Sunday Morning! We had a Ohana breakfast planned for this morning and it was terrific as always. http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp324/lcrimando/07BA_022.jpg Lilo and Stitch did not disappoint!http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp324/lcrimando/07BA_017.jpg and the energy of Ohanas is as wonderful at breakfast time as it is at dinner. Khloe was the cousin who carried the bread and she loves that bread, when we got to the table she had already snuck some! My DH got another BD cupcake! http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp324/lcrimando/07BA_018.jpg At this point the birthday cupcake deliverys were getting ridiculous! We weren't asking for them, the servers just see the button. So far he had a birthday cupcake the first night at Ohana's, for lunch at CRT, for dinner at Narcoosees, for lunch at Garden Grill, for lunch at Brown Derby, and now for breakfast at Ohana's. Steve thought it was time to put the birthday pin away! (he had it clipped to his backpack!) After our delicious Hawaiian brunch we were off to the MK briefly. Katie had some things she wanted to pick up that she had seen, and I was hoping to do Laugh Floor Comedy Club. We had our tea scheduled this afternoon so we didn't have much park touring planned..we thought this was our last day at the Poly (we had a transfer planned..more about that later..) and wanted some down time at the resort. At Laugh Floor I texted my joke in beforehand and they used it!! Here goes..."Why does Cinderella stink at sports?"..."Because her coach is a pumpkin"!!! We were excited our joke was used and our name said! This is where the boys and girls in my family split up! The boys decided to stay in the MK, they did Indy Speedway, and Swiss Family Treehouse and Splash Mountain and got some roasted cinnamon nuts as a snack. The girls and I took the boat to the GF for the afternoon. I had a blowdry scheduled at the Ivy Trellis. I do this every trip for a treat. Then we had our girls only tea at the Garden View lounge! This was an experience we would do again. We had such a special time. We were seated at a wicker table set (one couch, 2 chairs) in the very pretty lounge.http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp324/lcrimando/07BA_004.jpg..my girls smiled the whole time as we were treated like royalty. http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp324/lcrimando/07BA_005.jpg We ordered the Buckingham tea. The girls each got to choose their own tea..I chose the Gardenview blend, Khloe the lemon, Katie the Princess blend. We all had our own pot. It was in the most beautiful China and you couldn't help but feel how special this afternoon was. We started out with tea sandwiches. 5 of them! Khloe and I loved the chicken salad, grilled pear and gorgonzola, watercress and cucumber, and shrimp salad. Katie on the other hand couldn't get past the unusual sandwiches and didn't eat much. She made up for it on the next course, scones and devenshire cream..then onto the pastry course. We had girl talk and enjoyed our time together. We walked back to the Poly on the path after stopping in the GF gift shop to get a Jasmine pin for Kai. The girls saw it while I was getting my hair done and wanted to get it for him. Back at the Poly, they left the pin with a note from "Jasmine" since Kai wasn't back in the room yet. Kai was so excited when he saw it..he really thinks Jasmine was in our room!!! See, this is what happens at WDW..the kids all get along soooo much better!!! We found Kai and Steve by the pool and joined them for a while. Off to Downtown Disney tonight. Wolfgang Pucks cafe did not disappoint. We love it here, but again, waaay too much food. We were full after appetizers. Because remember, all of us get one! Normally would would share one or two instead of all of us having one. And then with this dining plan we push ourselves to eat the entree, then there's dessert next. We all felt uncomfortably full. We walked off our meal with a visit to the Cirque store. http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp324/lcrimando/07BD_035.jpg We are huge Cirque fans and have seen 5 different ones so far. http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp324/lcrimando/07BD_038.jpg Katie is a gymnast and would love to be a part of Cirque one day. We went to another store on the West side that had all different autographs from celebrities. We enjoyed looking for our favorite stars...well, Johnny Depp in particular..:blush: We spent time with the Legos.. http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp324/lcrimando/07BD_033.jpg We got some samples at Ghiredelli, then off to WOD..It was packed, which was good, so I didn't have the desire to shop as much! I got some things for my car, the girls and Kai got some mushy Disney pillow things, and I got a rolling duffel for a new carry on. We headed for the bus as we heard thunder, and made the trek back to our room. We caught Wishes, then right to bed. We thought this was our last night at the Poly so we were sad..things would change tomorrow.
