Trip Report What Happens After the Girls Cruise…

I’m finally writing part 2!! Woo hoo!! It’s taken me forever to get to this part! So sorry for those that have waited patiently. Life, holidays and a few other trips slowed me down. This is part 2 of my girls’ cruise trip report. And while there is no actual cruising in this part, there are several girls’ cruisers, and a few other WDWMagic members, who make appearances!

Who: Me! And some other members! Like I said. Here I am with my roomie for the week @DisneyHeather:



When: September 13-18, 2013

What: 6 Nights at the Contemporary

Why: Well because it’s Disney of course. But also because of a work trip. The work trip followed the girls’ cruise by just a few days, so it seemed silly to go all the way home. Am I right?

Then we were back outside!

After our tour was over, we went back to the room to get ready for dinner. And I think we may have snuck in a quick nap!!

Coming up next – Dinner and Fireworks! Thank you for reading!

LOL at the cavewomen.

Those Cars suites are really cute! Love the bathrooms.

Total cavewomen!! I said a couple of times I hope we didn't see anyone we knew!

Cavewomen.... but super super super happy cavewomen

I did my best to fill Missy's shoes. It's an unrealistic expectation, but I tried. Hee hee.

I had no idea what enormous shoes I had.

Metaphorically speaking, of course, they're ginormous.

Love the pictures of the Cars suites - that resort really has some great theming. My only complaint with my Mermaid room was that the shower was so dark. It was tiled to look like Ariel's cave and when you pulled the curtain you really felt like you were in a cave - I couldn't hardly see my toes!

Loved the pork shank cavewomen - gonna have to get me one of those next trip! Maybe growl a little while I'm gnawing on it.

It does have great theming! That's hilarious about the shower though! Lol!

Yes. Growl. It would add to the effect.

So guess where dinner was tonight?



Yes, California Grill again! After a wonderful food experience and a less than stellar serving experience a few nights before, I was giving it another shot!

I’ll say up front this was much better service wise and the food was still great!

Look! I had a coke right away! And several times during our meal! Our server was Steven and he was excellent.



Here’s our view (and Pam’s hands):

Heather and I were too excited to sit for long and right after we put in our order we jumped up and went outside to take pictures!

Finally we forced ourselves back inside.

Dinner!


I had the mac and cheese (with some chicken on the side) tonight!



Someone had fish:



Here’s Betsy and Heather!



The light kept changing and Heather went back out to take pics:



I had the chocolate dessert tonight:



Heather had the little tiny float!



Dinner was delicious. We all enjoyed it.

After we finished we decided to go over to the Top of the World Lounge to watch the fireworks. I didn’t have a tripod, but the view was amazing.

After the fireworks we met up with Jenell and Suzanne and all went swimming. We sat in the pool and hot tubs for an hour or so. Our Magic Bands were awesome for the pool. No keys to worry about!

Then it was off to bed!

Those photos from Cali Grill are amazing, Tammy!! Best views of BLT I've ever seen.

Love Top of the World!!

Phenomenal pics from Top of the World!

Ok, I think Dream Girls Cruise Eve should definitely include the Top of the World. Those views are amazing!

I took the crane out of your castle picture (at least as much as I could. The part between the castle is a bit trickier)
