Disney Day 2.

We had a late start to the day.  8:30 am we all rolled out of bed and made our way to the food court.  It's cafeteria style aka Quick Service.  The kids and I indulged in Mickey waffles, eggs and French toast.  And coffee, oh thank you Disney coffee.  It was another kind of bum around day.  The park action doesn't start until tomorrow.  We had early dinner plans at the Hoop-de-Doo and because this was our first time relying on Disney transportation we wanted to stay close to our home resort. We decided to head back to Disney springs via water taxi to pick up a couple items we decided we wanted to buy (matching Mickey tee-shirts for the boys.) the kids grabbed giant strawberry lemonade slushes and these pretzel bites.  We watched a quick Christmas choir on the Disney Springs main stage and wandered around a bit more.
Around 1pm we headed back to our resort to get ready for dinner and figure out the logistics of getting there.

We ended up getting there early so we spent some time exploring the horse farm and also got a quick play in at the playground.

The Hoop-de-Doo revue was nothing like we had ever experience.  
There are two seating for the dinner show every night.
We were at the first show.  After 'checking in' we were escorted out seats in this theatre style seating.  The table
Was already filled with our appetizer.  Garden salad and cornbread with sweet butter.  The plates are this metal and the drinks are served in giant mason jars.  
There is no menu here.  It was served family style.
Unlimited Corn, mashed potatoes, beans, ribs and fried chicken.  Oh and unlimited booze.  There were 6 entertainers cracking jokes and dancing to various Christmas songs. A lot of slap stick style humour and all very family friendly.  It was very interactive too which the kids loved.  This will be something we book when we come back again.
Even though it uses two adult dining credits per adult.
Well worth the fun!  Sophia even said it was her most favourite meal ever.

The show is well timed.  In and out. 
We headed back to wait for our bus.

We headed back to the resort around 6:30 and went for a night swim.  
I don't think we've stopped smiling today.
Early start tomorrow.  Day 1 at the Magic Kingdom and we plan on being there for rope drop at 8 am.
