Disneyworld- downtown Disney!

Downtown Disney is basically a giant shopping and food area that is free admission.  I'm pretty sure you can JUST go to downtown if you really want. I'd highly recommend going to at least one of the parks though. They are super fun!
But i digress.
Downtown Disney. Lots of shopping and food, but there is also a lot of entertainment options. There is a movie theater, as well as hybrid restaurant/entertainment shops that have some super long hours for visitors. Downtown Disney also has all of the characteristics of the parks, such as statues, ice cream stands, Mickey shaped everything, as well as all the Disney merch and photo ops you could possibly ask for. Actually, downtown Disney might have a TOUCH more shopping options, as they cater to all the parks features, so you can get a lot of the other park merchandise that may not be in the park you went to (unless you went to them all, in which case you are a baller, and need to take me next time).

Holidays at Disney are AWESOME

Frozen is big all year long, but its even MORE pronounced at Christmas!

Typical picture of men waiting while the ladies shop? 

Yea, okay, so how awesome is this dragon made of Lego? Like, are you kidding me here?

I think I read somewhere that this is actually functional?

Snowflakes in the land of sun!

Seriously, ANY Christmas decoration you could possibly ask for Disney style. 

Disneyworld part 2!

We got to eat at the Be Our Guest restaurant. Now, this was super impressive! I had tried to make reservations MONTHS before we went,  but they were totally full. I was more disappointed than I'd like to admit.
But!
When we saw the restaurant we decided to ask if there were any spots left, just in case there had been a cancellation or if they kept spots open for walk ins. Many restaurants do.
Turns out they had ONE table for 2 for the entire night and it was at that exact time! So damn right we went for it!

The restaurant was exactly what i was expecting. It was perfect and amazing and the food was phenomenal. Everything was fantastic. I did not try the grey stuff because it wasn't veggie friendly (it has gelatin) but my mashed cauliflower was the best I've ever had.

So fancy

This is the ratatouille that the husband got. It apparently tasted super great.

Looks like baby food, right? But so goddamn delicious. Carrots, mashed cauliflower, mashed potatoes, and backed Mac and Cheese. 

The West Wing is NOT forbidden here!

I love they got all the details!

Right out of a movie, eh?

This was the east wing, I guess? It was across from the west wing, so I make assumptions.

There were plenty of paintings of the cute couple. Some were scenes from the movie (or Christmas special) and some were not. Maybe more concept art?

Naturally.

He was such a gentleman! Seriously, I got a bow and everything. It was AMAZING!

Ontario-Final post!

There won't be much text in this post, since its mostly selfies, and some pictures of my parents cute dog. Her name is Abby and she is a Shilo Sheppard. She's a super sweet dog, but terrified of, like, the world. Seriously, a scaredy dog. Afraid of loud noises, the outside, other dogs, everything. Its cute, but, also not very awesome in some regards. I think she just turned 4, so she still has a number of years left in her. I hope she mellows out, fear wise, as she gets older. It would be nice to take her for a walk without her freaking out.

And now the selfies. Some of these are fashion related, or makeup related, and if you guys have any questions as to where/how/when/how much I got anything in the pictures, feel free to comment, or send me an email, and I will happily give you all the details I can!

Ontario playground

Hey guys, this SHOULD be my last post about the holidays in Ontario, but there may be a photo post sometime later, if I decide to throw in some filler when I get swamped with school work (which I'm actively fighting against).

I'll start with some of the fun things I got either from shopping trips around Ontario and Toronto, and some of the stuff I got from Christmas. I should also mention, again, that I am a pretty big nerd, and I am not ashamed at all. And, for any internet trolls who feel the need to refer to me as some 'fake gamer girl', I freely admit that I don't game anymore. So, sure. Bring it.

I also got a fun Tardis mug, that I have a really hard time drinking out of ( is there a trick to drinking out of something square?) as well as a lightsaber that was hella fun to get on the plane. The flight guy that checked us in loved it though.

So, clearly, I got some pretty badass stuff while I was there. I got a bunch more stuff, including a camera, clothing, The Last Unicorn DVD (which I'm sure stoked about) and a charitable donation to a child in Africa. Apparently, the hubs and I got her a piglet, which is really cool. When I finally make it to Africa, my mom wants us to see if we can find the girl they "adopted", but I think it might be hard, since World Vision only gives an approximate area in which to find her village. We'll see though. It would be hella cool to find my so called adopted sister. Or, that's what my mom calls her.

Speaking of my mom...she has a tendency to collect random knick-nacks. And, sometimes, I like looking at them. Actually, they are all pretty neat. My family has some pretty weird things they like, and then blend them together into some weird Buddhist-African-pop culture thing. It's just as weird as it sounds, but it works.

Okay, so I'm looking through my pictures, and, yea, there will be another Ontario post, but it will be mostly selfies, and pictures of my parents dog. So, still awesome?
