Welcome!

I saw this idea for making wooden dolls on Grace Lin's Pocket Pacy blog. I decided to make my own, because it looked fun. I am calling them passing dolls because if you are given one of my dolls I would like you to take them somewhere and then pass them on to someone else for another journey. If you are willing to share the journey on this blog, please take a picture of you and the doll on your trip and send it to passingdolls@gmail.com with a description and I will post it here on my blog. Thanks!

Minnie Miranda at the Magic Kingdom


Here she is as she walks into the Magic Kingdom.  She loves the balloons that the cast members sell there.  Her favorite one is the clear sphere with the purple Mickey Mouse balloon in it.  She bought one and almost got blown away when the wind came, since she is so small.

In Frontier Land, in front of the shooting arcade, Minnie sees a sign for horses for auction.  She thought to herself, "I wish I could stay and get one."


Then she discovered pin trading!

Minnie Miranda dines at Be Our Guest

Be Our Guest Restaurant is a delicious experience.

Welcome to Be Our Guest
It was a beautiful restaurant.  It had a giant music box in the middle of the dining hall.


Minnie Miranda shared a turkey sandwich for lunch with her friends.  The food was almost as beautiful as the restaurant.


The theme of the restaurant is Disney's Beauty and the Beast.  It was decorated with statues and murals from Beauty and the Beast.  Minnie Miranda thought it was just like being in the movie, except that there were no actual candelabra servers.

Rainforest Cafe

After a long day at Universal Studios, Minnie eats dinner at Rainforest Cafe in Downtown Disney.  She eat some python pasta, and every twenty minutes the animals in the restaurant came alive as a thunderstorm blew through.

While Minnie waits for her reservation, see takes a look at this fat trumpeted fish.

Minnie likes the animals at the front of the restaurant.  She thinks they look friendly.  I hope she is right.

Minnie loves her tree frog crown that she got to wear during her meal.

Minnie Miranda Finds Her Prince


At the Port Orleans Riverside lobby, a nice man gave Minnie a frog.  He said, "Just don't kiss it, because you know how that story goes."

This is Minnie Miranda.  She is a new member of the passing doll family.  She is exited to go on her first journey to  Universal studios, Disney World  and a  Disney cruise around the Caribbean ending at Disney's private island Castaway Cay. On her travels she hopes to eat good food, to ride terrific rides and to be passed on to nice friends.

Missy Sails Pelican Lake

Yesterday Missy went to Pelican Lake and sailed a boat with her friend.  In Pelican Lake you can find different kinds of fish, like yellow perch, big mouth bass, and bluegill.  Maybe Missy did some fishing.  She loves being on the water.
