Arrival day At Pop Century
Cast DH 40 something planner of meals and parks
DS 13 year old thrill seeker who likes his food, often!
Me Offwego, fond of shoes and shopping and Disney
We flew out fairly early on Sunday via southwest. No major issues, but the line for DME was very long. However we did move through it efficiently and our bus was stopping at Pop first.
We checked in, our room was ready which was a nice surprise. We did go and drop off some stuff from the flight etc but with DME we really didn’t do much carryon.
We headed to Downtown Disney for the first of the shopping & we didn’t buy much at this point. We did however stop at Wolfgang Puck (marketplace) for a lunch. We had the roast beef pocket, the quesadilla, and the mac and cheese. All was very good. The new seating was nice & we found the service to be quick and straightforward.
Tummies momentarily full we headed off to Hollywood Studios, we grabbed a fast pass for TSM (which was for much later that night) did a Star tours, looked around, did a tower of terror and then we could (after some shopping and looking around) grab another fastpass for RNR.
We headed back to the hotel for a break (our TSM fastpass and RNR were for quite late in the evening), grabbed a mug, unpacked as our stuff had arrived quite promptly and then headed back to Hollywood Studios as it was almost time for the fast passes and would be EMH after that. We did dinner at the commissary, enjoyed TSM and RNR very much and did another stint on the TOT.
We also enjoyed the lights and other decorations, while we didn’t stay for the entire EMH we did feel we did what we wanted to for a first day. It was fun in any event no matter that the crowd levels were a tad higher then we had anticpated.
