The cool thing about Chef Mickey's is that it's a character breakfast, so while you eat your Mickey-shaped waffles, characters come to your table to say hi and pose for pictures.

After breakfast, we took a spin on the monorail, then headed over to Downtown Disney for a little bit of shopping. One of the fun things about DD is the Lego store, and it's larger than life Lego sculptures. Molly, my little dog lover, found the lifesized Lego dog statues to be particularly captivating:
Finally, we had made reservations at a restaurant called DINOSAUR for later in the week, and Ted took Griffin over to check it out:
