Tuesday 28th August

Today is one of my favourite days at WDW.

We got the bus from Saratoga today to MGM as we knew we would be drinking early as today is the day we are meeting Claire (Fizz13) and her friend Carly and Michelle (Angel659). I have met Claire twice before and am so excited to see her again and meet Michelle and Carly.

Our lunch ADR at Primetime is early at 11.40. We have never been to this restaurant before and am really looking forward to it. It definately does not disappoint.

The others are there when we arrive and Claire looks lovely in her Mickey ears. We get a nice table and a very young looking waiter who played his part really well.

Michelle and me ordered a cosmopolitan which was really strong. They seem awfully tight with the mixers here in WDW!!! I am now quite envious of Claire's attractive looking cocktail

We do not order a starter but go straight for the mains. The food here looks lovely (apart from my own)

Well it was stuffed peppers and it was ok, it was just that everyone else's looked really nice. The waiter told us off for putting our elbows on the tables and kept a check to make sure we were eating our vegtables.

I had a really great lunch and it was brilliant to meet Michelle after speaking to her on the DIS and Carly was lovely too and always so good to meet up with Claire.

I ordered another cocktail a longer one this time and it was blue

Poor Mark was a bit quiet as he is a bit shy on DIS meets. Well actually I don't normally tell him he is going to one. However I did tell him we were going to this one. If he has a drink he is usually ok!

I get a great photo of me and Michelle

The one Kirsty takes though is my favourite as I just love the Disney 50s TV above our heads

We say our goodbyes and hope to meet again some time soon.

Me, Mark and Kirsty are off to Epcot and take our favourite walk alongside Broadwalk Villas

By now we are getting quite tipsy and go to Japan. Kirsty is excited to be reunited with Pokeman

Here we find the perfect present for my friend's husband who is going to be 40. He teaches juditso and loves everything Japanese. We get him and an engraved necklace (dog tag type) with the words happy 40th birthday steve in Japanese. Luckily his names is steve.

While we wait for it to be made up Mark practices his moves!

We have now had enough and walk to the Yacht club bus stop to catch a bus back to downtown disney to walk home.

We have a few more drinks in our villa and decide to have a late night swim

We were at 50s Prime Time at that exact time on the same day (we ended up making a last-minute ADR) - I am surprised we didn't see you.

Lovely pics :)

It would have been really spooky to have bumped into you again, but it would have been so good and to get a photo with us all would have been great.
