YES! We actually can get something similar now, but these are so good! I ate just a tad too much.Me, it would be tater tots. I can get something close enough to cinnamon rolls here, but I can’t get tater tots
We have already had to stop at first aid to get E some ibuprofen for her ankle. In line for
Safari.
There was a guy wearing his pants below his bum... Seriously, you could see his cheeks. I mean he was wearing boxer briefs but why even wear pants then? What's the point? Poor E got an eye full because I had her sitting on a rock until the switchback and while she was sitting there, he stopped right in front of her and his rear was right in her face.
We got out just in time to sign in to our Caring For Giants tour. That was slightly disappointing. You drive out to a back stage area of the safari and look at them slightly closer up, but that's it. And I was really hoping to see Nadirah, but we didn't. Then it started to pour again... My shoes are soaked again.
Now we're at Nomad lounge eating the churros and drinking the hibiscus henna... So good!

I hope her ankle is better quickly. If you have an Amazon account you can get a brace delivered to the resort if need be
She's got a brace with her. The big problem is that she has blisters on her pinky toes because her shoes got wet. So she was walking weirdly. And that strained her ankle.

Do they have any COMPEED in the resort store? Although much more expensive than Dr. Scholl’s or regular bandaids, they are worth the price. I know you said you used mole skin the other day but that you both still ended up with blisters. My experience has been once I already have a blister moleskin doesn’t help much but COMPEED does. It’s waterproof too and usually stays on long enough for the blister to heal (or at least long enough so that it is no longer painful).
I didn't see any compeed there. And they haven't been able to get bandaids in.

If you need bandaids go to first aid when you are at the parks they will usually give you some when you explain what it is for. I have gotten them before and Tylenol too, no charge. They don’t give you a huge supply but enough for immediate needs.

Wish I could send you some - last year when I got a HUGE blister I was grateful that I always have some at home.

I hope E's ankle won't interfere too much with her walking today.
About the guy's pants -- didn't that exposed "style" go "out" -- years ago??!!
It's amazing to me what they allow in the parks. We've seen lots of...choices.I hope E's ankle won't interfere too much with her walking today.

So last night after nomad lounge, we went over to ride Dinosaur since we had never done it. Never again. What's the point of the herky jerky movements? It's not like it makes it more authentic or something. It's just painful and annoying.
Then we went to Yak and Yeti for dinner. We got wok fried green beans and honey chicken to share. The park closes at 7 so we called it a night and did laundry. We slept in a bit this morning.

We've kind of taken it easy today. We didn't get to MK until around 10. I wish the pools were open before 10! We shared a waffle with Nutella and fruit for breakfast and then went on Carrots. I wanted to do the pirate adventure but it wasn't open until noon. Small world said 10 minutes before we did carrots, but then it was already 35.so we went on Little Mermaid. I waved in the appropriate spot.
We did carousel of progress, then did the people mover. As we were approaching the end, I said to E, "can't we just stay here and take a nap?" and the CM must have heard me, because she said we could stay on. So we did.
We had lunch at Pecos Bill. We shared the pork carnitas nachos.
We did monsters Inc laughter floor at some point. And got a joffreys donut and a pretzel with cheese. Then we did a round in the resort line monorail and then took a boat to wilderness lodge.
E made some little friends at the boat dock. The adults were obviously tired, the kids were bored and grouching at each other, so e kept them entertained. When we got off the boat, they grabbed her hand and we just had to follow. Apparently the little boy said maybe she could stay with them tonight. So sweet. She told him she couldn't because there were lizards at our hotel that would miss us if we didn't come back tonight. They pulled her all the way to the elevator and I said it looked like she has been adopted, it was fun being her mom, and the boy says You're coming with us now" and one of the adults said "she's got a whole life!" so they hugged her goodbye and headed off to their room and we went in search of geyser point. They would not let me get just the black cherry Margherita, so I had to get the whole flight. The cucumber melon does indeed taste like pickles. Yuck. But I didn't really like any of them. Salty and sour and I didn't get black cherry Flavor. E wanted smell them and we kind of got in trouble because she's underage, even though she wasn't drinking it.
And now we're just relaxing at WL.

Totally! We're having a great time! It's nice to just be able to decide where we want to go without someone complaining that the line is too long, the food doesn't sound good, etc. And we don't have to feel bad about dragging anyone on rides they don't want to do. It's fantastic!
Rope drop ROR. We were first to enter the park, but now we are at ROR waiting for early entry to actually start so we can get in. It's 7:45 and it's already super stuffy and I could use a fan.
Well that was a one and done. Had to close my eyes at the end so I didn't get sick. Not fun. TOT is down so we're doing MRR
So we had a LL for smugglers run, but just as our window opened, it went down. It's too early to make another LL and it hasn't changed to multi experience one and even when it does, we can't use it for anything else we want to do here. We already did toy story mania, don't like the other TS rides, can't use it on TOT, and we're waiting for the frozen sing-along now. We have an ADR for 50s Prime Time at 1, then we'll park hop. We're going to cancel our 2nd HS park day because this park sucks now. We aren't married to doing Sci Fi, so we'll cancel it and go to epcot instead. More time for food and wine.

Sorry the Studios isn't a hit with you too. How did you like Mickey's? If you are looking for a place to relax, don't forget about the Baseline Taphouse. My niece really likes the special soda there, I think it is hibiscus and I guess there are free refills. I don't think you are a beer person but my husband likes the California Sunset cocktail and I've had their margarita and it is good plain margarita. It might be a refreshing respite for you two.
I could cry. We did frozen, then went to book our next lightning lane, but we've done everything in HS that we want to do and the LL in epcot aren't up to 2pm except test track, which we don't want to do. So we can't do anything. The app won't let me move up our ADR, so we're just stuck here. We're watching Muppets just for something to do.
