Okay back to the trip report, and getting used to a new Mac.

We left BOG and headed over to the Tomorrowland Terrace Fireworks Dessert Party. That was very nice and the Dessert were really nice and good. It was very warm though and they were having issues with their ice machine for cold drinks. The fireworks were spectacular though. I would have like it better Im sure if I hadn't worried been so worried about scrappy's foot putting a damper on the trip for her.

Did you think the dessert party was worth the extra money? Besides the desserts, was it a good spot to watch the fireworks from?

Allie yes I do think it was a good spot to watch the fireworks. Granted , those fireworks we saw were 360 Degree around us, so we never would have seen them all, but for regular fireworks its a nice spot, plus your not jam packed with people. So what if your not directly in front of the castle, your off to the side a little bit, and Tinkerbell damn near lands on your head!

I will add the rest of the fireworks when the video is done.

So after the Dessert party we waddled back to our car and then back to our resort to get scrappy off her feet after a long day. It wasn't a fast trip, got in after midnight and crashed.

Did a little decorating to the door too.

Next morning started with going for coffee. I ran down to the Boardwalk bakery and got coffee's on the way back I stopped at the concierge desk and asked about getting a wheel chair. The CM told me to wait right there and 2 minutes later she was coming out the side door with a chair and all I had to do was sign next to the X, no charge, she said keep it for as long as we are staying.

So I headed back to the room, coffee's and wheel chair in hand!

Of course scrappy didn't think she was going to ride around in a wheel chair, until I told her if she didn't, I was canceling our Oct trip! Guess who won, me! Ha! I almost fell over.

So we headed down to Tom & Del's room after we got done our coffee's and were off to our ADR at Cape May Cafe.
This is always one of our favorite places to have breakfast because everything is fresh, they keep it stocked and its still a character meal, but not ever a busy one. Its always very calm here.

Got into HS and it was already starting to get hot! It wasn't to crowded though. Seemed busier just trying to get in.

We strolled down Main Street, did some shopping, watched some street shows and stopped for a drink. Got a frozen lemon aid and it was delicious!

And then we went to Star Tours and saw our Favorite CM of all! Jessi!

She was on break so as soon as she was done she came and saw us, we waited just inside the entrance in a nice cool wide pull off spot. We talked for a bit, then she had to run. We never did get to meet up with her again during the trip, so maybe next time Jessi, we'll do dinner, if your free!

We did meet one of Jessi's Co workers/friends there too.

After seeing Jessi everyone let me get my ToT fix, I needed it bad! We then headed back out of the park and back to the resort for some resort time. We walked around the boardwalk and went through the shops there went back to the room for a while and cleaned up. After a while we headed out to Epcot. We had a dinner ADR a Via Napoli.

Off we headed to Epcot and around the World! We got a great seat in Via Napoli. We were in the main dinning room, never ate in there before. Our waiter was Luigi and he was a great guy!

We ordered a salad and two Pizzas. We killed them! I had that Italian beer and it was ridiculously good.

Man, do I love your report! All your pics just make me SO anxious to get back!

I loved the pizza at Via Napoli, and it's for sure the cheapest family meal in WDW.

Thanks Taratu, Allie & Eeyore. Scrappy & I are already excited to get back there in October too!

Well Via Napoli was awesome, great pizza, best in WDW by far. Also Luigi was a great waiter, Shout out to him! Thanks Luigi!

We walked around the WS, I got a school bread and made everyone sick because I could eat it and no one else could. (That was my first one ever!) I just had to get one when we came out of the Maelstrom.
