>>>>>
Epcot was crowded in the area they gave us forIlluminations. "Heavenly dessert party" was somewhat lame.
Oatmeal cookies, brownies, rice crispy treats, lemon bars, coffee.
Coffee, soda.
After we moved to the area between Space & Test Track it had tables and water but still the same lame desserts.
DJ was good

This it followed by an amazing day where we'll treat you to a "Taste of Downtown Disney" and a classic Founders Day Celebration at the resort.

Jodie Benson sang about an hour at Grandest Opening
Taste of Downtown Disney was awesome about 10 different restaurants served many special foods. DVC made sure bottled water was everywhere since the temps were in the mid to upper 90's all 3 days.. I bet I drank $60 worth of Disney priced bottled water over 3 days.
All in all I feel this Members Homecoming was well worth the $250. I actually would pay that much for what we got at Magic Kingdom the second night..
