Fun announcement today! I was selected as one of FitFluentials ambassadors! Check out the page, and my bio HERE. I am so honored to be one of the ones chosen! If you missed my “audition” blog post, you can check that out HERE. I am excited for whatever is in store for me with FitFluential!
Ok, so moving back to my Disney trip. We left off with My parents anniversary. The next day was Saturday, and we had lunch in the Magic Kingdom at Liberty Tree Tavern. But first, we sat out on the swing at the beach again. This was one of my favorite parts of the trip!
check out my dad in the background….ya…
We watched some sweet baby ducks following mama around.
and Bobby chased them
We went to the Magic Kingdom early to walk around a little bit.
We walked by the new Fantasyland expansion. it’s coming along!
Our strong courageous men tried to pull out the sword.
It was finally time for lunch, and I got one of my favorite Disney desserts…Ooey gooey toffee cake!
After lunch we walked around a little more, then decided to head back to the hotel and relax at the pool.
It was really crowded, but eventually I spotted the only empty table right by the pool, so we had some shade.
We hung out at the pool, relaxing, reading, and swimming around, for a couple hours. it was really nice and relaxing. Then it was time to head to the lounge for appetizers. We didn’t have a reservation for dinner, so we were going to try to make the food in the lounge enough for dinner, and we managed!
after we ate, Bobby ran to the gym, and my dad and I walked and met him there. They did some weights and elliptical, and I ran 3 miles on the treadmill.
we walked back through a wedding. The design of the sidewalk is really poorly done, we basically had to go through the wedding party to get to the other side.
when we got back, the Poly beach was the place to be. They were having movie night and a campfire with marshmallows. We went back up to the lounge for desserts, and then decided to walk around outside and check out all the action.
we walked down to the dock and sat on some benches right as the water parade started. perfect timing! Oh, not to mention, the weather was so nice! not humid and I was chilly, I had a sweatshirt on!
It was a really great night just hanging out at the hotel. We went to bed after that, ready to head to the mickey boat the next day!
QOTD: what is your favorite way to relax on vacation?
Congrats on becoming an ambassador! How fun!
Looks like you had a perfect day in Disney! Sometimes lounge food really is enough for an entire meal!
You should try and make the dessert the ooey gooey toffee cake. Karen has the recipe on her blog somewhere. It is super easy and really good! I love it and try not to make it all the time. haha
Ok, I must know where to get this and the recipe! I’m going to go scour Karen’s blog for it…
Crystal here is the link from Karen’s page for the recipe!!! It is so so good and super easy to make!!

Awesome! That is why I made mine too. I saw her recipe and then realized I had everything to make it, so I made it for a group of friends and it was a huge hit! :0)
It looks so fun. Super cute bathing suit!

Congrats on the fitfluential ambassador! You rock! Our vacations are not ever really very relaxing, and I don’t think they will be for awhile with my crazy child! LOL

My favorite way to relax on vacation is to lay on chairs by the pool or walk along the beach…with a pina colada of course!
I LOVE Pina colodas!
I got it from the Victorias Secret Swim catalog a couple years ago!
