You must be having a good time since we haven't heard from you in a while! Enjoy your last full day at The Grand
Trish - we have been having fun. And then when back from the parks I've been too tired to get on my phone LOL!
We are spending our last night relaxing in the resort. We were supposed to spend the night at DHS for OL and Fantasmic but it was so humid and crowded, then it started to rain and I was done. I loved the new FP system, except at DHS...horrible. We had a FP to TSMM and the FP line was 30 minutes and wrapped around to where the old Jack Sparrow show was. Really? I asked the CM and he said, 'well, it's better than 90.' He said it jokingly but we decided to skip the ride.
We did Star Tours with a FP and the standby was showing like 10 minutes but the FP line was 10 people long outside the FP scanner still. I asked if standby was quicker and they said no, but we waited at least 10 minutes...and that really didn't bother me too much since I know with FP you can still have some wait time, but I'm not doing 30 minutes for a FP wait LOL!
Anyway, enough about that! I will say that the CMs at SL have been fabulous! And the texting service has been amazing!! I've used it for all sorts of questions, FP changes and my 4th FP...fabulous service!!
One big annoyance - my SIL sent me flowers here for my birthday and they were delivered here on my birthday but they didn't make it over to my room for 2 full days, after returning the call I received about them and asking CL staff twice. I can't take them home with me and she really didn't need to send them, but she did and that was sweet so it would have been nice had they walked them over to our room on my actual birthday to enjoy for the rest of the week here. And, to add to that, it's not like anyone even said Happy Birthday at breakfast or ay our spa check in...LOL! My husband has been spoiled in the past, on his birthdays at other resorts he's gotten a call from Mickey on the voicemail, chocolate, and a card. On my birthday I only got a happy birthday at V&As and my birthday flowers not delivered to my room. I know not to expect anything from Disney but the two times I came with my hubby he always got a little something but, again, that wasn't so much a biggie as I'm making it sound LOL!
I'll try to write a fuller report about our GRAND stay when I'm back this weekend!!
I don't know if I've said it but hugs and thanks to everyone on here for all the help and info over my many, many months of planning!!
Oh - and I'll second
@branv that GGs was horrible when I went. There was hardly anything on the menu and I got the flatbread pizza and it was really inedible. I should have complained but didn't. Maybe I'll email when I get home.
