Review of Katsura Grill - Japan

Whoever is in charge of this restaurant needs to check the definition of "teriyaki" - it means glaze grilled. It does not mean boiled chicken and stewed beef slathered with sweet sauce. However, the plain rice was delicious, and the edamame was properly prepared. The setting is lovely and relaxing.

Pros:

Lovely setting, some food is good

Cons:

Horrible teriyaki

This is the first time I have been disappointed with a meal at Sunshine Seasons. I ordered a sweet and sour shrimp stir-fry at the Asian counter, and it was horrible, with too sour a sauce and uncooked vegetables. I became sick to my stomach later in the day.

Pros:

Convenience

Cons:

Made me ill

Review of Boulder Ridge Villas at Disney's Wilderness Lodge (Disney Vacation Club)

just retured from 5 nights at Boulder Ridge Villas. Our 4th floor dedicated 2 BR villa had views of the lake and pool. Enjoyed sitting out on the balony in the morning looking at birds, and at night watching the Water Pageant. Walks to the pools, main lodge and restaurants were shorter than i'd expected. staff very kind and helpful. the layout of the villa is a ery thoughtful one if you're there with two families.

Pros:

location, decor, amenities

Cons:

my only complaint is that i think the living room furniture could include more seating and more comfortable seating.

Review of Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party (Magic Kingdom)

Here’s a rundown of our night at the 1st Xmas party on Nov 8.

It was a drizzling in the evening and then the rain kept picking up throughout the night. Luckily, we brought rain jackets!

We arrived at the party at about 7pm. (Today, we did mk in the morning, ak in the afternoon, rested at our room in the contemporary for a while and then walked over to the party).

We walked up the back street behind Main Street where they handed out cookies, had lots of photo ops and had Xmas music playing - very festive!

We picked up some cookies at a few places on our way over to splash mountain. We walked right on twice in a row and then went on btm and just waited about 5 mins to ride.

After that, it was about 7:45 so we decided to watch the 1st parade. We walked up to a great front row spot in frontier land - right across from town hall. I videoed and took lots of pics. Fantastic parade as usual! Loved it!

Then, we picked up some more treats as we walked over to Tomorrowland for the speedway, Space and Monsters Xmas overlays. The speedway was festive but the rain was not that much fun - although it probably helped to keep the wait time down - only about a 5 min wait. We sat in a puddle and had a driving rain in our faces. Lol. We still had fun.

Space mt was about a 20-30 min wait but we were just happy to be out of the rain for a bit. We heard that the ride was having tech difficulties but it was up and running again. Super fun with the Xmas music and Xmas lights... it was much brighter inside than usual so we could see the tracks very well. Almost seemed like we were outside!
We missed the fireworks while we were on SM but it was pouring out so we didn’t mind.

Monsters inc was lots of fun with a Xmas theme to all of the jokes.

Club tinsel was cute. We had some treats and enjoyed watching the reindeer dance.

Then, we walked right on Winnie the Pooh and under the sea and at 11:20 waited about 15-20 mins for SDMT. Our last ride of the night was jingle cruise which we walked right on and had a very funny skipper! Great way to end the wet night.

On our way out, we danced to the Xmas music in the hub and took lots of pics as we walked down Main Street.

This was such a fun way to kick off the Christmas Season!

Pros:

Short lines, festive atmosphere... lots of fun!

Cons:

It rained:(

We are annual passholders and have done the Christmas party in the past, so we thought we had a good idea of what to expect. This is the first time I can say we were truly disappointed at that party on 11/8. Despite rain for the whole event, crowds were intense everywhere. We enjoy these events because the kids can experience so much more in the short amount of time. We only had success with our fast pass rides and on the teacups. It was nearly impossible to get thru the lines for the complimentary snacks, the stage performances were all cancelled or delayed, and we waited a considerable amount of time for a bus to take us back to the resort (I feel like Disney usually does a good job of anticipating crowds leaving and are prepared with bus departures). At first, we thought maybe we just had some bad luck this trip, but after talking to other guests and guest relations, the feedback we heard was all generally the same as ours. What a disappointment and waste of money 🙁

Pros:

Festive atmosphere, exceptional cast members

Cons:

Long lines for food and attractions, cancelled performances

Review of Under the Sea – Journey of the Little Mermaid

Fun cute ride for kids. Not much else. The animatronics are meh, and you can see how they are attached to objects, which is quite distracting. May not be the most technically advanced ride, but a nice one.

Pros:

Air-conditioned, cute, must-do for Little Mermaid fans

Cons:

Animatronics are meh, seems put together fast
