not seated by the tank either. We had an early adr so the kids could gl up to the tank before the tables there were seated. Great pics while walking to Epcot
I'm not kidding when I say I think it took Michael longer to recover from his Mickey Mile than it did for me to recover from my marathon! He really did push himself too hard that day. The Mickey pictures did come out cute.Oh, poor Michael! I think he used up all his trip energy for his race and now there just wasn't anything left to give!
Great update! We really enjoyed Coral Reef last trip, our table was one back from the tank (the booths that face the aquarium). Wendy got a nice food pic too!
Loved all of the pics with you guys and Mickey! They all came out so nice.
Coral Reef must be one of those hit and miss places. I haven't seen the new menu for Le Cellier. I need to check it out. It's DH's favorite place so we will probably try to hit it next January.Aww bless Michael he really wasn't in the walking mood.
We found Coral Reef so so last year, which was a shame because we really enjoyed it the first time we went.
Have you seen the new menu for Le Cellier, it looks sooooo good!
Great PP photos
The Flights of Wonder is definitely worth doing! I think the Winter Summerland is the course to try. The pictures I've seen of it look really cute.Loved all your pictures in AK!
Yes I think Michael's routine is not very original! The problem with Michael is he thinks he's smarter than us so he doesn't mind getting left behind. He is confident he can figure out where he needs to get to all on his own. (We've actually lost him a time or two because of this.)Awww I used to pull that routine with my parents when I was younger and they would just pretend to leave me behind and that got me moving
I love the poses Mickey did with you and DH!! too cute!
They were definitely tuckered out!
The surrey bike and miniature golf were both really fun! I like doing those fun things outside the parks during our down time. Congrats on your half marathon! That looks like it was a great race! I'm sticking with halfs for a while as well. The full marathon is a whole different beast!I am finally caught up
We did miniature golf once...we had a blast playing, but not sure if we would do it again I believe at the time it was a free round when you had a package!
I ran the Princess 1/2 this past weekend and it was an amazing experience. Not sure if I am ready to tackle a marathon, but there is something about running through the Magic Kingdom that can not be beat
We love the character connections. It's so great to only have to wait in one line and get all of the Big 5!Love the update, the character pictures are priceless
That's too bad that Coral Reef was a disappointment, it really seems to be a hit or miss type of restaurant.
Love the photopass pic in front the ball!
Mini Golf wasn't bad. It just wasn't anything special. We got such a great deal though that I didn't mind. You should try Coral Reef at least once. It really is unique.
This is our favorite character spot. The line is inside (read air conditioned in the summer) and their are cartoons playing to entertain the kids. Similar to Mickey in Toontown except you get to meet all 5 instead of just Mickey and Minnie.
I think the wait was maybe 10 minutes. Not bad at all.
I love the Epcot ball at night too. It makes such a cool picture. I think the reason Coral Reef didn't seem as good is because we got spoiled by being right next to the tank last time.
We soon had a couple more friends stop by.
So we sent him and Wendy off to Thunder Mountain to get them while the boys and I took a leisurely stroll through the castle. I snapped these pictures of the cute capitals.
Then the boys spotted the sword. Now those of you that have followed my past trip reports know that Michael has some luck with the sword. Hes pulled it out twice. Here are the flashback photos.
I love CP breakfast too. We eat breakfast there at least once per trip. Then I sometimes also eat lunch or dinner there but not often. I enjoy both lunch & dinner but can't give up breakfast.
Occasionally we'll have a late breakfast if we want to have breakfast on an EMH morning but I have to say I don't like this as much. I find if you don't have an early sitting you have to wait to get seated and then often have to wait to see all the characters.
