Where is Dino Land? Early Spring Trip 2/27-3/9/25! Updated 4/13*

Is this cake worth $23 dollars? 💵

We had a nice little rest before walking over to the Cake Bake restaurant.


I checked us in and noticed the bakery did not have a line, so we went in and looked around. It is beautiful in there and all the treats looked delicious. It is hard to justify paying $16 dollars for a brownie bar. We didn’t buy anything since we were heading into the restaurant soon.

I got the text that our table was ready within 10-15 minutes.

We went into the restaurant and were seated in the room to the left of the hostess stand. It is not the carousel room.

We had a table looking out onto the Boardwalk.

We decided to share an entree and a piece of Birthday cake.

I ordered an iced tea and it was delicious! I’m not sure why but it was one of the best iced teas I have ever had. D had a Diet Coke.

I got up, walked around, and took some pictures of the restaurant. It really is beautiful inside.

We ordered The Chicken Picatta.
IMG_2025-04-05-122613.jpg
This was Parmesan crusted chicken breasts served with lemon caper pasta and arugula. This was very good and a big portion so it was really shareable. It was light for a pasta dish. Next we ordered the dessert.

Pixie Fetti® Birthday Cake
IMG_2025-04-05-122707.jpg
Three layers of vanilla confetti cake with a hint of almond. Filled and frosted with Princess Pink vanilla almond buttercream and topped with Pixie Fetti® confetti.
$22.99

The buttercream was silky smooth and very flavorful. It was the best part in my opinion. The cake was good but definitely not the best cake I have ever had. It was a tad dry on the edges. Overall we enjoyed it. Was it worth $23 dollars? No I don’t think so! Was I mad about the cost of the meal here? No not really, I bought to treat my sister and overall everything was delicious. I am never mad about paying for a meal I am happy about. Tell me what you all think, especially if anyone reading has experienced this restaurant.

I will say, the restaurant didn’t do anything special for D’s Birthday. We did note it and talked about it to the waitress. She did put a little extra confetti and edible glitter on the piece of cake. 🍰

We finished up and headed out to walk over to Epcot.

I had made 3 FP$$ for Epcot. Signs of F&G in Epcot were popping up, yay!

I sure missed Gran Fiesta in Mexico 🇲🇽 it was closed for refurbishment.

We headed to our FP rides. We did SE, Soarin, LWtL, Nemo, and Mission Space (green), D really likes this. I think it is fine nothing great. We did Figment last. It was getting close to park closing. We walked through Journey of Water. This really is beautiful at night.

Next, we walked slowly through WS listening and watching Luminous again. 3rd time this trip!

We made it to Frozen and decided to skip it, D didn’t want to get wet, haha 🤣 She got wet the last time she rode, oh my, she was now like Andi and boycotting Frozen! :sad2:

We had already knew we didn’t want to try for GotG during the extra hours, the wait is usually long and we had plans to ride it on Wednesday.

Instead we walked to France and rode Remy twice! D does love this one! The wait was around 15 minutes the first time and less than that the second time. :bounce:

After our rides we headed out and walked back to our resort.

Magic=pilots on the falcon, Ronto roaster, seeing a glimpse of Mando, Beauty and the Beast show, Cake Bake dinner, boat transportation, walking to Epcot, and the best iced tea ever! :love:

Tragic=I don’t like how everything but attractions basically closes down during the extra evening hours. Unfortunately we met a few very cranky CMs this day, not sure why? At the entrance to both parks, no smiles or greeting and asking questions a few times, I felt like I was bothering them. I think that is it for today, more Magic than Tragic!

Stay tuned for another look at Dino Land or what is left of it!


