Let me just say this, Scrappy made me switch our January trip back to the Poly instead. The GF was okay, but its not the Poly. Its just not fun!

Yes its stinking hot down here and the locals are saying that too! God , I thought it was going to be a cooler trip.

Not a problem Mandy. We are at DTD now. Had to get a scooter for scrappy again. The foot just can't take the walking any more.

I hope it cools down before we get there November 8th! I'm not a fan of that kind of heat especially since we're doing the W&D half.

Thursday and Friday temps should be cooler and less humid. We expect to arrive at BWV around 4:45 pm on Friday(25th), and hope to be at Tutto Gusto around 5:15. Stop by for a beverage if you have time before the dessert party.

Had a great time at the MK yesterday and the MNSSHP! Very low crowds, went on everything we wanted to. No wait times at all for the rides, they even let us stay on the Log on Splash Mt, never got off. wanted to do a marathon ride, but Scrappy said no! mad

These are just screen shots. I'll put up better ones once we get the PP cd.

We had a very long and enjoyable day today. We did AK & HS today We were going to see if we could meet up with Jessi, but it was one of her days off. Had plans to meet up with Sally-Ann and and her DH at 5 for a drink before our Brown Derby ADR. They are two of the friendliest and wonderful people we have ever met. We had a drink at the Tune in Lounge before our dinner and talked until we had to run to our ADR at the Brown Derby but it was not a problem. Hope to meet them again on a trip to have more time together. biggrin awesome

The parks were pretty light today crowd wise and the temps cooled down a little. Fastpasses all worked great, did ToT, Star Tours & TSM. Had an awesome dinner at The Brown Derby and gave away some Disney Magic to young a couple celebrating their anniversary. and met another nice couple from NJ. Closed down the park and going to hit the hay! Whew. More tomorrow.

Thank you. We thought you were lovely people too. Glad you made the ADR I think we could have chatted for a lot longer! Scrappy thanks for the tip re Fantasmic we did wait and it was a lot easier getting out.

Off to F&W today

mr. Hub- is there any chance you can give me a report on the Yacht Club Lighthouse? Is it lit up at night? I want to know if my complaints are falling on deaf ears. To my knowledge it has been out since at least August 30th.

We were just talking about that last night while on the boat. No it is not lit & truthfully I don't every remember it being lit. I'm going to have to go back though my photos and see if I can find one with the light on. Do you have one Colonel?

I complained a few times now and have received acknowledgements but no explanations. I will complain again in December if its still not lit. I need others to join the choir. Please call the Yacht Club 407-934-7000 and ask for the operations manager. Or if you are lazy

[email protected]

and drop them a line.

It may sound silly, but it changes the look of the entire BW area.

BTW sorry to hijack. Nice report and hope you are having fun.
