No. There were no margarita shacks that I could see.

2 Places over by bridge near Test track and by the coral reef entrance area, or course at dusk/night. When most people are gone all you can hear is just the monorail going by.

Well near test track, wouldn't you hear the loud cars zoom by every 10-15 seconds?

But yeah I bet the seats near Coral Reef are very nice, especially with the water effect happening every 10 seconds or so.
I know this is probably your first flight...and it's mine too...ha, ha

Rain upon that planet Earth. And they rain ... and rain ... and rain. The deluge.

Hi Folks,

Mine is the side street off Main Street....You can usually get away from the crowds there, but still close enough to the Magic..... :mickey:
Thanks!

The place I was talking about is at the Market Place across from Pooh Corner down some stairs.The place where you rent boats is to the right. It was called something like Jack's Shack...a tiny place.It only had drinks. It had the best margarita's and Rum Runners!

The only problem was you can just never get one as everybody just likes to sit there at night and watch people walk on the busy boardwalk and you also get to watch the friendships make their trips around the water.
There are also a few chairs underneath the porch behind the Boardwalk lobby where I never found other guests. It was a wonderful place to sit with a book during a rainstorm and watch the rain hitting the water beyond the Boardwalk.

Also a walk along the Sassagoula River between POR and POFQ at sunset or just after. I also love to take my time walking down to the Riverside Mill for coffee (or what passes as coffee) first thing in the morning when the mist is just coming off the river.

I was bothered once by them, realized that they were audio-animatronic birds, pulled their batteries, and finished my breakfast! :wink:

Quiet Spot

Post by HauntedMansion74 » Apr Mon 27, 2009 8:08 am

At night at the Polynesion sitting on the beach is very peaceful! I also love sitting at the Flaming tree all the way in the back over looking Everest! beautiful spot to sit eat and relax! Also Saratoga Springs at night walking around the pool and getting a drink at Artist Pallete!

Now that's funny!!! Still the seagulls are not as bad as they are at Universal. I've been dive bombed a few times over there...

Riding the TTA, I've always loved putting my feet up riding backwards and just going along. If its not crowded, I'll often ask if I can just go around again
