Hi
We are just back (me, dh, ds age 3 & mother-in-law) and had a really good time.
Stayed in Hotel New York, it was lovely, staff nice, we had 2 interconnecting rooms. The only thing was breakfast was a bit of a queue at certain times.
Used Ezyshuttle for transfers and they were really good.
Was really impressed by the parks, have been to Florida a few times and was a bit concerned that it wouldn't live up to my expectations but it did.
Highs:
Animagique - great show
Stich Live
Tower of Terror (addicted since first ride in WDW)
Dinner at Cafe Mickey - Brilliant for characters, Goofy sat for ages and did a jigsaw with my wee boy and the food was pretty nice which I didn't expect.
Extra Magic Hours
Lows:
The rain on Wednesday
Lack of places to get a cup of tea or pastry during EMH
A few rude people, guests not staff especially during character meeting...
Toystory playland was well done I thought although the only ride I was on was Slinky Dog which wasn't very exciting but great for small kids, RC Racer was really quite quiet 10 min queues but parachute drop was pretty busy, 30 min plus.
Was disapointed not to get on Crush but the queue was pretty constant at about 60min, except for the rainy day when down to 45min, felt I couldn't really leave my Mother-in -Law with the wee one for that long although I am sure she wouldn't have minded. Did manage a couple of shots on Tower of Terror, Space Mountain, Rock and Roller Coaster and Thunder Mountain though so felt we did okay.
We also went to Buffalo Bills which was good and I found the food to be okay, again I wasn't expecting much, not sure I would do it again next time, pretty pricey but did enjoy it.
We were there Sunday to Thursday and there were a few things we didn't have time to do.
Overall we had a great time and am looking at going back in November with my wee boy and best friend, dh no too happy but he used extra holidays to go off to Greece for a football game...
