Tuesday 18th March
The alarm was set for 6.45am. It was a lovely sunny morning. Breakfast was busy. I felt slightly better today but still no where near normal
We walked back to the room for the buggy and then had a slow walk through the village. Ds was desperate to look in the Lego shop so I gave in. Ds enjoyed building some lego figures for a little while and took a particular fancying to the Simpsons house!
After the Lego store we popped into Disney Fashion and I admired these for a while
We then got a starbucks and walked on to the studios. RnR was 5 minutes so the adults went to queue. As always I enjoy waiting at the exit - comfy seats, lots to look at! One set of cars sat at the exit for a good 5 minutes and the reversed out. Next in was my lot - turned out it had broken down while they were on it! It was down for most of the morning after that. We went over to get on Cars, Buzz had a HUGE queue! Mickey however was quite lonely and I managed to meet him with dd while the others were on Cars. As we walked past Buzz dh went up to the corden and said "Buzz, Andys mum is coming!!" (I'd read online that if you say this, Buzz will fall to the ground - lifeless) He shook his hand to dh as if to say no way, and his Cast Member replied "he's not falling for that today" we all thought it was brilliant, it really made us smile!
TSPL was busy and we didn't fancy queueing so we went to ToT which was a 20min wait. We left the studios and grabbed lunch at McDonald's. We quite enjoyed it, its a treat as we rarely have them at home! I'd taken some toddler tray meals for dd sk she had one of those as she doesn't like chips!
After lunch we walked back to DLP, we did BTM, PM then through the castle to Fantasyland
We did IASM x2, Storybook ride, Casey JR - all walk ons! As we exited Casey Jr we noticed Goofy roaming around so we ran down for a cuddle! Then we did Dumbos before we left the park as we had BBWWS booked for 6.30pm.
We'd booked our BBWWS tickets on ticketnet.fr for €40 each plus a couple of euros to print the tickets at home. We arrived at the arena around 5.55pm, straight through the ticket check, given our cowboy hats (they also gave dd one despite her not having a ticket) into the bar area. Unfortunately we'd missed the preshow, it was just ending and they were calling people to find their seats so we didn't get a drink at the bar either. We were seated in the green area, 2nd row from the back. As soon as we sat we were offered drinks, dh had beer, I had a coke, ds had water.
While we waited for the show to start we ate our tortilla chips and cornbread - we all loved the cornbread, I've been told I have to make it at home!
The show started and not long after we were bekng served chilli con carne. Dd wasn't offered any food so I shared mine with her. We all enjoyed the chilli. Ds got served sausages, chicken drumstick, baby roasted potatoes instead of chilli. Once we'd finished we got ribs, chicken leg, sausages and baby roasted potatoes. All very tasty. For dessert we were given apple crumble and ice cream, ds had an iced lolly. All in all we really enjoyed BBWWS. Its our kind of food, the show was great, atmosphere brilliant and the servers worked so, so hard. Dh actually left a bit tipsy from all the beer top ups!
After the show we did a bit of shopping and then walked back to the hotel. We stopped by the room to drop off some bags and then went to the bar to use the wifi to skype my sisters. Then we went back to the room, had a bath and collapsed into bed!

the boys will be grumpy that theres no cornbread too lol
ds had a cuddle. We then went in the shop where I fancied some earrings! After leaving the shop we continued on to Cafe Fantasia. It was empty! Our server was very polite and took our order (3 portions of Mickey waffles) as we were waiting Goofy came bounding down the corridor, again ds had a cuddle. Our waffles were served promptly and were really delicious. I was expecting them to be crunchy (like the waffles you toast at home) but they were divine. While we were eating, who should pop past but Genie! Again ds has a cuddle. We never expected to see any characters so it was a lovely surprise and really added to the magic. As we walked out I told DH we had to stay here, at least once! He agreed, I suggested an adult only weekend lol! I've never had a real desire to stay at DLH, but I think we should try it!
