Lunch and Hollywood Studios Hits
After our traumatic last experience ever at the Honey I Shrunk the Kids playground, it was time to head in the direction of our lunch ADR. But first, since we were in the area, I suggested we head back and meet our favorite fast car!
There was only one family ahead of us when we got in line. The boys were excited to see Lightning and Mater!
This meet was short and sweet. And I know the "characters" are not interactive but the CMs there could not have been less excited about their job. It was literally "click, click"...next family! But I was happy we got to do this meet before it shut down!
So we left the meet and there was a huge flood of people lining up behind us! Lights, Motors, Action! had just let out and it seemed like everyone with kids decided to meet Lightning after seeing him in the show. Glad we lucked out on the timing with that one!
Since we still had some time, I wanted to check on the meet for Mike and Sulley. The boys love Monsters University and we missed this meet last trip. There were only 2 family's in line do we decided to go ahead and get in the queue. Glad we got it in this time because it's yet another attraction gone from Hollywood Studios!
Sulley gave REALLY good hugs!
Mike isn't quite so cuddly.
Cute family picture.
And monster faces...for some of us at least. Guess Jim didn't get the memo!
After this it was time to go to our lunch ADR!
I checked us in while everyone parked the strollers. It had started to drizzle so we covered up the strollers and went to wait inside. After about 10-15 minutes, we were led to our car. Colin and Jim sat in the front row. Jake and I sat in the middle. And my parents sat with Nate in the last row.
We ordered - burgers for myself, Jim, and my dad, spinach dip for my mom, and chicken nuggets for the boys.
I loved the atmosphere in here! And the movies were a fun distraction!
How cute are Walt and his little friend??
At least some of us enjoyed the movies...
Nate was not a fan of the science fiction movies playing. He doesn't like anything "spooky" or "scary" so he asked for a wall to be built so he wouldn't have to see the screen.
And my parents, being grandparents, did exactly as he asked. The waiter even brought back extra menus to make his "wall" bigger.
I really enjoyed the food here at Sci Fi. The sweet potato fries were amazing!
After paying, I hustled off to change Jake while the others gathered up the strollers. We met back near the center stage area and headed to our next adventure - a first for all of us!
