What a great day :-) Love the idea of the bump badge - so cute and such a lovely photo for them to have when they are older :-)
World of Colour looks awesome! Looking forward to reading more :-) x |

Ah not long for you to go now... you are going to absolutely love it! (And I want a full review of Guardians of the Galaxy when you are back! )
I absolutely loved Cars Land (as you have probably guessed, I so wish they had plans to bring it to WDW... it would be amazing to have it there too! I was really pleased with the bump badge photo, I may have to print it out to put in a little frame in the nursery |

Really enjoying your report. Another full on day.
Fiddle, Fife & Practical is not only a long name but its got one of those Disney back stories that Disney loves to add too. From Disney Park Blogs it reads... This 1930s-era eatery was established by Dolly, Dottie and Ethel Bounds, known professionally as Fiddler, Fifer & Practical (aka the Silver Lake Sisters). They spent a good part of their lives performing the vaudeville circuit, entertaining the troops in World War I and becoming minor celebrities in nightclubs along the then‐emerging Sunset Strip in Hollywood. After 20 years of singing, dancing and playing their instruments (Dolly on violin, Dottie on flute, Ethel on piano), the sisters decided to put down roots on Buena Vista Street. The idea came from Ethel, the practical one. She had always handled the trio’s business affairs and was constantly urging her sisters to settle down and open a legitimate business. They finally agreed, joining together to open Fiddler, Fifer & Practical Café, with its name an homage to their act. Disney couldn't just have a run of the mill starbucks |

Love that you got the baby a first visit badge, such a cute idea .
Cars land lit up at night looks amazing! Love Bubba Gumps, we're down in London in September and definitely visiting the one there. Last time I went I couldn't have my favourite cocktail, I can't wait . Well done for another busy day, you're making me feel exhausted just reading it all . I could barely function at your stage of pregnancy, never mind fit so much Disney fun into one day! xx |

What a lovely day Lisa - you really do know how to power through! Pregnancy or no pregnancy that is a mammoth effort.
Your photos look so beautiful, I can see why you loved DCA. The rides sound so fun too. World of colour looks fab, glad you enjoyed. And really cute idea with the badge xx

Wow that's a fab bit of insider knowledge... every day is a school day! Thank you for sharing!
Oh brilliant, I love the one in London! Spoiler alert... we actually have a bad Bubba Gump experience later in the trip but I won't dwell on that now! Haha I think I really was running on pixie dust... I even surprised myself! It certainly was a jam-packed day full of fun! Disney brings out the energy in us it seems! DCA really is the most beautiful park, it would be impossible to not fall in love with it I think... I was totally smitten! So lovely to see that you all think it was a good idea and not too cheesy... this baby has no choice but to share our love of Disney! Future Dibber in the making! |

Hehehe I love your plane and bear impressions and well done to Paul for winning Woody! Woo!
Awww the wee photoshoot in front of the falls is lovely too In fact, all your PP photos are fab! You definitely got your money’s worth. Good work! DCA does look very impressive, especially Cars Land. Not sure about the ToT overhaul though. Not keen. If they do that at WDW I will lose my [you know what]. Oh those photos with the bump badge are just toooooo cute Such a lovely keepsake! Everything looked stunning at night all lit up in DCA and I love the sound of the Monsters Inc ride. I do like interactive things, so the Roz bit sounds right up my street Especially if she throws out compliments Hehe! Such a fab day and your stamina always amazes me! Even preggars you are an unstoppable force! xxx |
