KatieSue: if you don't have meal ressies for Magic Kingdom, keep trying to score one, or resign yourself to quick service while in that park.

Go to the biergarten HUNGRY

I hope the rest of the trip is magical Moonie!

*Whew*

I made it back alive from WDW. Just in time for a snow storm.....

It was definitely a mixed bag of a trip. Highlights included an all too brief meet up with Flippyshark for a guided tour around the world showcase, something actually fun in innovations, the savanna animals outside our window at the AK Lodge, IASM without the infusion of Disney characters, TOT with roaming ride vehicle, and the always fun Kilimanjaro Safari.

On the down side, forgotten meds that had us spending hours on a tour of southern Florida pharmacies, rain, downed attractions, Disney Studios in general, and most of all Brazil.

Last time we visited WDW in late January we pretty much had the place to ourselves. This time not so much. Apparently the entire country of Brazil decided to drop by for a visit. I can't count the number of times we approached an attraction only to see a guide carrying a yellow or green flag herding a group of 100+ in ahead of us. Plus the language barrier brought things to a crawl at all the food and merchandise locations. I had to switch to the more militarized summer high-season touring plan.

Still even a tough day at Disney is a good day so much fun was had, Zurg was defeated, A baby elephant was reunited with its mom, we made it to the concert on time, our car passed inspection and the new castle light show was phenomenal!

Cool!

Stan4dSteph · 01-25-2011, 01:57 PM

Yeah, those Brazilian tour groups are seriously killer in winter now.

Kevy Baby · 01-25-2011, 02:27 PM

Do all of the Brazilians have Brazilians?

Moonliner · 01-26-2011, 12:24 PM

Say hi to Moonliner and Flippyshark doing the standard Epcot pose.
