we're back - highs and lows

[Isila]

Hello everybody, guess who's back?

Want to hear how it was?

AMAZING. Just simply amazing.

HIGHS
Where do I start? At the begining
RStransports-great service, on time, comfortable cars. Recomend.
HNY - wonderful. Stayed on 3rd floor, Brownstones, 3250, partial view of lake NPB, Disney village. Extra pixie dust - two cute Plutos waited for my kids as we arrived. This time each night the beds were done for the night with those chocolate coins on the beds. Kids were overwhelmed.
Mickey's cafe - great food, delicious, good service, wonderful character interaction. Totally different experience than last time.
Cowboy cookout - delicious food, wonderful character interaction. And they assumed DS2 was a baby, so didn't have to pay for him - saved money.
Casey Jr. - did many many many times, loved the ride.
Captain Jack Sparow - yes yes yes, I did get my pic we did go twice for meet'n'greet, first time there were many people, so I just letmy DS1 get his book signed and a pic. And this Jack Sparrow was just amazing, wonderful character interaction. He got into his character so well. We stayed till the end and enjoyed every minute of his "show". Next time we got different Jack, he was good, but the first one was way better. Will upload photos in TR later.
Castle - beautiful with no coverings.

LOWS
Crowds - way much more people than last year, packed, long queues... and all that comes with that: pushy poeple, rude people, trashy people...

Hello and welcome back

So happy for you and look forward to the TR

I thought of you when I was in the park on Monday

The weekend was manic wasn't it ? I saw the crowds for the St Patrick and went "poor Isila"

 

[DLPdaft]

I'm so glad you enjoyed Cafe Mickey this time Isila - and that you all had an amazing trip, despite the crowds .

I guess I would have been fine with the crowds, but the weather cold and rainy, everything wet but Animagique saved the day

Lucky the other days were nice weatherwise though it was a bit cold in the mornings

Did the littlest one love it too and when are you all going back ?

March 2013 Was thinking of June, because DS1 starts school this autumn, so we won't be so flexible with the dates. But then again - it's DLP, who cares about the school

DS2 loved it. He was so amazed when saw Mickey the very first morning when we arrived at DLP. Altough it took him 2 days, ti get used to characters. He even didn't give them to sign his book at first. Teh he would give the book and hide, no pic. Tigger was the first character he gave the book, huged and stood for a pic

That is what family holidays and making memories is all about IMHO

it really was good. maybe a different cook? Better waiter?

I love seeing such a long list of highs and such a small amount of lows!

Well, it's probably because I made up my mind that nothing would spoil my trip