 
A day without ToT but we had an expensive slice of cake!
Now there's a title!
I had to wait until we tapped in to TSM to open up the tiers. Basically I could not do the switch before hand because MMRR is tier 1 and ToT is tier 2.
<sigh>
I have so much to learn.
Not going to bother, since by the time I get back there again, it will have all changed again. :laughing:
We, unfortunately, arrived right at cluster o clock!
:rotfl:
We wore our patience pants
:laughing:

You've got quite the way with words!
We had a fun ride, forever beavers 🦫
This is your lot in life. Don't try to fight it.
D did beat me by a few thousand points! I’m losing my touch, lol 😆
Oh, no! The ignominy!
IMG_2025-04-05-073350.jpg
Haven't seen this one before. :)
We each had a Ronto wrap. This was D’s first time trying this and she really liked it.
Those things are ridiculously good.
That's a cool one.
Secretly, I was hoping it would convince Jack to make a trip with me, so far no go 😢
If that doesn't do it, I don't know what would!
There was a mom and son in front of us. The boy was a teen with special needs. They were assigned pilots and his mom asked us if we would be the pilots. It would be too much for her son.

I told D let’s do it! She was nervous about it, but I did convince her to give it a try. :thumbsup2
Glad it worked out for everyone. :)
Verdict? It was so much fun! Were we great? Heck no but quite a bit better than some pilots I have rode with.
Yay!
And I'm sorry... for those people who get annoyed at less than perfect pilots... Go jump in a lake.
The mom and her son had a good time being the gunners! He was very excited 😊
:goodvibes
guess who we got a glimpse of? Mando and Grogu!
Cool!
She did seem to like it a little better in some spots, overall she did cry more than laugh 😆
Oh dear. :laughing:
We decided to do the Beauty and Beast show next. I haven’t seen this show in many years.
Nor have I.
It is hard to justify paying $16 dollars for a brownie bar.
:eek:
Nope! Maybe $6... and even that is pushing it!
We went into the restaurant and were seated in the room to the left of the hostess stand. It is not the carousel room.
No idea about this. Never been.
I ordered an iced tea and it was delicious! I’m not sure why but it was one of the best iced teas I have ever had.
Oh??? Was it sweet?
I got up, walked around, and took some pictures of the restaurant. It really is beautiful inside.
Thanks for those. :)
We ordered The Chicken Picatta.
Looks and sounds pretty good.
Three layers of vanilla confetti cake with a hint of almond. Filled and frosted with Princess Pink vanilla almond buttercream and topped with Pixie Fetti® confetti.
:cloud9:
:faint:
It was a tad dry on the edges.
For $23, it better be perfect. I think I would have been very tempted to send it back.
I will say, the restaurant didn’t do anything special for D’s Birthday. We did note it and talked about it to the waitress. She did put a little extra confetti and edible glitter on the piece of cake. 🍰
Wow. So thrilling. Yippee. :rolleyes1
Mission Space (green), D really likes this. I think it is fine nothing great.
I was very disappointed with it. I wish they'd left the ride (sans spinning) the same as orange. It doesn't make sense now.
We walked through Journey of Water. This really is beautiful at night.
Noted. :)
Next, we walked slowly through WS listening and watching Luminous again. 3rd time this trip!
You're an expert now!
We made it to Frozen and decided to skip it, D didn’t want to get wet, haha 🤣 She got wet the last time she rode, oh my, she was now like Andi and boycotting Frozen! :sad2:
Oh, no! :laughing:
Unfortunately we met a few very cranky CMs this day, not sure why? At the entrance to both parks, no smiles or greeting and asking questions a few times, I felt like I was bothering them.
That's unfortunate. Everyone can have a bad day, but... you just don't expect that from "Cast members who are on stage"
 
@pkondz I wanted to show you are April fools snow fall, it actually came on 4/2 ugh 😑 It was a blizzard warning here, these pictures are from 4/3. The calm after the storm! Thank goodness it is almost all gone now!

Got to love a spring blizzard 🥶 said no one! 🤪
Looks very similar to what we got, although I don't know how many inches it was. 5"? 6"?

