Hmmmm.....I'm debating on whether to post my next update tonight or tomorrow morning. I'm leaning toward tonight but, gee, I don't know. I guess if I can get at least 10 different people to post telling me that they want the update tonight, then I will do it.

Remember, that is 10 DIFFERENT people, not different posts. I'll be checking back....

12!!!!

You know I'm gonna copy you and do this on my TR now!

Monday, June 25...Animal Kingdom
Breakfast with Donald and yet another DIS Meet


Hopes:
1. More PhotoPass pictures taken...
2. A good DIS meet with Laura...
3. No blisters on my feet...today was my Crocs Athens day again
4. A meeting with the Dream Team

Wants:
1. A good breakfast at Donald’s Breakfastosaurus...
2. Ride Expedition Everest with Laura at park opening
3. Ride Dinosaur
4. Have a good rest at the resort in the afternoon
5. Return to Animal Kingdom in the evening for EMH

Our bus seemed like it took forever to get to the Animal Kingdom. It was about 7:45 am and we started heading toward the main gates. I heard someone behind me call out, “DawnMaree!” I turned around and it was Laura (Crazy Kanga) with her hubby and 2 sons. I was surprised that she recognized me from the behind!! It was nice meeting up with her then because it gave us a chance to walk together through the park to Donald’s. Her husband, Chris (who is a very handsome man, BTW), came up to me and said, “I made it my mission to convert all of you people who disrespect the Disney name and call it the DIS boards. It’s DIZ. I am going to be on you until you start calling it DIZ.” I laughed at him and said, “Well, it was really nice meeting you. See ya!” It was funny because he asked me how I pronounced the name Walt Disney and then seemed let down when I knowingly said “Walt Disssney”. He was funny. It’s a good thing he was so cute and had that cute southern accent or else he probably would have bugged me. Oh yeah....I still say DISSSSSSSSSSSS!

We all arrived at Donald’s and checked in then got our pictures taken before they called our names. We had forgot to ask to be seated near each other so we all crowded in the restaurant and asked for tables next to each other. They reprimanded us and sent us away outside. No, really, they said it wouldn’t be a problem but we would need to wait outside so they could rearrange it. When they called us back in we were all seated at a big long table together. That was wonderful. It gave us a good amount of time to chat away and meet the characters together.

We all went up in the buffet line. I am not a big breakfast person so I just got scrambled eggs, hash browns, a plain bagel, and some fruit. I do remember that I did not like the hash browns. They were very very onion-ey! Yuck. I can’t remember what anyone else got and I did not take any pictures of the food. We were much too busy talking!

If you haven’t been to Donald’s, here is a brief description of how it is set up. There are a bunch of different rooms that connect with the main buffet in a totally different room. The fruits and bread buffet part were right next to us. The characters started in the room next to us and finally made it to our room.

First up was Pluto...

...then Goofy...with Brookie saying, "Oh shhhhhhhh.....ugar.

...and here comes the main Duck!

Mickey brought up the rear. Oh, doesn’t that sound great?

Good thing for digital cameras. You can sometimes notice when your picture doesn’t come out right. Thanks for blinking Brookie. But I took another one...

The characters would either meet up with Laura’s boys first or my kids and then switch. We had to explain to them every time that we wanted separate pictures because they wanted to do one big picture with all the kids.

We asked Mickey if Laura and I could have a picture and of course he was more than happy to be the mouse in the middle...

To sum up our breakfast, the best part of it would have to be having a nice long time meeting up with Laura and her family. The next best part was taking the pictures of the characters with the kids. But they were certainly very rushed and not very interactive at all. The food was fine. Like I said, I’m not a big breakfast person so I really cannot tell you how good or bad the food was. I didn’t really even eat too much. Would we go back here? Probably not but we’re glad we went once.


Next installment...June 25...Animal Kingdom...DinoLand to Asia and back to DinoLand

I found the character breakfast to be very rushed, too. The worse part for us was when Donald DUck snuck up behind Stitch, who was 11 months old at the time. Scared the (*&^(*&%(^&*% out of him---literally, if you get my drift. I am the same way as you with breakfast food, but SCrooge & Stitch LOVE LOVE LOVE it. We will sometimes make breakfast for dinner they love it so much

Great update.

More please
