EPCOT
This was where things started to get a little hairy.. it was about 2:00, the kids tell me that they are done and ready to go back
Umm, what? We didn’t even get to WS yet? So I tell them to go. My plan was to stay and tour around myself while grabbing a snack. Hubby decides to stay with me. Great! We grab our first drink, that was suppose to be a slushy but I do not think the machine was working because it was just liquid. It tasted good though!
We had just finished our drink when my phone starts ringing. My youngest was calling because her and her sister got into a spat. The skyliner was down because a storm was coming in and they weren’t sure where to go or what to do. *sigh* I guess exploring will have to wait for next time.
We walked through the International Gateway to meet them at the exit gift shop. My plan was to catch the bus at the Y&B club which was what I have heard from other’s that they have done. I asked the CM at the skyliner about the bus at Y&B, her response was that “eventually” a bus was would come but our best bet would be to go to the front of the park and catch one there. So we went back through security and hoofed it to the front of the park.
I must admit that by this point, I was pretty cranky. We had talked for months about wandering around WS. We had the booth menus on the fridge and read through them highlighting what we wanted to try at each booth. They all had made drinking around the world t-shirts and I even brought the sharpie to mark them off. I was frustrated.
We went back to the hotel as the storm rolled in to pack up. We were getting picked up at 3 am for the airport home.
Hubby noticed that I was upset, this was when we agreed to come back in 2024. No kids! Our daughter is getting married next year so it just is not in the budget but I will hold him to it for 2024. I adore my children but there were a few times throughout the week that they just seemed a bit ungrateful. Anyhoo…I am going to get back to the report! (Now that I got that off my chest)
We decided to hit the hotel food court for our last night and I decided to mobile order. This was a mistake. I placed my order and we walked over. I hit the “here now” button for them to start making the food. We waited…and waited…and waited.
I finally went over to the window just to make sure there wasn’t any type of glitch. That had happened to me before where they did not get my order. As I approached, I knew that they did but were just so very backed up. There were a lot of people standing around waiting. An hour and twenty minutes later, my app pinged that my food was ready.
Above is the only photo that I took, I was hungry! Lol! There was a lot of grumbling among the patrons but everyone was very nice to the CM’s. I think we all felt really bad for them. They were trying to work so fast, I think it was just a lot of orders at one time.
After that, we shopped the resort gift shop, I got another pair of ears and we hit the hay.
Our pick up and flight home were uneventful. We made it and the pups were so very happy to see us!
I will have some final thoughts in my last post.
