Day 16 - May 19th
Will was wide awake at 6.50am and it was my turn to get up. Oh the pain
Got him ready and then woke my mother and James, leaving the rest of them sleeping. We met up with my aunts family and headed off for our ADR at Chef Mickeys. We checked in 5 minutes earlier than our reservation time of 9.25am and were seated almost immediately
The characters came out at 9.30am so the timing was great! Goofy was the first character at our table. His visit was like he was moving in fast forward! Pluto was next and he had very little interaction with any of us, barely stopping for a photo!
Mickey and Minnie were next and they made up for the less than impressive performance by the previous two. We all enjoyed meeting these two!
We had some napkin waving before Donald got around to us. He was good, though not as fun as Mickey and Minnie had been. Will loves Donald though and he got so excited to meet him he grabbed Donalds beak and pulled very hard
All we could do was laugh! Donald made a rather quick exit after that
We all really liked the food. I had a bowl of mandarins, strawberries and watermelon and then this plate of hot food.
I also got another pancake, mickey waffle, some more creamy breakfast potatoes (which were amazing by the way!) strawberries and donut holes. You could have rolled me out of there I was so stuffed
Will had a little of everything but I think he pretty much ate his weight in strawberries, they were definitely his favourite!
Our table of 7 adults (the two infants were free) came to $270 which included the automatic 18% service charge. The service was not deserving of the tip in the slightest but the food and characters were great and we will definitely be going back. We were finished and on our way out by 11.15am.
When we got back to the villa all the men folk decided they were going for lunch and drinks to Devenneys pub just down the road, there was some sort of football match on. The rest of us went to Walmart for about an hour, I bought stuff to make a scrapbook of our trip and also Mickey decorations for Wills birthday (getting a little ahead of myself there but couldn't help myself!) The men were gone for the rest of the day so we just relaxed.
