Just Back

[punkin]

We're back from 4 days in the World. Had a blast. Went WAY over budget. DH went on Mission Space 2X on Friday and 3X in a row on Sunday. After the third time he was feeling a little queezy. He loved it.
It rained every afternoon, but on Friday e-night it rained the whole night and it was pretty much a washout. In any event we satyed almost two hours and got back to the hotel soaking wet. Will be happpy to answer any questions.

I have a few questions for you.

Where did you stay? Any children/toddlers travelled with you? Despite the rain, do you think the e-night was worth it? Eat at any good places? How were the crowds?

Thanks in advance.

We stayed at the Courtyard Mariott that I got on priceline for $29. It was clean and nice, but not fancy. We had e-night priveleges but not EE. My 4 year old daughter was with us. We ate at BOMA (fabulous), Kona Cafe (lunch-not bad food, terrific desserts and coffee), Wolfgang Puck at DD (pretty good sushi and great salmon pizza), Akershus (had the venison stew and salmon-both very good and the cold buffet was great too) We had 2 character breakfasts. PSB at Epcot was OK. The food was not too bad. We had Minnie (in her Hollywood and vine outfit), Aurora, Jasmine(acted like she was in a hurry to get somewhere-terrible interaction), and Belle (who was absolutely wonderful and spent several minutes with my daughter). The other was Crystal palace, where I thought the food was great and fresh and the characters were great.

Now about crowds. Crowds were moderate to somewhat heavy for the most part. We had no trouble doing the rides we wanted. However, MK yesterday was a mad house. We left around noon and tomorrowland was wall to wall people, Buzz had over an hour wait; we had trouble walking down mainstreet trying to get out of the park because of all the people comming in. When we were driving out, it looked line the parking lots were all filled except for one.