Spring can get off its butt and get over here any time now!
(Thanks for sharing the pics! :))
 
We, unfortunately, arrived right at cluster o clock! Wow HS is the worst at RD.
We once arrived right at general opening, and it took almost 1/2 hour to get into the park. It is the worst park if you miss early entry.
We decided to have an early lunch in GE. We each had a Ronto wrap. This was D’s first time trying this and she really liked it.
I had heard a lot of good things about a Ronto wrap. We finally tried one and were not impressed. It didn't help that it was overcooked.
A mom and a little girl (3-4)years old shared the row with us. The girl was a little nervous especially with the wind blowing in the one area. She did seem to like it a little better in some spots, overall she did cry more than laugh
It would be a bit scary for a young child.

We love that ride. I always notice something new in there.
We decided to do the Beauty and Beast show next. I haven’t seen this show in many years.
We finally saw this show for the first time in ages. We thought it was pretty good.
We had a table looking out onto the Boardwalk.
It sounds like you had a good table and the chicken picata looks delicious.

Instead we walked to France and rode Remy twice! D does love this one! The wait was around 15 minutes the first time and less than that the second time.
That is a really short wait time for Remy. :)
 
I love the little charcuterie tray, the Mango cart beer is very light and refreshing
You're almost convincing me to get a beer. :laughing:
Today was D’s 29th Birthday 🎉 haha 😂
:lmao:Of course!!
It was a fun first ride with many dad jokes to be had! “O2H, O2H the backside of water!💦
They just never get old.
Aww, you'll be such a cute and fun addition to the Happy Haunts!
We had to wash our hands thoroughly after this. The bathrooms behind Gaston’s are nice because somewhat hidden never too crowded.
As a certified Disney Bathroom Expert, I concur.
We did get on FoP with only about a 25 minute wait! Yay!
WOWZA! That's awesome!
We had a fun ride, forever beavers 🦫
This. :sad2:
We each had a Ronto wrap. This was D’s first time trying this and she really liked it.
I have one almost every trip. I'd rather split one with someone since they're so big, but YUM!!!
I think being pilots is the best way to enjoy this ride.
No!

It's the ONLY way to enjoy this ride. ;)
The buttercream was silky smooth and very flavorful. It was the best part in my opinion. The cake was good but definitely not the best cake I have ever had. It was a tad dry on the edges. Overall we enjoyed it. Was it worth $23 dollars? No I don’t think so! Was I mad about the cost of the meal here? No not really, I bought to treat my sister and overall everything was delicious. I am never mad about paying for a meal I am happy about. Tell me what you all think, especially if anyone reading has experienced this restaurant.
I'd be willing to try it with a friend (or two!) WAY too big and $$ for just me, but I'd do it mostly for the ambiance- what a lovely venue!
I sure missed Gran Fiesta in Mexico 🇲🇽 it was closed for refurbishment.
I have a favor to ask for our upcoming trip in October for this ride... please be open! Remind me when the time comes!
This really is beautiful at night.
Now that I've seen it during the day, now I need to go at night!!!!
 
The Cake Bake Shop looks so pretty - but those prices??!! Nope. Not gonna happen. And, as much as I love Studios, it is kind of the worst all around - hard to get in to, doesn't handle crowds as well as other parks, very limited rides for someone who can't do the "thrill" stuff (my aunt can basically only ride TSM and MMRR.) This park needs some love.
 
I also still had ToT. I wanted to trade it for MMRR, however I had to wait until we tapped in to TSM to open up the tiers.

I'm guessing D was not up for another ride on TOT.

We went into GE. I got a few pictures done. D didn’t want to join in the picture. I had a mando and Grogu shirt on.

Very cool shot. Love your shirt.

We decided to have an early lunch in GE. We each had a Ronto wrap. This was D’s first time trying this and she really liked it.

Love these too!

Once lunch was finished, we decided to really check out GE. It was really fun going into the shops. The theming is really amazing.

There is so much to see here.

Verdict? It was so much fun! Were we great? Heck no but quite a bit better than some pilots I have rode with.

You have more courage than me. I'm ok with sitting in the back.

This was Parmesan crusted chicken breasts served with lemon caper pasta and arugula. This was very good and a big portion so it was really shareable. It was light for a pasta dish. Next we ordered the dessert.

