yay for the sci-fi!
It's a tradition of ours!
I tried the oreo shake last time and loved it.
The problem is that they bring the shake first, and by the time the food gets there, I'm almost full lol Yeah, I have no self-control when it comes to food in Disney.
Sci-Fi was good, we liked it. The ambience really makes it great and the orero shake was delicious for sure.
And P.S., I have no self control for food, period haha
great report. I'm really kidda looking forward to our sci fi ressie
you should be! and you leave so soon!!
What a fun update. Two of my favorite things to do at that park. We always go to Sci-Fi and we haven't ever had a bad meal yet. Of course, we stick to simple stuff, but we wouldn't keep going there if I thought it was bad. So weird about the seating.
ToT and Sci-Fi are 2 great things in DHS. What I hear from most people is, like you said, stick to simple stuff at Sci-Fi and you'll be good. The seating situation was a little weird though.
Fun! Did you notice how they changed ToT? It was like a ton of little bunny hops instead of one big drop then back up and down a few times. It was TERRIBLE when I went in May - I thought I was going to vomit!! I'm glad you liked sci fi - we had slow service as well and were also seated in the back of a family's car. I would've asked for another table as soon as I saw the baby in the high chair LOL
I didn't notice the changes to ToT, probably because I hadn't been there in 3 yrs when I went and in 2005 I wasn't a Disney fanatic like I am now haha
The Sci-Fi seating thing was good. The people luckily finished eating before we did so it worked out alright but we probably should have just asked to move now that I think about it! LOL
I like this area. It's always so nice and shady, and the landscaping and decor is cute.
That area is so cute! I wish I would have gotten more pictures over there.
Awesome CAR! Is yours black? I love black cars! Also, thanks for the pictures from the TOT because DH and I don't want to ride it but I always say I would love to walk through it and then EXIT.. hehe and soo those pictures were awesome to see. its exactly as I pictured! hehe
and don't worry about getting behind on the TR and other TR's I'm always behind lately.
Thanks! Mine is black yea, the only thing it doesnt have yet is the spoiler on it thats in the picture. I'm getting that put on soon.
You and your DH should ride ToT! Don't be wimps! LOL How'd you grandma's visit go?
just caught up!
so funny about the bus driver creating a story with the announcements. how random but fun!
go you for beating chris!
i love sci-fi - glad you guys liked it too. they probably sat you in the same car because not all the servers were there yet and so they were just seating the sections for the servers that had arrived. i know when i worked at a restaurant we'd have servers that would come in at 30-minute intervals between 10:00 and 12:00 for lunch shifts. just a guess though!
The bus driver was so hilarious he had the whole bus rolling laughing so hard.
I was sooo thrilled to beat Chris on TSM, go me!
We liked Sci-Fi, we would eat there again as long as we stuck to basic stuff. You're probably right about the seating. IT was only a little after 11 so I would assume that not all of the servers were there yet. Thanks for the insight
Fun update!!! I definitely agree that ToT is Disney theming at its best! Too bad I have been too chicken to ride it since 1998.
You mentioned a hand bar in front -- do all the rows have that?
Sci-Fi is too much fun! Did you laugh the entire time during all those movie clips? I think we were crying from laughing at the cheesiness!
The themeing of ToT is on the same level as AK themeing, in my opinion! I love it! I know you don't ride it but you totally should give it a shot again!! The handbar I only noticed in the front row. It worked for us since we clung to them haha
Sci-Fi was really cool. We didn't get to enjoy the clips as much as I would have liked to thought because we were in the back of the restaurant and we were in the car with the family in front of us. We have to try it again now, I guess!
I love the ToT line once you get inside the building! That ride makes me laugh. Love the redneck pic!
Haha..the GMR movies while in line..you'll get annoyed with me over break. I sing along to all the songs and say all the words to the narrator's stuff to announce the movie.
Sis hates me in that line.
OMG, I hate it when the driver tries too hard to have the "New York accent".
WOOO! American Idol's coming up!
ToT is one of the best rides in WDW, I love it! The redneck pic is funny haha
I wont get annoyed that you say the words on the GMR, I'll probably try to learn them with you! The gangster is annoying with the accent.
I always hang on for dear life at TOT. They do a great job with freakin you out. I always have to build up some courage to ride that one. Sci-Fi dinner looked so fun! And I'm excited to hear about American Idol!!
Even though I wasn't scared for ToT, the stomach dropping can't help but get you nervous! Sci-Fi was really cool and AI is coming up soon!
Excellent update! That is really interesting about the TOT and how they designed it to blend in with the Morocco pavilion. I've never heard that before! I love your ride picture too, though I am usually more like the person in the yellow behind you guys with their arms up in the air!
Glad you enjoyed Sci-Fi too. We've always enjoyed it there.
Can't wait to hear about American Idol!!!!
I knew someone would be interested in my random WDW trivia haha Next time I need to be the brave person with my arms up like you. I'll do it and take a picture of the redneck shot to prove it LOL
My DD and I LOVE the TOT. We could ride it all day. We finally talked my husband into riding it last year and he also like it. Maybe not as much as we do, but at least he liked it and I could say "I told you so". Now we only have to get DS (6 years old) to learn to like it, that may be impossible for a while.
Glad you got your DH to ride ToT! I wonder if he'll ride it again next time you go, that will be the true test of how much he likes it LOL I love that ride so much!
Hey! i found your trip report yesterday and im almost caught up!
It really caught my attention because after i started reading i realized we have a lot in common, im from long island also and from what you've said in your TR it sounds like we live within 10 minutes of each other. Also, im going to the world in aug (33 days!) with my boyfriend for our 3 year anniversary, and we are staying at one the the all-stars too, ASSp.
It sounds like you had a great time and im really enjoying reading your TR because it is getting me so excited for my trip. Great pictures too!
glad you're joining the TR!! Thats so cool that you're from LI! Where do you live? I understand if you don't want to say in online, thats cool with me but I figured I'd ask anyway. So cool that you're leaving for the World so soon! I'm jealousssss.
We definitely had an amazing time in WDW and I'm glad you're enjoying reading about it. I love your avatar too!
I wish I had that problem! As for working out, I run in the mornings. If I have work I wake up a half hour before I normally do and run a mile. If I don't have work I just wake up whenever and then go running first thing and do a mile and a half. I'm hoping if I keep doing it I'll finally lose some weight and build up my endurance!
but this one we bought along with another one I'll show you later that we got free with booking a package. I think this came out really cute if I do say so myself. I scanned it so quality is not so great
Anyway, we made it almost to the attraction and Chris felt a grumbly in his tumbly that needed tending to ASAP. He headed off to handle his business while I just waited near the Chronicles of Narnia attraction. (Side note: that's one attraction i'm sure i'll NEVER do at WDW.) I took a few pictures while waiting, of course.
