MImom-- your ADR's sound good. I have not been to Crystal Palace since I was little I don't believe I have ever been to Trails End. It will be interesting to see what your reviews are.
I stopped in this morning just to see what was going on. Met with the Realtor again last night. :woohoo: And, it was late when he left and yada, yada, yada. Anyway, I saw this and had to tell you our Trail's End Buffet nightmares!! That's right folks, two of them!!!!! :furious: :furious:
Here's the background:
It was a dark stormy night. . . . . Just kidding :rotfl: Ok, for real. . . .
My mom, aunt, cousin and myself went to Disney in 2002 and stayed at FW in one of the cabins. We ate breakfast every morning at Trails End. The food was delicious and the service was excellent!! See that folks? Excellent.

Then next year we go back w/ my mom, two sisters, my sister's husband and my husband. Mom and I raved over Trails End. Made ressies to eat there and talked it up all over the place. We weren't staying at FW this time so it was a bit of a travel but we assured all it was WELL worth it!! We get seated and this guy named Alex with a strong Irish or Scottish accent is our server. He was HORRIBLE!!!!! He took forever to get to us for a drink order and when we did get our drinks he didn't come back to get us any refills. It was like he just forgot us!! Well, we made it through breakfast which was delicious! The food was excellent just like we had remembered it. :goodvibes Well, we had long been done and Alex finally makes his way over to us for the checks. We specifically told him we needed to split the checks and he assured us it was no problem. He took all of our forms of payment (ours was cash as was my mom's, but two DSis's were card). He came back and somehow the charges were all messed up. Then he wanted to "assure" (argue is more like it) that it was indeed correct. Well by this time it's late in the morning and the place is empty thankfully because then we're taken to the manager so we can get this straightened out. He sees what the problem is but Alex is nowhere in sight. He has completely disapeared. No problem as long as it's taken care of so we can finally be on our way!

Well, we go back in 2005 ---2 years later--- because the food really is good! we have our ressies and we're happy to be eating at Trail's End! Yum!! We get inside a guy takes our drink order, brings it back and then announces that Alex will be our server!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :scared1: Say it isn't so!!!! :crazy2: Well, it's two years later we reason if he's still here he's got to be better right? WRONG!! Forgot to check us for drinks and when he did finally come around my sister ordered two just to have on hand and when he brought some of our drinks back they were wrong. It was just a mess. I mean, what are the chances??? Luckily, this time we had cash. Of course he left us there forever before he even brought us the check. We've always had great service at WDW. We are not pushy, rude, demanding customers but we would like the basics of service to be carried out. Watch our drink levels, and don't leave us sitting forever and a day before bringing us our check. At one point the guy who had originally seated us came back to fill us up and we did say something about Alex and he said, "Oh, don't be too hard on Alex. He's having a bad day." Well, there really was no reason to push it with him further so we just let it go but it was the same level of service from this person on two seperate occasions, two years apart.

Like I said, the first year we went in '02 for the four days we were there the service was excellent every morning. Then it went downhill. And what's worse, we saw people all around us with good servers. It's like, I want to go back because the food is so good and the atmosphere is great but do we take a chance? They say third times a charm.
 
Good Morning All! It's Friday! :woohoo: :banana: :dance3:

I need to start DISing at night, because there are several pages I have to read.

sorry...couldn't resist :)

YM my fil is doing as good as can be expected. A lot of pain of coarse... he gets out tomorrow :cheer2: February would be great!! Kennys birthday is Feb. 19th :woohoo: so that would always be a great place to celebrate!!

2xcited2slp yes, Feb does sound great!! I'm sure you are busy in Dec... probably selling tons of gift cert. and getting everyone ready for the holidays. Ahhh I could use a good massage! I use to go to the spa a LOT before Kenny was born. My xmil and I have the same b-day so I'd take her and we'd spend the whole day there! I miss that...but now I just don't spend the $ on myself anymore... it goes on him...or his college fund :thumbsup2 !! Well, I better get some work done... crazy day today...these guys want paid :rolleyes: ....

If I can work it out where we can get the travel discounts that our buddy gets I'll share w/you guys :cool1: He has to travel w/us to get the disney discounts...but maybe I can talk him into going to wdw w/us and get us the discounts???!!! I know he can only get 2 cabins on the cruise but not sure his restrictions at wdw??? I'll check into it!