This looks delicious.

I sure missed Gran Fiesta in Mexico 🇲🇽 it was closed for refurbishment.

We missed it too in January.

I will say, the restaurant didn’t do anything special for D’s Birthday. We did note it and talked about it to the waitress. She did put a little extra confetti and edible glitter on the piece of cake. 🍰

This is disappointing.

I had made 3 FP$$ for Epcot. Signs of F&G in Epcot were popping up, yay!

IMG_2025-04-05-122934.jpg

So pretty!!! Can't wait to see it next month.

We walked through Journey of Water. This really is beautiful at night.

It really is. I like to visit during the day to play and at night just to see the beauty.
 
Hey Everyone!
I have been watching so many videos and ride previews of Epic Universe! I am so excited! I was wishing I could have worked in a trip before it opens with the AP previews but the dates just don’t work for me!

Andi and I are very excited for our early September trip. I can’t wait to explore the park. I am especially excited for HP Ministry of Magic and Darkmoor, the classic monster area with the ride Monsters Unchained! This looks amazing!
To sound cliche it is going to be Epic!
1744325182514.gif
I will be in Florida when the park opens but I will be at Disney and maybe a quick hop over to the OG Universal! I am hoping to meet up with Vanessa @vamassey1 and Molly @Mollydolly334
My trip is in late May. I am staying the first night at AS Sports. I arrive around 8pm. I will move over to CBR for 4 nights. I have requested a room close to the Skyliner. I plan to spend time at Epcot enjoying the F&G so the Skyliner resort is perfect. I’m not a huge fan of CBR, but I love the Riviera which is next door. I will be eating over there some as well. I love Primo Piatto and my favorite iced coffee ever! The honey almond cold brew. I will picking this up at least once!
I didn’t make any dining reservations nope not a one! I’m hoping I can maybe have dinner with Vanessa and Molly one night if it works out.
I plan to go to each park but mostly Epcot! 😃 And of course Dinosaur 🦕 my favorite ride ever!
I am looking forward to this little solo trip.
I will be back soon to the current TR

That sure would be nice. :)
 
A day without ToT but we had an expensive slice of cake!

Today was DHS with FP$$ for TSM and SDD. I also still had ToT. I wanted to trade it for MMRR, however I had to wait until we tapped in to TSM to open up the tiers. Basically I could not do the switch before hand because MMRR is tier 1 and ToT is tier 2.


We took our favorite transportation over to HS! The boat of course. We, unfortunately, arrived right at cluster o clock! Wow HS is the worst at RD. We wore our patience pants and finally got into the park! Ugh 😣 we were in the worst line possible. It was not moving at all! Once we made it to the entrance, we headed to TSL. Our first FP was for TSM. Once we tapped in, I switched ToT to MMRR. We had a fun ride, forever beavers 🦫 D did beat me by a few thousand points! I’m losing my touch, lol 😆 We had Slinky next. It was a short wait in the FP line. I think we were in the 2nd to the last row. We do love 💕 this ride! Andi likes this one but not as much as I do. D really enjoys this one.

Next, I made a Smuggler’s Run FP.

We went into GE. I got a few pictures done. D didn’t want to join in the picture. I had a mando and Grogu shirt on.

We checked out Rise and the SR line was long and the SB line was over an hour so we passed.

We decided to have an early lunch in GE. We each had a Ronto wrap. This was D’s first time trying this and she really liked it.

We actually got a seat in the market area to eat our lunch.

Once lunch was finished, we decided to really check out GE. It was really fun going into the shops. The theming is really amazing. I sent a bunch of pictures to Jack. He really loves Star Wars.

The mom and her son had a good time being the gunners! He was very excited 😊

I think being pilots is the best way to enjoy this ride.

We decided to head out of GE and guess who we got a glimpse of? Mando and Grogu! It was a quick peek 🫣 before we left.

