Honeymoon Day 6: Part 3
We arrived at the Magic Kingdom and took some pictures first. This was our fourth time to the MK this trip, so we weren't exactly in a rush!
We headed over to the Haunted Mansion (I told you I was obsessed), and then went back over to Pirates. (Chris's favorite ride, if you couldn't guess.) Somewhere along the way, these pictures happened.
The lines for everything were pretty long, so we decided to shop instead. I had been debating which Dooney I wanted to purchase on this trip, and I ended up getting this one.
I've started using it as my daily school bag, and it's absolutely perfect. I chose it because I loved the inside: it's hot pink.
I love the contrast between the bright color and the black and white. The inside is also vinyl, which is great for me because I somehow always manage to get coffee stains on the insides of my bags.
Speaking of coffee, I also picked up this travel mug.
And, because we were there, I had to get a new charm for my bracelet too. I settled on the castle charm. (Stock picture because you can see the detail better.)
We stopped in the art store again, and then I saw this.
I don't think I've ever loved a piece of Disney art more. It has Belle on Philippe riding, not up to Beast's Castle, but to Cinderella Castle. I stopped and stared at it for a good ten minutes, but I just couldn't justify the $1000 price tag. (Chris wouldn't have objected to me buying it either.) I could spend a week at Pop Century for 1k though. I'm still wistful just looking at the picture of this piece.
We checked the time, and realized it was almost time for the MSEP, so it was time to hightail it out of there. We're not big parade fans, and we just didn't want to be trapped in the park. We left just as the music started: perfect timing!
We took the monorail to the Contemporary and headed downstairs to the Wave. It was our first time there, and we were seated almost immediately. I really liked the feel of the restaurant; it definitely felt more "adult" and it didn't have many screaming children. Our server was also awesome: he brought us two drinks (non-alcoholic that is) at a time! I think we must have looked really thirsty or something. His name was Ali, but I christened him "Two Drink Tony."
I ordered a deconstructed salad to start, but Chris just filled up on bread.
(He's just being silly here, don't worry. We were done with drinking for the day!)
I ordered the chicken for my meal. Two Drink Tony told me that it came with a breakfast waffle, and while I heard him, I suppose I didn't... understand him. What does he mean, it comes with a breakfast waffle?!
That's what he meant! The waffle was slightly spicy, but it was definitely of the breakfast variety. Chris and I laughed about it the entire time. Chicken and waffles aren't exactly the chicest of foods!
I think Chris actually ordered pork here instead of beef. We kept joking that he must be having the shakes, as it must have been his first day of the honeymoon without any red meat.
Our dinners were very good, and a steal by Disney standards: each one was less than $20. I definitely recommend The Wave for honeymooners! (Or, really, any adult couple.) At the end of the meal, TTT brought us out a complimentary dessert, but I forgot to take a picture of it. The Wave does a trio of desserts, so you get to try a little of everything. All three were very good.
After dinner, we were stuffed and utterly exhausted. We had been out and about since 9 that morning and had gone to three parks. We fell asleep almost instantly--- but we were frightened awake an hour later by that gosh darn water pageant! (We laughed about it, although it can be very disarming!) Thankfully, we managed to sleep well as the next morning we would be headed back to the Magic Kingdom... and underneath it on the Keys to the Kingdom tour!
