Well we woke up bright an early for a morning of family golf at Highlands Reserve near Disney. Since I have not played in such a long time it was more of a fun thing for me instead of really concentrating on how my game was going. We all had a lot of giggles at Chris’s mom Jean who is just picking up the game. But she had some great shots during the day and we were all proud at how far she has come.
We did have reservations at Captain’s Grille at the Yacht Club to check out our possible reception venue. So we headed back to the hotel after golf so Chris could nap and Jean and I could check out the pool before dinner.
I was not really thrilled with the Bay Lake Tower pool. I liked the bar area off to the right side. I also liked the slide and the view of the pool from our room was great. But the actual pool itself was very small and felt a little too kid friendly. It was very shallow and not suited well for adults. But the games they had going on near the pool kept us laughing and we had a fun dip before dinner.
We all got ready a little early so we decided to park near the Boardwalk and walk over to the Yacht and Beach Club so we could walk near our future wedding site and take some pictures that I can look over in the future when thinking about floral options for the wedding.
After we got our pictures…we headed to dinner Starved!
We had a really fun night at the Grille. We had our cake tester sent over from BabyCakes and boy was it good! We also got to try some of the food we may have at our mini reception after the wedding. The boys LOVED the bacon and cheddar mashed potatoes and we literally heard about these all week long. They said they would take them over dessert easily. This has to be one of those foods people crave while at Disney.
We met with the Food & Beverage Manager of the Yacht & Beach Club, Ashley. She was so nice and really accommodating. The dinner and service we received from her and our server let us know that that was the best location for the reception for sure!

After dinner on the way to the car we checked out the shops at the boardwalk, which I think are some of the best on property. If you are vacationing at Disney do yourself a favor and visit the Boardwalk area at night. The dining is great and the entertainment on the Boardwalk is even better. Chris and I even got pulled into participating in a skit which was pretty cool!
