Thank you so much for your kind thoughts and prayers. While the next two days are going to be challenging, I am choosing to view this as a beautiful celebration of a life well lived. I know Shirley is at peace and as my 11 year old cousin said.... "now I know there's a heaven because that's the only place Shirley could be".
So now I am going to cheer myself up by posting about my 1900 Park Fare breakfast!
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious breakfast at 1900 Park Fare!
Today was my last Disney day and I was determined to start the day off right by enjoying breakfast with Alice, the Mad Hatter, Pooh, Tigger and Mary Poppins! I had never been to 1900 Park Fare before and I really enjoyed the bright, airy feeling of the restaurant. I had strolled over along the lagoon path from the Polynesian and it was just a beautiful morning to be out and about. My waitress was absolutely lovely and offered to take pictures for me if she was close by. This is the one part of character dining that is a little uncomfortable as a solo diner as you sometimes feel awkward taking selfies or asking others to take your photo. I have never really mastered the art of selfies so was happy she was so sweet to help out. My waitress was quick to come by with coffee and fill my water glass and suggested I pop up to the buffet now as the characters were in a different part of the restaurant. I headed over to the buffet and chose my first plate.....
The potato barrels were delicious as was the Mickey waffle. The eggs were okay and the bacon was Disney bacon. I tried a bite or two of the red velvet pancakes but didn't love them. I had made an attempt at an Alice bound this morning but didn't get the right shade of blue. It was still fun to give it a shot though. The meet with Pooh was super fun as well.....he is just too cute and I tend to feel more comfortable with the non face characters.
The Hatter came by and commented on my hat sitting on the table. He wondered why it wasn't on my head and thought perhaps my head might be too big for it! I asked him where the Cheshire Cat was and we had a very fun discussion on how he appears most unexpectedly. Mary Poppins was the next to come by and I asked her for some advice on how to get three teenage boys to clean up their rooms. She was perfectly in character as she replied "in every job that must be done, there is an element of fun" and advised me to help them find the fun. Perfection!
I had some time now before Tigger was available so I hopped back up to the buffet for my second plate. I went with the cheesy potatoes, blueberry cheese blintz and some of the strawberry soup. The strawberry soup was amazing.....basically like drinking strawberries and cream. The potatoes were a fail as they were undercooked. The blueberry cream cheese blintz was delish!
Next up was a chance to see Tigger and this was so much fun as we hugged and bounced around. He is a huge flirt!
Now it was time to head back to the Poly and finish packing up my stuff before my final few hours at the Magic Kingdom!

Glad you could be with her as she passed.
