I love it!! Maybe you could just pull it out and not say anything. I'm sure the sister would run with it and no trust is broken - you just innocently set a ring on the table.
LOL I think that's what I'm going to do! My nephews are visiting now from Ga. The 6yo would love to come pick out a ring with me and he's actually pretty good about keeping secrets. It'd be a fun quick trip for him and I!
Boys...I say get the ring. Moms are there to embarrass the kids...
builds character (and trip reports??)
I'm VERY good at embarrassing my boys, in fact if you asked them they'd probably say that's my best "mom" attribute
It would certainly make for a great TR update!
Of 2 girls and 1 boy only my oldest is that into Disney princesses. My middle DD is much more into thrill rides, HP etc. She goes along but It is really not her thing.
We did 1900 PF way back in 2004-I thought it was great! We generally don't do many character meals-I do have 2 booked on upcoming trip but will likely cancel one (TH) and keep GG.
Of my 3-only my oldest is into meets and greets. The rest go along and indulge mama (including DH). I AM meeting Gaston this trip though LOL.
I'm hoping to finally meet Gaston too. I want the boys to come up and meet him with me but so far, no go. They both loved M&G's when they were younger and honestly, if Ricky weren't around I believe Chris would still do quite a few, but he needs to feel "cool" in front of his older brother. Last Nov. when Chris and I went down a few days before Steve and Ricky, we did GG just the 2 of us and Chris was very happy meeting the characters
Happy birthday to mom! You both look fantastic!
Thank you
I've always wanted to try the fried green tomato sandwich too. I think it looks really good!
Doesn't it?? I had no idea it existed until
@pepperandchips dining report!
I've been here twice and have had great meals and interactions both times. The food is solid, and I like the strawberry soup, which is essentially a smoothie. I hope you find it enjoyable!
I remember your latest review of it with strange looking Prince Charming. In fact in all reviews I've seen Prince Charming is always looking a bit.....off lol. So I'm anxious to see how our friend of PC looks
Yes it's a law that bread service must be had at Sanaa! My kids were too excited to eat much(well the oldest can always eat) as we sat by the window and had some large bird entertain us.
Both our lunches we've had great luck with animals out the windows and both times there's been a big bird right by the window
I prefer the orange (grand marnier?) slushes, I
might have carried my resort mug into park to take one of those cooling drinks back to quiet pool at Beach Club
. What happens at Beach Club stays at Beach Club
WHY haven't I thought of that before?? In all our stays at the Epcot resorts too
Don't worry, I won't tell anyone where I got the idea
We should also think about making the magic band Christmas wreath.We're getting pretty close to wreath-level hoarding. We'll have more than enough once this trip is over with all our crazy resort hopping because we didn't decline magic bands for a single one of those reservations!!
OMG yes, after all your resort stays next month you can totally make that MB wreath
And if you have any doubts, you can ask your wedding guests to donate there MB's after the trip!
I know you said you got ponchos already, but we started using the disposable ones from
Amazon a few trips ago. They are much smaller to carry around, then you just throw them away instead of trying to dry them out.
Hmm, might check those out! I hate drying the ponchos out and rather just bring like, 3 of the ones I buy for each of us but Steve insists on drying them. Very annoying to hang on a balcony, especially if it continues to rain HARD, and like, sideways.
Do you know how far out Flight of Passage is booking out? Just trying to figure out when we should try to get it on our trip.
I know I already told you this but for anyone else, try booking towards the END of your trip first, and try planning on FoP for later in the day. It's hard to get for the morning. Hopefully this will change soon but right now, it is what it is. Like trying to get BOG at the beginning of your trip lol
I love that wreath! Super cute. Maybe someday I can make one...but after our first trip with MB's I threw them away (what was wrong with me?!). So right now I've only got one set
. But I've got time!
I can't even find a few of ours but still have like.................idk 40??? You'll get there
YAY! I noticed that you're at the 3 week mark earlier...
Now it's less than 20 days
Yeah... I'm gearing up for this too and need to find a new poncho myself. I haven't been in August since 2009 so I'm a little out of practice
Oh you have to bring a poncho. Another rule besides getting the bread service at Sanaa is that if you don't bring a poncho it'll rain every single day. If you bring a poncho - well, you get my drift lol.
I couldn't get any for my August trip either
Ugh, that sucks! I have to make fp's for some more Sept. clients soon and I'm dreading trying to get them FoP. Are you going to try going on it at RD?
It's been ages since I've done this one... maybe depending on the heat I'll go for it this trip... or not...
It's not my favorite because I find it boring but when I'm disgustingly hot and sweaty it sounds like a good idea. And then I'm in one of the seats that stays dry!
I hope the boys like Pandora. Do they know about the trip?
They do! It's too hard for me to keep the trips a secret now at their ages. They DON'T know about Pirates and Pals though
Or 1900 Park Fare dinner
Hi Ariane! First off, I LOVE the new DOONEY!!!!
I'm happily carrying around with me!
Second, totally eat at The Plaza. The fried green tomato sandwich was to die for!!!!! I LOVED it!
You pretty much have me convinced! Plus I watched "Fried Green Tomatoes" again over the weekend so..............lol
Third, I finally had one of the slushies in France and LOVED it too. It was pink, cold, full of alcohol and delicious, but I can't remember the name of it...Help me out...
Was it still during F&G? Because then it would have been the La Vie En Rose from the France booth, that one is pink and divine!
I've been wanting to see that! I love Amy Poehler!
You'll love it then! She's hysterical as always.
The character interactions makes up for the food in my opinion! I'm hoping you will video this!!
Oooh, good idea! Let me pile on the embarrassment
I haven't been in summer before. But when it rains, hopefully it isn't for very long usually right? I
USUALLY not; usually they're shorter storms but they can be short torrential downpours. Once or twice they've lasted for an hour or more and those have been later at night, like 8pm or later. That doesn't mean the long ones can't happen earlier but yes, in my experience the last 3 Augusts the afternoon storms don't last too long
Bring those ponchos though!
I loved these guys last time we went. Hoping my DD will have the patience to listen a bit. It was perfect before because we were in a line to meet Winnie the Pooh and they were playing outside, made the line much more enjoyable!
I hope you can get her to at least sit through maybe 3 or so songs! Unfortunately no more Pooh meets but if you can get a seat in the shade, maybe she won't mind
Your update reminds me that I need to buy ponchos...
lol glad I reminded you! Like I said above, if you forget the ponchos the rain WILL come!
