[uktigger]

hi nat

yes we did twilight check-in and i found it to be great we were second in line and i asked for 2 lots of the 2 seats and got them 63 and 64 a,c i was also told that my youngest son was down on their computer as being disabled (he has a low immune system)i told the virgin rep this and she advised me to leave it as it was because labels go on the luggage so that those cases came of first i also used the downtown check-in on our return,we got there about 7.45 am and was third in line i asked for the same seats again and got them

we done crystal palace on our first morning our seating was for 8.05 but the bus broke down and we didn't get there untill 8.30 but we were seated straight away the food was good and the kids enjoyed getting to see the characters without the rush in the parks
we did sci-fi for lunch and i found this good as well me and my partner split onion rings and burger and fries and the kids had hot dog and fries and bugrer and fries for desert i had an apple dessert (can't remember the name)and the kids has m&m sundaes and jack a plain bowl of ice-cream

we done kona cafe for lunch before our halloween party and we all agreed this was our best meal i had the khuana burger my partner had some sort of noodle dish and the kids had their normal burger and hot dog meal as for dessert they were great i had some apple dish again(can't remember name)my partner had the koko puffs and the kids had the kiddie cone and jack his plain ice-cream and the put a mickey chocolate stick in it

we had dinner at grand floridian cafe and we had our normal burger and fries jack had hot dog and fries and my partner had some sort of turkey sandwhich and for dessert i had ordered the glass slipper and dog bones which were out of this world we couldn't finish it all so i asked for a box to take it away
and lastly we done chef mickeys for my cousins birthday it was hectic but we all enjoyed it,altough i have to say we preferd crystal palace
sorry for a long post

Welcome Back Eve

Sounds like you had a fabulous time What are the the glass slipper and dog bone dessert do you have pictures to share?

Perhaps you could just do a little run down of MNSSHP for the Trip Reports Board??

 

[uktigger]

hi kaylee

the batteries in my camera ran out at our meal with the desserts so i took them with my son's disposable camera and i'm just hoping that they came out i am picking them up tomorrow from boots and i'll try and post them(altough i may need some help)
i'm not sure on where to start at doing trip reports but if anyone has any questions i'll answer them

eve

 

[KayleeUK]

Eve

If you need help with posting your pictures, PM me and I will help

Tell me about MNSSHP - did you dress up, did you see people dressed up and good costumes? What did you think of the parade and fireworks?

Did you enjoy the Food and Wine festival at Epcot? What did you try?

 

[Miffy2003]

Welcome home Eve!!

I have a few questions, hope you don't mind!

What did you think of ASMo? How were the buses? Where did you stay? What was the food like in the food court?

Sounds like you had a lovely time. It would be great to see any photos you might have!

I've so missed MNSSHP this year, it is so much fun!

Welcome home, by the way, glad you had a great time.

I'm intrigued with this dessert - please tell more

Welcome back Eve

We got back yesterday.The weather was lovely wasn't it?

 

[uktigger]

hi all
kaylee,we enjoyed mnsshp so much i think the next time we go it will be to include this again the kids or dh did not want to dress up but when we got there they started moaning that they hadn't they were wearing a chelsea and england football kits and while waiting to ride splash the CM shouted at them which footbller they had dressed up as so that pleased them a little the wait time wasn't that long i'd say about 5 mins altough in space mountain the rode 3 times in a row(i have a picture of them walking straight through with no lines)
we watched the second parade and got a seat by casey's it was great we watched the fireworks from fantasy land and they were out of this world, dh was filming in one direction and then all of a sudden they starting going up all around and in the end he didn't know where to hold the camera needless to say we were all speechless i'll get back to you tomorrow for help with posting my pictures of the desserts
unfortunatly we didn't do the food and wine we went to epcot on the saturday (16th)and it was the hottest day nearly 90 degrees andit was quite busy and the kids were wanting to go back for a swim,maybe next time

miffy
we enjoy staying at the movies this was our second time there i have always found the buses to be good we didn't wait to long and the driver one day told us that the movies was the biggest of the all stars and of a night it has its own buses
we were in building 8 of the fantasia building on the top floor we had interlocking doors as we went with my cousin,i was told that this is the prefered building altough i hadn't asked for it
the food court has plenty of options your typical burger and hotdog meals it has 3 or 4 options of cereal plent of juices and chilled drinks there is a pizza window and another counter that does cooked breakfast i can't remember what food it does there for dinner though
mrs dazzle
the glass slipper was lovely it's a white chocolate shoe filled with cream and on the plate it has the castle etched on the plate in chocolate and the dog bones were like two chocolate eclairs filled with chocolate cream and mickey sprinkles on and aslo has chocolate ecthed on the plate in the form of dalmations, they were delicious
kazzie,yes the weather was great altough at times it got a bit too hot and i ended up cooking, lol
did you have a good trip?

eve

 

[Miffy2003]

Thanks Eve!

That was a bit of a result to get Fantasia as you have to pay extra for that I think

Karen

 

[uktigger]

karen,i also thought that you had to pay extra for prefered buildings maybe i got it because my youngest was down on virgin's system as being disabled anyway it was a good building to be in and the kids had a whale of a time with the connecting doors between me and my cousins room

Eve,
Where the seats on the plane ok? I am asking because on another board!! an air crew member said that those seats were good for room but that being at the back of the plane you experience a "tumble drier effect" which makes any turbulence worse. I would like extra room but am a nervous flyer and wouldnt want this problem ... did you notice anything? was it turbulent?
I have already booked seats but was thinking of requesting the ones you have till I read this post.
