It's a 15-20 minute walk along the path from MGM to the Boardwalk area- it will come out near the feature pool- and then another 5-10 min around to the other side. If it's brutally hot, it's not a very shady walk. But then again, the boat's a/c is apparently not working.. so it could be uncomfortable regardless. At least you'd have plenty of ventilation if you walked.
I don't think there IS a bus to All Star Cafe, which is at Wide World of Sports. And aren't they about to undergo renovation to a CS soon? Kinda sad cuz it's one of the few places you could easily get a walk-up and it was reasonable. Even on Thanksgiving it was empty. I think you have to walk from another location dropoff- either one of the waterparks or a golf course. Someone will come along and enlighten us.
But I'll be there before then (9/8 to 9/14). I'm really just looking for an alternate to ESPN for football on the first Sunday of the NFL season, since I probably wouldn't get there until after kickoff and I expect it would be packed. My bet is that the local CBS affiliate will pick the Jags over the Dolphis, who are playing my beloved Skins in DC.
