Trip Report Corn Dogs & Margaritas... Live!! *Complete!*

So I'm sitting here in the sunshine at the Boardwalk, after dropping our rental car off at the Dolphin (been in Orlando a week visiting the "other" parks- shhh! And the beach ) and after picking up strawberry margaritas and some corn dogs, whilst thinking what to name my live trip report... well I looked down and there you go!

So, I'll post more later and a bit about us and the trip from our resort (Coronado Springs! Yaaaay!), but for now I'll bid you adieu and hope you'll follow me along on my Disney (Birthday! ) adventure that will DEFINITELY involve many photos of food and drink and disney awesomeness!!

YAAAAAAAaaaaaaaayyyyyy...!!

I will report properly on this evening tomorrow as I'm a liiiiiitle tired and... tipsy... *cough more than tipsy* right now... but I had to post to say...

I MET ARIEL!!!!

I MET FRICKIN' ARIEL!!!!

Love the matching Ariel ear hat & sandals combo! V cute!!

Ah thanks! When I picked up the flip flops before the holiday (and before I even found the hat!) I thought they were a perfect Ariel colour!

The picture with Ariel & the castle looks awesome! We debated getting FPs for the Festival of Fantasy parade & ultimately didn't....the castle right in the background is tempting though!

I'd say it's worth it once and if it's a busy day... But really today there were still plenty of good spaces free outside of our reserved area at the time we checked in, so if you have a ride you want guaranteed don't worry about FoF FP!

I was at POFQ last month. A much better comparable is POR to CS. When I was CS I was in the Ranch area, way the heck out there!

Yes we have visited POR and like it (especially for the magic cookie bar! Lol!) but something about Coronado just wins it for us... We really missed it last time! Might be because it was our first experience onsite or maybe it's just a better fit for us... But either way we're happy to be back! (But yes I can see how you were far out- even building 5 for us in Casitas seems much further away than building 4 was!)

Oh and notice my nails?? They lasted 2 days ha ha! The bows pinged off and I chipped more than a couple mickeys and well I'm a bit OCD so cleaned them all off! I've got a bunch of bows left though... If I can be bothered to do them again!

No unfortunately- we're not good with early early starts! But we WILL be there this evening for as late as we can make it, perhaps see 6am from the other side!
