We decided to hit copper creek cabins for the 1st time, we had done the bungalows and always said we would try these in winter It was awesome!
let’s Start w the flight,
you stay social distanced then the plane gets in the air, they hand out cookies, cheese it’s, soda, water , etc and 99% of the plane takes off their mask to eat for an hour ( face palm) what was the point in socially distancing again ?
we got there and wilderness lodge was DEAD! Now it did pick up closer to the weekend but midweek was a ghost town and we loved it.
checked into the cabins which were BEAUTIFUL but a couple wierd things
1 the fireplace doesn’t put out heat it’s purely for aesthetics which i didn’t expect
2 if you try and use 2 showers at once or a shower and a bathtub the pressure drops and you lose hot water, did not expect that w such a high priced room.
that’s all the complaints the rest was aces ! the kitchen and living room are huge and inviting, waking up w the steam off the lake and the hot tub at night was a nice switch as the bungalows aren’t heated they are just a reg puddle pool.
MK and MGM (yes it’s still mgm to me and will forever be that way ) were mobbed, if you get there early though you can get most done before the Crowds pick up. We rode every ride we wanted to ride in both parks in a day which was awesome...13 miles but awesome.
Next day we did Ak and Epcot which were dead, especially ak. We finished ak so fast we had to go back to the room to kill a few hours before the park hopping kicked in.
‘’then we spent A few days in disney springs which was slammed, gidions bake house line was insane (we didn’t get in) art smiths and bar george were spectacular and moto was good too but def ranked behind the 1st 2.
the whole mask thing was a bit of a joke from the plane down to when you eat, we were sat literally at a door once and everyone walking in needed to wear one then like magic when you sit your saved lol it’s like it knows you got a water on the table
disney has a ton of ppl walking around the parks policing the masks so def i would advise booking sit down meals to relax. They have relax stations but it’s usually also the smoking section or at least the few we stopped at which was super annoying to smell cigs and not really relaxing at all.
last we circled back to mgm to give Star Wars land a full day it deserves, was kinda shocked olgas is a bar, wasnt expecting that or how the fuzzy ton ton makes your face go numb. The food they do serve is weird but awesome. A lot of stuff i got no clue what it even was but was happy i tried it. Amazed at how big a tifighter was, i imagined them much smaller. Loved how on rise of resistance yiu get that 50s prime time vibe where they are rude to you purposely calling you rebel scum.
2 things i would give a heads up to disney travelers even if you have been 1000x ....you will get lost in epcot lol even if you know it well the walls are so confusing disney really should put temp maps on the walls like NYC building sites and the second is don’t be afraid, its a blast! We loved this trip so much we booked again next month. In the words of warren buffet “ be greedy when others are fearful”
hope this helps ppl on the fence
