Both your MK morning and afternoon tea sound very frustrating. At least you were able to go with the flow a little bit!
You can certainly see that she maxed out the points. Good for her!
I think this may be my favourite comment ever.I honestly have no idea what I am doing on it and I still love it.
Nicely done.
Well, that's not cool. Sorry the crowds were like that for you.I love this park so much except the crowds, with pushy, and rude people gets to be a bit much.
That'll do it.We needed to escape to a less stressful world so we headed back in time on the CoP
It must be done.PM was next. This is another great stress reliever. I got the obligatory picture on here.
Uh, oh... Were you okay?We went to Lunching Pad and the CM gave me a free Diet Coke, that was nice. I must have looked like I could use the caffeine.
They were enjoying the tea except the daughter was a little cranky and short with her mom, huh, imagine that. I had no idea what the poor mom must be feeling!
We had a fair waitress, she was sweet, however, a bit pushy and wanting us to order right away.
Well, everything arrived all at once literally 2 minutes after the tea and then we never saw our waitress again. It was the famous Disney disappearance of the wait staff!
This post could be called, my love/hate relationship with MK, could our photos be any worse, pinky out for tea, could we be any closer to these guests? where did our server go? Is she ever coming back?
Andi was a galactic hero, yay, again, happy for her.
This is where my love/hate feelings came out. I love this park so much except the crowds, with pushy, and rude people gets to be a bit much.

Sounds like you're off to a great startThis post could be called, my love/hate relationship with MK, could our photos be any worse, pinky out for tea, could we be any closer to these guests? where did our server go? Is she ever coming back?
Wow, those are not good. Poor Rapunzel looks like she should be at the wax museum and not Disney World
It really is. Every time we get frustrated with the crowds to a little CoP or Country Bears can just change our whole mood.We needed to escape to a less stressful world so we headed back in time on the CoP. What a nice decompressor this ride is, even when we got stuck in the 40’s for awhile.
Good thing you never experience anything like thisThey were enjoying the tea except the daughter was a little cranky and short with her mom, huh, imagine that. I had no idea what the poor mom must be feeling!
Glad you all were able to enjoy the tea despite the seating and server forces working against you.We really enjoyed our afternoon high tea. We made sure to have pinky out when drinking the tea. The service was initially very rushed and then basically non existent so definite negative for me.
Hi Caroline.Hello Everyone
If only she would share her secrets with her mom...We did Buzz twice, the second time Andi was a galactic hero, yay, again, happy for her.
Same!!!This ride makes me happy. I honestly have no idea what I am doing on it and I still love it.
CoP is always wonderful for escaping a crazy-crowded MKWe needed to escape to a less stressful world so we headed back in time on the CoP.
Nope, you have no idea what that feels like, do you?They were enjoying the tea except the daughter was a little cranky and short with her mom, huh, imagine that. I had no idea what the poor mom must be feeling!
I have today off and I am planning to lounge around today.
We use to come here with virtually no crowds and ride Dinosaur over and over! I think our record was 9x in a row and Andi’s Everest record was 11x in a row, those days are gone now!
My back probably couldn’t handle Dinosaur that much now
It is the 4500# Rhino’s choice, of course!
It was time for our flight and it was awesome as always, minus the um guy.
Do you think we ordered the bread service?
This change literally saved me $800.00 so I had to do it.
I capped the night with going down to watch HEA in front of the Gasparilla Grill. This was so awesome. Perfect viewing of the fireworks and the music is piped in. You can see the castle, however, this is not the place to watch the castle projections. I would recommend this spot 1000x if you are a veteran of HEA. There is absolutely no pushing, shoving, or tall people in front of you, and I simply walked a few feet from our building and then back up to the room in a few minutes at the end! This was perfect. Andi didn‘t join me, she is still not a huge fan of HEA, the girl holds a grudge.
Andi was able to substitute the curry chicken salad with another vegetarian choice. Well, everything arrived all at once literally 2 minutes after the tea and then we never saw our waitress again. It was the famous Disney disappearance of the wait staff!

If only she would share her secrets with her mom...
Same!!!
We did have a pretty good morning despite the crowded park. It got really busy fast.It's so frustrating when the attraction lines get out of control. Jungle Cruise in particular seems much busier with FP+ than I ever remember it being with FP-. I'm glad you still enjoyed multiple attractions even with the craziness!
I'm glad you enjoyed your tea despite your sub-par waitress. It's definitely unusual to get everything at once - usually they bring the sandwiches and scones first and wait a bit offer you dessert. At least you just had an absent server - my 2015 visit there involved getting hit on by our waitress which was all sorts of uncomfortable. I felt like a train wreck that day (and had even visited urgent care that morning with a sinus infection) so I'm sure I looked like a prize. Also, bless her attempt, but she was aiming her affections at the wrong person as I would never be interested. It was the strangest interaction with a server that I've ever had.
That’s what I figured. We will miss Splash, such a fun ride. We can take or leave TT, not a favorite.Both are down for refurb. I was pretty bummed about both of these closings...We were able to grab FoP, SDD and 7DMT too. YAY!!!
The morning got so crowded and busy very fast. Within in one hour of 9am it was so packed.Both your MK morning and afternoon tea sound very frustrating. At least you were able to go with the flow a little bit!
