Magic Memory Monday – Breakfast with the Goof – Dec 2, 2013

My Magic Memory Monday picture today comes from our first ever character meal at Disney World in January 2012.  We had done quite a few family trips to Disney World already by this point but we wanted to wait and save the expense of a character meal until the kids were old enough to enjoy it more.

We were staying at the Beach Club Resort and made the trek to the lobby to the Cape May buffet.  It was a good breakfast buffet and the characters in rotation were Goofy, Donald and Minnie all in water / beach / nautical themed outfits.

The kids really enjoyed themselves and the characters did a very good job of keeping the kids entertained and interacting with the kids when they got to our table.  But the second time Goofy stopped at our table is the part of the experience that I will really remember.  Our son was kind of distracted but Goofy’s act and mannerisms got our daughter laughing and playing along in a great way.  She is a bit of a goof herself (can’t imagine where she gets that from) and she had a blast.

Thinking Disney Thursday – Beach Club Resort Lobby – November 21, 2013

So another Thinking Disney Thursday post about the Beach Club Resort at Disney World.  Obviously this is one of our favourite resorts at Disney World and one of the reasons for this is the wonderful lobby.

We had just done the character breakfast at the Cape May restaurant in the lobby and we were walking through the lobby and I jumped a bit further ahead and turned and took this shot quickly and took everyone by surprise.  So it was a relatively candid shot and the camera grabbed an interesting focus.

I like this picture and how it make me feel to see it.  Lovely colours, nice light and a great feeling overall.  Just a feeling of comfort and peace.

Nice.
