Hello lovely DIS peeps
I hope that you are all having a great week
Tuesday May 17th 2011
This morning we decided to head to Hollywood Studios for rope drope
We were planning on hitting the Studios the following week for Star Wars Weekends so thought it would be a good idea to enjoy some of our favourite rides whilst the crowds were still light
It was a beautiful sunny morning and the lines were very short so no problems hitting all the headliners
We hadnt had any breakfast so a mid-morning snack was required and I knew exactly where to head
We love it here and make sure to visit every trip
Here is our choice today;
Butterfinger Cupcake
We decided to share or should I say DH decided we should share
'Is your half bigger than mine?'
This was totally delicious and probably contains around one million calories.
The frosting and crushed butterfinger topping is wonderful and just in case it isnt rich enough for you there is also chocolate frosting inside!
We continued around the park and just happened to be walking past Star Tours when the CMs removed the ropes for a soft opening of the ride
We rode twice without any wait at all and it really is a great ride
Following our inter-galactic adventures it was time for lunch and as this was nearby we headed inside
The menu features fairly standard offerings, here is DHs choice
Hot Dog & Fries
I think it looks a bit sad (the burgers looked a lot better) but he seemed quite happy with it
Heres my much more interesting choice
Grilled Vegetable Sandwich
basil asiago artisan bread, mushrooms, red peppers, zucchini, tomato, watercress and cheese with sundried tomato pesto, served with carrot sticks or french fries
This doesnt look great in the photo but it was actually very good.
It was packed full of all the usual veggies and the bread was covered in cheese then grilled.
I didnt manage to finish it all and you could easily split one of these
Only a couple of choices available for dessert in the Backlot Express
Strawberry Parfait & Marble Cheesecake
Nothing outstanding here but not bad either
On the way out of the park we dropped into the Tune In Lounge as we had never visited it before.
DH had a Coke and I had a Lemonade
Dads Electric Lemonade
Bacardi Rum, Skyy Vodka, Blue Curacao, sweet and sour and sprite
Another glow cube for the collection!
