Disney 2016: Day 11

1:50 p.m.
Hello everyone! As you can see, it's a bit of a later start today... We woke up around 10:30 and have just laid around the room for a while watching the Olympics!  Animal Kingdom is a hard park day with the hotter temperatures and large amount of walking, so we needed a break.  I tried to make leaving this weekend a little easier by organizing and packing up my suitcase, as well as working on some blog posts.

6:15 p.m.
Compared to every other day, today must seem incredibly boring! I went down to the food court at our resort by myself for a later lunch around 2, and it was surprisingly very nice!  I took a magazine and just chilled by myself for the first time since this vacation began.

I had the same thing as the other day, a turkey sandwich with fruit, chips, and an apple turnover. We are having an extremely large supper late tonight, and we have eaten a lot of heavy meals recently, so it was good to have something simple.

Since last updating you I've pretty much just laid beside the pool, explored our resort, and helped mom with some laundry.  But I found this Coke can very fitting.

9:00 p.m.
Time for dinner at Ohana's!  It is always one of our favorite meals, even though I feel like I've said that quite a bit during this trip.  It is all you can eat, family style.  It is also really nice because we can watch the fireworks from the windows with the music piped in!

Waiters come around with platters of food and skewers of meat the entire time you are there, and everything is amazing!

Dessert might honestly be the best part though.  It is banana bread pudding with caramel and ice cream.  I don't like bread pudding, and this is soooo good!



11:00 p.m.
Dinner was amazing... And it made it even more amazing that we got to watch Wishes from our table beside the window! I think my favorite times watching Wishes on this trip so far have been outside of the park from the Polynesian hotel!

Also, I finished my canvas tonight! I had a canvas that had "Family" written across it, and while in Epcot I had each of the countries write "family" in their languages! As an afterthought I brought it to the Polynesian tonight and had them write it in Hawaiian. It is so cute!

What's in my... Toiletry Roll

I would just like to let you all know that I am packing for a twelve day trip, so for some of you this might not be enough, for some it may be to much. It all depends on personal preference and this is what I have found works for me! I would also like you to know that we are going to be driving everywhere on this vacation, so to an extent I don't have to worry about how much I pack or the sizes of my products. This is my Toiletry Roll  that I hang on the back of the door in the bathroom wherever we are staying. I am going to go through pocket by pocket and show you what I am bringing. In the Top Pocket I have mostly random things. I have Band-aids for small cuts and blisters Q-Tips Safety Pins, in case a strap breaks or something And the brown thing on the left side is a bra clip for razor back tank tops In the Second Pocket  I have skincare things Hawaiian Tropic Clear Sense Sunscreen SPF 4 Travel pack of equate Makeup Remover Wipes And in...

Beach Bags

Ok so new update on how to pack a beach bag. But Warning before hand! The way my family packs for the beach it takes three regular sized people and a seven year old to carr y! I'm going to beak this down into the separate bags that we carry. My Bag My personal Sunscreen, such as your facial sunscreen. This would also be the category for tanning lotions and oils. Two towels. One to lay on or put in your chair, and one to wrap up in or wipe out your eyes. My beach mat! It is straw with pink edges it rolls up perfectly and fits in my bag. I got mine at Target but IDK if they still sell them or not, try  www.windycitynovelties.com/straw-beach-mats Plastic Bags or Sandwich bags to put pretty seashells in! A Book or a Magazine, or both!  The Christy Miller Series , like I've suggested at the bottom of the page,  by Robin Jones Gunn is a good beach read mainly because they take place on a beach! A Camera, this is my absolute best friend...

Best Beach Ever!

So... I am debating on if I should even share this with you because it is so amazing! This is the most absolutely amazing beach I have ever been to in my life! It is Emerald Isle NC it is perfect!  So in my mind it is so perfect because: It is on the beautiful coast of North Carolina (which is where I live, and where I love!) It's name is Emerald ISLE so its on a cute little island (Duh!), at some places o the island you can see the Bogue Sound (yes this is a body of water, and yes this is a real place) and the Atlantic Ocean on the other It is a quite little town so everyone if friendly, and the beaches are never crowded There is a nice little aquarium just up the island a bit The is a little shopping center called Emerald Plantations that includes a movie theater , restaurants, shops, and a river where you can feed Sea Turtles (this is especially fun because there's one that is bigger than my six year old brother! It lives at the bottom and only comes up occasiona...
