A great chilled first day! Glad to see your case found you eventually. Lost luggage is such a pain. Ours was our pushchair last time. And when it arrived it was broken. It took six months for them to finally replace it!

Yay! I'm so glad you got your case and didn't have any extra hassle

Ooh the Boathouse looks lovely. Better not tell G about the honey bread or he might try and take over the ADR booking :| although maybe we should go, so I could steal the cardboard amphicar from Alice. They look so cool! I love Isabella's drawing of hers

Lovely day, tfs
Oh no, poor Isabella

Boathouse was nice, definitely recommend it. Isabella's amphicar could fly (for some reason).

Lovely relaxed first day, I look forward to more
The whole 'delayed case' situation was pretty stressful and it was relief to finally get it. Not exactly the way we wanted to spend the first day, but at least we didn't have any park plans!

Your meal at The Boathouse looks really good. It was on our list for our next trip originally but got canned after I read a few bad reviews so it's nice to see a good one!

Love Isabella's dress - she's looking so grown up!
I forgot to say in the report that the dress was courtesy of Soph (MouseMess) (SPOILER ALERT)- who makes an appearance later in the report

Thanks for reading

I am desperate to try The Boathouse but just haven't been able to fit it in, the fish tacos sound great.

Thanks for the parking tip!
Definitely book it, and as for the parking tip... "You're Welcome"

I'm with Isabella - showers only when in the US!

Love a good Publix trip (we found the one near SSR - all good!)

Boathouse looks really nice - the amphicars always worry me when I see them out on the water, they seem to sit so low in the water at the back.

Thanks for sharing.
The villa was/is lovely. Microwaveable stuffed hash brown sounds good

I don't think I'd want to actually get in an amphicar, but loved Boathouse

Sounds like a nice relaxed day - how were your publix subs?

The Boathouse is always on my list but never quite makes it, good to read your good review and does seem too expensive compared to what I've read.

Nice bit of Disney
The Publix subs were ok, after all the build up it was a bit of an anticlimax to be honest!

As I've said to others in this reply, definitely give Boathouse a try

Glad to hear it

It seemed the safest way given AA's track record with it previously!

Oh no, what a terrible story! Was it American Airlines?

I was in that very Publix only last week, never thought I could be looking out the office window wishing I could instead be wandering down a supermarket isle, sad isn't it!

Did you get around to trying their Italian sandwich? Best one of all of their sandwiches IMO.

Cheers

I know! I doubt anybody wishes they were in Asda!

Didn't try the Italian sandwich, will bear that in mind for next time.

Lovely first day. My youngest also doesn't like Fruit Loops, I was actually secretly relieved

I love Isabella's dress! Glad you enjoyed your meal at The Boathouse.

Glad you got the case back. Good job you didn't have any specific plans for the day.

My daughter tried Fruit Loops and wasn't keen either...neither was I!

I'd love to try the Boathouse.

Looks like not liking Fruit Loops is not uncommon!
