My daughter and I did the package in April. It was raining lightly when we arrived to check in. We were seated against an inner railing, back a row from the row of tables that looks directly over
World Showcase Lagoon. The black railing in the middle of the restaurant separates the package people from the regular guests.
Once we were seated, it started to rain heavily. There was thunder and lightening, and we had a great view for that. The front tables were getting drenched. People were complaining. The guests right in front of us had two groups of four with some elderly folks. Wait staff and management was running all over. Bear in mind, no one had even come to take our drink order! Those two front tables chose to move to tables which were directly in front of the Morocco walkway -- they were now way in the back. We finally got our drinks and put in our food order.
It was freezing and very windy. Rain was blowing through the entire restaurant. Announcements were made repeatedly delaying Harmonious. Overhead heaters -- like red heat lamps- suddenly sparked into life. We were warmer, but I really thought we were going to be electrocuted. I had more to drink. Our small plates came out and the food was good. I thought the flavors were a bit one note. I had another drink. Harmonious kept getting delayed. The wind changed direction and started blowing hard from the other side of the restaurant. The families who originally moved got soaked with rain again.
I had another drink, and they brought out the desserts. My daughter liked them. It was way past the time for Harmonious and they abruptly cancelled. We were staying at Coronado Springs and
I didn't want to drunkenly race across Epcot in the pouring rain to
wait for a bus. We took off for the International Gateway. Once past
the exit, there was a gigantic flood in front of the Skyliner. (which of course, was closed.) Everyone had to take off their shoes and wade through the water. The water was very cold. I was very unhappy and grossed out walking through it. We went to the Beach Club and called for a Lyft with tons of other confused people.
I had a great time!! I didn't see Harmonious, but it was a very entertaining evening. I bet this happens frequently -- they don't have enough weather protection for guests. I probably could have gotten my money back, but I was entertained. Absolutely.
