What a disaster!!

[saralexander97]

Your food pics are awsome, the sour apple smoothie looks so refreshing. Thanks for the update, I am glad you are feeling better. I love the Coral Reef, watching the fish swim by is so relaxing. That was the best meal on a previous trip to Disney, the food is awsome. Reading your TR makes me want to call and make ADR for our up and coming trip, but the DH wants to try all new resturants.

 

[MICKEY4EVER!]

Yay, an update! Glad you are feelin' better.

Just wanted to comment on the pics: mouthwatering is the only word I could come up with. I want that Lava Smoothie!!!! And the steak, and your dessert. Just ate breakfast, now I'm hungry again!

Adore the fish tank photos, the sea turtle is my fave.

Looking forward to hearing more about the missing wallet and "pokey" foot. Oh, no!!!!!!

 

[MadiMouse]

Great update!!!

 

[eandesmom]

I have to admit, Coral Reef for some reason has never been on my list of "must try's" though I know it is super popular. After seeing those pictures....it's on!

I'm worried about your foot

 

[disneynuts777]

Great update....keep them coming A "pokey" foot.....please do not leave us hanging.....your wallet????

(and yes I am a very fast reader....it drives my DH nuts.)

 

[ThreeTinks]

ARG! I reached the end and still no wallet update

I found your TR last night around dinnertime and have done nothing but read it and sleep since then and I just caught up - I have been LOVING IT! Best TR ever you have a great writing style - I feel like I've been with you and your DW every step of the way, my legs are even sore and I think I gained five pounds

Love your photos, I am an amateur - always have loved photography and took my Rebel xti to Disney in December with a couple of lenses but our trip was really busy and I didn't come back with many photos so it's very nice to get to see some from someone who is able to take their time and find all those special touches.

Can't wait to read more

For appetizer, I have Seared Sea Scallops - served with a Cauliflower foam and black Truffle Vinaigrette.

When I saw the picture I thought that was mashed potatoes, but... cauliflower foam??? That doesn't even sound good.

Looking forward to more!

I have to say topdog that your pictures wow me everytime. I am convinced that since my stomach is very small I shall just drink smoothies and eat dessert when I am at WDW and skip the main courses!
The Seas Pavillion is my favorite place at EPCOT, but I haven't had much chance to explore that yet- my kids aren't the right age yet- but SOARIN and The Land are on my must do list for the next trip. Now, what about the wallet, the glasses and the pokey foot? Don't leave us hanging!

I'm a new subscriber. Been reading your TR here at work today (slow day...shhhh don't tell my boss ) But it's about time for me to go home so I wanted to subscribe before I head out the door. I'm all the way back on page 12 (the day after you got your camera bag delivered to you). So glad you got that camera bag too because your pictures are amazing! I'm new to the world of photography so your pictures are giving me inspiration. I just invested in a Canon Rebel XSi and can't wait to break it in on my WDW trip in December. I doubt my pictures will be as good as yours but I'm practicing. Anyways, I hope to get caught up the rest of the way this evening or tomorrow. The boss is going out of town so it's a very slow week for me.

Glad you're feeling better and updating!

The fish tank was magnificiant. Food actually was very good.

What's LGMH stands for?

Up at this part of the state. It will rain for the rest of the week except a break on Wed.

Lime green Mickey Heads. You get them at Home Depot in the paint section. I just got mine the other day. I looked for fellow "disers" 2 years ago but didn't see anyone. This time I would like to wear one and see if a fellow "diser" will find me.

I don't know why they have to be Lime Green.

 

[topdog]

Great review of the restaurant. I had no idea how the seating was set up. I had a completely different vision in my head. Thanks for clearing that up for me. Soarin' next, huh? That is my favorite EP ride

You should give Coral Reef a try. It's an awesome restaurant.

Great update TD! Glad to hear you are feeling better. The pics were awesome as usual.

Thanks. I can't wait for the allergies season to be over.

Another great update! My daughter has allergies too. She also has treenut and other food allergies.

I was allergic to mango when I was a kid. I guess I kinda grew out of it now. But every now and then, if the citrus is too high my throat would swell up.

