Just returned last night from our Adult Only trip 5/18-5/22. Friday was the best day as far as crowds were concerned and Monday was THE WORST! There were Grad Nites on Friday and Saturday of our trip and I didn't feel that impacted by it. We did take advantage of EMH to DL on Saturday, and got a lot done even though we had a hiccup with our MaxPass. We were scanned in at the gate, but when I went to make our first MaxPass after the mad dash to Peter Pan, it said we hadn't entered the park that day. Was told by a CM to go to City Hall to have it fixed. We decided to ride a few rides first as we did not want to waste our EMH at City Hall. The CM outside of City Hall told us it would be faster just to go to one of the CM's at the gate and have them rescan our tickets. Was pretty easily fixed.
We had 3 ADR's for our trip - Splitsville 5/18, Carthay Circle 5/19, and Napa Rose Chef's Table 5/20. I was not very impressed by Splittsville, food and atmosphere were meh. I don't think this will be something we try again. Carthay Circle was amazing! When we arrived I asked if we could sit outside over Buena Vista Street and they accommodated us. We did not do the PTN package, but we took our time eating, and as the place was clearing out we asked our waiter if we could order a bottle of wine and watch the parade. He was more than willing to let us do so. We had a great view from the balcony and once the parade was over the fireworks started shortly after. The music from the firework show was piped into the balcony. AMAZING. We also splurged on the Chef's Table at Napa Rose as this is not something we would ever do with our kids! It was an amazing experience, the food was great, the chef was so nice, just a really great time.
Overall a great trip. Was fun to have an Adult Only trip with my DH, but there were certainly times I missed having the kids there.
