This is our first trip and last trip ever to WDW. Here are the things that went wrong:
1. My son loves sports so we requested an All-Star sports room. When we checked-in we were told we were in Surfs Up. Whats that? We expected baseball or football or basketball. I told the lady that we were from the Midwest and surfing is not a sport where we live. I broke the news to my kid. He cried and was shot for the day. I demanded to speak to a manager. The manager said they only thing they could do was move us to All-Star Music. Good news! My kid loves top 40 music and rap. I gave the good news to him. The put us in the country western building. What? We hate country music. I broke the news to my kid. He cried some but was already shot for the day so he took it in stride.
2. On the first day we had a character breakfast reservation. We get to the restaurant and find out that the characters do not actually eat with you. They just walk around. $20 for eggs and hash browns and no special guest to eat it with? I broke the news to my kid. He cried and was shot for the day.
3. On day 2 we decided to go to Fantasmic. I had read somewhere that it is best to arrive early to get a good seat. We arrived a good 7 minutes before show time. It was packed and no seats anywhere. We must have picked a bad night. I broke the news to my kid. He cried and was shot for the day.
4. On day 3 we realized that we never received the free towel animals that everyone always talks about. I slipped housekeeping some loose change hoping she would get the hint. I thought if I called down to the front desk and asked for more towels that would help too. Well we returned to our room after dinner, and at first I thought I saw the most beautiful handiwork an ancient Egyptian pyramid made of terry cloth. I was dead wrong! It was just a bunch of towels stacked on the bed smallest to biggest. We got ripped off. My wife and I lied to our son about it being a special design just for him. However, by day 6 we could not restrain ourselves from showering any longer and slowly the building was demolished. My kid cried and was shot for the day.
5. On day 4 we went to the Magic Kingdom. We went to ride Timekeeper and it was closed. I knew my kid would not take this news well so we went to complain. They said that it is only open seasonally. Hoping to get some sort of perk, I lied and told the manager that we only came to Orlando to ride Timekeeper. He did not care and refused to give us a refund. They only thing he would do is give us a fast pass for Its a Small World. My kid is afraid of dolls. I broke the news to him. He cried and was shot for the day.
6. On checking out on our last day, I looked over the bill. We spent way more that I could have ever imagined. I cried and was shot for the day!
