I had Breakfast with Jill, CEO of Tastefully Simple. Well, me and the 429
other consultants who earned the trip! We had a special visit from the Big
Cheese...Mickey Mouse! How fun was that?!
After Breakfast I returned to my room to pick up the boys and head for Disney
MGM Studios.
This is one of my favorite parks and I had waited 8 1/2 years to go on my
favorite ride...Tower of Terror! There were also some new rides and attractions
since our Honeymoon visit, so we took those in as well.
We stayed until the park closed with our last event of the day being dinner
with "Aunt Jan" at the 50's Prime Time Diner. The atmosphere is so fun...right
out of a 1950 sitcom. We were called to the table by a "mom" type person who
announced "Berglund kids, time to eat" We were instructed to set the table and
that proper manners were expected! "Aunt Jan" (our server) introduced us to our
"cousins" from Michigan (the people at the next table. We cleaned our plates so
we got to look at the dessert menu (see the photo below for that). I got a phone
call during dinner and "Aunt Jan" took the phone and told the caller that I
couldn't talk during dinner! It was so much fun!
