Early Bird Gets The Worm

[BoCat]

Hi guys!! It's been a while since I posted but I sure do enjoy reading everybody's posts! Two questions: First-Does anybody know what time the boat leaves the Contemporary first thing in the morning to head over to Fort Wilderness?-We were looking into going over to the Trails End Buffet for an early,early breakfast. I didn't know if we would be better off driving over there. Next: My sister and 9 year old niece will be coming with us and they plan to do the Discovery Cove thing over at SeaWorld I was wondering if there was a shuttle or anything to take them there from the Contemporary-you guessed it --so I DON'T HAVE TOO!!! I'm such a mean sister!!!

#1 - can't help you
#2 - definitely not a shuttle from Contemporary to Discovery Cove. Take a cab or get a town car ride.

#1 - the boat starts running at 7:30 or so... but i beleive that's from the FW dock. It might not get to Contemporary until 7:45.

Another option is to take the Monorail to the TTC, and catch the Fort Wilderness bus from there. That bus will stop at the Wilderness Lodge, and then the Fort Wilderness Settlement Depot, which is where Pioneer Hall and the Trails End is located.


#2 - Take the Monorail to the TTC. From there, they have a LYNX bus that will take you to SeaWorld for $1.25 per person. It's the Link 50. Runs twice per hour, and takes 20 mins to get to SeaWorld. For more scheduling information, visit www.golynx.com

One thing I just realized... you said Discovery Cove... I've never actually been to SeaWorld or Discovery Cove... so I'm not sure if they are close together or whatnot... might want to double check to make sure...

Wow, that is really cool- did NOT know about that!
I have read the site and can't really figure it out though- do you know if they also have a route that goes to US/IOA or atleast NEAR there??? That sure would be nice...

Also does it go from TTC (or some other Disney area that you can get to first by using WDW transportation) to an area where you can do a little MINOR small grocery shopping? I mean like just enough for if I wanted to make a trip to the grocery store alone and carry it back with me- so it wouldn't be much.

Just curious because basically the only reasons we think we need a rental car on our trip is to get to US/IOA during our stay and to get to the grocery store if we needed something (like didn't pack enough pullups or swim diapers/etc.)

???

To get to IOA/US... I beleive you have to take the 50, and then transfer...


For shopping, the Link 56 takes you down to 192...

I stayed offsite last year at the top of I Drive so basically did the journey in the opposite direction.

If i remember correctly (and i'm not sure if i do!), it would be the the link 50 from the TTC to seaworld. Then on the I ride trolley to the top end of I drive and then the link 42 to USF/IOA. Sounds complicated but pretty painless (unless you're on the last bus, which there was a fight to get on.)

Does anyone else know if that's right???
