Disney Flower & Garden Day 4 (April 2017)

We’d had a bad breakfast at Cape May Cafe, but we’d passed Trattoria Al Forno and seen that they had an interesting looking breakfast (Bon Voyage Adventure Breakfast) – . We took a chance on it. It was also a character breakfast but the food was OMG good and not a crappy buffet. Highly recommend. The characters were Ariel and … Continue Reading →

Disney Flower & Garden Day 3 (April 2017)

We started Day 3 with breakfast at the Cape May Cafe – we’d had breakfast there in the past and really liked it, but the food was awful this time. They had gotten rid of the crepe bar, and a lot of the food was cold, the bacon super greasy and congealed… it just was bad. And it was so … Continue Reading →

Disney Flower & Garden Day 2 (April 2017)

Day 2 of Flower & Garden & Food! We started out the morning at Hollywood Studios, checking out the Star Wars stuff. I love the jawas – and you can trade with them. I’d brought stuff to trade, but it must have been to early and they didn’t have anything to trade me for! Oh well. I got new light … Continue Reading →

Disney Flower & Garden Day 1 (April 2017)

In April, Doug and I took a long weekend at Disney for Flower & Garden (and food). We were really hoping for a relaxing stay because the previous time we had been there, we were waiting on some news, and I was jumpy and stressed the whole time we were there, which made it hard to enjoy. And it ended … Continue Reading →

Disney Food & Wine, Day 4

Our last day we headed to Animal Kingdom in the morning. Some nice views of the Tree of Life: Find the heron: Okapi – the nicest view we’ve had of one: A little snack! One more view of the Tree of Life: We also, of course, went on Everest twice. Great ride. Then it was over to Epcot to finish … Continue Reading →

Disney Food & Wine, Day 3

Day three at Disney found us at Magic Kingdom in the morning. Did I mention I really like Halloween? The hall of presidents had a new replica first lady gown. This is a circa 1810 silk velvet replica of a Dolley Madison gown. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a gown like this is silk velvet? Interesting! A friend of … Continue Reading →

Disney Food & Wine, Day 2

On to Day 2 of our trip. We got up, put on Halloween shirts, got a Starbucks breakfast, and headed out for a morning at Hollywood Studios. We had lunch/early dinner at Epcot, then hit Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween party for the evening. I love the decor at Tower of Terror! I’m so glad the one in Florida isn’t … Continue Reading →

Disney Food & Wine, Day 1

We had plans to hit up Disney Food & Wine this fall for much needed long weekend away. We were able to get our awesome vet tech to med Willow and we arranged for her to be fed while we were gone – plus she was way more stable than the last time we did this. So off we went … Continue Reading →

A Disney evening

This was not our best visit to Disney. We were in Florida for the annual family vacation and thought we’d fly in, head to Disney for the afternoon/evening before heading out to the beach. This was supposed to be a bit of a treat since we’d had a rough start to our year. Doug bought the tickets online, linked what … Continue Reading →

Disney Weekend, part 3

Our last morning! Post race, we headed back into the resort. Doug and I last minute got a reservation for breakfast at the Cape May cafe! Yay Mickey waffles! You could eat all the tiny crepes you wanted! After breakfast, we walked around the Yacht Club for a while and then managed to meet up with everyone else who was … Continue Reading →

Disney Weekend, part 2

Day 2 at Disney – we hit Animal Kingdom first thing in the morning and got right on Everest. Doug was even brave enough to snap a picture and not lose his phone! Breakfast of champions: Our view: I think this is Conley’s pic from over at Hollywood Studios – Captain Phasma! Then back to Epcot for lunch. Spicy Hot … Continue Reading →

Disney Weekend, part 1

Doug and I took our first vacation since the previous July, and after a bunch of rough personal stuff (which included a very sick cat that precluded any time out of town), we finally got away for a weekend. Many, many thanks to my parents for staying with Willow for most of the weekend. Doug was running the Star Wars … Continue Reading →