We had MMRR up next. This ride is always a fun one, and we really enjoyed it. I still miss The Great Movie Ride. A mom and a little girl (3-4)years old shared the row with us. The girl was a little nervous especially with the wind blowing in the one area. She did seem to like it a little better in some spots, overall she did cry more than laugh 😆

We decided to do the Beauty and Beast show next. I haven’t seen this show in many years.

We really enjoyed the show. I’m glad we made time for some live entertainment this trip.

Here are a few pictures from the show.

We decided to head out after this to have a little rest before our dinner and extra hours in Epcot.

A boat was waiting for us, yay 😀 We saw a few turtles and fish in the water as we walked by.


Follow me to the next post……
Looks like a fun start to the your day at Studios! I've never been a pilot on MF so good for Donna that she gave it a try. I think I would be a little scared. I enjoy the Beauty and the Beast show but haven't seen it in a few years either. I'm always so drawn to the Frozen show. Looking forward to hearing about Cake Bake and your Epcot adventures!
 
This was Parmesan crusted chicken breasts served with lemon caper pasta and arugula. This was very good and a big portion so it was really shareable. It was light for a pasta dish. Next we ordered the dessert.
That is a big portion and it looks yummy.

The cake has so much frosting! I wonder if the restaurant will be there when I get back to the parks.
We headed to our FP rides. We did SE, Soarin, LWtL, Nemo, and Mission Space (green), D really likes this. I think it is fine nothing great. We did Figment last. It was getting close to park closing. We walked through Journey of Water. This really is beautiful at night.
Agreed! I love Journey of Water but especially so at night!
Instead we walked to France and rode Remy twice! D does love this one! The wait was around 15 minutes the first time and less than that the second time. :bounce:
I am looking forward to riding Remy at DLP and dining at his restaurant!
Got to love a spring blizzard 🥶 said no one! 🤪
Ugh! Looking out the window right now and it is snowing again!!! On April 11th!!:snooty:
Andi and I are very excited for our early September trip. I can’t wait to explore the park. I am especially excited for HP Ministry of Magic and Darkmoor, the classic monster area with the ride Monsters Unchained! This looks amazing!
You are going to have so much fun!

I think you'll enjoy CBR. Go to Banana Cabana and have a piece of that delicious bread pudding for me. :)
 
I have been watching so many videos and ride previews of Epic Universe! I am so excited!

I have too! Can't wait to see it all.

I am hoping to meet up with Vanessa @vamassey1 and Molly @Mollydolly334

Fingers crossed. I still have no plans that Saturday.

I didn’t make any dining reservations nope not a one! I’m hoping I can maybe have dinner with Vanessa and Molly one night if it works out.

We have no reservations either. It feels so strange, but also freeing.
 
I will move over to CBR for 4 nights. I have requested a room close to the Skyliner. I plan to spend time at Epcot enjoying the F&G so the Skyliner resort is perfect.
It would be nice if Caribbean Resort had a booking category that puts you close to the Skyliner. Then I might consider staying there. :)
 
Andi and I are very excited for our early September trip. I can’t wait to explore the park.
So exciting! Hoping you do a report so I can follow along. It will be lovely for you and Andi to take a trip together again.
I will be at Disney and maybe a quick hop over to the OG Universal! I am hoping to meet up with Vanessa @vamassey1 and Molly @Mollydolly334
Fingers crossed you all manage to meet up and tell the rest of us all about it. Not long to go now!
 
I have been watching so many videos and ride previews of Epic Universe!
I have purposely stayed off so that when, someday, I actually get there, it'll be fresh and unspoiled. I did think about using my days before we meet up to head over there after my conference mornings, but the costs just seem like a lot with having to add Ubers back and forth plus tix. Plus, I get some nice partial day ticket deal through the conference for Disney, so will probably just stay on property and do shorter days there.
I am hoping to meet up with Vanessa @vamassey1 and Molly @Mollydolly334
What a lovely couple of Meets that will be!
The honey almond cold brew. I will picking this up at least once!
That sounds absolutely amazing!!!! :drinking1
 
