Eventually a bus came and we got to DTD around 8:45. Earl of Sandwich was still hopping even at that relatively late hour! I got the All American, yum! My mom got the one with chicken and spinach (the Florentine maybe?) and my dad got the Original 1762 or whatever it was. My parents LOVED their sandwiches (as did I). My mom said it was worth it to take the bus over even though it was late. We met a couple from New Hampshire in the seating area of Earl and chatted with them a bit. They were very nice.

We had planned to hit up Ghiradelli for sundaes next but it still was not open from it renovation (though I think I had read that it was supposed to have opened the day before) I was bummed because I LOVE that Ghiradelli ice cream, but what can you do?

We hit up World of Disney briefly to buy some souvenirs for our co-workers, etc and I once again asked my mom about buying stuff for the kids back home that we usually buy stuff for (nieces, nephews, cousins, etc, there are 5 of them) My mom had decided that we wouldn't get anything this trip since two of them are older now and two had been in WDW the week before so proabably already bought whatever they wanted. I thought this was a good idea, but I also know how my mom operates and she ALWAYS says things like this and then at the last minute decides that we need to buy everyone something. I really did not want to use any park time shopping for souvenirs so I told her we should buy stuff now if we were going to but she said no, we weren't getting anything. (I am sure you can all guess how this turned out a few days later).

We were getting tired so we got on a bus back to Beach Club and my dad wanted to get a drink so we went to the Martha's Vineyard lounge. I was still wanting ice cream so I went to see if Beaches and Cream was still open but I had just missed it. I walked around the resort a little on my own and headed back to the room. They came up shortly after and we were all off to our first night of Disney dreams!
