My Disney Birthday Wish Came True! – June 2025 Trip Report (Updated 6/21!)

[VAtink]

I'm so glad you got to say goodbye to the Muppets. I tried but...well...that story will come up soon in my report.

Me too, I do really hope they bring it back somewhere! And oh no! I'm sorry you missed saying goodbye, I'll keep an eye out for your TR updates!

Also, even though I am mostly a die-hard Pop girl now, I agree that deluxe resorts should not have to share a bus. Crowded, it takes too long to either get to the park or get home, just not ok.

Yup, totally agree. And I swear they run fewer busses to the deluxe resorts, it seems every time we're waiting for a bus we'll see multiple buses for the All Stars before a bus ever shows up for the YC/BC.

Add me to the entitled group. Drives me nuts some days that the deluxes share buses. I don't even like the Kidani and Jambo often share a bus at AKV. In the early morning peak times, they do often split the buses. I try to stay at the first stop (especially if I have my mom with me who uses a scooter). There have been several times that we get to our resort and the driver practically has to beg people to get off the bus for a few minutes to allow the scooter off. So annoying.

We should start a No Shared Bus for Deluxe club Seriously though, it is supper annoying they share, I really wish they would have separate buses!

Day 2, Part 4: Dinner at Club Level​

We last left off leaving HS.

We got back to the WL right at 5:15, and after dropping our purchases off at the room, made our way to the lounge to grab dinner.

The hors d’oeuvres this evening were SO good! They had a cold chicken salad that was amazing, a regular salad with a dressing I’m dying to find a recipe for, a bison lettuce cup, and then the warm dishes were a chicken dish and a sausage dish.





We tried most of everything. I noticed though my mom didn’t get any of the sausage dish, so I asked her why not, and her response was “I wasn’t in the mood for sausage.” However she had a stack of charcuterie meats on her plate so of course I had to call her out since there was definitely sausage there!

I hate to say it, but the hors d’oeuvres here were significantly better than over at CSR.

I also picked up a sauvignon blanc and grabbed my mom a beer and cider so she could make a snakebite.

We really enjoyed this meal there this evening, and went back to get seconds of some of our favorites.









After eating we decided to go finish unpacking and rest a bit. Before leaving the lounge I had to show my mom the chocolate train!



We then headed back to the room to finish unpacking and rest a bit. While resting my mom somehow swung her arm over to the night stand and ended up knocking her snakebite she had gotten earlier off onto the floor! Oh no! Fortunately, the glass didn’t break, but we did end up using almost all the towels cleaning up the mess. Oops!

Is this new or there for a special reason? I don't think it was there last February.

We have found the lounge food to be very good.

Wow! The food looks amazing!! Someday I'd love for you to do a compare and contrast / ranking of the club lounges.

Good question, I actually don't know! When the CM gave me the tour of the lounge she pointed it out, but didn't really say much about it other than that everything was chocolate.

I was very impressed with the food here, every night was delicious!

It was sooooo good! Funny you mention comparing the different clubs, I've actually started a spreadsheet to compare them all, once we stay in each I'll post my review! I will say that WL is towards the top, we really enjoyed our stay there and the lounge!
