11-24 Today we ate breakfast at CRT. My girls had their hair, nails and make-up done at the Bibbdi Bobbdi Boutique on Thursday and wore their Sleeping Beauty (DD-5) and Mulan (DD-9) costumes. BTW the boutique was a really fun experience especially for DD-5 who kept looking at herself in every mirror she hapened upon and showed her fingernails off to anyone and everyone. DD-9 enjoyed the pampering and liked the long diva curls she got but she felt a little silly and a little too old for walking around with her hair all done up and a costume. In the lobby we had a photo with Cinderella in which DD-5 is beaming ear to ear. We were announced (by the poor woman who really needs a microphone as her voice was really strained) for breakfast while waiting for our picture so right after we were able to go upstairs and get seated. We had juice, coffee, a basket of pastries and a bowl of fruit before our hot plates came out. I am allergic to eggs so instead of scrambled eggs I got two helpings of potatoes. They were a little undercooked and the potatoes were kind of hard but everything else was OK. Snow White, Jasmine, the Fairy Godmother and Belle were there. We saw everyone once and Snow White came over twice. DD-5 loved the wishing ceremony where the children wish on the magic wishing star they are given and wave their wands over it. They close their eyes and when they open them the lights above twinkle. Overall it was a nice relaxing almost peaceful breakfast considering it is a character meal. I have never been to the castle and I am glad we did it but I don't think it is something we will need to do a return trip.
Overall grade: B
Lunch for my husband and kids was at Hurrican Hannah's by Storm A Long bay. The food was pretty good by the wait in line took forever.
That night we went to MK to see the parade and wishes. We sat at on outside table at Casey's all night. The hot dogs were pretty good.
11-25 Our last day. We had breakfast at Cape May Cafe. Good service. We all enjoyed the buffet,everything was kept well stocked. In addition to the main buffet there was also a yogurt station to make your own parfait but it was not easy to find. I had a parfait from the Marketplace earlier in the week and I was not crazy about the yogurt. I think it was b/c it was plain yogurt. I think I would have preferred vanilla. Minnie, Goofy and Chip and/or Dale were at breakfast.
Before heading to the airport around 2:00, we visited the World Showcase. It was about 1:00 when we hit the American pavillion and we got the girls a chicken casear salad fro DD-9 and chicken tenders for DD-5 while husband waited in line for a Turkey Leg from a vendor parked nearby. The girls liked everything including the giant Mickey Mouse rice cereal treat with ears dipped in chocolate. Husband waited forever for his turkey leg which was awful. He and I ended up getting pizza at the airport while waiting for the plane.
