| Re: The Brits at the Beach Club RE-VISITED! THREAD 2 OF 2 Saturday 21 December – part five: the second surprise of the day from my parents! We were quickly seated and our server, whose name I don’t remember, took our drinks order and then we were free to tuck into the buffet. ![]() The food was exceptionally good, with a fantastic range and they had an excellent choice for vegetarians. One of my favourites was the five cheese lasagne, completely meat free. It was a lovely setting, with some great theming (the organ in particular was a lovely touch) but while I could see Tigger, Piglet and Pooh circulating around the tables, I began to worry about where Eeyore was. I hadn’t seen him at all! I kept checking with our server and he kept telling me he’d be over shortly and that he was outside, greeting people. But as time wore on, I worried more and more that I wouldn’t see my favourite character again on my birthday. In the meantime, all the other characters headed over to see us: ![]() ![]() ![]() Yet still I didn’t see my donkey anyway and I was getting more and more concerned about that fact. Imagine my surprise then when I got a rendition of Happy Birthday, not from Tigger, who’d celebrated with everyone else so far during the meal, but from Eeyore, who came out specially to see me! He was superb, miming along to the song and making some wonderful memories for our videotape! I have never had such individual attention from a character before and it was a perfect birthday celebration. Eeyore then presented me with an Eeyore beanie in a little sledge, more chocolates and two more cards, one signed by Eeyore, Pooh, Piglet and Tigger and the other simply said the meal was being paid for by my parents. Wow! Thank you so much mum and dad! Talk about magical! Disney is the place to be for a special birthday, they really do make dreams come true! We got some wonderful photos as well as the video footage: ![]() ![]() It was a superb night and a great end to a wonderful day. 1900 Park Fare Starter 9 10 Main course 9.5 10 Dessert 8.5 N/A Atmosphere 10 10 Service 9.5 9 Value for money N/A N/A Average: 9.50 By the way, there’s no score for value for money, as Mark and I felt we couldn’t judge the meal on that, as we didn’t actually pay for it and we genuinely don’t know how much the meal cost, as we never even saw the check! I don’t think we could have gone for a better evening meal for my 30th birthday, just about everything about it was perfect. Beforehand, I have to confess I was worried about going to 1900 Park Fare, as we’d never been there before and I wanted something special, but thanks to my parents, I certainly got that! Even more magical, apparently the reason they wanted to pay for our meal was because the Beach Club wouldn’t let them pay for everything which was left in our room. It was all complimentary, no matter how many times my dad offered to pay. It’s not often you can say that about Disney! Next: an Illuminating end to my birthday celebrations! |
