Thank you, good to know that early November might be a bit more Chris friendly weather wise. He would be happy with mid-20's I think.
Christmas party AND Food & Wine sounds like a great trip, I will have to read your report I have been saving your DLP trip to read once I finished this, so now I can start in my Dibb reading list. Thanks for sticking with me, for reading and commenting!

Hi Joosebug
I am glad that you liked the report and binge read it I think The Dibb ought to get commission from Disney as it is impossible to be on here and not want to go back, I think Thank you so much for reading along!

Ah, but the bonus of staying IN the Swolphin is that you don't have to see the Swolphin, hahaha.
I completely agree that the exterior is an eyesore, such a blight on the rest of the area, but the interior was really nice. Not themed but it felt high end and you get many of the Disney perks at a much lower price. Apparently the restaurants there are good too. Tom & Sarah from Disney Tourist Blog ate at the Blue Zoo restaurant there and reviewed it -Disney Tourist Blog Now I feel responsible, I hope you like House of Blues as much as we did. As it isn't a Disney restaurant you could probably make the reservation with them directly. Not sure how that works with the DDP though. We had a fab waiter (Tyler) and a good table that was in the raised part of the room, the food was all hot, fresh and tasted like it was good quality. It's a shame you don't like cornbread as the starter that I had with shrimp and cornbread was delish. See, $99 for Universal I would not mind in the slightest, but their tickets are creeping up to Disney Prices, and Disney have 4 parks and 2 waterparks. Universal has 2 parks and a waterpark (I don't care what they say, Volcano Bay is a waterpark). It really is not good value for what is a nice extra to our trip, rather than a 'must do'. It may be added to our 2019 trip though as I want to get more use out of my wizard's wand Oooh, a Halloween party AND a Christmas party would be fun, and a good use for the 'Ohana refund gift voucher I received. I am thinking on using it for a dessert party though after reading your report. Prime firework viewing and sweet treats sounds like a winner to me. You aren't a moaning Minnie at all I loved your report and liked how honest you were when things were disappointing. Looking forward to reading your next report to see where gets a return visit and where you go that is new. Thanks again for reading and commenting, I do really appreciate it

Breweries? Sports? He does know what visiting Orlando is for doesn't he?
One of my favourite ways to spend 10 minutes (ok a bit longer than 10 minutes and yes I know this just a waste of time really when you're thousands of miles away!) is to look at the wait times on the Disney app. In my head it's 'research' so I know what to book FP for, but that's just part of my deluding myself as I already know what FP I want! I can't resist the trip report now, I love writing them...so yes! Ha ha they are ugly buildings, but I've never been inside. As I plan on visiting the crazy golf course there this summer i might try and convince everyone to pop in so we can see what the interior is like.
