Chapter 5. Num Nums!
2 explanations, 1. Num Nums are food, that is what we started calling food for parker when he was a baby and now that is what we call it, he wont say food no matter what, but he will say num nums, so there you have it.
#2. this will be a shorter update, there is not much left for that first evening, so i will finish it off and then the next chapter will start our Epcot first day in the parks update.
So everyone is familiar with our 27 modes of transporation that we took to get to this point in the evening, and we finally have arrived to our WL dinner destination via boat from the contemporary.
We were pretty excited about this, and it was skillet time.
They have the never ending shakes, here, so we ordered those for our beverages, they could also have been your deserts if you wanted...candi and nana picking out there shake flavors.
everyone got the skillet except candi who got the pot roast, she said it was okay, but not her favorite.
the skillet came out and we started to dig in, well parker wont eat chicken without ketchup so we asked for some...our waitress was pretty good, she was in good character,
here is a video of the ketchup delivery.
parker is not sure at first what is going on.
and right after they dropped it off we got a call for ketchup at another table.
now everyone at my table said im not taking it, so what happened, well oll daddio stepped up and grabbed as many as i could hold onto.
i then looked at the kids at the table next to me and said
"hey come with me and help me deliver this"
they didnt even hesitate they jumped right up. and soon we were headed off to the other side of the restraunt.
lesson learned: parents at disney are trusting and will let there kids go with strangers to deliver ketchup.
not sure this is a good lesson but it is true...
i have to say dinner was very good, besides the baked beans i liked it all, the beans were not really cooked to make them soft, they were still pretty hard.
the chicken was good, nice flavoring so was the ribs.
pulled pork was really good, just need more of the extra BBQ sauce they give you.
and the briscuit was awesome best i have ever had...actually it was the first time i have had it, so not sure what to compair it to,
but it was very good flavor and fall apart tender.
maybe someone that reads this thread who owns a BBQ joint can give me there reciep how to make it at home good...hint hint hint hint hint hint hint hint.
not singling anyone out or anything.
for desert we had 3 orders of the fruit to go, which was huge, one portion feed 3 people, and 1 order of the smore cheesecake, which was okay, a little heavy on the smore flavor but not bad.
after dinner we hung out in the WL lobby area for a while just checking things out, parker of course found some to do with trains and loved it.
his love for trains grew ever more on this trip, if there was ever a time we were going to change things we were going to do and he did not want to we explained how the next things had something to do with trains, and he was all for it...no some will say this might be lying, we say it is interpritation.
for example: we are going on the pooh ride now, parker says no no no...we say but it is a hunnypot that travels on a skinny little track like a train, he says okay.
see poohs hunny pot is a train ride= interpritation.
we could have opted for a boat ride back over to FW then take a bus or walk to our site, but we were feeling lazy and one nice thing about WL and FW transporation is there is a bus that goes between WL and FW and it is the same bus that travels right by our loop, so we took that home.
once home, it was present time for parker, he got the 2 cars that my parents bought him in DTD that evening, they got him the bus and monorail disney racer cars.
he loved them of course and added them to his collection.
sorry this is not as long as the other updates.
next udate will start the parks.
i hope everyone has a good 4th of july weekend, and for our friends reading abroad or via a neighborhing country hope you enjoy the weekend where you are...and if you feel like it shoot off a firework or 2.

hmm, need to check, possibly the American embassy will do something on Sunday... 
Have a wonderful 4th of July weekend!
I love how Parker would go anywhere if it had something (remotely) to do with a train!
to you!!