Now there's a title!
Haha, Like you said I have a with words! :rotfl:
I have so much to learn.
Not going to bother, since by the time I get back there again, it will have all changed again. :laughing:
Yes, if not going any time soon, everything will be different except for the wonderful classic OG attractions :love:
This is your lot in life. Don't try to fight it.
It is! I keep thinking I am going to get a better score and I NEVER DO!
Those things are ridiculously good.
I love the Ronto wrap, the combination of pork, sausage and coleslaw is delicious
If that doesn't do it, I don't know what would!
That is what I thought. I would convince Jack with all the SW themes! I have to report so far no dice 🎲
Glad it worked out for everyone. :)
It was fun and I got it after the ride why the teen boy couldn’t do the Pilot role, he go very excited and shaking his arms all around with the gunner role.
Yay!
And I'm sorry... for those people who get annoyed at less than perfect pilots... Go jump in a lake.
Exactly! Just relax and enjoy it haha 🤣
Nope! Maybe $6... and even that is pushing it!
The prices were crazy in the bakery!🧁
No idea about this. Never been.
This is the old ESPN restaurant on the Boardwalk. Here is a picture from our friend google
1744566247249.jpeg
Oh??? Was it sweet?
It was not sweet tea but it was so fresh and delicious I looked up on the menu and it doesn’t describe the tea at all :confused3 just iced tea!
For $23, it better be perfect. I think I would have been very tempted to send it back
I wouldn’t get cake again there, to expensive and not perfect in every way
I was very disappointed with it. I wish they'd left the ride (sans spinning) the same as orange. It doesn't make sense now.
I agree. I liked when we went to the moon on the green side.
You're an expert now!
I was starting to have the first song memorized
That's unfortunate. Everyone can have a bad day, but... you just don't expect that from "Cast members who are on stage"
I have noticed this more and more, sad 😢
Spring can get off its butt and get over here any time now!
(Thanks for sharing the pics
No kidding, we did have 55 degrees yesterday but tomorrow rain mixed with snow, yuck 🤮
We once arrived right at general opening, and it took almost 1/2 hour to get into the park. It is the worst park if you miss early entry.
Ugh 😣 DHS is such a mess at opening. I hope they come up with a different plan
I had heard a lot of good things about a Ronto wrap. We finally tried one and were not impressed. It didn't help that it was overcooked.
Oh I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy it! I have always had a good one!
We love that ride. I always notice something new in there.
I’m not as mad about it replacing the GMR now
We finally saw this show for the first time in ages. We thought it was pretty good.
I really enjoyed the show!
It sounds like you had a good table and the chicken picata looks delicious.
It really was good but definitely pricey
That is a really short wait time for Remy. :)
It was and to get two rides was really nice!
 
You're almost convincing me to get a beer.
Maybe I will in October!
They just never get old.
It is crazy how such corney jokes and an old ride is really popular. It is such a favorite and true Walt Disney all the way!
Aww, you'll be such a cute and fun addition to the Happy Haunts!
I would love to inhabit the HM in the great beyond!
As a certified Disney Bathroom Expert, I concur.
I am the same way, did you find the bathrooms very inconsistent with cleanliness in December? I happened upon several really dirty ones! So sad 😭
WOWZA! That's awesome!
It really was!
I have one almost every trip. I'd rather split one with someone since they're so big, but YUM!!!
I do enjoy a Ronto wrap. We can split one so we have more stomach space for other treats!
It's the ONLY way to enjoy this ride.
Pilots all the way!
I'd be willing to try it with a friend (or two!) WAY too big and $$ for just me, but I'd do it mostly for the ambiance- what a lovely venue!
I would definitely eat there again!
I have a favor to ask for our upcoming trip in October for this ride... please be open! Remind me when the time comes!
It is open now! Yay 😀
Now that I've seen it during the day, now I need to go at night!!!!
It is beautiful at night with SE in the background and all the lights around the water features
The Cake Bake Shop looks so pretty - but those prices??!! Nope. Not gonna happen.
It is pricey, splitting everything makes it a little more affordable I would probably eat there again!
as much as I love Studios, it is kind of the worst all around - hard to get in to, doesn't handle crowds as well as other parks, very limited rides for someone who can't do the "thrill" stuff (my aunt can basically only ride TSM and MMRR.) This park needs some love.
I agree, hopefully adding a new LM show and the Villians show will help out!
I'm guessing D was not up for another ride on TOT.
You know it, she still talks about it, lol 😂
Very cool shot. Love your shirt.
Thank you 😊 I love Mando and Grogu
There is so much to see here.
The theming is amazing and you could spend hours checking out all the Easter eggs and SW gadgets
You have more courage than me. I'm ok with sitting in the back.
Haha 🤣 I am not good as a pilot but it is fun and I am better than some I have been with!
This looks delicious.
It was very good, I would go back!
We missed it too in January.
I love the boat ride in Mexico, we always ride!
So pretty!!! Can't wait to see it next month.
Same! I’m getting excited for a nice little getaway. Should we try to meet up on the 24th? I hope it works out for us
It really is. I like to visit during the day to play and at night just to see the beauty.
I love it at night!
 
