I just returned and hope to post a full trip report between this week and next.
summery......
FUN, FUN, FUN......and some relaxation (believe it or not)
Weather: Sunny and 80's every day...lows in mid to upper 60's...not a drop of rain
Food: Chef Mickeys, California Grill, Boma, San Angel in Mexico, Cindy's Castle, Concourse Steakhouse, Casey's, Kona Cafe, Food Court @ All Star Movies, Food and Fun Center @ Contemporary....Grandma and Grandpa also did Jinko and Flying Fish. ........All good
Service: Cast members at Parks and Hotels were great
Park Crowds: MGM seemed most crowded with the exception of Sat evening at MK for Spectro. Most rides were on average 10 min wait except for Rock n roller coaster, BUZ, Test Track, Tower of Terror and Space Mountain....Fast Pass was not working for Buz.
Park Hours: shorten hours made seing shows a little more dificult especially at MGM but for us it gave us a chance to really enjoy the resorts...especially the contemporary....there is so much to enjoy at the resorts that we usually do not take advantage of.
Character's were very plentiful but we did not see the character caravan...never tried though.
hopes this gives all of you a taste of the magic....i'll get settled back in the routine and start working on my trip report.
