Mouse Madness: Back to Food and Wine (Part Three)featured

by Nicole on May 15, 2013

We woke up to a sunny morning at the Coronado Springs Resort.

We headed to Cafe Rix to grab a light breakfast and to redeem our dining plan credits for the resort refillable mugs.

With a quick breakfast under our belts (or more accurately, in our stomachs), we hopped in the car and headed to Epcot and Food and Wine Fest! We spent some time in Future World getting our rides in before heading over to World Showcase to get our nom nom on.

A cranberry bog sits at the entrance of World Showcase during F&W. They give you free packs of Craisins, which make for great portable snacks!

After a few rounds of rides in Future World, it was time to get our Food and Wine on. A couple of months before we leave on these F&W trips, we go to our local Disney Store and buy a gift card. We reload it when we get paid and by the time we get to Disney, we have a nice bit of money on the gift cards. We find it a good way to keep ourselves in check with F&W Festival.

We toured the countries and shopped a bit while we sampled at the booths, and then we headed back to Future World to go on some rides.

We headed back to the resort for a bit of a siesta and to tour the grounds.

And I found my new favorite place: the hammocks. There are hammocks scattered on the area around the lake. I napped in one every day, I think. We’d go back to the resort mid-day, I’d check in with work, and then I’d go nap in a hammock.

Rested up, we headed to Magic Kingdom for the evening.

There was a short rain shower and as we were leaving the park, there was a rainbow over the lake.

We went back to the resort to get changed for dinner before hopping in the car and driving over to the Yacht Club for our dinner at the Yachtsman Steakhouse.
