We weren’t offered 3 courses with our Mama Melrose package 😂 . It is strange how inconsistent the rules on the ddp is depending on the server. We weren’t very keen on Mama Melrose at all, especially the dessert trio. We did love having the reserved seating for Fantasmic though so I think we would just choose a different restaurant next time
Oh I was, I've never felt a feeling like it. I remember reading your report and knowing exactly how you felt! I don't think it matters if they're young or old, they're still our babies and we'll forever worry about them.

Really! That's such bad service really, they definitely need to keep it consistent. I know what you mean though we felt the same. I loved the dining package seating we were right in the middle it was perfect. Which other restaurants do the package do you know? Is it just Hollywood and Vine? Xx

Brown Derby is included too and that’s just 1 credit whereas H&V is two credits I believe. I haven’t looked into either as we don’t have a trip to plan but will look for our next time

Edited to say it’s the other way around, H&V is a 1 ts buffet, and Brown Derby is the 2 ts restaurant 😀

Oh Kelly, you must have been frantic! I've just said to Kate what happened she is full of sympathy as just as others have said we lost her too when she was about 5... It was the local garden centre at Christmas and they have loads of decorations and neither of us were paying attention, she started crying and we realised we didn't have her and had to retrace our steps...well she still remembers it and said that it's bad enough to be lost in your own country but in a foreign country it would be horrid. So, you must have felt dreadful even though it was only a few minutes and he was fine.

Anyway, the rest of the day sounds fun and you got to see of the shows at HS. We like the Indy show and you know how I feel about Fantasmic!

Ahh right, I thought there was another but couldn't think which thank you. Have you done either of them before Sue?

Poor Kate, I would hate to think Noah can remember it, although I'm not sure if it's his age or autism that didn't make him panic. I'd have been hysterical at that age. There's just no way to describe the feeling is there?

It was and yes you have the same views as me! Definitely my favourite show without a doubt xx

No we haven’t tried the others, but H&V is a character buffet with Mickey, Minnie, Donald etc so I would imagine your Noah would enjoy it 😀

We lost one of our older boys for a few minutes, which felt like hours, on holiday in North Wales years ago when he was around 5 or 6. We were on holiday with other family members and all went into a shop, I thought our son was in front with my mum but turned out he wasn’t! I felt sick. We rushed out to see him crying a little further along the seafront with a lady who was trying to find us, he hadn’t noticed us going in the shop and just walked on but stopped and was looking for us. I felt terrible but thankfully he was fine and safe, and it must have only been moments but it’s easy to think he’s with another family member and lose sight

Oooo I'm sure he would! See ANOTHER reason we need to go back

Bless him, but your right it is so easily done, especially when they're younger. I think it's the way the World is nowadays that has me worried more than anything else xx

It’s H&V that’s a buffet, I keep mixing them up 😂

It is scary to think of the dangers, but thankfully I still believe most people are good and help if they see a lost child xx

A long but fun filled day.

The cake looked really yummy. It was a lovely gesture to give the rest to the CM’s.

The Olaf pictures with the kids are really lovely.

Shame you didn’t enjoy Mama Melrose. The food looks really nice though.

Can understand your feeling when you couldn’t find Noah. At least everything worked out ok no harm done as such.

Thanks for sharing.

I suppose if you think of it that way there are way more good people than bad in the world I know I would help if I seen a lost child, guess I'm just too pessimistic

It was such a long day but we did manage to get what we wanted to get done so that helped.

I really do think it was just the combination of the rich food and being the end of the holiday, I would possibly try again but it wouldn't be next time.

It was awful I wouldn't wish the feeling on anyone.

Thanks for reading again Xx
