Day 3, Part 3: Another Geyser Point Lunch!
We last left off finishing up our Arts and Architecture tour at WL.
Once we wrapped up with the tour, we wanted to swing by the store to pick up the Wilderness Lodge shirt, but on the way over we ran into Dale! Of course we had to stop to say hi.
After our fun little meet, we made our way to the store to grab the shirt, then headed upstairs to drop out bag off, and then headed over to the lounge to get mom a snack and some wine.
Our original plan for this day was to grab lunch down at Geyser Point again, but since we had plans at noon, we decided this day to do the mobile order to save some time so we wouldn’t be late.
I had put in the mobile order that morning, I got the new bison meatballs, and mom got the multigrain salad with salmon.
Just before 11 I made my way downstairs and hit the “I’m here” button for our order. I left my mom in the lounge her glass of wine since her foot was hurting so it just made sense to keep her off of it.
I was hoping it would be a quick pick up. I was wrong, although this is not a bad thing. Unlike other quick services, they make the food here to order, so it takes a bit longer but you get better quality/fresher food!
I ended up waiting over by the pickup window for about 20 minutes for it. While waiting there were SO many groups who came over to check-in at the old check-in location which was right by the mobile order pickup. I was laughing so hard at this, there were two signs, and they stopped to read each one which clearly pointed towards where the new check-in was, and each and every group that stopped to read the sign, still stayed there hovering around where it used to be until a CM had to come over to tell them the check-in moved.
Anyways, our food was finally ready, so I went to bring it back upstairs, only to find while waiting they had closed off the walkway to get back to the lodge to do some refurb work! Oh no! So I had to take a detour, that wasn’t bad, but we were already in a time crunch, so I was in a rush!
I made it back upstairs and found mom in the lounge and we dug in.
The meatballs were really good, I definitely recommend, and the salad my mom got was amazing as well. The salmon on it was the most perfectly cooked piece of salmon I have ever tried! They do good at Geyser.
We finished up our food very quickly since we were running out of time and had somewhere to be! Once finished we swung by the room to drop off the leftovers before heading to our next activity!

It took a while to figure out why when one side was flush to the wall, the other side stuck out like 1/4". Fortunately after a bit of finagling I managed to get it hung and I love the way it turned out!
It wasn't well marked. And people coming from the villas or the bus stop would have a longer walk.
