They Don't Eat Hash Browns in Princessland - May 14 COMPLETE! 2/8 pg. 73

[Dugette]

Loved this update - DIS-meets are always good, as is the room being ready early, but best of all: I learned some valuable things! Our tentative next trip is a land/sea next May and, based on historical dates, we think that the weekend prior (when we'd arrive) will be the first of Star Wars Weekends, but now I'm realizing that it may also still be Flower & Garden, which we have never made it to, AND F&G is apparently a lot like Food & Wine now! This just made my day!!!

Well when your Papadon is so awesome, how can he not star in the TR?

The Boardwalk looks beautiful! And it is fancy that you can just pull out the couch like that. I'm impressed

Oh hey, I read about your meet in Caitlin's TR and now I'm reading about it here. I now have both sides of the story.

I feel you on the spicy factor. I don't do spicy either.

Also, I love your shirt.

Oh the La Vie en Rose slush. So yummy.

 

[KatMark]

Oh thank goodness I wasn't far behind on yours...actually seems I hit it just right. With the news we got this week and trying to get a tiny update on my TR, I've fallen behind again.

for your room being ready. I'm really beginning to regret that we did the one bedroom at AKL and just a studio at BWV in September after seeing several pictures of the BWV one bedroom.

What a great way to start your time at Epcot...with a DIS meet. And I was on the floor with your pop wondering when and how often you were having more. He is just too adorable for words.

Some of that food looks interesting, but I really want to try that slush (although I prefer the Grand Mariner one over the Grey Goose).

 

[shan23877]

Oh Popadon. Of course he was charming the check in CM! And he should totally be a bra model.

How nice that the room was ready! We stayed at the BWI on our honeymoon, and we'll definitely be back someday. It's beautiful there.

Well you go the trip started off right! I didn't sample nearly as many F&G booths as I'd wanted to. Next time!

If I had to guess who your next meet was, I'd have to say Katt, but since you referenced Bo I suppose it could be Brenda....

 

[katt789]

what great updates!! I MUST stay at the BW at some point, that place is gorgeous and so awesome and great to just walk on over to Epcot…think Imma do a staycation for points during F &W just to be awesome lol!!

Yay for the room being ready, and hilarious shenanigans while un packing lol!

Awesome that you got to meet up with Caitlin & co multiple times!! I'm sad we didn't get to spend that much time with her but it was still fun lol!

YUM FOOD
EFFF

I'm now super hungry & shouldn't be eating anyting else for the rest of the day lol oh disney food! one day soon we will be reuininted!

 

[akayek31]

I don't know if you told this yet. When are you going to the F & W? We are in October sometime but it keeps changing and I don't feel like fixing my countdown again

 

[Neeny17]

I do love having purple hair... unfortunately I don't think my supervisor would be too impressed if I had it that way now. Your Pop is just the best! I laughed out loud when I saw the bra picture I really like the idea of Dismeets but so far the stars have not aligned in my trips. By the way I'm the Nina that friended you on Facebook the other week I realised that you probably had no clue who I was so I thought I'd clarify

 

[teekathepony]

Hooray for your room being ready! And what a gorgeous room it is too.
Walking to Epcot sounds so amazing, I can't wait to try that out.
So awesome that you already got your first Dismeet in already! Love the pic of you and Caitlin.
Yum, omg your food and wine selections look so good! (I am also the type to find milk spicy and I totally knew what was coming when you said ghost pepper tilapia! )

Brooklynn, Bella, and I will have the privilege of staying at Boardwalk for three days in July. We're bunking in with Marc and Anita until Jill, John, and Sophie arrive on Saturday, and then we'll head over to our usual home, Pop, for the next eight days. I have stayed at Beach Club, and the ease of walking from either of those resorts to Epcot and Hollywood Studios is so nice. Not waiting for a bus when leaving the park is wonderful.

We have four Disney friends/DIS meets scheduled for our trip. Caitlin is planning to make one of those on one of her off days.

