I just knew you would love it!!!! Can't wait to hear about it when you're ready to write that TR
All those trips, you poor poor girl LOLOk, again, this delay between postings is getting ridiculous! And I'm so sorry! Just crazy here with trips and recovering from trips and planning new trips! But I am putting a big effort this weekend to getting further in this report!
The theme of this restaurant is awesome! Jimmy would absolutely love to go there, and what a perfect surprise to get Captain Jack himself in the midst of it!!As I was eating my bread, I heard a series of clomping down the stairs right behind me and thought, who is that klutz? Well, I hear “hello!” and look up to see the owner, Captain Jack himself! The meal isn’t advertised as a character dining because I don’t think he’s always there, but luckily he showed up this time!
Haha, yeah it was a fun experience! I mean, I had learned by that point that I was not going to find amazing food at DLP!Captain Jack's looks like some extra detailed Pirates queue and I love it. And how cool that Captain Jack actually comes around on occasion. What a fun little surprise! Sorry to hear the food wasn't great, but after meeting Captain Jack I'd be like "whatever fills me up idc Captain Jack just said hi to me"
Yup! I like things like that!How fun to have a surprising meet with Captain Jack!
The details are the best! And I'm glad the review helped!Great updates! I'm looking forward to soaking in all of the details while we're there in early September! I 100% agree with you on the state of things in the U.S. and have also avoided the HoP attraction. Ugh.
I was thinking that we need to check out the Pirate's restaurant while we're there so I was very happy to see your review of it. We will set our expectations for the food in DLP low and just try to choose places to eat based on the atmosphere.
Atmosphere is wonderful! I can't wait to see Tokyo later this year and soak all that in!What an amazing day! I love just taking in the Disney atmosphere!
That restaurant looks amazing- and so cool you got to meet Capt. Jack right at your table!
I loooove the dresses! I wanted to get them for my friend's daughter, but knew it would cost too much money!Those dresses for girls are gorgeous, so detailed!
Captain Jack's looks awesome! And that is beyond cool that you got meet to Jack while there!
I know, woe is me!All those trips, you poor poor girl LOL

Oh boo! We want princess clothes, too!no adult sizes though
Alright those are absolutely precious. I might have to pick some up for my niece when we go...For babies, they had the cutest little onsies! Seriously I wanted them all!
That Lego art is fantastic! What a cool way to use Legos.The Lion King: 12,491 bricks, 27 kg, 65 hours to make
Nice to know that they aren't just making stuff up (except for when they're supposed to be making stuff up).I was head of Team Pirates and assigned a different flag to each group! So it was cool Disney did their research and included real flags in the theming!
So cool! Jack is one of my fave characters. It's neat that he just appears there!Well, I hear “hello!” and look up to see the owner, Captain Jack himself! The meal isn’t advertised as a character dining because I don’t think he’s always there, but luckily he showed up this time!
That sounds like an amazing interaction. I love it when characters are all in it.We ended up having a fun discussion where I let him know this version of pirates was my favorite. So then he asked if I wanted a photo. I got up to try and snap a selfie, which probably was going to be horrible. And he goes, oh that won’t do – grabs my phone with one hand, my hand with the other and pulls me up the steps to find a waiter who took some great photos of us! It was honestly great! Just an overall fun experience
Definitely adding this to our list!Again, that was the trend with DLP dining – food unmemorable, theme great! But overall, I was very pleased I ate there
Ah, so glad you found nice families to take your photo! That's one of the downsides of solo travel, but there are usually enough kind people around who can help you out.But there are lots of fun photo spots and I ended up taking some photos for one family and the mom took photos of me!
WHAT? Just punched you? How does that even.....???(Which resulted in another wonderful park guest experience where a pre-teen boy basically punched me in the chest; like literally, he wasn’t surprised by me walking and wasn’t flailing his arms, he just decided to hit me! Truly ridiculous!)
