Aloha and Welina, Carole!
Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel. It sounds like you and your ‘Ohana have a magical vacation coming up, and hopefully, I can help with your planning!
Disney’s Spirit of Aloha Dinner Show is one of the
most delightful experiences in all the ‘World! Your minds will be wowed by fire and hula dancers, and your bellies will be filled with the delicious Polynesian fare. My dEAR friend,
Samantha, recently attended the show and was greeted with a flower lei at the entrance. (Bonus! A
Disney PhotoPass Photographer was on hand to grab a family pic!) While show options are always subject to change, the lei greeting has been a beloved tradition for yEARs.
While our
beloved Aunty Kau’i is no longer making leis in
the lobby, in the past, you could pre-order leis from
BouTiki. Check with the gift shop about delivery to Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, but you will pass by the shop on the way to your show so that you can pop in for pick-up. Be careful, though!
BouTiki is one of my favorite places to pick up souvenirs for home. From classic macadamia nuts to
Joffrey’s Kona Blend or a
fantastic Hawaiian shirt, the shopping possibilities are endless!
Carole, if you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to come back. I wish you an enchanted evening!