Have a great Friday everyone!!! Hi Ashley, Amber, April,Nicole,DznyFan,Michele,lyzziesmom,2xcited2slp,pozey,dolphinrescuegirl.. and anyone else I forgot!

:woohoo: Hope Blake made it home safe this morning!!! :cheer2:

eta: Wow DznyFan...I would not want to be there while its that crowded!!! Uhhh!!! Mike hates crowds!!! Love the cruise pix by the way!!! We like the crowds more like this:

Good Morning!!

Just waiting for Blake to get home from the airport. :cool1:

Linda...those pictures look amazing. Now I am starving. I am trying to loose some weight before school starts again. I lost about 15 pounds last year but have put almost 1/2 of it back on since late winter. If I don't loose some weight soon I will have to buy new clothes so I can go back to work. I don't think they would like it too much if I showed up in tank tops and shorts :confused3 There are soo picky ;)

ForTheLoveofDisney...OK note to self, if Alex is our server...RUN!!! I haven't eaten at Trails End in years. When we first started going to Disney in the 70's we stayed at Fort Wilderness. We would eat there a lot. About 10 years ago we took the kids there to do the pony rides. And had dinner there, I just remember a lot of good food and reasonably priced. We are going for dinner so hopefully Alex only works breakfast.

Oh that reminds me...when we took the kids for their pony rides. Matt was about 3 years old and had taken to calling his 'privates' his 'peanuts'. He gets taken to his pony, put up on him and the guy tells him the horses name, of course it was Peanut!! The sly little grin that went across Matt's face was too much. I was bent over from laughing. The guy that worked there thought I was crazy :crazy: Yeah, so what else it new?

I am rereading #5 now. I thought I would be all set for reading material for Florida but if I don't slow down, I am going to have nothing left. There are just too good to put down.
 
Good morning!

Dznyfan- :eek: I've never seen so many people in my life! I like Linda's pic much better!

Linda and Dznyfan- Thanks for feeding me!

April- Thanks for the tip! I will be sure to avoid Alex like the plague! I don't understand why he's still even there. Here's some pixiedust: for him. He sure needs it!

Linda- That's great that your FIL is getting out tomorrow. pixiedust:

Michele- I bet your happy that your DH is finally home!

As much as I love a good breakfast or dessert.......I LOVE me some Filet Mignon!!
 
DznyFan said:
Linda,
Oh what I wouldn't give for some Palo Chocolate Souffle right now.... :cloud9:

ME TOO!!! :love: it is incredible isn't it :cloud9: !!! And to think I didn't even go to Palo my first 3 cruises!!!! :rolleyes: Live and learn!!!

April..thanks...I'll have to remember to avoid Alex!!! You would think what they are getting paid they'd be a little better at their job! :sad2:

Michele... at least you haven't gained more than you lost to begin with :grouphug: I feel your pain. After Kenny was born I went back to work when he was 6 weeks old and I weighed less than when I got pregnant :woohoo: ... however that is when my ex went :crazy: on us and became a horses a**...so I gained about 15-20 lbs in the past 5 years..that's not horrible...but I'd still like to lose it. My dr. says my thyroid is part of the problem and changed my meds. to non generic so we'll see if that helps some. The Mt. Dew doesn't help :rolleyes1 I'm not overweight or anything so I guess I just don't worry about it too much...maybe when I can cut my hours some!! Good luck... I wouldn't want to have to go buy new clothes either. When do you have to go back to work? Maybe running around w/the kids w/sports starting will help. That would help for me ;). Good luck and we're here for ya!

Hehe...Peanuts :rotfl2: sounds like something Kenny would do! How adorable!!!

Good morning Nicole :)

We went for years with the crowds like that. We'd go ahead and pull DD out of school, bring along her weeks' assignments and homework, and off we'd go. Unfortunately, the High School only allows 7 absences per semester or it's an automatic fail, so if we go on vacation, that doesn't leave her any room for any kind of illness days off. Plus, it's just too hard on her to take her out of HS because of the daily lessons/work. I long for the days of off-season again, but our kids get out early enough here that we can still beat much of the rest of the country. This past trip our cruise was May 28 - 31, and we were at WDW for June 1 - 6. We got to go to the Flower and Garden festival, which we hadn't been to before, and to Star Wars Weekends, another first. We really enjoyed both! DD, a closet geek, really enjoyed SWW, and can't wait to go again next year.

Michele - sorry to hear of DH's delay, but glad to hear he's on his way home to you! pixiedust:
