Day 12
Another lovely day. Did some washing as this was our last day here and we didnt want to have to do any chores when at GF. Tony went to TL but I had a sore tummy so stayed by the pool. He came back about 1pm and we skipped lunch I think weve eaten too much now and we stayed by the pool. At 3pm we got a txt from DD1 who wasnt well so had to phone her and give advice
26 and she still calls Mum and Dad for help!
At 6pm we decided to walk around the Boardwalk and ended up at Spoodles having a very nice dinner. We chose 4 appetisers and shared them Tapas style It was lovely and not too much. We then walked back through the Yacht Club and had a look in their shop, which was much better than BC and I bought a nice beach/pool wrap. Back to the room to pack.
Day13
Woke early this morning. Didnt want breakfast so just got a drink from the Marketplace. Our bill under the door was $772 not bad for 12 days (plus the $550 wed brought in cash) and eating in some nice places. I anticipated spending quite a bit less at GF since wed be able to use the Concierge Lounge for lots of drinks and snacks.
We got to GF at 09.45 and were met at the entrance by the Concierge g
Greeter Juanita, who took us up to the 4th floor to check in. Our room unsurprisingly wasnt ready so we went for breakfast at the lounge, then we went outside and sat beside the lovely pool which was vast. We had a frozen Daquiri each and roused ourselves at 12.30 to see if our room was ready. The room when we were escorted there, was on the 4th floor, 4308, with a magical view of the Castle and the Marina below. Our bags arrived soon afterwards and we unpacked before going back to the lounge for a little lunch. We then went back to the pool.
When we got back, we had a message from the Concierge staff to say theyd booked us into 1900 Park Fayre next night at 6pm. We had tried, unsuccessfully, ALL HOLIDAY, to get a dinner reservation there so we were really pleased theyd worked their magic and pulled strings!
We planned to go to MK to watch Spectromagic and Wishes that night so had a bite to eat and a glass of champagne in the lounge before hopping on the monorail. We were held up about 20 metres outside the MK station by a problem with electricity but luckily not for long. We rode BTMRR, Spl Mtn and Sp Mtn before watching Spectro. We then hot-footed it to the dock and got the boat back to GF. We picked up some really delicious desserts and liquers from the lounge and took them back to eat on our balcony while watching Wishes. We then got into the wonderful beds one each - turned down, with 2 Cinderellas Castle chocolates on each pillow.
