I remember my family eating there a LONG long time ago and were terribly disappointe with the food. And this was over 20 years ago. Glad to hear that nothing has changed. Seems like the only appeal is getting the princesses in one place at one time, despite the crazy price. Glad my sister had a boy instead of a girl so we can skip this overpriced trap. :thumbs:

after that we went back and checked on papaw
he was a lil better.. but everyone laid down and took lil naps.
we got up and went to go to magic kingdom for dinner and see the MSEP and fireworks.
we waited forever for the bus.. it never came so when the 2nd epcot bus went by we got on it to go there and hit the monorail.
well when we got there the monorail was closed and they crammed us on a bus that took us to the Transportation station then we took the ferry over to the MK.. well i guess they wasnt planning on all these people! an only had a few gates open and it took brent and his dad and bug like 20 mins to get thru the gate and by then the parade was half way over :(
we got in.. watched the rest of the parade then went straight back to the bus station to catch the bus. we went back to the resort and had dinner and then went and got our swim gear and did a lil swimming then called it a night.

It's one of those places I'd never be tempted by.. I dunno I guess I prefere the eh "fluffy characters" rather than the human ones if ya know what I mean.
Great trip update btw.. the thoughts of 50's prime scares me a little cos I heard they make people sit in the corner if they're not behaving at dinner! morto much like :lol: I like the red mickey cup yee have though.
Also bummer bout the lack of buses to Magic Kingdom.
