This will be a short TR cause our trip was very short, 1 night/2 days, but boy did we get a lot of stuff done in those 2 days....
It's mostly pics, since I haven't got time to do a full report. I hope you will enjoy it anyway!

Day 1: 24 th of Feb.
My mum infront of her favourite hotel, Sequoia Lodge. She got to choose the hotel this time.

The last time we stayed at SL, our room was close to the main building, so we didn't know far away some of the rooms are and this time we got a room furthest away. Next time we are paying for a Montana room!!!
(Well next time it's my time to choose and then it's Hotel New York ;) )

Talking about New York...

Please pay attention to the weather and the fact that we didn't need jackets. The weather was so lovely that day.

Since it was Sunday and the weather was perfect, there were sooooo many people in the park. I have never seen it like this. (When people say don't go on the weekends, they mean it!)

The good thing about weekends is that the Winnie the Pooh show is on. It's a cute show, but it's not for adults, it's for small children!

They were long. There were huge lines to everything. POTC was over an hour, we went on it during Candlebration were it was down to 25 min. We didn't go on any rides (except POTC)cause we wanted to wait untill the next morning at the EMH.
All I can say is stay away from the weekends! :eek:

Jack Sparrow was at adventureland. There were no one there. I don't think people knew that he was out! I waited 3-4 mins to get to him, it was great!!!

Day 2. The 25th of Feb.
We had an early breakfast so we could make it to the park as early as possible. Since it was our last day, we wanted to get as much out of it as we could.
The weather wasn't as nice today.
The wiew from our hotel window:

During EMH we went on the Buzz Lightyear ride. My mum hates wild rides so she was happy when she found out that she could ride Buzz, She loved it. Before heading to Studio (so I could go on some of my favourite rides) We had coffee. I don't know what you call this indoor alley behind all the shops at Main Street, but it's always so quiet in there. Like people don't know that it's there.
http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b45/stepher83/DLP%20feb%2008/dlp08133.jpg

Then we made it to Studio. My mum got a fast pass to TOT while I went on Rock'n'Roller coaster. I really wanted to go on Nemo but the waiting time was 60-75 mins and since we didn't have much time, I had to skip it!

http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b45/stepher83/DLP%20feb%2008/dlp08149.jpg
But I went on TOT and LOVED it. It's so much fun, I can't believe that i didn't went on it when we were in WDW.

Then we watched the parade. I ended up buying the cd as a proper goodbye to the cinema parade.

We had lunch at the Lucky Nugget Saloon. We normally eat at Mickey's but the food there is awfull so we decided to try something new. It was delicious!!!
http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b45/stepher83/DLP%20feb%2008/dlp08152.jpg

After lunch we walked around in the park just to enjoy the fact that we were there.

When we got back to the hotel to get our bags and go to the airport, we were both soooo tired. We got to do all the things we wanted to do in just 2 days. It was a great trip but next time we might squeeze in another day.

Is the pooh show only on at weekends, as my grandkids would really love that?. Great pics, love the food ones, would you recommend Walts, bearing in mind that we will have a 2 & 3 year old with us?

Thanks for reading
I don't think that the Winnie the Pooh show is on during the week. I have never seen it before!
Walt's is not for children. I think your grandkids will be very bored, and I don't think that they have a childrens menu. But maybe the kids will like The Lucky Nugget Saloon, that's a buffet and the characters are there as well.

Walts do have a childrens menu. If you look at the Restaurant sticky at the top I did a review after our last visit there and Im sure I listed what is on teh childrens menu. We eat there every visit now and there are always lots of children there. They get crayons to colour in the menu and sometimes a little toy to play with.
