Day 3-Breakfast at the Polynesian

We had 7:20 AM  (Yes, AM!!!!!) reservation for a character breakfast at the Polynesian.  As the buses between the resorts don't actually start running that early.  A very nice driver cam and picked us up.  Mickey Waffles and Kona Coffee.


Mick-a Mouse meets Harry Potter???


Yep, Mick-a Potter!


Day 2 - Monday -First Full Day

Sorry for the delays in posting, we had some technical difficulties.  Mostly me, but also a site problem.  But here I am now, fingers freshly rested and a brand new mouse for my hand shaped like, a certain mouse's hand.

We started out with a leisurely breakfast here at the cabin, we were all really tired from the trip.  Then we headed for Epcot and met Crash at the aquarium, and 7 other charactors around the Park.  Very overwhelming, and little man had a meltdown over lunch.  We headed back to the cabin for a nap (Kay-kay too.) Then we went to Downtown Disney for dinner.  Cap'n Jacks was not what we were expecting, not a thing to do with Cap'n Jack Sparrow.  I asked out service for wheat free options, she brought the chef, who somehow thought I wanted a carb-free dinner, I think.  (Her accent was very heavy.)  Thankfully Eric understood her more than I did, because she was saying "no rice, no potatoes, not pasta...." and we got it straighted out.  Yummy salmon with a onion ragout, green beans, and rice.  Then played around Downtown Disney.  Sleepy boy was carried home by daddy.

Here are some pictures:

Day 1-Locked in a gift shop


..and the rasin, rain, rain came down
 When you were a kid, did you ever dream of being locked in Disney World.  In our case it was the Liberty Square Gift Shoppe, for about 45 minutes, and it wasn't all that much fun.  It was raining so hard at one point they closed and locked the doors for our safety.  Then they handed out free bags of cotton candy to all the kids.  So there we were, about 25 soggy adults with 7 sticky, tired, damp kids hopped up on sugar in a gift shop with nowhere to sit while their parents repeated "Don't Touch" in turns.  hmmmmm sounds fun, right?


Well there were good times both before and after
Boat Ride from the camp ground to the Magic Kingdom.

Main Street is great, maybe we can find a bday present for Cousin Georgie (ssshhhhh, don't tell...)

The music was too much for Skeeter, he had to dance.
Mad Tea Cups were a blast!



The Wishes Nighttime Spectacular was AWESOME

Someone REALLY loved the fireworks.
Sleepy boy was carried home by Daddy and off to sleep we all went.

We are here!



Nothing exciting yet.  Long trip down,  Longer for Eric and Widgie than for me, I sat in the back playing and cuddling with Skeeter.  We watched some movies and stopped in Tifton Georgia for some really tasty barbecue.  We are all checked into our cabin and Reed is taking a nap, preparing for the night ahead.  This is actually Mommy and Daddy's bed.  He has a whole "bebe's" bed to himself and has thoroughly checked out the top bunk.  The plan is for dinner here at the resort tonight, then over to the Magic Kingdom for the electric parade tonight.   More Later.  Kaykay
