Are people always like this? - A Solo Adventure Spring Break 2018 (Completed 5/20/18)

I think I've seen people saying that the redhead AA is from Great Movie Ride.

Supposedly they recycled Jane from the Tarzan section. Better range of motions vs the old redhead.

Following along! We were in Disney the same time frame. I'm jealous of your 3 rides on FOP. We couldn't get a fp at all for our trip. I guess it gives us a reason to go back.

Cool! That sucks you couldn’t get a FP. Worth it to rope drop or wait to the very end of the night if you can.

If you're thinking about the situation, you don't have to worry...you'll never be "that" family. The people that behave like that are never the ones that are thinking about their actions and the resulting impact on others...

Yep...

Sounds like a great morning at MK!

Auctioning chickens ... interesting. I'm reserving judgement for when I actually see the new scene, but ... that doesn't seem quite as pirate-y to me.

Also, I don't know if this has been mentioned here, but ... I think I've seen people saying that the redhead AA is from Great Movie Ride.

It was!

It’s different.

Many are saying the face is reused from Jane in TGMR.

The entire Jane wasn’t reused. If any it was her face. The body is all new.

Sweet MK morning!!
And I have to echo one of the other posters, that it is certainly bizarre to not have a race recap somewhere in here. LOL!

My next TR will have a race recap or 3...

I eat wayyyyyy tooooo much

So after my morning in MK I headed on the monorail to the Contemporary. I stopped in the shop to get a Contemporary pin because I never picked one up in January while staying at Bay Lake Tower. They don't have a BLT pin unfortunately. I get a pin for every resort I stay at. I then headed down to the bus stop to head onto Disney Springs for my lunch ADR at Homecomin'. This is a new favorite of mine.

I walked around Disney Springs a bit to check out some of the construction since thats always of interest to me.

First a look at Wolfgang Puck Bar and Grill...



I also stopped in Tommy Bahama over there but no deals...

Jaleo





NBA Experience



Wine Bar George





I know many are mixed on Disney Springs but I am a big fan of the remodel. It has so much to offer especially for dining. I finally made my way to Homecomin'. I was seated on the outdoor patio.



Last time I got the fried chicken. This time I went for something else but similar.

Started off with a nice refreshing Sweet tea!





Fried Chicken Sandwich!



This was awesome!!! I love the homemade chips they pair with it as well. I decided to spring for dessert...

I eat wayyyyyy tooooo much

I got the chocolate cake! WOW was this good but wow did it fill me up quick. I only finished about half of it.



I was stuffed! I couldn't eat anything else or I would explode but it was all fantastic.

I headed over to World of Disney after but that store is a mess since its under construction. I spent a total of maybe 2 minutes in there.

I then headed to the bus stop to take something to the Epcot resort area. Beach Club was the first to come. Little did I know they had a great Easter display set up!

This display was incredible! Everything made out of chocolate. I have seen the Christmas displays before but never the Easter ones so it was really cool to see.

I then headed off to DHS via the walking path. I could have took the boat but I needed to walk off that big meal.

Up Next: Rain, Star Wars, Towers, and Coasters!

OMG!!! I just sat at that corner table, outside on the patio at Homecomin' a few weeks ago! You should check out my PTR!!!!!! Also stopped into Tommy Bahama and bought my hubby a shirt.

 

[Capang]

Homecomin' looks delicious! Love the decorations.

 

[BigRed98]

I love Disney Springs! I know many say it's just a big outdoor shopping mall but to me it's much more. The dining options are fantastic and they have shops for everyone. Homecomin' is also a new favorite of mine and I have an ADR there coming up in May and after seeing your iced sweet tea, I may have to get one now. Also, the Easter egg displays are so awesome and if you look closely there's so many hidden mickeys on them.

I agree about Disney Springs. I love me some Sweet Tea! Yes I definitely noticed some of the hidden mickeys.

That Baymax was amazing.

Do you know when Jaleo is supposed to open? Homecoming looks really good. We really like the Disney Springs remodel too. Those Easter eggs were awesome.

I’d guess likely early 2019 for Jaleo at this rate. Nothing has been said.

Thank you. I was thinking 2019 based on the looks of the building.

Im really excited to try Homecomin next week, what would you recommend?

Love Disney Springs! I'm embarrassed how many times I've been turned around there, especially at night, but nevertheless, I really enjoy going. I also love being there on a weekend night with all of the live entertainment too.

Fried Chicken Sandwich!

Yum!

I headed over to World of Disney after but that store is a mess since its under construction.

What exactly are they doing here? Hopefully it will be done before January?

Anything chicken! That’s their specialty.

They are remodeling the interior of the store.

Started off with a nice refreshing Sweet tea!

It's always exciting when a Disney restaurant serves sweet tea! (I haven't been recently, but I recall there's only a few that had it. Garden Grill and 50's Prime Time...and getting unsweet tea and adding sugar packets is just not the same!)

Those Easter eggs looked incredible. The Monsters Inc one was probably my favorite, but they all were great. I bet it was a very cool surprise to find when you got to the Beach Club.