I hope you take tons of pictures and tell us all about it!
I will I am so excited for Epic, I thought many of the rides would not work for me but I do think I can do more than I organize thought
That sure would be nice.
Dis meets are the best!
Looks like a fun start to the your day at Studios! I've never been a pilot on MF so good for Donna that she gave it a try.
It was fun and more interactive then the other roles!
I enjoy the Beauty and the Beast show but haven't seen it in a few years either. I'm always so drawn to the Frozen show
Frozen is so good. I think I will do that in May! It was nice to see Beauty and the Beast
That is a big portion and it looks yummy.
It was plenty for two people
The cake has so much frosting! I wonder if the restaurant will be there when I get back to the parks.
It did have a ton of frosting but it was so silky smooth and delicious not sickly sweet! I sure hope it is there and we get to visit together!
Agreed! I love Journey of Water but especially so at night!
It is beautiful at night, my favorite time to visit!
 
I am looking forward to riding Remy at DLP and dining at his restaurant!
I would be excited as well! The restaurant looks amazing! I can’t wait to hear all about it!
Ugh! Looking out the window right now and it is snowing again!!! On April 11th!!:snooty:
We finally had a really nice Saturday, now it is raining ☔️ at least rain, tomorrow it is going to be rain/snow mix, ugh 😣
You are going to have so much fun!
Epic looks absolutely amazing and I can’t wait, we are dedicating 3 full days to the park
I think you'll enjoy CBR. Go to Banana Cabana and have a piece of that delicious bread pudding for me.
I’m excited for it and I will definitely try to get over to Banana Cabana for the bread pudding!
I have too! Can't wait to see it all.
I will have to get your thoughts once you are going so soon!
Fingers crossed. I still have no plans that Saturday.
I hope we can meet upon Saturday!
We have no reservations either. It feels so strange, but also freeing.
It did feel good but very strange
It would be nice if Caribbean Resort had a booking category that puts you close to the Skyliner. Then I might consider staying there.
It did have it as a request so I checked that.
So exciting! Hoping you do a report so I can follow along. It will be lovely for you and Andi to take a trip together again.
I am so excited for this new park! I’m sure I will write a report! I am really excited to spend the time with Andi!
Fingers crossed you all manage to meet up and tell the rest of us all about it. Not long to go now!
I sure hope so!
I have purposely stayed off so that when, someday, I actually get there, it'll be fresh and unspoiled. I did think about using my days before we meet up to head over there after my conference mornings, but the costs just seem like a lot with having to add Ubers back and forth plus tix. Plus, I get some nice partial day ticket deal through the conference for Disney, so will probably just stay on property and do shorter days there.
You have more control than me! I really wanted to hear about some of the rides because I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to ride but I think I will be fine! So far no info about if we can add the park to AP or not? That would be something I would be interested in.
What a lovely couple of Meets that will be!
Yes I sure hope we can make it work
That sounds absolutely amazing!!!!
This honey almond cold brew is my all time favorite! I love it!