"Lime Green Mickey Head" -- kind of an identifier for many people who are DISsers (don't know how it started). You can get a paint chip at Home Depot that is shaped like a Mickey, in many colors -- lime green is the DIS color of choice!

Thank you for the explaination. But here is the odd part, lime green happens to be DW's favorite color. Coincident?? Now I have to go to HD to hunt for one of those LGMH.

Glad you are feeling a bit better. Love your pictures and can't wait to hear about your wallet now!!!

Those smoothie is very addicting. I would definitely go back to Coral Reef again. However, I do agree with your DH too. There are so many great restaurants all over WDW to try. Why keep going back to the same one?

Yay, an update! Glad you are feelin' better.

That Lava Smoothie was super tasty especially after walking into the restaurant from a hot sun. I don't know why I like the sea turtle so much. Watching him swimming around makes me feel like jumping into the tank.

Great update!!!

Thanks.

I'm worried about your foot

I think Disney needs to sent me back to WDW for more food critic and pictures since now every one want to try those restaurant after my pictures and TR. I am not holding my breath though. LOL...

Great update....keep them coming A "pokey" foot.....please do not leave us hanging.....your wallet????

(and yes I am a very fast reader....it drives my DH nuts.)

Don't worry, fate of the wallet and my foot will reveal in the future installment. Unfortunately, I can't type as fast as you read. Just be patience.

ARG! I reached the end and still no wallet update

Yay! A new reader!! Thank you for the compliment. I appreciate it. So glad you like my TR and my "dry" humor. Rebel is a great camera. No excuse not to take any picture at Disney.

When I saw the picture I thought that was mashed potatoes, but... cauliflower foam??? That doesn't even sound good.

Looking forward to more!

It does look like mashed potatoes doesn't it. It wasn't taste that bad. I like cauliflower anyway. The scallop taste awesome though. Only if you knew some of the odd thing I have eaten. This is nothing.

Just smoothies and dessert, now that's a great diet.

Don't worry, I will post my next update in a little faster pace now. Fate on those disaster shall reveal soon.

I love new reader. Don't get in trouble from reading my TR at work. I can't even get on this site from work. They block them all. Take your time to catch up. I still have a way to go. Digital camera makes taking picture so much easier now. Keep practice and try different configuration. You will be surprise how cool some of the shot can be.

Glad you're feeling better and updating!

Thanks. I will do my update in a more steady pace.

Hi. I just found your trip report and read the whole thing through. I am truly enjoying it and love all of your pictures. I, too, am waiting to hear the fate of the wallet! DH and I also really liked Coral Reef. Keep up the good work

 

[dragonflydoll2]

Thanks for the fantastic review of Coral Reef. My husband and I will be dining there for our anniversary in 2 weeks. I will definitely be taking my dslr to dinner to try and get some shots of the tank. Which will drive my husband crazy, of course.

 

[Tiki Room Fan]

Only if you knew some of the odd thing I have eaten. This is nothing.

Ok so now I'm curious....what ARE some of the odd things you've eaten? I too like cauliflower, but what have they done to it to turn it into "foam"? LOL I've had mashed cauliflower and that's great but foam? Hmmm...

I just got caught up on your TR again. I figured I'd have time to read it while at WDW last week, but for some reason, the Dis boards weren't recognizing my screen name and password and due to the s-l-o-w dial up connection, I just didn't have time to switch back and forth to the Firefox browser and log into my AOL email to get my sign in info sent to me, plus never had that much time all at once in the room. WDW was VERY crowded last week and we didn't have as much leisure/relax time as we normally do when we go in the fall. This trip was constant go go go. I still feel zombie-like and exhausted and I got back home on Saturday night. We won't ever go again in the spring...never. It was fun to at least chat with you in emails while there ... you are the only person who has gotten a sneak peek at my future TR. LOL. I took a lot of notes and pictures, but since I've been there so many times, I don't really take as many pictures as I used to because I'm pretty sure over the years I've actually photographed every inch of WDW...probably twice. LOL

Can't wait to hear the rest of your WDW journey. Glad you're catching a break from your allergies.

Oh no worries there. My Dad is my boss That stinks that you can't get DIS at work I hate when companies block certain web sites but I guess I can see why they do it. Thanks for the encouragement on using my new Canon I'm really looking forward to learning how to use it more.
