Day 1--Saturday, May 7, 2005
Lily, where are you?
It was a cool, rainy day when I left Boston. I was glad to be heading South for a week in the Florida sunshine. My Jetblue fligbt left Boston about 30 minutes late, but we made up some time in the air, and landed about ten minutes late.
My FL Tours towncar was waiting for me when I got to baggage claim. My bag was one of the first ones off the plane, and after making a quick grocery stop, we were on our way to the Dolphin, where I would be spending my first night.
I met Tiger Lily 03, who would be joining me for four nights, in the lobby of the Dolphin. I was told there was a package waiting for me, but what that package could be remains a mystery, as the package was never located. So if some nice DISer left me a package, please let me know what it is because I never got it.
We had room 7027. Our room overlooked Epcot, and Jellyrolls. Someone must have known what my favorite place is, and assigned my room accordingly. I really liked my room, and the heavenly bed sure did live up to it's name. We didn't really have time to enjoy the resort, as we only spent about 15 hours there, but I liked what I saw, and would definitely consider staying there again when Im short on DVC points.
We quickly dropped our things off in the room, and made our way to Downtown Disney. We were planning on having dinner at Wolfgang Puck's Cafe. We both starrted off with potato soup. The potatoes were pureed to a liquified form, not what either of us was expecting, I thought it was a bit on the bland side. We both got filet mignon with asparagus and mashed potatoes. I really enjoyed my meal. The meat was very tender, and the potatoes were incredible. I dont like asparagus, so I gave Lily mine, and she said it was very good. We were both too stuffed from our meal to order dessert.
We then headed over to the Marketplace for a spell. I wanted to upgrade my annual pass to a premium annual pass. We went to guest relations, and took care of that, and browsed around a few stores. I got a package of stickers and a Mickey punch for my scrapbooking.
We just missed a bus to the Dolphin, so we decided to hop on the bus to the Yacht Club. I was a bit anxious to make it to Jellyrolls, as my beloved Scotty and Ray were playing. I stopped at my room in the Dolphin, and called about my package. A security guard went searching for it, but couldnt find anything for me. Lily ran over to the Boardwalk Bakery for coffee.
I then started to walk over to Jellyrolls, and passed Lily on the way. She told me there was a line out the door to get into Jellyrolls. Since it was about 11:00 by this point, I decided I would skip Jellyrolls that night since I would miss a good chunk of Scotty and Rays set to get in. I figured Id get a good nights sleep and get ready for my first day in the parks.

I guess that little detail sticks out more than anything else - you know, geting a phone call at 2:30 in the morning, having to get a bail bondsman and wrie the $$$, then having to catch a red-eye flight to Florida after you skip bail.......
