Our Disney December Trip - Day 4

The BIG Kahuna
AND KONA COFFEE (all CAPS because I am so excited seeing this food)
TONGA TOAST

Day 4. We started the day off with a hearty breakfast at the Polynesian Resort's Kona Cafe. I had the Tonga Toast and Christopher ordered the huge breakfast platter. We then relaxed for a bit and headed over to Hollywood Studios in the afternoon.

Gorgeous sunny day at the Grand



Like all of the other resorts and park, this one was decorated for Christmas too.


We rode Star Tours, Toy Story Midway Mania and even caught an Indiana Jones show.


We decided to have a snack before heading over to the Osborne Family Spectacle of Lights and picked Min & Bills Diner. Neither of us had eaten here before and there choices sounded delicous.


We split a Buffalo Chicken Mac & Cheese and a Pretzel hot dog. Both were delicious.


Christopher, who isn't even a cheese fan like me, still talks about the mac & cheese! I should add that to the recipe list!

We found a good spot to wait for the show to start. And little did we know how great our spot was - it was right in front of the light switch! It was really cool to watch the selected family flip the switch and turn on all of the lights!


Although I posted some pictures here, none of them really do the show justice.


What happens in the show, is the lights will twinkle and dance for special, selected Christmas songs and then once the song is over, the lights will not flash/twinkle/dance. It is truly a spectacle to see.









After the show, we left Hollywood Studios and headed to Downtown Disney for shopping, walking around and to grab a late dinner. All the shops were decked out for Christmas too. We got to go into the new Disney Marketplace Co-op and Christopher has special cigars rolled for him at Sosa's.

We sat down and had dinner at Wolfgang Puck's Express. It was a great way to relax and unwind.
