Our first trip my youngest literally decided to potty train the week before we left! Oye! But it sounds like Natalia is doing great so far!Once she arrived we brought her inside, so she could potty and change clothes (yes, we are in the middle of potty training right now)
This is why I would almost always prefer to check bags. I end up being that sweaty gross person walking through the airport and get to the gate a complete and utter mess!You see, our trip wasn’t very long so we had only brought carry on suitcases. But with three carry on suitcases, three purses or “personal items”, a stroller, a CARES harness, and a two-year old, walking through the airport was a disaster and security was very intimidating.
My girls still love the videos!Natalia loved the bus and really loved the video they were playing.
Yum! Looks delish!I. Pizza is one of Natalia’s favorite foods. I ordered Natalia a plain cheese pizza and my mom and I both had the Red Vine pizza. Absolutely delicious! I also really liked the lemonade. I would eat here again in a heartbeat! Here’s a few pics of our dinner:
Travel day will do that to you!
In case you can't tell, Natalia gave it her stamp of approval by attacking that pizza!
My daughter and I picked the same ears!ears for Natalia and I.
How scary! The whole thing is kind of scary but that would def shake me a bit!Little did we know that we were sitting in the exact seats that were impacted by the shattered window. Natalia was in the seat where the lady had been fatally injured. So very scary to think that it could have been us experiencing such a tragedy instead of having fun at Walt Disney World!
This is what we have found works best, that way we can take turns getting ready and eating.took a quick shower and threw on some clothes. With wet hair and no makeup I made the trek to the food court to pickup breakfast for the crew. Since the food court had been so crowded the previous day we decided it would just be better to just send one of us down to pickup food and then eat it in our room
So Cute!
Your not missing anything by not seeing he movie. I really don't know why people are waiting so long for Navi Journey Boat Ride. It's nice but def not worth the long wait.I definitely would not have waited 120 minutes for it! It may just be that I didn’t understand it because I haven’t seen the movie, but still.
Too Bad. Finding Nemo is an amazing show! But there will always be something for next time that way!We chose the latter of the two options because Natalia really needed to cool off and rest. I was so sad to have to give up this fastpass because we didn’t get to do Finding Nemo the Musical on our last trip either due to a similar situation. I really think Natalia would have loved it!
What a great CM.Kelly said she was drawn to the table by Natalia who was making cute faces at her. She had asked my mom how her day was going and my mom very honestly told her that we had been facing a lot of disappointment. She took the time to listen to the entire story of our day and proclaimed that it was completely unacceptable to have a day like this at WDW. She brought us a piece of chocolate cake and directed us to guest relations at the front of the park. She apologized numerous times on behalf of Disney and encouraged us to go tell the story to guest relations so they could take the charges off of my credit card for the reservation. After thanking Kelly many times, my mom went and got herself a chicken Caesar salad as well.
Too bad it was followed up by a not so great CM.ccording to her, we should have taken a bus from ASMusic to DHS then transferred to a Beach Club bus or taken a boat. Well, we could have done that too but AK is only five minutes away from our resort so it was technically faster to do it that way. We still would have hit the same traffic. She made some rude comment about us not being willing to take her advice and promised that the charges would be removed from our account. She left us with the comment “and next time, use other transportation”.
You deserved it!I went in search of some adult beverages. I got a strawberry/mango/lime margarita and I got my mom a lime one.
Well That looks amazing!Just for grins and giggles I took a picture of the Mexican Fruit Punch, non-alcoholic of course, that I bought for Natalia. We settled in and took some selfies to pass the time.
Well, you got a great pic of the 2 of you!My mom was being a party pooper and didn’t want in the picture…
I think Chef Mickey gets a bad rep. We ate there once. I mean it's not amazing food. But it's fine. And super fun!Chef Mickey's Review: Prior to coming on this trip, I almost canceled this ADR because I had read so many negative reviews on here. I am so very glad I didn't! I have very fond memories of this place from when I was a child and it lived up to those memories on this trip. Natalia got to spend a lot of time with each of the characters and we all enjoyed our food and dancing to the music. I would go back in a heartbeat!
Friday April 20th
This morning was our early wake-up time. My alarm went of at 6:15 am and I jumped up to take my shower. Then, like every other morning, I got Natalia ready while my mom got ready herself. We had an 8:25 am breakfast ADR at Chef Mickey’s to get to! Luckily there was morning extra magic hours for Magic Kingdom, so the buses were running early. We were at the bus stop around 7 am with a bus arriving shortly thereafter. Once we got off the bus at Magic Kingdom we went through security then hung a hard right to walk on over to the Contemporary. Given that we actually had good luck with the bus on this morning, we had plenty of time to spare before our ADR so we looked around the shops and went out on one of the decks to watch some boats. We finally checked in around 8:15 am and took our entrance picture! My mom was being a party pooper and didn’t want in the picture…
As soon as we were done with our photo op our buzzer was going off and we were quickly seated. We took turns getting some food from the buffet and before we knew it we had a few visitors…….
