Our First Evening in Disney Springs...
Once we got to POFQ and got settled, we freshened up a bit, changed our clothes and walked down the stairs to the boat docks (this was very convenient). We had a river view room and it was so peaceful. We have stayed at POFQ 7 times and this was by far my favorite room location.
It was a beautiful evening, high 60's , low humidity...We decided the first order of business was getting some food because I was HANGRY!!! I was also in need of a cocktail. So what better place to satisfy both my needs but Wine Bar George, of course. Joe thought this was a great idea as well.
We were seated upstairs and quickly ordered drinks and food. I started with a strawberry cider and Joe had an Old Fashion, maybe...I didn't get pics of the drinks so I'm not entirely sure what Joe ordered...I've had the cider beer before and it went down smooth. We shared a few apps: mac and cheese bites (if you've never had these you are definitely missing out), the meatballs and the marinated olives. All 3 were good and again I failed at taking food pics. As you can see, I remembered after we had started shoving our faces full of the deliciousness in front of us...LOL!
We settled the tab and did a bit of shopping and then stopped by Amorettes for some dessert. Joe left the ordering up to me so I picked the creme brulee. YUM! We both really liked this!!!
It was getting late and we were tired. We found a boat heading back to POFQ already at the dock and it was a quick ride back to the resort (so much better than those dang buses)...We showered and crawled into bed ready for our first night's sleep in Disney. Yay!!!
What next??? We get up early because we had an "experience" to do in Epcot...
