Thanks for reading - yes we literally took a suitcase of princess dresses with us. DH had 3 outfits - thankfully OKW had free laundry facilities!

We really enjoyed the yachtsman too and were also made to feel really welcome with our two boys. My mouth is watering at the thought of it now, we also didnt rate coral reef although we didnt get bad service sounds like your server was really bad.
Our boys really ejoyed the tepan edo too and the food was fab

Anna is a beautiful little girl and i hope you dont mind me saying but it wasnt until you pointed out her arm that i noticed it, i loved the fact that she had so many dresses and looked so proud, it brought a tear to my eye reading the last part of the report you will always have that memory and boy what a great memory to have.

Thanx very much for sharing and im sure i will be back to have another look at some point in the future.

Thanx again Mandyx
Glad you enjoyed - the report was done in another format and cut and pasted - hence the quick posting on the forum.

Thank you for the nice comments about DD, alot of people don't notice her arm and she doesn't let it stop her at all. She loves dressing up at disney, I'm making the most of it whilst she is little.

Most of the dresses have been bought used off ebay - she just had one new this trip the Tiana dress.

Great report, thanks. We're going late oct this year so it was good to see how much you were able to fit in.

We loved being able to speed through your report too. It was like a tasting menu of different courses!

Anna was the star of the report of course! So sweet.

Think we'll avoid epcot at the weekend - we don't want it to be too busy when we're browsing and grazing at the food and wine festival!

Liz

Thanks for reading. Yes it was a great time to go - not a drop of rain, really warm and low crowds. We are going back the same two weeks this October.

Epcot on the saturday was definitely a lot busier than the weekday we did. We didn't get there until after 4pm so felt a bit like we were late at the party. Wasn't rowdy just lots of people worse for wear and crowded.

Loved your report and, I have to say, you have the most beautiful daughter - she always looks so, well, serene!

Can I ask a question? Did you find that the lovely drinks you had e.g. shakes, smoothies etc were readily available or did you have to make sure at each restaurant that they were on the DDP?

Thanks!

I'd read on the forums before going which places offered shakes etc as the DDP drink. Some places like whispering canyon the server pointed out you could get the milkshake, other places I just asked the server.

Thanks for reading

Wow!

What a fab food report. By the time I arrived at The Yachtsman Steakhouse my tummy was growling – loudly!

LOL at Mrs Mangel and the Lamingtons. I always associate Lamingtons with Neighbours too.

I was shocked to see the downhill turn in the food at Olivia’s, especially your fish dish. We haven’t been for a while but we used to go there a lot for the comforting home-style cooking they used to serve. Oh dear!

I must say you’ve got me very interested in sampling the steak at Raglan Road. We go there quite often for drinks but have only eaten there the once. I’m going to take a look at the menu in a minute.

We’ve never had a breakfast sandwich from Earl’s. Think we might be trying one of those next time. I’m an HP sauce lover too.

So many wonderful experiences shared with your little girl – her outfits are so cute and she is a little beauty!

Hi

Fantastic report! I really appreciate other Dibbers taking the time to do food reports as it's really helped me decide where to make our ADR's for September.

Love the report from the princess party, your DD looked beautiful in her princess dress
