Great update! I'm glad you were able to make it to EMH at AK. Those pictures of Marshall with Chip & Dale are just too precious!!
Thanks, we're glad you enjoyed it. It was neat to get to take full advantage of EMH at AK, and in this case our fourth time trying finally worked out as planned. We usually make it before regular park open, but making the EMH opening was nice. Chip and Dale were cute, and Dale really liked Marshall. They had no problem holding him bu themselves, and motioned for me to get out of the way. It was cute and everyone was happy.
Oh my gwarsh! I got awfully behind due to my little vacation with just DH, for the first time since DD was born.
I always love how you take us step by step through your vacation and you don't leave out any fun details. Marshall definitely wins the easiest going baby in the World award!
Hopefully you had a nice vacation, this time with some company. Perhaps you two could plan a WL trip soon... We're glad that you enjoy following along. We have a blast going over all the cool stuff we did, and the weird little things are some of the most fun. Marshall is seriously the most chill baby, which is just great. He definitely goes with the flow.
Great in-flight photo of the macaws and that is the best shot of Marshall "biting" Dale's nose, or was that Chip? But, of all the thousands of photos you must take, I can't believe that one with me came out blurry hehe and thank you.
It was Dale's nose, because Chip's is black like a chocolate chip. That's how I remember it. We got to see them a lot this trip, but that time Dale really had something going with Marshall. We'll have meet to try again for a photo together sometime. You never know what could happen.
I thought that the AK bus shared with CR? Had it stopped there first before moving on to WL? You are lucky that you got to AK on time. We never seem to make it for EMH.
We were surprised when the bus didn't head for the Contemporary. It was fairly full, and my guess is that they rerouted it and sent another bus to pick up at CR. We did stop at CR on the way to AK later in the trip.
That is very cool. Is it a scheduled thing? I have never heard of it before.
We saw them do the flight when they just started it a couple of years ago. It was something they were trying out and the birds were somewhat scattered. Now if seems quite refined and they stick together well. It happens on the island a few times a day, and I believe it was near the top of the hour. It is a pretty quick thing, it would be easy to miss.
That is adorable. Babies are so cute.
We had a great interaction with Minnie Mouse when our daughter was 8 months old. It is one of our favorite memories.
Seeing Marshall interact with the characters was one of the highlights of our trip. Being so young and having his personality he wasn't scared of them at all, and thought they were really neat. There's some neat interactions to come...
That was really nice to meet Kook.
I would love to meet her, too.
It was really cool, I'm glad we worked out the timing. WDW is so huge it would be easy to be there at the same time and not see each other, but we're glad it all worked out. She's super nice, just like you'd expect.
