Raglan Road - my fav place to eat at Disney Springs!  I also love Goofy’s Candy Store as well.

There are so many good places to eat there. Love the Polite Pig as well. 😀

Do you order a drink with more than 2 syllables? If you do, then it is no longer coffee.

I just order a regular American coffee. Dunkin Doughnuts is my style. 😀

If it was the weekend you made the right choice. We'll never go on the weekends. Those empty parking spaces I showed you earlier will be all filled up! 😎

 

 

I don't normally go to Starbucks, but I was glad to help you out this time! 😁

Ahhhhh good to know, now I feel better about missing it since it was on Saturday lol.

We left the Boathouse a little after 3pm, and once we stepped outside, we could see the black storm clouds rolling in…..

 

IMG_4874-X2.jpg

 

We made our way back to the Orange Garage, hopped in the car, and headed out…..

We just made it back before the skies opened up. It rained for the rest of the night, so we just hung out in the room and relaxed. Patti needed it with all the walking she did today. Great job Babe!

 

Coming up next: A lazy kind of day!

I have been to Disney Springs many times and have never eaten at The Boathouse.  I have a friend who loves it - I need to try it!

 

I would love to see a pic of the Disney shelf as well.😀

Our "Disney" shelf is nothing elaborate, but I had Patti take some pictures. Our son Ryan put the castle together in about twenty minutes. He was a Lego fanatic growing up!

I do quite a bit of posting on FB of my pictures of family and places I am BLESSED to travel to. I've had more than one time people tell me they are "living" through my pictures. I say the same thing for you and wife. I'm sure I will not get to the areas there that you just posted of Disney, etc., but I am living through you and Patti as well by your pictures and reviews.

Post Cruise  -  (4/25/23)  -  It’s just a lazy kind of day! 

 

We were up at 7am to a very cloudy day. The weather report wasn’t very favorable, so our plans to go over to Cocoa Village are going to be pushed back a day. Patti wasn’t hungry for breakfast, so I went down to Lite Bite for a coffee and a blueberry muffin.

 

Around 9:30am Patti left to check out some nearby shopping outlets, while I stayed in the room and worked on the review and pictures. Patti has arrived at the Orlando Premium Outlets, and wouldn’t you know it, the sun is out and it’s a beautiful day!
