Just a small trip report to let everyone know about our fun..
09/10 Arrived at MCO at 1:00. After a quick check in at ME we were in our room at POP by 2:00. Check in was fast and we arrived at DHS at 3:00. We rode TOT, RNR and did the GMR before our ADR at Sci-fi. The back POP for a swim and early night.
Sci Fi was great, our server MIke was friendly and the atmosphere is a 10
Ribs with fries-9
Butcher Steak-9
Brushetta Chicken Sandwich-6
Cheesecake-10
09/11 A full day at DHS. We walked on every ride today and seen all the shows with no wait, except Toy Story although we fastpassed twice and won a dream fastpass for a third ride. FYI we won the DFP in One Mans Dream at 10am
Hollywood and Vine- I can't remeber our servers name but she was okay nothing to brag about but brought drinks and was very effecient.-7.5
The food was nothing to brag about the roast beef was ok I would give the whole experience a 6.5 We only picked H&V for a fantasmic package which turnd out not to be needed as the park was not that busy.
09/12 MK and MNSSHP. No wait for any rides again today and we did them all. Seen the shows and stayed for the party which was well worth the money for the parade and fireworks alone.
Caseys- Hot dogs & fries-5 Did not enjoy this meal at all boiled hot dogs are not my thing.
Tonys-Fantastic, our server was Eric and he was great.9
Steak-9 green beans-9 potato-6
Salmon-9
Chicken Parmigan-9
Cheesecake-9
Tiramisu-9
I would recomend Tony's and we did try to get back but could not get a reservation the rest of the week.
09/13 Typhoon Lagoon was busy as it was a Saturday and it was HOT but we only wanted to lay around in the creek and play in the wave pool so it was great for us. After a quick stop to change at POP we went to DTD and it was crazy busy and probably not a smart place to go after a long day in the heat we were so tired after a couple of hours we grabbed a cab back to POP and it was well worth the $12.00.
EOS-our whole group of 5 rates this a 10 not a bad thing to say and I wish I could eat there right now.
09/14-Disney Quest, after a sunburn from the day before I switched our AK day to a day of rest (which wasn't so restfull lol) 4 hours in a nice cool dark arcade was a good idea. Then to the beach club for dinner at the Cape May Cafe and off to MK to see wishes and do some shopping.
Cape May Cafe-Clam Bake- service was ok its not to hard to bring drinks and take dirty plates away.We rate food and service a 7 although I will say the clam chowder was a 9. The actual clams and muscles had no real flavour although normally I love both.
09/15-Epcot, we walked on all rides but fast passed Soarin and Test Track even though wait times were only 10-15 minutes did all of WS stayed for illuminations for the first time and I have to say I like fantasmic and wishes better.
Coral Reef(lunch), everything was slow the wait at the door, the service and waiting to get our check was painfull the atmoshere is great but not worth the poor service when there are so man places to eat in Epcot-7 .
Lobster Salad and Soup-8
Maui Maui-8
Steak-8 ( not cooked enough for well done)
Mouse-9
Sorbet-7
Wave-8
POP Pizza delivery- it was your average cheap delivery pizza place, tye die cheesecake was good if you can get over the look of it. 7
09/16 AK we were at the Rainforest entrance at RD so we were ahead of the heard and got to ride the first Safari of the day, no waits for any rides and we got to see Nemo, Lion King and its Tough to be a Bug. We were out of the park by 3 and off to MK for dinner at the CP
Crystal Palace-we got a table with a beautiful view of the castle which always makes things a little nicer food was your standard buffet with nothing standing out but everyone found something they liked. As a group of adults and a 16 year old I don't think this was the right place for us but we did think it was cute.-7.5
09/17- time to leave such a sad day.
My thoughts on this trip are that September is a great time to visit as we had no waits for anything, we only got rained on 3 times but that is what pochos are for. The heat sucks the life out of you so just duck inside a show or store and take a breather. Free dining is GREAT..we had more than enough food and drinks and not having to think about money for food was fantastic.
So see you all next September only 11&1/2 months to go.
