LOL about the kid behind you. To bad karma wasn't on your side and he got THAT aisle. He sounds like a real jerk. He had some nerve telling you he didn't like to get up. If he would have given you crap I would have told the flight attendant. He can't hold you hostage in your seat
Your room at Cabana Bay looked exactly like ours. I wonder if they all look the same. We had the same colors and everything. Did your room have a little sitting area in the front? Ours was on the ground floor and when you walked in we had a little kitchenette area and a couch etc and then the 2 beds and the bath. The decorating was not my mom's fave but we liked it. We had stayed in a timeshare for our DW portion and since we booked it last min and on xmas week we got a really crappy one. It was dirty and actually had roaches! Needless to say we were glad to check out and into Cabana bay for our univ days. We we right by the food court and we enjoyed it. We esp enjoyed the pools and we saw they had movies at the main pool in the middle but we never partook as we were in the parks a lot. We also did dinner at the 2 loews hotels. Our first night and our 2nd night. They are NICE and I think if we go back mom is going to want to try and stay in one of them. But Cabana was def nice and perfectly fine too. We just liked all the themeing etc of Portofino and the other one (can't remember the names).
We also went to Toothsome but it was one night after the parks. We just went for the shakes and we shared 2 between the 4 of us. I really liked them and no one told us we could keep the glasses and we left them there. Didn't try the food but that is too bad most of it wasn't good. I wonder if the entrees are better than the apps. Were you able to get any food discounts from Derek or is that restaurant separate? Just wondering.
Love the info and pics so far!
