Hey there Susan, I followed you over from your dining reviews. I am just at the beginning of your trip report (still on arrival day) but I couldn't let this go without commenting. DH and I booked a Grand Villa at BLT, for one night, as a surprise for our friends a few years ago (2009). Oh my, it was awesome! It was like a gazillion points but it was so worth it. Going to sleep, lying on the bed looking out at the Magic Kingdom was amazing. The girls slept up on the balcony area and said it was the best place they've ever stayed. There are some pictures in my trip report (Bad Mothers Chapter 15) if you care to see.
Hi !! I am so happy you came over to read !! I will have to check out the Grand Villa. I want to do it, too, but for just the four of us, I am not sure it is worth it. If we can get some other people to come, we might do it. It does sound awesome. I really loved BLT !!
Right, off to read more...
OK. See ya soon !!
I had to go look for the hidden Mickey in the giraffe. Look at your dd, then look at the giraffe. It is part of the giraffe's spots.
Thanks Marisa !! I had to really look for it, but I see it now. Thanks !!!
Catching up
Yay !!!
SO. MANY. PRETTY. ANIMALS.
I know, right ???
And Harambe! MY LOVE.
It is just so much fun to say, even. Harambe .... Harambe
OMG IT IS DINO THE FLYING DINOSAUR. (that is my fave ride, btw.)
I think it is cute !!
I am so with you, Susan, on hating Dinosaur. That ride scares the crap out of me. Yes, I know the dinosaurs arent real BUT STILL.
It is just too jerky for me. And too dark. I wouldn't mind the jerkiness so much if it weren't so dark. I dunno. I just don't like it.
I LOVE THE THEMING TOO!!!!!!!!!!! As you already know, I am guessing.
AK is the best themed park, I think. It is just so cool.
Ok. So where do Dug and Russell exactly meet????
As you come into the park across the bridge and the Tree of Life is in front of you ... Russell and Dug and off to the right. We have been wanting to meet them for a while now, so DD was very happy to see them. They were really fun !!
I have a very loud voice and sometimes I dont even notice. But that woman sounds just obnoxious. I would never yell to my family (aka MUM) from like 10 miles away or say oh are the characters changing into their costumes. Thanks for ruining it for the little kids! Seriously.
She was a real character. She seemed super nice, just clueless in general. And LOUD !!
Stop torturing moi with your pictures of AKL. I am already crying over AK.
I'm sorry, sweetie. One more post after this. You can make it. Here's a tissue.
And happy belated mothers day!
Thanks !! It was a good one !!
All caught up - 2 and a half hours later My DH is going to wonder why I've got nothing done this evening
Yay !!! I get like that sometimes, too. I love reading straight through sometimes.
I must admit, seeing how many people there are in some of your pictures, I am starting to regret my plan to visit next March. Still, if the worst comes to the worst, my DD and I will just position ourselves within easy walking distance of the La Vie en Rose (hoping that they have it again next year) and that will be enough to keep me going for the week
It IS crowded during that time of year. But I just love it during that time. The weather is always so nice and I love the Flower and Garden Festival. Just get up early and the hit the parks at EMH or rope drop and fast pass, fast pass, fast pass. We never felt like we were waiting in line.
And you MUST get the Pink slushie and don't even share it. Next time I am getting my own. DH always drank too much of mine.
