Day 2 Part 2
We headed back to Disneyland Park for our 5PM reservation at Walts. We got through the turnstiles at around 4:15, and remembered the parade would be starting shortly so we found a place on Town Square and watched it! Although I do like the music, after the 3rd time it does get quite annoying! Much preferred Once upon a dream parade  :cry:
Anyway, we headed for the restaurant and were seated in the Fantasyland room at the back of the restaurant.

The restaurant was really quiet, although there was a cluster of people sat in the Main Street and Frontierland Rooms.
Our Spanish waitress arrived and took our orders. Although her English wasn't the best, after a bit of pointing we had our food ordered.  :P

Before our Starters arrived, we were given some nice hot bread with this very familiar sounding butter!

For starters we both had a Caesar Salad:

For Dessert, I had a Chocolate Fondant Pudding (That was gorgeous)

In other news, just booked Sequioa Lodge for early July! Got 4 nights there, and after that gonna spend a few nights closer to Paris and see the city! Couldn't resist the 2 days free offer!