Yes, she was pleased with herself! I remember the first time she did it, she was so proud and got a Galactic Hero button!You can certainly see that she maxed out the points. Good for her!
Haha! It is so true, I love the lights and aliens, however not a clue what I am doing!I think this may be my favourite comment ever.
It was very crowded early on so it makes it hard to do much!Well, that's not cool. Sorry the crowds were like that for you.
I was just fine, he must of thought I could use a drink. It was very nice.Uh, oh... Were you okay?
I should have said something, we were so close to the other table and I didn’t feel like making a scene, I should have nicely said slow down lady.Tea is supposed to be a relaxing, calming experience.
Tell her to go away and come back in xx minutes (whatever time you think appropriate.)
And when she brings everything out... tell her to take it all back.
This is really inexcusably poor service.
This rings true, I didn’t leave much.Tip: Negative $10.
Thanks, it definitely what I was doing or thinking,Haha I love these little alternate titles!
She has Buzz down to a science nowYay! Good for Andi!
I know, it such an amazing place with so many feel goods however lately it is so darn crowdedsometimes feel like this about MK, too. It seems more of an issue here than in other parks for me.
It really is, we love this ride so much!PM is so great for this!
The tea was lovely minus the subpar serviceOh no! Service sounded terrible. But your tea looked nice!
I would do again on an Epic trip. It really is enjoyable and the food and tea are yummy!I really want to do the Tea, every review I see is so positive (except for your service lol). Steve is on the fence about it so I may have to wait for the next EPIC Girls' Trip............
This really is, we would have been there in 5 minutes and already been through security!How frustrating for the monorail to not be running for EMH!
I’m not a huge tea lover, except the flavored teas are really good! I think you should try it.I love living through other people's reviews of the GF tea because I don't drink tea so I'll probably never do it but it looks so lovely! Ugh that server doesn't sound great though!
Do I hear sarcasmSounds like you're off to a great start
These pictures were so bad! Rapunzel did look wax likeWow, those are not good. Poor Rapunzel looks like she should be at the wax museum and not Disney World
So true, I was surprised how busy MK was this August!It really is. Every time we get frustrated with the crowds to a little CoP or Country Bears can just change our whole mood.
Crabby daughter taking it out on mom, never!Good thing you never experience anything like this
It was nice but could have been much better!Glad you all were able to enjoy the tea despite the seating and server forces working against you.
Hi Doc! Thanks for continuing to read along. The Dis gives me grief sometimes.Hi Caroline.
As has happened before, the DIS never notified me there was an update, so I'm playing catch up again, so I won't be trying to multi quote. Great pictures and fun dismeets!
It was poor service at the beginning and the end.Your afternoon tea looks lovely but it's a shame you felt rushed to order.
Love how PM and COP can change a person's mood and make the world seem a much more chilled place
Right! She claims she has but she has only given me tiny little hints, not the important onesIf only she would share her secrets with her mom..
Yes it sure is. We never tire of it!CoP is always wonderful for escaping a crazy-crowded MK
So true, it really was lovely despite the poor service!Nope, you have no idea what that feels like, do you?
The tea looks and sounds delicious - except for the magically disappearing server of course They should include on the menu: Caution: servers will disappear automagically like they have on the doors at Philharmagic
Hey Doc, I will take you up on it! Maybe we can meet up again in January. Several of the Epic crew will be there also!Next time we meet up (hoping it's sooner rather than later), I'd be happy to show either or both of you. Showed my wife last week and she got her first GH ever! She was pleased as punch and I was proud of her because she actually got it before I did.
Life is so busy, read when you can!Trying my best to get all caught up around here after travel and life stuff.
It really is, when I was younger I would be busy busy on my days off, now I have learned to slow down some and enjoy the day. Housework never goes away.The best way to spend a day off! I don't think I've gotten off my couch for 6 hours.
Yes, sadly those days are gone, we use to be able to ride some attractions over and over with low crowds100% gone. Sad.
I have a newfound love for Dinosaur, but like you, I can do it once then my neck starts to protest.
Yes indeed! I would recommend the tour, so enjoyable4500# rhinso get to call the shots! Sounded like such a wonderful tour!
This was the first time I got a Cinderella carriage towel!That is absolutely adorble!
Yes, I guess one layover is not to bad with those prices. Spring break prices are so much higher, ugh!That's a deal you can't refuse. Sacrifices at times do have to be made.
It really is such a perk when staying at GFYou're right! It's a delighful place to watch HEA and that's just what we did during our stay there. A very relaxing way to do it.
It was nothing like our service in May. The food was fine and the tea was enjoyable. The poor service did lessen the experience.Completely and totallly inexcusable. I'd have not only not tipped but probaby said something to the manager. That is definitely one experience that is supposed to be slowly paced and relaxing, not rushed and then ignored.
I am a tea lover, but not a fru fru (sp?) type of person, so not sure I'd enjoy this except maybe if I did it with one of my daughters or DW.I’m not a huge tea lover, except the flavored teas are really good! I think you should try it.
No, that would never happen.Crabby daughter taking it out on mom, never!
Too bad on service...I would have talked to the manager about it. Given the price, it's expected to have above average service, not subpar.It was poor service at the beginning and the end.
PM and CoP are so Disney and away to escape the big crowds.
andHey Doc, I will take you up on it! Maybe we can meet up again in January. Several of the Epic crew will be there also!
