Girls Only Birthday Trip - Arrival Day
Who - Me - 37 Disney nut and
Friend Michele - 36 (almost 37) Disney nut
Where - Port Orleans Riverside
When - May 2 - 6
Just got back yesterday and wanted to get some trip reports done before I forget the details.
Arrived into MCO from BOS a little bit before noon. Michele picked me up and we headed to the resort.
Checked in to POR, asked for and received a close room the main area (I have RA) and the room (Oak Manor 9054) was ready. Hauled all of our stuff in and walked around a bit. What a beautiful resort!! Would not hesitate to stay there again at all. Very quiet and peaceful. Grabbed some lunch at the food court (Muffaletta ) and headed to Animal Kingdom.
Got to AK a little bit before 3 and headed straight to EE. Absolutely love this ride!! What a thrill. There was about an hour until the Nemo Show, so we walked over to Dino Land and did Dinosaur and Primeval Whirl. Got to Nemo as the line was still going in. Got a great seat in the back by the exit and really enjoyed the show. Headed over to the safari and got some great photos as the animals were starting to get active again. Never waited in line more than 20 minutes for anything. A great day at AK. Missed FOTLK and ITTBAB, but we got a lot done.
Took the bus over AK and dinner at BOMA. My favorite restaurant did not disappoint. It was rib night and I indulged. The prime rib was its usual excellent. Had 2 wonderful soups - Coconut Chicken Curry Stew and a Seafood Stew with couscous. WOW. Loved the potato salad and the chicken salad with the cilantro dressing. And of course finished the evening with some zebra domes.
We then headed to DTD to do some shopping. Hit a couple of the stores, but the lines were long (especially the personalization desk at the Christmas store), so we packed it in for the night took the boat back to POR.
Up next....AM EMH at MK and dinner at Jiko.

BRODIE: Hey, now, be fair. EVERYONE wants Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.
