Hee hee hee...

Oh yay! You leave so soon! That is exciting! How short of a trip will it be? Sometimes I think I actually do more on a shorter trip because I take less breaks.

The trip is actually pretty long but with work involved my park time is limited. I am flying in Feb. 2 and going to Universal parks feb 3-4, staying onsite...then heading to WDW the evening of the 4th and then parks and meetings the 5 & 6th. The 7th we head off to Port Canaveral for the Magic and then I have one night after at WDW. I would extend it longer but I think my husband would kill me.

We love the people mover, such a go to relaxing ride especially when it's crowded, raining, hot, etc... The pictures are really fun to look at especially from the Astro orbiter. I love the castle pictures as well.

That's a busy trip! Just keep saying "a little time at WDW is better than NO time at WDW!" LOL I wouldn't want (is it Chip?) to be killing you! LOL

So true! I love being able to see the park from up high, it's just a different perspective for little, vertically challenged me!

After the People Mover, we were off to Space. Space Mountain that is!

Back outside, we walked towards New Fantasyland as Blanche hadn't been on the Little Mermaid yet.

Ah! I'm still not getting notifications for this post for some reason. It looks like you're having a great time! Bummer about Blanche's foot though, at least she's managing! Is it ok now?

It was a big bummer. Her foot is still in a cast actually! It's been a horrible time to heal. That's too bad you're not getting notifications... I post every few days.

Space mountain is a must for me. The little mermaid attraction has so many great details to take pictures of.

 

[Yahweh]

Our girls and I love the trip report and all the beautiful pictures. We are also in PEI!!! (Summerside) We were there just after you guys were (Aug 27-Sep. 5), and will be heading back down this December. Nice to have West-jet Fly Direct out of Charlottetown in December.

I totally agree! On all counts!

Oh, I'm glad there are other Islanders reading the report! I clicked on your video link and cried. I remember watching it a while ago and crying too! That's so beautiful. Oh yes, the direct route is great! I wish I could really take advantage of it!

 

[DisneyFreak06]

We went to visit the Little Mermaid, since Blanche had left before I rode it last time. I didn't take as many pictures as the last time, but I still uploaded 38 pictures to my flickr account!

Great pictures of the ride! I took some video of it this time instead of photos.

Oh fun! I've been watching more and more youtube vlogs of trips, and it makes me think about doing video, but I'm no good, and I just love photography! Will you be sharing some videos in your TR? I haven't been reading any lately, but I plan to read yours!

I just finished my video and posted it in my trip report. It's 33 minutes long but could've been much longer with everything I had.

We had another date with the Beast, so that's where we headed next.

Before long, we were inside picking our table. Blanche wanted to sit in the West Wing as it was the only place we'd never eaten yet.

from raw-6766 by disneyfreak0306, on Flickr

I love this painting and how it works...

from raw-6768 by disneyfreak0306, on Flickr

from raw-6773 by disneyfreak0306, on Flickr

We each got our own meals. Blanche got the triple chocolate cupcake.

from raw-6775 by disneyfreak0306, on Flickr

And the Croque Monsieur. I got the same sandwich as this is mine here:

So many people using flash around!

Is that the Master's Cupcake? I forgot I'd gotten that! LOL I guess that means I really, really like the strawberry cream cheese a lot more, as this one was just forgettable.

I really like this one... I caught it mid change!

from raw-6813 by disneyfreak0306, on Flickr

And then the beautiful ball room before we left.

from raw-6814 by disneyfreak0306, on Flickr

It's really a beautiful restaurant. I will eat there again, but honestly, it's not for the food. Except the strawberry cupcake. I love that one! Maybe I'll try the turkey sandwich next time. Or something else. I know I enjoyed the leak soup, so if I'm not on any dining plan, I could do that and dessert. Yummy!

 

[rteetz]

The west wing is my favorite room. Our last two dinners there have been sitting in that room. While it is dark it is the best themed in my opinion. I do love the masters cupcake or the grey stuff.

 

[disneyAndi14]

I haven't seen the que for SM since 2011 so fun to see it. I don't ride it anymore it gives me a headache so my daughter rides by herself. I do love LM, it is a very cute ride for sure. I had the turkey sandwich at or last BOG lunch and it was so good, I liked it better then the Croque Monsieur. We sat in the west wing also our last visit. We have had lunch there three times and dinner once. We have prepark breakfast in April.

I do love the West Wing, but I don't think I could call it my favorite. I love the grandness of the ballroom too and then I love all the tapestries in the Rose gallery too! I always struggle with picking favorites.

You should walk the queue with your daughter next time and then take the "chicken exit". Sometimes it's fun to walk them again. Headaches are no fun, sorry you get them from SM! Oh good, I will try the turkey next time. the BK was fun too. I enjoyed that. So much food to try, so I can't really say I don't like the food. LOL

 

[DisneyFreak06]

After lunch, we were ready to wander some more. This was going to be a long day, we had a lot planned!

According to my pre-trip notes, we had a fast pass for 11:10 for BTMRR. We barely made our FP+t, as I took the previous picture at 12:09!

I agree about the food at Be Our Guest, nothing great at all; I do love the Masters Cupcake though.

I think frontierland is my favorite because it has my favorite mountains and it has country bear jamboree. I haven't been in hall of presidents in years.
