The Plaza Restaurant

On our trip to Disney World in February 2017, we decided to try The Plaza Restaurant.  We rarely eat at table service restaurants at the Magic Kingdom.  I have tried a few of them, but I haven't been super impressed.  There is just so much to do there, I hate to spend a lot of time eating.  But we did want to try somewhere new, so we picked here since it was so inexpensive.  

February 2017 Disney World Trip Report Part Three

Today is part three of my trip report from our February visit to Disney World.  You can find Part One and Two in previous posts.  Just a reminder, this was Melody's first visit to Disney World.  This was our second park day, and we decided to go to Magic Kingdom.  You can read about what we planned in this blog post.  We didn't quite follow the plan down to each ride, but overall we stayed on track.  Check it out below!

February 2017 Disney World Trip Report Part Two

So as the title implies, this is part two of my trip report.  Part one can be found here.  So a brief recap, Melody just had her first trip to Walt Disney World.  We did plan quite a bit, but we were also open to changes.  Days one and two (part one of our trip report) were spent outside of the parks.  So day three was our very first park day.  We decided to go to Epcot first.  One because this is our favorite park as a couple.  Two because we wanted to try out the Garden Grill for breakfast, and if for some reason we were unable to make it our first day, we could attempt it again later in the trip.  So read all about our day at Epcot below!

D-Luxe Burger

On our February trip to Walt Disney World, we decided to try out D-Luxe Burger.  We wanted to spend our first night at Disney Springs, and the food here looked really good.  The reviews I read were also really positive.  Brad loves a good burger, and I love good fries.  So we thought this place would be perfect for us.

February 2017 Disney World Trip Report Part One

So Melody just had her first trip to Walt Disney World!  You can read all about the planning here.  There are so many pictures and details, I decided to break up my trip report into different "parts".  Part One is our general visit to Orlando days one and two.  On this trip, we wanted to spend time with Brad's grandparents who live in Orlando.  So we opted to do that at the beginning of our journey.  Read all about it below!

San Angel Inn

I had dinner at San Angel Inn on our recent trip to Disney World with mom.  I have always wanted to eat here just because of how pretty it always looked to me.  I also love Mexican food.  I was a bit hesitant based on the menu, but we decided to be adventurous and try it anyway.  

February 2017 Disney World Trip Planning (with a baby!)

Brad, Melody, and I just got back from Melody's first trip to Disney World!!!  What is super funny about Melody going to Disney World at the age of 8 months old...Brad made a comment that we would never take a baby to Disney.  He/She would have to be at least a few years old before going.  Well Brad is the one who initiated this trip!  We also used this trip as a visit to see Brad's grandparents who live only a few miles from Disney.  I want to share some details that went into planning our trip.  This is very basic.  I plan to write more about doing Disney with a baby in future posts.

Be Our Guest Dinner - Revisited

While I have had dinner at Be Our Guest before, mom had only had breakfast there.  For our January trip to Disney, we had dinner reservations for both Crystal Palace and Be Our Guest this night.  But we decided to cancel Crystal Palace a few days before since it was an earlier reservation and we both have had it.  We did not regret this choice.

Garden Grill Dinner

We ate at Garden Grill on our recent trip to Disney World.  It was not on our original agenda when planning our trip.  My mom got sick eating here two years ago (from the motion not the food).  So I have always been hesitant to book it again.  However, we were ahead of "schedule" on our third day (last full day), so we looked into restaurants that had availability that night.  It was between Garden Grill and Cape May Cafe.  Mom said she thought she could handle the motion better because she felt like it as a fluke the time before.  She also knew how much I love eating here, so we opted to go it.

January 2017 Disney World Trip Report

As I mentioned before in my Disney planning post earlier this week, my mom and I just got back from our annual girls' trip to Walt Disney World for my 31st birthday.  It was a different trip this time around since I wasn't just leaving Brad behind, but I was also leaving my 8 month old baby behind.  I was surprised at how well I handled leaving her since this was literally my first time away from her.  I have never not spent a day with her.  But thanks to technology, I was still able to see her everyday and chat with her too.  Anyhow, I wanted to give a quick trip report from our visit to Disney.  It was a jam packed 4 days, but we accomplished a lot and now we are super exhausted!  Check out all the fun details below!
