Storybook Dining

Last night Margaret and I joined various of her friends to enjoy “Storybook Dining” at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge; it’s a quite expensive fixed price dining experience with a limited number of menu choices – although we both found acceptable options (I didn’t photo my entree, it wasn’t that great!) …

The reason for dining here (and paying the almost $70 each) is for the Disney characters – during the meal, Snow White and her companions Grumpy and Dopey visit the tables … and there’s also a chance to attend The Queen!

Overall it was a fun night but like everything Disney, it’s expensive!

Magic Kingdom Birthday Fun

Margaret often used to go to the Crystal Palace at Magic Kingdom to celebrate her birthday, meeting Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore and Piglet – and a few days late due to the hurricane, we headed there today with a number of Margarets friends …

We also visited the updated Country Bear Jamboree – twice because it’s a great and fun update with the bears singing well known Disney songs now (like Try Everything) …

Epcot before Milton

It’s always a bit quieter at DisneyWorld before a hurricane comes – some tourists cancel their plans, and some locals are busy prepping … we often head down for a quieter day in the parks, and today we went to Epcot. We got to ride Soarin’ and Ratatouille (when it wasn’t broken) and Spaceship Earth, and met a couple Anna and Elsa; we couldn’t do Nemo because it was broken …

We also had lunch for the first time at Spaceship 220; it’s expensive but we had great service and the theming is interesting …
