Scrappy & Mrhub's MVMCP trip 2012

Here a closeup from ToT!

Continuing..........Day 1

After lunch, room still wasn't ready, so we hopped on the monorail and headed to The Grand Floridian to check out the Christmas Decorations.

Well on the way around the loop, of course the monorail stopped at the Poly, and scrappy didn't want to see the decorations there yet becuase we would be checking in there tomorrow , so we skipped that and got off at the next stop, the Grand Floridian!

The work they do on that Ginger Bread house is simply amazing! I say that as I am munching on the last bit of the shingle that I bought when we were there. It is so delicious! Nothing like the mass produced things you see for sale in stores. I would love to have one more, but alass , I just took my last bite until until we again visit WDW during the Christmas season. If anyone else is down there and you don't get one of those gingerbread shingles, you don't know what your missing! (but you could send one to me!)

Okay, we received a text saying our room was ready so we headed back to our room to settle in and get our first feel o the Contemporary!

Well we were on the 8th floor, YES! I wanted high up for the view. Didn't disapoint me. The room had a much warmer feel to it then we expected.

And then of course the view!

Thanks PG!

The view from our room was great!

That photo is zoomed in some.

Here is the actual view, but it was good. I like the high views, scrappy is not keen on the hieghts, but she did very well. Cinema Too, we actually liked the Contemporary very much and both of us said we would stay there again, but only if the Poly is not available or maybe for another split stay. Alot of people think the parking lot disrupts the view, but I don't think it did, and I was one that thought it would. You just have to be on one of the upper floors. For cameras and web cams it's great too!

After unpacking and settling in, we headed over to the MK. We had ADR's at "Be Our Guest" for 7:20, so we figured we would stay at the MK for the night and check out the Fantasy Land Expansion.
