The Crystal Palace

She got a little freaked when Tigger sat down next to us...although she was fine with all the other big characters walking around the park.

She liked Eeyore better than Tigger, but was still a little leary. She told him what a donkey says "Hee Haw"

Poor Pooh, she wouldn't get her picture taken with him. He even played peek a boo with her...didn't work. She made him cry :)

We wanted to do a character dining meal sometime while in Disney. Since Cinderella's Royal Dining was booked when I called to make reservations (I'll know better next time to call 90 days in advance, but since we didn't have 90 days from the time we decided to go to Disney to the time of our actual trip it didn't work) So, we did The Crystal Palace. It was really good food. Matt and I were $20.99/each and Olivia was free. Its an all you can eat buffet with a lot of good food. It was my favorite place to eat (besides Edy's ice cream!) It had a variety of food with dessert too (ice cream, cookies, pie, cake). Pooh, Eeyore, Tigger, and Piglet went from table to table to get pictures with all the kids. Olivia was excited for the idea to see them all, but for some reason she freaked when they sat down next to her. We don't know what happened to Piglet. We saw him walking around, but he was too slow. We were finished eating and didn't want to wait any longer. Olivia wanted the characters to sit next to her while she sat on my lap. We didn't get a picture with us with Pooh because when he came to our table Matt was at the buffet and Olivia wouldn't get a picture with just her and Pooh.

I like the Crystal Palace too. FYI for next time, if you don't see a character by the time you are finished eating if you tell your waiter they will get the character and bring them to you. Maybe now that Olivia has seen the character she will sit with Santa next year?

I love the picture of you two and Tigger! I think I would have gained 80 pounds if I ate a buffets! I can never choose, so I have to take a little of EVERYTHING! :) Does Olivia talk a lot about this trip? It looks like you all had a fabulous time. Love seeing the pics!
