we didn’t even begin to consider going back to Kona Cafe for a second try at these!! from Valentine’s 2013 —– Nick recently saw an announcement online that Kona Cafe was going to be offering a Breakfast Special (and you know, breakfast is the most important meal of the day) AND it was a pancake continue reading Repost – for Valentine’s Day – Red Velvet Pancakes … There are two Segway Tours that used to take place in Epcot theme-park. The first is the “Nature Inspired Design Tour” (circa 2010) and the second is the “Keep Moving Forward Tour” (circa 2013) – interestingly, we had the same tour guide on each of these. The “Keep Moving Forward Tour” was very short-lived – continue reading Repost – Two Segway Tours that are no-more … This is a repost of our first visit to Hoop Dee Doo back in 2011. We’re headed back to Pioneer Hall on Friday with Walter and Cathy & John. We expect to have a great time… again! We understand that there have been some changes in the past three years… The Hoop Dee Doo continue reading Repost: Hoop Dee Doo Revue … We haven’t been to Il Mulino in quite a while (we think it’s been about 3 years). Why? Well, our first three visits, not long after the location reopened as Il Mulino were all pretty disastrous. One visit with just us went poorly… the service wasn’t good and the food was only moderately good. The continue reading We return to Il Mulino after a long hiatus … We plan to do a dry run of the Magic Kingdom day for our upcoming multi day visit to Walt Disney World with friends who’ve never been… Thought you might find our “dry run” notes interesting, items in italics are only maybe items. At present: Thursday afternoon/evening = Epcot & dinner & fireworks Friday = continue reading Planning a multi day visit, Part II … Surprisingly, we’ve never eaten at Shula’s Steakhouse in the Dolphin. Well, maybe it isn’t so surprising since we aren’t steak eaters (and this visit to Shula’s has undone that). But, Joseph from bluezoo recently moved to Shula’s and since he was our favorite server there, we had to go see him in his new place. continue reading Our first dinner at Shula’s … I’m going to be a brief today… One of the BIG things that’s happened at Walt Disney World recently is the opening of Spice Route Tables at the Morocco Pavilion in Epcot. Now, we have our doubts about how this venue will succeed. First of all, the idea of small plates at Tutto Gusto failed continue reading Extra WDW Magic from around the Ether… Jan.22.2014 … Even before we became “Extra WDW Magic,” we were really into planning trips to Walt Disney World. Our first “REAL” visit to Walt Disney World (in other words, the first visit when we sort of kinda knew what to expect, 2002… it was also the first visit when we were somewhat responsible for someone else continue reading Planning a visit to Disney World with others … We had never eaten at Fresh before this breakfast in December. A couple of reasons: (1) we’re rarely at this resort in the mornings and (2) it’s a buffet with an a la carte option [much like Garden Grove]… However, we’ve decided that we should give eateries at the Swan and Dolphin resorts that AREN’T continue reading Breakfast at Fresh Mediterranean Market at the Dolphin Resort … Today’s “around the Ether” is MOVIE-THEMED… Mickey Mouse shorts… Melissa from Hyperion Papers has links to “Dog Show” and “O Sole Minnie” (this blog post was quite a while back, I’ve just been waiting to share it) & she has links to “Sleepwalkin” (more recent blog post) – we met Melissa and Danny on their continue reading Extra WDW Magic from around the Ether… Jan.15.2014 … |
