THEY'RE NOT GONNA MAKE IT! A tale from 2 cities!! THE END! pg 32

[DisneyKid4Life]

Aww I love hearing stories when people get really emotional from Disney Magic like when you entered BOG. So wonderful.

That spot with the castle reflection is an absolute favourite of mine. I can usually get a nice reflection photo at night, but this year was the first time I noticed it in the daytime. So pretty. It's like two castles!

Oh I so hope that phone turns up. Having lost a wallet (it did turn up thankfully or should I say Magically), I know how awful that feels.

Yeah it was definitely a magical moment! I had been waiting months for it!

I know! I have seen other people's pictures but never stopped for my own so I made it a must do!

Yeah we will find out in a couple days

Oh my gosh! BOG just looks absolutely PERFECT! I had no idea that you could meet the Beast in there... that's a nice little touch!

 

[katt789]

I’m super excited about the pirates adventure, and the Wilderness Explorere one in AK! I will definitely be checking them out next month! Love that there’s a charging station in Rapunzel’s area, and I love that it’s hidden, I didn’t even know it was there til someone else posted a picture of it!

Ah! What an awesome tattoo idea! I love Beauty and the Beast, it was my favorite growing up, then that switched to Little Mermaid at some point, but I’m pretty sure it’s back on top now haha! STUCK IN GLASS CAGE OF EMOTION! YES!! AH! That was a pretty big saying over Paige’ and I’s trips! Baha love it! Glad that you guys loved BOG, it is just completely amazing in there, the themeing is done so well and it’s just awesome!

Glad that you guys ended up making up, and I hope the phone was found later on!!

It is!

Yep he is in the library throughout dinner and there is even a spiel introducing him when he gets back from break!

The pirates adventure is too much fun!

You will have to let me know about the wilderness explorer one!

I know it is such a nice hidden treasure!

Thank you! It has always been my favorite I always liked that Belle was a bookworm like myself!

Yeah I always say that when things get too emotionally intense

It is something else! I was too happy!

Us too and it may have been you will find out tomorrow!

BOG looks awesome! I had a little bit of pixie dust today and got a reservation for November so I'm super excited now!

Love the reflection pics! I'm going to try to get some myself and some nighttime ones with the castle dream lights would be nice too.

6 days everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Absolute craziness! I am so excited!!!

So when we last left off we had gone back to the room after a magical time at BOG and losing Mom's phone on BTMRR which wasn't the first time I lost a phone on that ride

We woke up and decided to explore the resort on our way to POP!









The rest of our stay would be spent at POP. We love POP and if we can't stay Delux this is our go to resort!



To be honest the walk to POP felt shorter than the walk to our room



Bye AOA! The only way we will be seeing you again is from across the lake!




Ah home again!






Who doesn't love a good palm tree pic?!




For breakfast I chose



I am pretty sure it's their vegetarian egg white omelet with potato casserole which was amazing!


While Mom had



Bounty Platter - scrambled eggs, potatoes, biscuit, cinnamon french toast sticks, sausage, and bacon

It was still early so when we checked in we were surprised our room was already ready!






We had a great spot in the 50s! Super close to the main building and the pool!






We hung out in the room for a bit waiting for the lost and found to open. We played Uno and chatted with Dad and enjoyed some one on one time. When the Lost and Found opened we called and they had the phone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was pretty amazing! We headed out to stop there before we went on with our day.




We thought Dad would find this name funny




For those of you that don't know his name is Dale and we thought he would think of Mom and I as the dumbbells.




Before we headed to the Lost and Found we got lunch at the AOA food court.


I had


It was amazing!!! This was my first taste of Babycakes and it wouldn't be my last!!!!! The sushi was good too!


Mom had her pesto bread again




She can't wait to have this again in November!

 

[PrincessCaitlin]

After we ate we hopped on a bus to MK then took this



over to the Ticket and Transportation area.




Aaah I love a boat ride!










Arrival at the Ticket and Transportation Area



Love a good monorail pic!

After picking up the phone which was in great condition, except for the back battery covering missing, we headed to the Poly.




and I had to stop here



To get this




MY FIRST LAPU LAPU!!!!!!!!!!! It was sooooo good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After thoroughly enjoying my drink we finally got to our destination for the day.






Where we needed to stop here



Where I got these




Pumpkin and french toast cupcakes and a toasted coconut donut. Unfortunately I got them a bit too early so they ended up melting and I never ended up eating the Pumpkin cupcake but the other two were super good!


We had decided to go to Disney Quest this day so on our way there we stopped here



It is very cute inside!





It was pretty busy!




Love this wall!



It was nice and we decided we may have to come here in the future!



Finally at Disney Quest!




I am not a huge fan of Disney Quest and we aren't a very big gaming family, except for Disney XBOX games, but the tickets were free so we thought why not?!

We were excited for this guy's game!




My wreck it pose!






