Trip Report 30 Disney First's to Celebrate my 30th Birthday! January '13 Trip Report.

Hellooooo Humans! Welcome to my 30th birthday trip report. On this trip it was myself, my mom, my nanny and my best friend joined in for a few days! He will be making his first appearance in my trip reports.

A little preview of my birthday photo shoot!

And some MGM, I mean Hollywood Studios love!

Funny story goes with this picture when we get to that day!


We stayed at Pop Century from January 13th-20th. We had a preferred pool view, because my nanny said that she needed a good view. Not that she spent much time taking advantage of the view. LOL.

We had free dining, but also had quite a few meals that we paid for out of pocket using my Tables in Wonderland card. We had 12 meals booked in total. I was using my Annual Pass again, so was my mom. My nanny used our tickets from the free dining package.

We pre-purchased the PhotoPass+. Overall I enjoyed it. I loved having my pictures from the meals and Buzz Lightyear.

Over the course of the trip, we noticed that there were a lot of firsts happening. Thus, the title of this here trip report! I will try to remember to highlight each first in pink. Maybe ya'll can help me count along. We may even reach more than 30!

My nanny and I headed over to visit Art of Animation.



I had second dinner at Art of Animation. I ordered the Create your Own Pasta. It was delish!! I wanna go back there soon!

The gelato was Yumm-O! I want some more now!!

It was now time for bed. Tomorrow was our last day. Sad face!

I love the photo spot in Italy! i don't think I've ever noticed anyone there before!!!!!

And that photo inbetween the buildings in Italy remind me of Taylor Swift's "Love Story" where she's on a balcony like that. I need to get a picture of that next time. All your pics of World Showcase make me miss it...I think I miss that part of WDW most right now....EPCOT has moved much higher on my favorite park list in recent years...

OMG I love those Nachos from POP! I remember always sharing those with my mom!

That was the first time I ever remember seeing someone over in that area.

I had to wait for some people to leave the area, and frame it just right, but I finally got it! I do like World Showcase. But we are only spending one day in Epcot this trip. At least we will make the last day of the Flower and Garden Festival!

I love the Nachos!!! And the pizza! And the create your own pasta!! Okay, I loved everything I ate that night.

I'm about to post the last day, which means I can start on the Cruise report!!!! I've even started uploading pics for that report.

I love meeting Chip and Dale. They are always so fun.





Rapunzel's Tower. I watched this movie the other night. I forgot just how much I love Tangled.





Grim Grinning Ghosts

Come out to socialize!

 

[jesemeca]

I feel like I'm getting slightly better each time I try taking pictures in the Haunted Mansion. I get very excited when the ride stops. Makes it easier to take pics.











Nap time in the Hall of Presidents!

 

[jesemeca]

The Stepmother and Stepsisters were hilarious! They asked about my birthday button. Wanting to know when the party was and if they were invited.



I was very excited about my score on Buzz!!

 

[jesemeca]

I love Carousel of Progress! It's one of my faves!



Photoshoot time!











Another photoshoot. Be prepared. Many pics coming!

Best lunch ever! The All American. Chocolate and vanilla ice cream with hot fudge and peanut butter sauce! Can I get another one right now? Please!







We were lucky to get a seat at the table in front of the Plaza Ice Cream Parlor, facing Main Street. We were behind the crowds, but it was great to have a seat for the parade.

 

[jesemeca]

@PartOfYourWorld , I think we might "know" Prince Charming. What you think?













My mom and the train. (Wearing her favorite Disney shirt ever! I told her she has to wear that one for the 24 hour party!)

 

[jesemeca]

I asked for a birthday bowl of ice cream instead of another cupcake. It even came with cute red, white and blue sprinkles!













After dinner my mom and nanny went back to the room. I started to roam around until it was time for MSEP and Wishes.
