Thanks for the pictures of the Yachtsman steakhouse - we've never been, but now have an ADR there for our September trip. The food looks great and can't wait to try it.

It was delicious Jan and I'm not the big fan of the Yachtsman, my wife is, back I can truly say it was a wonderful meal.

Wheee! I'm so silly as I was watching the EE Video I caught myself "leaning" in the direction that the ride was turning.

Kali river was really rather disappointing because from what scrappy and I remember before there was a waterfall of some sort we thought that really got you wet. We barely even got wet on this and we were looking so forward to it. We get wetter on Splash Mt.

But anyway, we got done that and headed out, stopping to do a little shopping along the way and to suck up some AC. Yes it was hot. Very hot. But still not as hot as it was back home in PA, so we know we picked a good week to come down to WDW.

We headed back to the resort because Scrappy and I wanted to get in some pool time! Yes it was "POOL TIME" Doc!
We all got changed and headed down to the Clown Pool. Scrappy and I got down there first, scrappy stopped to have a smoke, I snagged a few open lounge chairs and off I went right for the water and the Clown Slide! Here's that video again.

Scrappy finally showed up and Tom & Del too, so I caught Scrappy and Del coming down the slide.

That was only Sunday afternoon!. Well after swimming we were relaxed and refreshed. I do think that pool is second to the AKL pool. We went back to our rooms, got cleaned up and changed and headed off the out ADR at BOG.

We walked straight down Main Street and through the Castle to Fantasy Land. Checked right in to BOG and down the bridge to the front of the Castle to await our turn.

When it was out turn, we were seated almost in the middle of the main ballroom. The Ballroom was stunning like always and dinner was delicious. After dinner we skipped dessert but Tom & Del were giving some of the grey stuff as a treat. We then checked out the other rooms before retiring to the Masters Study and getting a personal visit with the "Beast" himself. He is such a gentleman.

We exited the Castle, after touching the Rose mosaic and headed towards the Wishes Dessert Party. By this point scrappy's foot had about had it and I was getting pretty worried this vacation might be a bust for her. She could barely walk and it took us a while to get to the Terrace.

I'm such a chicken about coasters, but your video made it seem like it wasn't that scary - but that still might be as close as I actually get to riding it. wink I also enjoyed the ride down the water slide! weeeeee laugh

PS: You're looking quite sporty in your speedo... silly

All of you look so happy in the picture with the Beast! .... I love ALL your pictures.

Well computers dying must be the thing today because mine died about an hour ago and I am using my NOOK tablet to read everything. I will be shopping for a new one this weekend.