The game and area around it



This game is very hard!!!

 

[PrincessCaitlin]

After we were done getting clobbered by Ralph we headed for some easier games



We love Pac Man!!!!

It was near this ride/game



We probably spent an hour there if that then headed to our dinner ADR. It was fun but not something we would pay to do.

Our dinner ADR was here



This dinner was a bit of a mess first we started out by sitting outside



Where they plopped us right in the sun. So then we got moved inside. But the waitress outside said anything on the menu could be made gluten free which wasn't true

So my second choice was this



It's Not Bleedin' Chowder! - Freshest cuts of seafood and potatoes in a white wine infused cream broth.

It was very good!

While Mom got her usual



Fish and Chips - Our famous beer battered fish & chips served with our fresh tartar sauce.

I was more excited about dessert!



Yep this baby is gluten free! Strawberry & Apple Crumble - fFresh strawberries and apples in a tart with berry compote and vanilla bean ice cream

It was decent but I was too full from the chowder to eat much of it.



Mom had Ger's Bread & Butter Pudding - Like no other pudding you have ever tried. Believe us!

She did not like this. She is not a fan of raisins.

Overall it was a bust. Not our worst dining experience but it definitely wasn't the best!



We continued to stroll our DTD after dinner






They had the pin board out here so I had to stop!




I also bought this for Mom



Choosing my pins



Then it was back to the room to relax before we headed for a drink that night!











I can't wait to be back here in November!

 

[PrincessCaitlin]

I love nighttime strolls! Disney looks beautiful after dark!




Our drink destination





My drink



The Lava Lamp. It wasn't very good but oh well.

After relaxing for a bit I finished my drink and we headed back to the room.



To rest up for another big day tomorrow![/

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed them! I accepted your friend request!

Ahahah, that’s hilarious and probably true that you could get to pop faster than the LM rooms!

Ah! That’s wonderful that they had found the phone! Thank goodness! The only time I’ve experienced losing something on a ride it was a friends KTTWC and that wasn’t even that bad haha, easy enough to replace!

I do love Pop, it was the very first resort on Disney that I stayed at, and have stayed there many times since, it’s just awesome!

I had babycakes for the first time last week and found them to not be that great! Then again, I can compare to crave and other such places where as I didn’t eat the gluten free ones! At least they were good!

Lapu lapu! So much yum!! I love them! The fact that it comes in a pineapple just sells it for me though! Those cupcakes sound amazing!! I still haven’t made it to Disneyquest, and I doubt I ever will. It just doesn’t appeal to me at all, not a big gamer, and if I have to pay extra for it, why bother, right? Haha

I haven’t heard a lot of good reviews on Ragland Rd recently, it was on my list of things to try, but now I’m starting to think about cutting it from that list.

Awesome update a nice relaxing day at Disney! Love Pop so much! It has such a “home” feel to it I just love it!

 

[davebon23]

Thank you for following along with our TRs! I am glad you are enjoying the gluten free part of the reporting! I am more in love with Disney now because of how amazing they are with allergies! So much good food that week!

Yes that is sort of what happened to us

Tensions were high during that time but it was also nearing the end of our trip and we had definitely worn ourselves out by this point! It didn't take long for us to make up though!

I feel the same about loving Disney more. I was able to convince my then 16yr son to go to Disney cause I could eat so well there. He likes Disney, doesn't love it like my DD and I. And not so Cool to go to Disney when you are 16 I guess. LOL.

I'm looking forward to being able to eat out and not worry as much about the food. I just like seeing what everyone else has had in case I want to try something different.

Great updates! Have fun in DL! I have never been, but it's on my list to see someday. Enjoy!!

The Lost and Found is pretty magical!

Compared to other gluten free desserts they are amazing!

It was definitely an experience! I really wanted to drink out of a pineapple too I am also tempted to get this Shrunken Zombie Head drink at Trader Sams Sunday just for the glass

The one I had was!

The tickets came free with our packages so we went ahead and did it or else we wouldn't have.

I haven’t heard a lot of good reviews on Ragland Rd recently, it was on my list of things to try, but now I’m starting to think about cutting it from that list.

It gets mixed reviews. We used to like it but after that experience we won't be back for a while.

Yeah it is so much better now! I hope DL is just as good with gluten free! I am sure once he is a bit older it will be more fun for him!

Thank you! I can't wait we have always wanted to go and it's surreal to actually be going!

 

[Tickanee]

Thanks for the FB add!

I also wanted to add that I will be going to WDW in May with my brother who has a gluten allergy, so any tips would be great!

I am not too worried about our table service meals, but how hard was eating gluten free at quick service? Did you have to do much advance planning for those or did you wing it? My DH and I have our favorites, but I can see changing things up for my bro.

This trip is going to be a little different for us since we also will be going with my nephew who will be 7. We don't have kids so definitely a change in touring plans!!
