Happy Easter! {Disney World Resort Hopping}

Hello Everyone!

HAPPY SUNDAY AND HAPPY EASTER TO ALL! <3 

This weekend Mark and I thought it would be fun to take a break from our never ending school work and go resort hopping for Easter (no pun intended)! This turned out to be one of my favorite trips to Disney and we didn't even step foot into the parks! There are so many free ways to have fun at Disney (however, you are probably going to wind up buying something!) but this is definitely one of them! It was so nice not having an agenda and just taking our time through the resorts. No fast passes, crowds, blazing sun, or 4 parks in one day nonsense. 

We started at the Polynesian (which is Mark's favorite, because of the theming). We've been here a few times already so we skipped the sight seeing and went straight for the Dole Whip. 

If you're craving Dole Whip and you don't want to hop into the parks, the Polynesian resort is the place to go! Also, I feel that the Dole Whip tastes much better here than in the parks. Another perk of touring the hotels is the merchandise. There is so much cute merch in the resorts that you normally wouldn't see at Disney Springs and and the parks too. 

Found a little Moana running around <3 

Next was the Grand Floridian. As crazy as this is, Mark and I have never been there and needless to say we were in AWE. If you are visiting the Grand Floridian for the first time, you are not prepared for the grandiose and magical feel of this hotel! From the moment we walked in, I felt like a princess. I love the live jazz band and adorable posh shops! Everything has such a cozy feel too and there is literally a dreamy seating area every few feet. 

SIDE NOTE, .....we noticed the new security check points now located at the resorts.  It is probably one of the smartest things Disney has done. Although if you plan to resort hop, security can become a bit of a hassle as your bag is checked 1000x but all in all, everything feels safer. 

My ears are 3D printed Beauty and The Beast ears made by the lovely Aloha Ears Design!

We were lucky to be there in time for Easter because of the amazing chocolate decorated eggs! These eggs are perfect and the fact that they are edible makes them 10x more awesome. Of course, I had to take a picture of every single one. *face palm* 

The resort's grounds are gorgeous, it feels like you could see Mary Poppins out for a stroll at anytime. I could honestly talk all day about how in love I am with the Grand Floridan and I haven't even stayed there yet but its for sure on my bucket list! 

Because our trip was so spontaneous, we didn't get a chance to dine at the Polynesian or Grand Floridan, so to end the night we headed to Disney Springs for a delicious dinner at Raglan Road, dessert at Sprinkles, and did some shopping. 

In the next post, I'm going to be doing a mini haul from the damage I did at Disney Springs, so be on the look out for that next week! 

Have a lovely week everyone!
