Disney Vacation Day #4 - EPCOT
Worked from the room for the morning. Was sad to be checking out of the Hyatt Grand Cypress, but glad to be moving to the Dolphin. Dropped my rental car off and worked from the airport for a few hours until Aunt and Uncle arrived.
We went immediately to Phins bar for a welcome drink - a cosmo for me. It's a great lobby bar - and lots of TVs so a good place to catch a game. Dropped bags off in the room and over to EPCOT for a ramble around world showcase. First stop at Rose and Crown for a round of beers - Cider Blackcurrent for me was delicious - and a scotch egg. Then over to La Cava de Tequila for a margaritas - black magic for me - and chips w/ guac and queso. Nom nom nom. Meandered the rest of the way around the world and then back to the Dolphin for dinner at Shula's. EPCOT was weird tonight - the walkways around world showcase were PACKED and yet there really weren't lines at any of the festival booths or at La Cava or really anywhere except a couple of places right by American pavilion during the Garden Rocks concert.
I've never eaten at Shula's before - but I would definitely come back. Excellent service and excellent food. I wasn't feeling a steak - so made a meal out of a few starters - french onion soup (really good), tuna tartare (fabulous) and a crabcake (meh). Along with a blueberry martini (so GOOD) and a glass of wine. I love that they have a nice bar and lounge area and it was easy to grab a seat as a walk-in.
Tomorrow's plans: No idea. Aunt and Uncle are going to DHS. I might meet them over there after work. It's all a game time decision.
