Off to Captain Cook’s we go. Bob & Linda are already there – as usual – so we tackle the touch screens ourselves. I order the Aloha Pork Sandwich, which has pulled pork, barbecue sauce, and coleslaw, and a side of “Polynesian Chips.” We’re all curious about those. Brandon orders a “Grown-up Grilled Cheese Sandwich” – that’s actually what it’s called – with a blend of cheeses on multigrain bread. Becky tries a tomato basil flatbread, and Benjamin (who learned from the Chefs de France yesterday that “flatbread” can mean “pizza”) gets a cheese flatbread and fries.
The Polynesian Chips turn out to be a blend of tortilla chips, mixing traditional corn chips with flour tortilla chips and a few seasoned chips. They’re okay, but the pulled pork sandwich is really good. The meal is nothing showy, but everyone is satisfied by it.
I take a moment to call Wallaby. We’ve not met in our two days here, mainly because he works in Animal Kingdom and we’ve been in Epcot, but we’re trying to arrange a meeting. I invite him along on another late-night outing with me and the boys, but he has to work early tomorrow. He’s off on Wednesday, though, so we talk about meeting at a meal. We settle on trying to add him to our lunch reservation at the Liberty Tree Tavern in the Magic Kingdom.
By 6:50 we’ve finished eating and head back to our rooms. I call Disney Dining to see about adding Wallaby. No go – with the holidays things are booked up. I send a text message to him to see if he’d like us to try for the evening meal on Wednesday, when we’ll be eating at Ohana here at the Polynesian.
We’re only in the room a half hour or so, and we’re excited about what’s coming next. It’s New Year’s Eve, and we have a fireworks cruise reserved!!
