The Mouse House

Monday, December 2, 2019

We had just been to Mickey's house in late October.  But who can ever get enough?  And when you have season passes, a 5-day break and a Nana and Grampa who are ready and willing to take you there, you don't hesitate to pack your bags and go.  Again.

The details are all pretty much the same as last time - a park a day until we just couldn't anymore.  This time though we got to see the Holiday decorations (which I find to make a magic place seem even more magical) and we spent a day at Disney Springs watching the new Frozen and walking through the decorated Christmas trees.

I am posting the photos for posterity - though I think you can all guess that they will all be full of smiling, happy and tired faces.  Enjoy.  I know we did.

 Festive dress for Frozen II at Disney Springs on Tuesday. 

 The Tree Trail after dark.






It "snowed"



 Another first for us was Stinkerbell and I doing the Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom game.  I  won't give too many details so I don't spoil it but basically, Hades is trying to take over the Kingdom and Merlin is recruiting you to stop him.  You have to find secret portals and then battle him with your cards (all free from the Prep School) until you defeat him.  We didn't make it all the way through as you have to do it in exact order but will finish it next time.








 Egg nog Disney style.




 Chinese for Thanksgiving at Epcot - yes, please.

 Favorite headband ever!










 Hopped the tram to see the life-size gingerbread house!  It's amazing!

 And then hopped the tram back to Magic Kingdom so we could have ice cream for dinner!


 Tower of Terror and Rockin' Roller Coaster - back to back!

 We met a new character...

 And then we hopped the new Skyliner back to Epcot as it was the first day of the Festival of Holidays.  We had Chip and Dale to find and some cookies to eat.
 
 Very similar to the Remy game at the Food and Wine Festival, this one has you looking for hidden Chip and Dale's in wreaths.  One in each country of the Showcase.  It was easier in some, as their country doesn't celebrate Christmas and so the only decoration they had was the wreath.  Still didn't mean they made it easy to find (I'm talking about you Japan).




 And there were also cookies to eat.  There was a special cookie in 5 of the countries.  If you tried all 5, you got a free one and a glass of milk at the end.  Challenge accepted.





 And it all capped off with Fidget joining us on the final morning!
