So far we have visited MK, DHS, and AK. Today is Epcot.
First impressions...we ended up renting a car and we have learned that the signage around the resort does not coincide with things like Google Maps! We have missed our turns multiple times because google maps wants us to turn on a specific street name and those street names are usually not printed on the Disney signage. We've now had to use the Gaylord Palms' parking lot three nights running to turn around
The lines seem crazy long but they all move very steadily.
The queues here are so much more fun and interesting than at
Disneyland!!!! Particularly the queues for Toy Story Midway Mania and Peter Pan!
The facade of iasw is.... weird and tiny here!
AK is really lovely and lush, especially for someone like me who was born and raised in the desert!
We have tomorrow scheduled for MK (we still need to do Country Bear Jamboree, Big Thunder, and Space Mountain as well as shopping at the Emporium) and Monday at DHS, but I am pretty sure we will either change that last day to a different park, or just visit various resorts because I don't think either of us need another full day there.
Table service restaurants so far have been: Jungle Cruise Skipper Canteen, Sci Fi Drive In, and Yak and Yeti. Today is Rose and Crown and tomorrow is BOG. Oh and I literally JUST made a breakfast reservation for today for The Wave so we are looking forward to that.
Man, the Contemporary from the outside is NOT ATTRACTIVE!!!
We did hang out for a bit at the Banana Cabana the other night and it was quite lovely. Wish the restaurant here was open, but not yet.
Skyliner is fun although we only used it as an "attraction" the other day when we knew it wouldn't be busy (we drove to DHS and left the car there, then hopped on the Skyliner back to CBR, then hopped right on the other one to POP/AoA, then reversed course to get back to the car). It's great when there is no line!
We got our annual Christmas ornament, so that task has been taken care of! We've gotten an ornament from Disneyland on our mid-November trip every year since our first dating anniversary so we had to keep up that tradition.
Spending a LOT more money on dining than I normally would on a Disneyland trip, but while in DL we almost never do table service. I wanted to make sure, with all the closures, that we would be sure to be able to eat something other than burgers and chicken strips each day so I knew going in that we'd be spending more money there.
Weather has been warmer than I expected except the first night where we were quite chilly- we had gone over to Disney Springs and ate at the Boathouse (mac and cheese was AMAZING... gosh I love mac and cheese). But the subsequent evenings have been lovely. Yesterday I wore a tank top all day until it rained, and even the rain wasn't a cold rain.
Well now that I've talked your ears off (or written your eyes off), I shall cease and desist and get ready for breakfast!
