Matt's 18th Birthday trip - Now Live

Nice to see Wolfgang Puck offering alternate desserts. I recall it being Cookie, cookie or cookie a few years ago.

Second time I have seen that meatloaf - I am tempted....

The meatloaf is delicious - I'm not a meatloaf fan but even I loved it!

Loving the updates Wayne. We had a Dodge Caravan at Christmas and we were underwhelmed - we've gone back to a full size this year but hoping to use the upgrade voucher (Dollar) to get a premium. How do you do the pre-reg? Is it only if you've booked direct with Dollar?
 
Back to OKW to get them checked in, we had already been to reception earlier in the day to sort out room allocation, we got them in the studio directly above us.
We arrive at BLT 3 days before my brother and sister-in-law. Thought about squeezing them in to our one-bed for the 3 remaining nights we'll be there, but in the end we decided to book them a studio, so thinking of trying something similar. Was it a hassle-free process?

I could not imagine going back to Dollar without Express. 1-2 hours is just scary!

Really wish we had managed to fit in WPE as the food looks great for a CS credit :)

If you look in the sticky at the top of UK trip planning (link here http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1740814) scroll down to Transportation and Maps, then down to Dollar, I have added 2 links there. Although I am not sure I would use it again, far easier to just use my Express card and let them enter the details manually.

As Paul says really easy, just called at HH yesterday morning and told them relatives were arriving that evening, she took our room number and the room number that had been allocated to her supervisor, she looked on computer and came back to appologise, saying they couldn't get 2 together (which we knew, 2 studios don't sit side by side) but she could get a room in the same block, we were happy anywhere within 2 or 3 blocks so more than happy.

When we arrived last week we used the regular desk at Alamo it was so quiet, there were no-one renting cars (3pm ish) Yesterday was totally the oppsite at about 7pm, lines were snaking around at every desk, if the Dollar line moved fast it would be at least 1 hour, slow upto 2 hours. I know we had a bit of hassle sorting it out but still far quicker than the desks.

WPE is great on DDP but so expensive if not, a recent thread proved people believe its worth paying OOP for, I don't myself, yesterdays bill came to over $70, not a chance I would pay that, far better places offsite for less money, IIRC Logans Roadhouse came to $44 last week.

This morning at Seaworld. Lunch at POR, swim this afternoon, just going to get ready and take the boat to House of Blues for dinner.
 
Just a quick update tonight, its late and we have to be up early for Matt's Birthday.

House of Blues this evening. took boat so we could have a beer with meal, ended up being one bottle, karen had drunk her soda by the time we got a beer, service all evening was slow. Last time we ate there we had great service, this time rubbish, I enjoyed my steak but Karen didn't like her chicken at all.
Can't see us going back again.
