Scrappy & Mrhubs May 2014 trip

We made our way over to World Showcase just in time to realize we were ready for a little something to eat. We had went to our left so Mexico it would be.

We walked a little bit further around World Showcase but soon realized we had better start back to our resort if we wanted to have time to get cleaned up for dinner. So a couple of monorail rides and we were home sweet home again. Dinner was at the Yachtsman Steak House. This time we drove our car to the Yacht Club and used valet. You can valet free with your TIW card as long as you are parked no more than two hours. Dinner was awesome!!! It always is.

We went back to the resort after dinner and decided we were both tired and just needed a night of relaxing. So that is exactly what we did. We just relaxed in our room till it was time for the fireworks. We watched them from our balcony before calling it a night.

My highlight of the day was enjoying all of the flowers at the F&G festival. My only low was having to admit that I am not as young as I used to be and that sometimes I need a little down time.

Marks highlight of the day: will fill in once I ask him

Wednesday we woke up to another beautiful day. We had no plans for today other than dinner at Fultons. We had not made any FP+ selections. While drinking our coffee we decided to head over to MK for rope drop. We were a little later getting there since we decided last minute to do it. We did not quite make it through the Magic Band area. People were backed up that far waiting for rope drop. It was funny though because once we got inside, it was not busy at all. We had a breakfast of champs, Starbucks. You can see from the pictures how low the crowd was this early.

We spent several hours in the MK. We rode most of our favorites and looked through a few stores and for the most part just enjoyed being there. Soon we were both getting a little hungry again since we had such a light breakfast. We have read so many good things about the tuna fish sandwich at Columbia Harbor House that we decided we would give it a try. It really was as good as everyone says it is. So much so that we did not think to take a picture of it.

By the time we finished our lunch it was getting quite warm outside. Time to head back to the resort and enjoy a refreshing dip in the pool. Mark took his waterproof camera down to the pool. He did however forget about his earplug. He has a tube in his one ear and is to keep water out of that ear. He did not remember this until after we had been down there and under water several times. Oops, oh well, it did not seem to hurt his ear.

Refreshed and cooled down, it was time to get showered and get ready to head to DTD. We wanted to arrive at DTD early due to the parking situation. We did find a parking space rather quickly. It was time to shop!!! Actually I did not really buy much this trip. I did buy that new Dooney purse. Mark bought several items he "had" to have. We also got to see the food trucks for the first time. They really are pretty cool to look at. Although I did not see much offered that I had any interest in, Mark thought a good bit of it looked good. Finally it was time for our ADR at Fultons. I was very excited to be giving it another try. I have always enjoyed my meal there but Mark had not been that happy with his meals the last two times. Thank Goodness....he was very happy with this meal this time.

I know we have more pictures of our meal and the new food trucks but I can not find them. Mark will have to add them. Anyway, after dinner we drove back to the resort. We had decided that we wanted to head to the Poly tonight to watch the Electric Water Pageant and Wishes. We jumped on the monorail. Once we got to the Poly we headed right down to the boat dock. It was not long till the Water Pageant began. There was only one other couple on the dock watching. There are also four benches so we even had a seat. It is such a fun thing to watch. The Water Pageant runs at the Poly at 9:00. The fireworks were not till 10:00 so we knew we had time to take a lap around on the little Poly boat. We sailed over to the MK, back to the Grand Floridian and finally back to the Poly. It was such a lovely evening for a little cruise. By the time we got back it was not to long till the fireworks started. Again we had no problem getting a bench to sit on to watch them. We did not take many pictures this evening. We were both enjoying just being where we were.

Another trip on the monorail and we were back to our resort. The end to another perfect Disney Day.

My highlight for the day was not having any plans and just doing whatever we decided we felt like doing. I so enjoyed our evening just hanging out on the Poly dock. I did not have a low for today.

We found a few more pictures from Wednesday. Marks meal and the food trucks at DTD.

Thursday morning we had a Breakfast ADR for Cape May. This is one of our favorite breakfast places and a must do every trip. It is good food with characters and not as crazy as the character meals in the parks.

During breakfast Mark decided he wanted to try to book a time to go parasailing. We went back to our resort and he called down to the marina. Sure enough, he got a 1:30 time. We had a few hours to spare to so we went back to the MK. Mark had already checked to see what we could get for FP+ selections before we headed over. We did get Splash Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain and Buzz for times that would fit our plans for today.

We soon headed back for Mark' big adventure. It was a beautiful day. It was fun to watch him do it but there was no way I was going to give it a try.
