So while Dale and Caitlin were soaring over DTD I hit the shops!
When we were there last year I had wanted one of the polos with the Mickey heads embroidered on it but I didn't get one. Well, when we went back in Dec I had made up my mind to get one but they weren't carrying them. So my mission this morning was to find one! I not only found the polo I also found a matching purse and flip flops! So I used my solo shopping trip as a time to spoil myself
When they got back down to Earth they texted me and we met up at Wolfgang Puck Express for lunch. The place was nearly empty!
Caitlin was eager to have their chicken and mashed potatos again and Dale and I thought we'd share something. (we were having a big dinner later and wanted to make sure we'd be hungry!) We decided on the Italian chopped salad. Caitlin loved her lunch again but we were disappointed. We assumed it would have salami or pepperoni or ham....or some kind of meat. It didn't It was just a basic salad. We did add some of Cait's chicken to it and that helped make it a little more filling and tastier. We passed on the desserts at WPE so we could go over to Goofy's and get something.
I find Goofy's a little overwhelming. It is usually packed and there is so much in there that I just can't make up my mind. Caitlin knew she wanted to make a rice krispie square so Dale and I decided we'd make one and split it. I asked him what he wanted on it and then... I marked what I wanted on it. Bad move!
I guess I pictured that like half would have his choices and half would have mine? Well it was just layered with everything and looked disgusting!
We ended up scraping a lot of stuff off of it and then it didn't taste too bad
We looked around DTD some more when we finished and then we decided to take the boat back to POFQ.
The boat ride was wonderful! We got to see the newly refurbbed TreeHouses along the way. These look really cool! (sorry no pic)
At one point our driver (is that what you call him? ) stopped our boat and said the space shuttle would be launching momentarily and hopefully we'd see it! We sat... and sat... and sat. But no luck! All those pretty, puffy white clouds were blocking our view.
As we neared our resort Dale did get these pics of POR and POFQ though...
When we got back to POFQ we strolled around the grounds a bit
and hit the arcade. The arcade is not real impressive but it does have my favorite old school game- Ms PacMan! We played a few games and then headed back to dress for our Signature Dinner .
**Up next...our Signature Dinner and EMH!
