I left off with us heading to the movies. We went to see Jack the Giant Slayer and really enjoyed it. It was a bit macabre so I wanted a lighter ending to the evening. I had a plan to pick up a nice Disney movie at the resort when we got back. Well that took quite a bit longer than it should have because I took us the wrong way when we left the movies. I had us quite lost and finally thought of my Disney app which has a map of DTD. We had gone completely in the wrong direction and were actually quite close to the bus stops when we were at the theater. Oh well, we burned off a few calories from the cookies. When we finally made it to the bus stop there was a bus at the stop. What wonderful Disney magic! We made it back to the resort around 10:00 and stopped in the gift shop to rent a movie. We ended up getting Alice in Wonderland which isnt really a light movie but mom has never seen it so I thought it might be a good time.
I love this bridge in the lobby
Back to the room by 10:20 but we didnt make it through much of the movie before falling asleep. Ill have to get her to watch Alice in Wonderland another time.
Day 2:
Mom woke up at 6:30 and I drug myself out of bed at 7:00. We were taking Disney transportation to the port and we had to have the bags ready to be picked up by 8:00. Bell services called to make sure they were ready which I thought was a nice touch. We stayed in the room only a little longer, maybe until 8:30 and then we headed out. We wanted to do the nature walk before heading off to the cruise. Mom wanted a cup of coffee so we headed to Roaring Fork, of course I took pictures on the way.
Inside the villas
I had missed getting this earlier.
Now were in the main lodge. The bridge in the day time
I thought this was so cool
Walking down to the restaurant
This place might be my only negative about this resort. It is so small! And the layout is just plain bizarre. They have people order their hot food and then instead of going to pay for it and wait for it to be made, they have them carry it all the way through line. There's no way anyone's eggs are still hot by the time they get to eat them. I only got a cheese Danish and mom had a coffee.
I think shes getting ready to take a picture
Not sure of what though
Proof of our purchases
At that point we headed off to find the nature trail. There were no signs that we could find but we had seen it on a map earlier so we knew the general direction it should be. I ended up asking someone at the bike rental place and we were actually right next to it. Again, no sign saying 'Here is the Nature Trail' just a dingy looking pathway off to forest. I just wanted to know I was in the right place.
Up next, our Nature Trail Adventure.
