  1. We have made it to Universal and to the City Walkā€¦.. While it is early, Patti wants to head over to the Water Shuttles and take a ride over to the Sapphire Falls Resort to check it out. Iā€™ve never been there so I follow her to the Water Shuttles. Each Water Shuttle goes back and forth to a specific Hotel and Resort. There are signs and lines for each one. This is the Water Shuttle to the Sapphire Falls Resortā€¦.. Patti got these views from our Water Shuttle as we head to the Sapphire Falls Resortā€¦.. To be continuedā€¦..
  2. Post Cruise - (January 23rd) - Our day at Universalā€™s City Walk. We were up at 7am to a partly sunny, warmer day. The temperature is going to reach the mid 70ā€™s later, so weā€™ll be wearing our shorts again! After putzing around for a while, we made our way to the Fountain View CafĆ© for the breakfast buffetā€¦. Around 10am we hopped in the car to head to Universal. Itā€™s really only a ten minute drive from the hotel. We are soon passing Universalā€™s Endless Summer Resort. They built it where Wet n Wild used to be. IYKYKā€¦.. We have reached Universal Orlandoā€¦. We follow the signs to the parking deck. Itā€™s $30 to park. There is a special lane for handicapped parking which leads you right by the entranceā€¦.. Here is where we parked. Being old people we always take a picture of where we parked so we can find our way back. Lolā€¦.. Once again you have to go through security, metal detector and bag check. After that you can walk or use the moving sidewalk to get over the bridge, and to the entrance of City Walk. Here are some views from the moving sidewalkā€¦.. Here I am! To be continuedā€¦..
  3. Thanks! You need to get back there. A lot has changed in the last ten years. With her bad feet, she doesn't even want to know how many steps she takes!
  4. Don't tell me that you were afraid to walk up the glass steps! šŸ˜
  5. I thought so, but just to be sure I checked our Sail & Sign charges. In San Juan we were charged roughly 10% tax on each drink. However, I had 3 drinks while we were docked in St. Thomas and was not charged any tax. Weird. šŸ™„
  6. Comedy Club tip. Enter the V lounge on the starboard side and sit at the corner of the bar. Great sightline to the stage. šŸ˜Ž
  7. My go to lunch on the Spirit Class is Chopsticks. In the buffet on the port side. It becomes the Seafood Corner for dinner.
  8. Patti is almost back to the Boathouseā€¦. Patti has made it back. The first order of business is to get her a Malibu Bay Breezeā€¦. We order our lunch. Iā€™m having the lobster rollā€¦.. Patti orders the Yacht Club, half of which sheā€™ll bring back to the hotelā€¦.. After we finished eating and had another drink, we make our way back to the car. As we were leaving we passed a group of Disney buses. Reminded us of when we would stay on site we used those buses to take us everywhere. Good timesā€¦.. Back on I-4, we were soon passing Sea Worldā€¦.. We exit onto International Drive. We pass Icon Park and Ripleyā€™s Believe It Or Not. Weā€™ll be checking out Icon Park on Thursdayā€¦.. We were back in our room at 4pm, and we were ready for a nap, especially Patti who did a lot of walking on aching feet! We stayed in the rest of the night relaxing, watching tv, and working on pictures. Coming up next: Our day at Universalā€™s City Walk!
  9. Patti continues to make her way back to the Boathouseā€¦.. To be continuedā€¦ā€¦
  10. At this point Patti is starting to get hungry, so she begins to head back to the Boathouseā€¦.. To be continuedā€¦..
  11. Yes, one section is still called the Marketplace, and before it became Disney Springs it was Downtown Disney.
