Nov17-Leaving NY
Okay so anxiously awating the wake up at 4am:alarm: to shower pack the car, I was raring to go! I then get the girls up and moving and we're on the road by 5:15. Very good timing on our part. Grammie drives first and the girls and I fall back asleep. Our plan is to get to Pooler GA and stop for the night. We have an uneventful drive from New York State(I88 to I81to I64 then pick up I95 around Richmond VA) We stop for lunch at South of the Border so the girls can at least say they've been there done that. It was like a ghost town there. We end up stopping just north of Pooler about 20 min and stay over night in Rocky Mount NC. We are on the road by 7:30am the next morning and successfully drive to WDW!!
Nov 18-Arrival/Mini Golf/Dinner at 1900PF
It was around 12:30 that we were checking in at POP Century! I had done the on line check in prior to leaving. There were no lines anywhere at the front desks. It took tops 10 minutes and off we went. So we find out that we will be staying in the 50's building (Tramp & Bowling pins) in room 3116. I asked for a ground floor and they had no problem giving us one. We were right around the corner from the bowling pin pool and the laundry facility. We were very pleased where we were located and walking distance was aprox 3 minutes from our door to Everything POP. So we settled into our room, had a little lunch at the food court and hopped on a bus to play mini golf at WinterSummerLand, our 1st time at this in WDW. We had a fun time doing that and we really liked the theming of the course. We had dinner ressies for 6:40 at 1900PF at the Grand Floridian. So we got onto a Magic Kingdom bus and proceded to the monorail to get to the resort. This was a first for us all to eat here at 1900 and we were quite pleased. The buffet was very good and plenty of selections were offered. We saw here, Anastasia, Drizella, Step-Mother, Cinderella and Prince Charming. Character interaction was good and we took nice pictures here. Overall, I rate this dining expierence, a 9. After dinner we go back to Pop, knowing we have an early wake up call..........5:30am:alarm: !!
Next up is MK/ DD2's 7th B-day/MSB/Plaza Restaraunt/Cindy's Table!
