I am here for a (3) resort split stay with DW, DS 14, DN 19. Just checking out of Wilderness Lodge Villas this morning and just want to give an update since I really like all that I have seen from others.
Had dinner on Monday 8/14 at Whispering Canyon, first time, very cool. DW and DS asked for ketchup and boy did they get it.
Went to MK on 8/15 and 8/17.
DW and I took the KTTK tour and that was so cool. We did see Snow White and Cinderella underneath the castle just standing next to each other getting ready for their appearances. Great tour if you have not yet. Lunch was at Tomorrowland Terrace. Rode JC and HM.
All four of us did the HEA desert party. Great event to do, food was plentiful and the fireworks were fantastic. It is amazing how much food is wasted at the one we were at. Must be folks eyes are bigger than their stomach. Did see a few kids sneak into the viewing area just as the HEA started and they thought they were in the clear. But a CM caught two of them and I pointed out the other three and they were sent away packing. Tinkerbell's flight was cool too. Rode a lot of rides on 8/17 and did not have to wait very long either. Great two days at MK.
Leisure down day on 8/16
Took the Wilderness Lodge tour, rented a pontoon boat, had lunch at Geyser Grill, great food, too many flies however. Took boat from WL to MK - monorail from MK to EP and back - steamboat from TTC to MK and monorail to GF to watch Cinderella dance with her prince. Very nice. Finished with dinner at Trails End. Afterward on the walk back we saw several deer just hanging out on the trail and eating grass. They were aware of us but did not seem to be too spooked.
Finished this leg of the trip with the Hoop-Dee-Doo Revue. First time we did this. Awesome show, just simply awesome. We had table 64 and the host commented on our table as here favorite but would not tell us why. Now I experienced why for her.
All in all, things have been great so far. CM's are very friendly. Celebrating my 12 days of birthday here and am getting many wishes as I wear my button. Weather is very hot and steamy. Taking afternoon breaks and yes it has rained here everyday, but has not changed our plans one bit yet.
I will give more after our next leg is done at Boardwalk.
