Another early morning for me as I had big plans for my day...... hit rope drop in MK for the Welcome show and Adventureland, over to the Poly for a coffee refill, hop to Hollywood Studios for ToT and BatB, lunch at HBD, hit Epcot for World Showcase, pool time complete with pool side beverages and back to MK for EMH! Wow, I'm tired just typing that! But I did it and had so much fun! My first plan of the day was to head to the Bellevue Lounge for coffee and something yummy. After filling my mug, I chose an almond croissant which I ended up eating at the bus stop as I was waiting for the MK bus. This was still warm, flaky and delicious with lots of slivered almonds and a yummy almond centre. So good!
I then headed off to MK to enjoy the welcome show which I hadn't seen in about six years! I just love this show and may have shed a few tears at how lovely it was. After checking out the Main Street vehicles, I headed over to Adventureland for a date with some pirates! I took in a show with some crazy singing birds and went for a cruise in the jungle. The Twilight Zone was beckoning so I hopped over to HS via the Poly for a coffee top up. Once I got to the Studios I had to pose for a pic with Sorcerer Mickey.
I had quite a wait for Tower of Terror but it was worth every minute. I LOVE this ride and the stand by queue was awesome, I also had a lot of fun hunting for Hidden Mickeys inside the attraction.
After taking in The Beauty and the Beast show and enjoying the Muppets (see what you can do when you're not hanging out with three teenage boys?) it was time to head over to Hollywood Brown Derby for my 12:30 reservation. I waited for a few minutes and was led to a lovely two top near the back of the restaurant. It was great to just soak in the atmosphere and have a chance to recharge out of the heat. I decide to start off with the Strawberry Lime Cider. This was ice cold and yummy although a little on the sweet side for me. I still enjoyed it but would probably try something else next time.
I had to restrain myself with the rolls... so soft and warm. They were melt in your mouth good with the sea salted butter.
I decided to go with two appetizers for my meal as I like to do. My waitress was so accommodating with this and paced the delivery really well. For my first appetizer I went with the signature Cobb salad. I asked for the dressing on the side and just tossed it myself. This was excellent. All the ingredients were very fresh and paired well together.
For my second appetizer I chose the crab cakes. These were just stuffed with crab and had a very thin and crispy breading. Served with a zucchini slaw and a chili jam, these were over the top delicious.
I really enjoyed my meal here at HBD, the service was excellent and the food was so good. A definite win!

My DS's would laugh if I asked them to do it; DH would probably do it to appease me but I don't think he'd enjoy it which would take some of the enjoyment out of it for me! I'm not really a strawberries and cream person but whenever I see that dessert I really want to try it, although I feel like it's too pretty to eat!
No, you can never do everything, that's why you have to book another trip!
