We slept in and eventually made it down to the Pepper Market for breakfast. We wanted to take advantage of all the resort amenities so first up was renting a searaycer. We had it for an hour I believe. It was fun just to zoom around the lake and get a different view of the resort.
Ben loves to fish so we decided to do some cane pole fishing. This was so much fun. We each caught quite a few amount of fish. Ben caught a suckerfish and I accidentally caught a snapping turtle. That was pretty frightening. I had no clue how I was going to get him off the hook. Thankfully he got himself of the hook and jumped back in the water. Once the turtle got off the hook we felt like we were finished.
We returned our poles and got a Surrey to ride around the lake. Wow it was a lot more work than I expected. It was fun though and we got to see a lot of the resort.
We were pretty hot after that so we headed to the pool. A pool has never refreshed me so much in my life. It was pretty humid so it felt good to jump in the water and cool down. I really loved the main pool at Coronado Springs. It was fun.
I think I could have laid in this waterfall all day, it was so refreshing
Lunch was fast approaching so we went back to the room freshened up and headed to Downtown Disney. We didnt really know what we wanted to eat but we ended up choosing Wolfgang Puck Café. We didnt realize that it was going to use two of our Gold Plan points. Had we known that we would have never gone there. We actually were really disappointed. The food was not all that great and the service was horrible and for two meal credits it wasnt worth it.
Then we just shopped around for the next couple of hours. Our plan was to go to Pleasure Island that night so we would just stayed in Downtown Disney. We ate dinner that night at the House of Blues. There was some show going on and the line to get in went right past our table so it wasn't the best dining experience but I remember the food was good.
Pleasure Island was so much fun. I wish it were still around. We stopped at the Jazz club first. The music was fabulous we had one drink and then headed on out. We didnt want to spend the entire evening in one place. Then we headed over to the Adventurers Club. Oh that was so much fun. I dont quite understand why they ever got rid of it. After that we headed to the comedy club. The improv wasnt all that great but there were still some laughs. I wanted to actually go to another showing just to see if it would be better with a different crowd but Ben didnt want to wait in line again, so we went and got one of the drinks that comes in a sand bucket. It was delicious.
Ben had to go to the bathroom so he left me in this little dark corner at a table by the water. After he left I thought this really isnt the safest place to be by myself. It was pretty secluded and kinda back behind the buildings. But I couldnt move because he wouldnt have known where I was when he came back. It ended up being okay but I just realized that just because we were at Disney did not mean that we could forget about safety. We spent the rest of the night just hanging out on the street and then counting down till midnight before heading home. I really enjoyed Pleasure Island minus the creepy people on stilts. They terrified me and I kept feeling like they were chasing me. Ben just laughed every time I would see one and scream.
A picture of the creepy stilt people!!
We had scheduled a bass fishing trip and parasailing for the next morning so we headed home and went straight to bed.