 

[dawnbu40]

The Boardwalk is one of my favorite resorts and your room looks great. IMO the Epcot resort area is the best. I find that area so much prettier than the monorail resort area.

Anyway, we were so excited to meet up with you and it felt like we'd known your family forever. Very cute pic of you and Caitlin

Continued from previous post:

Next, it was off to the Fleur de Lys booth in France. I was looking forward to this one. Because I wanted the slushie. The pretty pretty pink slushie.

La Vie en Rose slush.



This was really good. If you like the Grey Goose slushie you would like this. It's a lot stronger than the GGS, which me likey very much!

What makes the pink slushie pink? Is it just some pink food coloring, or is there some kind of fruit juice or pink liqueur in it?

 

[sunnysideup3]

Yay for DISmeets! Glad you two had such a fun, quick meet-up. It's great when people mesh well off the bat.

That food looks so yummy. It doesn't help that its 9am right now and I'm STARVING for lunch type food....

 

[FloridaNative8]

Hahaha, I want to print out that photo of Popadon in his brassiere to take out when I'm having a bad moment at work!!!

We went to the F&G Festival this year, and had an amazing time tasting all the goodies. I had the duck in France as well, and LOVED it! I thought it might be too greasy, but the potatoes definitely helped with that!

And yay for DISmeets! I hope to have one of my own one day!

 

[tazdev3225]

Getting caught up on some TR's that I started then forgot I started. I'm bad like that.

Nice that you have a choice of airports. I have 1 - Philly International. OK there are a few smaller ones near me but I would have to drive further and pay for parking. Using Philly I get free rides from family members. And I can sleep later as I always take the 6 or 7 AM planes.

Your dad is a hoot. My dad never went on vacations and my parents do not get Disney. One of the worst trips I ever took was with my mother. Very nice that you get to share your trips with your parents.

I stayed at POFQ one of my trips with my friend and loved it. Riverside looks like a nice spot too but I love the Boardwalk and Beach Club areas. One day I hope to stay there.

Looking forward to more.

 

[DisneyKid4Life]

OK, that's interesting about the Boardwalk parking. Since I generally rent a car, I'll keep that in mind if I'm ever able to actually stay there, lol.

Oh yeah, when I picture Popadon talking up the ladies, Flynn is EXACTLY who I picture. EXACTLY!

Uh huh. "Accidentally" left his book behind? That's the oldest trick in that book. The George Costanza leave behind. Co-Stanza.

Aw yeah DISmeet!!! I also do hug people at random though.

And Star Wars twinsies.

Hahaha, I always approve of a Cam gif.

Ooooh, I'm liking the sound of La Vie en Rose slush. Like A Lot. Like A WHOLE LOT!!!

Up next: Let's meet by Bo!

I loved this drink!! After the first taste I gave alot of thought to crawling over the counter and sticking my head under the machine. Rumor has it that it is being held over at least until Food and Wine Fest!!!

It was so great to meet you guys too. It did feel like we knew each other forever. We had a fantastic time with you , Dale and Caitlin. Hope to be able to hook up again soon at WDW.

 

[DVCWDWMEMBER]

Yes, thankfully she is speaking to me. I disclose everything on my TR's, and she's fully aware of it. Not that it's always her favorite thing but meh....what can you do?



It's a lovely resort! We stayed there a few years ago, so it was nice to see it again.



I'm glad that you're here.

Yep I am still speaking to Danielle I have no shame either

 

[DVCWDWMEMBER]

Looking at the food pics makes me want to go back..... I can't wait for November for the Food and Wine.. Loved all the food

 

[amazingact21]

When rooms are ready ahead of time, you feel like you're getting ahead on vacation right from the get go. It's like, "clearly I was meant to be in Disney, checking in on this day"


How did I miss that slushie??? It looks delicious!


Haha, I couldn't help but laugh at your Cam gif. Sorry the food was so spicy!
