Having a great time.  Whenever you come back to the hotel they always say &#034;Welcome home&#034;, like you never left.  I wonder if it dawned on anybody that that gives a very weird Hotel-California sort of vibe.<\/p>\n<p\/>Your meal plan comes as a fixed set of &#034;quick service&#034; points (think fast food) and a fixed set of &#034;table service&#034; points (sit down, be waited on). Today at lunch, at a quick service place, I saw a manager come over to a cashier with a customer and explain, &#034;She can use her table service points if she wants to.  Micky actually prefers that.&#034;  Those were his exact words.  Of course Micky prefers that, because the average cost of a table service point is probably about $25, and a quick service point is maybe $9, so if this lady wants to waste her table service points at a place where you take your own food back to your seat, they&#039;re not going to stop her.<\/p>\n<p\/>The level of indoctrination among the staff is amazing.  They gave Kerry and I &#034;Happy Anniversary&#034; pins, and I swear, every cast member said &#034;Happy Anniversary!&#034;  When one didn&#039;t, and another cast member came up behind her to say it, she got this &#034;oh crap&#034; look on her face and actually said, &#034;I am such a bad cast member!&#034;  It really gave the impression of a Mickey Mouse with a whip somewhere in the back room watching them all on video so he can dole out the beatings later.<\/p>\n<p\/>Kids are loving every minute of it.  Saw Magic Kingdom, had dinner with the princesses.  Just got back from the Electric Parade, which is no longer called that.<\/p>\n<p\/>I&#039;ll try to post more as I&#039;m able.  Quite a few pictures taken.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At Disney with the kids for their first visit. Having a great time.
