Celebrating with Mickey and Co - Day 8

[Claire L]

Thursday February 12th 2009

This morning we woke and did the remainder of our packing before heading over to check in at the Boardwalk Inn where we would be spending the next 7 nights As the SSR studio was booked also for that night we didn’t have to leave the room by 11am. We got over to the BWI by about 11am and as expected the room wasn’t ready and we were advised to return about 3pm. As it was overcast we headed off to DHS. Upon entering we realised this may be a mistake as the American Idol attraction was receiving its official premiere later today!

Anyway we decided to go and grab a bite to eat in the Starring Rolls café and I had the M&M brownie with apple juice and Nathan had the muffin and orange juice.

After this most other attractions appeared impossible but we decided to go and see the Indiana Jones Stunt Show as it has a large capacity. The show is the same as ever but still entertaining.

As we sat there the clouds appeared to start to go.

After this we took the boat back to BWI and went to see if our room was ready. We were initially given a ground floor room but after I said we preferred a higher floor we were given a 5th floor room We then went to check out our new room

Which had a great side water view

It was then time to go back to SSR to collect our luggage. After this we had a quick wander round to get a picture of where we stayed.

Once at BWI and settled in we took a quick dip in the quiet pool. Not knowing what we fancied to eat this evening but not wanting to venture to far we settled for the Cape May Café – New England Clam Bake. As expected it was busy but we were seated within about 20 minutes. The selection of food at the buffet was good. I started with the seafood chowder.

Nathan had a selection of chicken ribs, sirloin and salad.

I then tried the peel and eat shrimp with salad.

Then it was time to try the fried fish and sirloin with corn on the cob.

Finally it was time for dessert and they tasted great.

After this we took the boat back to the BWI and fell fast asleep.

Never not seen it in 8 years but guess sometimes it may be broken.

Claire, thanks for more good reporting, especially the series of photos of your BWI room. Realized as I was looking at them that though I'm familiar with the BWV, I've never been in a BWI room and there are some differences.
Ready to read about the rest of your trip, so anytime now . . .
