Great start. I can't believe your wedding already came and went. I remember when you got engaged. Sorry about the rocky start at the airport but at least you got an upgrade at POFQ. Love all the pictures. Can't wait for another update.

Can't wait to read about Le Cellier

Congrats on the river view upgrade! Your pictures of the resort are gorgeous. My family loves SE, too, and it is one we will do several times on each vacation.

We checked in at Le Cellier and only had about a 10 minute wait for our table. We were surprised at just how small the restaurant was. I really liked the atmosphere though, very intimate. No wonder it’s hard to get a ressie here.

We both decided to go with the pre fix meal. Seemed like the best deal with the dining plan, and by now we were both pretty hungry. Pat got the cheese soup, salt-crusted prime rib, and the maple crème brulee. I got the mixed field green salad, potato gnocchi, and crème brulee too.


I love the little breadstick holders they had, the wire basket thing in the lower right corner.

Pat raved about the cheese soup. I skipped out on trying some since there’s bacon in it and I’m a vegetarian. My salad was to die for. I know it seems strange to rave about a salad, but this was probably the best salad I’ve ever had. It had some sort of cheese – blue cheese maybe? – pears, and walnuts too. My potato gnocchi was very good, sort of salty but tasty.

Pat really liked his prime rib.

We both love crème brulee and the maple flavor was great. Our total for the meal was just under $85.00.

After dinner we walked through world showcase for a bit. We caught the tail end of Off Kilter. We wandered through the UK pavilion and happened to catch the British Invasion. We’d never seen them before and thought they were really good. After watching their show, I decided I needed a FAB and Pat agreed. We stopped off in France and each got a Grey Goose lemonade slush.

It was around 8:00pm by now so we decided to head over to MK for a bit. They had pm EMH starting at 11:00 but we wanted to go a bit early. Illuminations is one of those shows I can take or leave and Pat decided he didn’t want to wait around an hour for it. On the way out we decided we should stop by SE one more time.

We hopped on the monorail to the TTC, then decided to ride the ferry over to MK. Why not? We managed to catch the Electric Water Pageant on the ride over. I’d never taken the ferry to MK at night and it really was something to see the castle lit up in the distance.

Not the most focused picture but I was having a hard time to get it to focus being at night on a moving boat.

When we arrived, we hit the very end of Spectromagic. We walked through the stores to get over towards Adventureland without having to deal with the Main St crowds. We ran into the same end of Spectromagic on the way over. We took a ride on POTC and exited to Spectromagic again. By now it was cracking us up because this was at least the third time we’d seen the same part of Spectromagic. We decided to do BTMRR next. While waiting in line, Wishes had started. It was fun to watch the fireworks from in line, some of them seem like they’re right next to your head. And wow are some of them loud from over there! The line at BTMRR was long but it never really stopped moving so we were off through the wilderness after a relatively short wait. Neither of us have been on BTMRR at night and it’s a whole different ride. Much more fun IMHO. Afterwards we went on Splash Mountain, one of our favorites.

We were singing along and acting like fools having a blast. Next up was a quick Dole Whip stop. I admit, after 4 trips to the MK, I’ve never had a Dole Whip. I know, the horror. Pat had a plain Dole Whip, I went for the Dole Whip float – pineapple with orange. Yummy! Now I understand why everyone raves about them. It’s a pretty good use of snack credits too considering it would have cost us over $7 for our Dole Whip deliciousness. Pat was starting to get tired seeing as it was midnight by now and we’d been up since 5:30am, so we headed back to POFQ and called it a night.

A couple of pictures on the way out:



Next up: DHS and AK – let the TSMM competition begin!

[OhToodles!]

Great night at Epcot & MK! I just loved some of your night time shots - you definitely got them in focus eventually.

Great TR so far, reminds me of our honeymoon in 2007, no matter how many times we were there before, it was still a bit more magical! Can't wait to read more!
