November 15 – Resort day for Suzanne, Mom and I. Deb did some rides
on her own.
The evening before we went to guest services at Pop Century and got Deb some fast passes for the thrill rides at Magic Kingdom. There are no single rider lines in this park, unlike the others so fast passes can be very useful.
Mom had only three more days of park tickets and we still had a six days left at Disney. Plus it was time for a rest. Deb on the other hand had one day left to use up and with Monday being a Universal Day she ended up going to the parks on her own Sunday.
Deb got to Magic Kingdom early so she didn't need the passes after all. She rode the coasters. After that she went over to Animal Kingdom to ride Expedition Everest and the safari. Unfortunately it was later in the day and very few animals were seen. They tend to sleep during the heat of the day.
Back at Pop Century, the rest of us got our laundry done. Then we went over to Disney Springs to make reservations for dinner. Another first for Deb...Rain Forest Cafe. We managed to get reservations for 7pm. After that we took the boat to Port Orleans Riverside to check out the resort we would be transferring to on the 17th.
By the time we got back to the room Deb was there and we headed to Disney Springs for supper at Rain Forest Cafe. This is not a quiet restaurant. The animated animals are loud as is the jungle thunder storm. I dragged Deb to the restrooms so she could see how they are decorated. Who would have thought that a restroom could be an “experience”? We didn't poke around Disney Springs as much as I wished. The walkways are way too dark for those with limited night vision. I was really hopping we would be able to walk all over Disney Springs during the day and check out some of the new shops and restaurants. But that didn't happen. Maybe next time. Of course we did find our way over to Ghiradelli's for the free sample of chocolate. We have our priorities. Several of us picked up chocolate to eat back at the room. Not naming any names.....but I didn't see any sugar free ones on sale....just saying.....
