Leaving Soon & Live reports, cruise updates pg19

[Pegasus928]

The food looks good in BC.
I have to ask though - do you normally travel in shirt and trousers or did you feel it was necessary for this particular standard of flight.

Hey Wayne, that piccy of you onboard is very similar to our Virgin cattle class
Glad to hear your trip went better than ours!
Gatwick departure 1 hour late
Budget fastpass - no one at kiosk when we got there, but had to wait arround 40 minutes because I had got a FREE upgrade, but had to wait for a car to be delivered. Back to Dollar for me next year!
Hope Karen is on the mend, Matt looks like he could be mistaken for the pilot!
Speak soon

I hope Karen is feeling better, soon.

PS. Was over in your neck of the woods in Leeds today on business! Passed Dewsbury... and thought it must be time you were over again!!

I assume you drove straight from Tampa to Orlando? I hate to think what time you finally got there - I hope you got some sleep on the plane . Sounds as though Delta was a good experience, but direct, non-stop is the only way for me. I admire your stamina!

drive from tampa airport around an hour not bad

Matt likes to wear his shirt & trousers so I decided to also.

Doesn't sound too good with Budget. I collected at Tampa but didn't pre-reg this time as we were indirect I expected it to be quieter, It was, no-one there. No-one in kiosk outside either all done inside. They gave us a Chevy HHR 1st, supposed to be inter with free upgrade to full size, Matt struggled to get his long legs in back of it, looked more like a intermediate to me? went back in and swapped for a Chevy Malibu, really nice to drive and more like full size.

Hi Tracy, Karen is not good, pain right thru her leg can only walk a few yards then has to rest, looking lke a wheelchair in the parks next week. Matt is 6' 2" now just gone 15 years old last week, no idea if he has done growing yet.
That was bad timing, hope we are home next time you pass then you can call.


Today we had lunch at Wolfgang Pucks Express, very impressed for a counter service. Also a few pics of our room at OKW.

All had Caesar salad

I had chick Alfredo

Karen had Bolognase

Matt, Spag & meatballs

All had Frozen yog & 3 sodas, total $70.66, no way would I pay that for lunch but all incl on DDP.

3 of ready to go out for eve meal at Cali Grill.

I like my food so usully post plenty of food pics

[Lizzybear]

All sounds good so far! I love WGPE, amazing value for a CS credit and your plane food all looked really nice

 

[disneyholic family]

that's counter service food? looks really really yummy!!! i would have had what Karen had......mmmmmmmmmm.......

the room looks nice Wayne - not long in the tooth as many have warned...
looks in very good shape..

i see you have a studio - but at OKW, even the studios are pretty decent sized...

are you near the main building/pool, or deeper in the complex?

i'm so sorry to hear about Karen's back....maybe those electic vehicles would be good?

 

[Cinderella2006]

Thanks for posting Wayne, we are flying out next Sunday for two weeks at OKW in a studio so it was nice to see what condition the rooms were in. They look fine to me!
Hope your wife still manages to enjoy herself despite the difficulties.
If you see a welsh family of five waving its probably us! For your sake i hope we don't get the room next door

Great photos Wayne! OKW rooms look lovely, how did you find Cali Grill? Were off there in October for the first time?

 

[Pootle]

Poor Karen - I hope things improve for her. I needed a scooter last time I was at OKW pending knee surgery and it was a great help, but it will be good to go back again in November now I'm fully mobile again.

Where is your studio situated? Ground floor?

Enjoying the reports

 

[natalielongstaff]

Hope you had a good time at cali grill

 

[Tinks1984]

Hey Wayne,

Looks like you're having a great time so far! That food looked delicious!

Looking forward to more updates through-out your trip!

Hope Karen feels better soon!

Is it just me, or would anyone else like to see the live updates posted as individual threads? Maybe I'm just lazy, in which case, please feel free to disagree with me, but I struggle to keep up with ever-growing threads.

 

[Chilly]

Yummy looking food.

me too!! I must admit I end up just scanning for Wayne's posts and not reading anyone else's - although if that was totally true I wouldn't have seen this would I!!

 

[Cyrano]

Wayne the food at Wolfgang looks lovely.
Looking forward to your Cali Grill update
