The Trail was one of those things we had never done before and I thought we'd have plenty of time to do, but we never made it into there in the whole 5 days we were in the parks! Just another reason to plan a trip back I guess. lol Izzy looks like she really enjoyed it!! And Dug is just adorable, as always.
Yes, you need to go back and spend some time there! Lots of stuff to play on!
YAY Dug!!
Cute!! I can only imagine how challenging it is to get these kind of photos with a busy toddler!
Gotta love Dug! But, yeah, Izzy isn't known for holding still and smiling.
What a fun part of the park!
I hope you were able to squeeze in RSR before dinner!
You'll find out soon...
I love the princesses that were at your lunch, but a queue situated on a staircase? Yikes. That's just asking for trouble when you have kids.
I know! I've been wondering this whole time if we just caught it on an odd day, though, and Andy's comment below seems to indicate this is not the norm. Whew! Cause it really wasn't cool.
The Dug meet and greet pictures turned out so great! Glad you managed to get a new avatar picture.
Thanks! I'm glad it worked out, after striking out on meeting Dug at WDW prior to this trip.
When I first read that you were going to Napa Rose for dinner, I was extremely impressed with your bravery at taking Izzy into such a fancy restaurant. Then I re-read the Lounge part and had to giggle. I'm curious to hear how your dinner went; it seems like all your meals so far have been pretty successful.

That was exactly why we went to the lounge and not the restaurant. Though, I did get the vibe from the waiter that maybe we weren't even refined enough for the lounge. Or maybe he was just not very friendly in general.
Finally caught up with the posts lol....i made it...
Must i say your Princess is adorable & the look on her face in some of the pics are priceless

) it looks amazing
Yay! And thanks - I take tons of pics, mostly just to help my memory since I am so far behind on my trip reports.
Thanks! Always so nice to meet him!
Your lunch with the princesses looks great!
It really was! One of my favorite princess meals for sure!
Aw, Dug looks like such a cute meet. You're right, that would be so cute if he talked.
I really wish he did - it doesn't seem like it would be that hard. Oh, well.
I'm glad that at least RSR was down early enough in the day that you still (hopefully) could ride it later!
Yes, though the reports I've read of it being down often seemed to be true.
I'm impressed you know his name...
Haha, thank goodness for websites devoted to Disney characters.
That was my first thought when I saw the pictures... Hey Dug, I think you went a little too far!
You know your way around.
It depends on the ride. I really thought you were going to luck out and find no wait at ToT when you went to get the FP. I guess not.
Ha, that would have been cool too. But I was super excited about Monsters, Inc, as it was a new-to-me ride. There's extra magic in trying an attraction for the first time and I just couldn't resist...
I agree with your assessment. It was fun, but didn't even really compare to the WDW version. I think changing it to Guardians, yet keeping WDW intact was definitely the right decision. I hope I can get back there to try the new version sometime!
I think it was a good call too. Of course, I'll have to ride it sometime to make sure.
Whatever keeps her entertained.
Indeed!
That's some dedication! Great job trying to make some magic by that CM!
He really went out of his way!
Ok, I think this was a CM screw up. When we ate there, they had us wait upstairs and called each party down one at a time. Basically timed it so that the group visiting Ariel was walking away as the next group got down the stairs. Probably someone took longer with Ariel or the CM's upstairs were not allowing ample time between parties.
Thank you for this! I have been wondering ever since if this was the norm or if something was just off that day. Sounds like we hit a weird situation, then. I just remember standing on those stairs for what felt like forever (of course, with a dancing toddler holding your hand, time seems to go much slower on a stairway).
What would ever give you that idea?
Just a guess.
Thanks!
