Disney 2016: Day 6

3:40
Good Evening ladies! Sorry for the late start today, but after the late night we had last night we slept in today... Until 11! We never do that!

Today I am wearing A Mickey tank top from Walmart, black athletic shorts from Old Navy, Minnie Ears from one of my first trips to Disney, Teva sandals, my FitBit, and my Magic Band but I forgot to take a picture in the room, so here is one of us hot and sweaty in Italy with my dad pretending to be annoyed!

We ended up getting in to Epcot about 12:45, and have since ridden Spaceship Earth, and Mission Space both with fastpasses! 

But right now eating lunch at La Cantina de San Angel in the Mexico pavilion.  I had a huge pile of awesome Nachos which you can see peeking out there in the back, but the main reason to come here? These Churros with caramel sauce we had for dessert... Those churros were a beyond words kind of amazing, and I could (and possibly did) drink the caramel.

I always love the inside of the Mexico pavilion.  They have set it up to look like an outdoor market at night with stars and lanterns!  There are lots of little carts and a booth with a woman painting intricate little carvings, it is my favorite!


7:00 p.m.
We just stopped and had a snack in Italy (as mentioned above)! 

While in Norway we bought a Berry Crème Puff and a Cream Horn, but we weren't really hungry yet. So, we visited a few pavilions, did a little shopping, rode the ride in Mexico and the new Frozen Norway ride (which was AMAZING), and finally stopped in Italy! Italy doesn't have many things for the normal person. They have very high end shops and sit down restaurants, but no quick service or things to see! We did discover that because of that, it is a fairly empty, shady, and pretty place to stop for a snack!

Honestly, I was more impressed with the desserts in Norway than France!  Look at all of the cream filled things!

And though we didn't try them, check out the Olaf and Frozen cupcakes!

Oh, and we made some friends!  We never really pay attention to the cast members in the parks who aren't recognizable characters, but these were goofy and fun!


9:00 p.m.
About to watch Illuminations with crepes!

We grabbed a seat on the balcony of a restaurant in Japan, and it just lit up around us!

Pictures of fireworks honestly never do them justice... But I tried!

And the lit up world as it floated out into the water.  It opens up and fire and effects come out later in the show!

I love the way the golf ball lights up at night!

11:30 p.m.
I really thought we'd be in bed by now... We came back to our room at Allstar Music resort and a transformer had blown, and all the power was out. They had to move us to Allstar Sports, which was an hour and a half long process. I don't know where Disney has hidden their Magic recently, but they sure need to find it.

I apologize for ending on a negative note, but hopefully tomorrow will be better!



Thank you all so much for reading! I thought it would be fun to have a little summer Disney sun to brighten up snowy winter days!  If you missed yesterday you can see Day 5 here, or go to the Disney 2016 tag to see the full series!

Nadine West: Third Shipment

Another Nadine West bag!  This is such a fun little bag, and I have really looked forward to every one thus far! These are the Simple Sparkles "diamond" stud earrings.  Though these are very cute and I actually kinda wanted to keep them, I have too many pair that are too similar.  These did retail for $6.49 though, which is suuuuper reasonable. This is the Make a Wish necklace.  I wanted to like this based off of the name, but it just really isn't my style!  I don't feel like I can pull off a crown necklace/princess persona...  But anyway, this retails for $17.99, which I feel is a bit much for cheap jewelry. This is the Constance top.  It is like a baby pink chevron cami, and I wasn't into this really.  I have enough camis, and am not really into printed ones, so this just wasn't my style.  This retailed for $9.49, which isn't too bad Fianlly, we have the Zipped floral romper, and as you might have guessed it has a zipp...
