Trip Report Heigh-Ho, Heigh-Ho it’s off to TR’ing we go!!

And I swear, before anyone thinks I’m biting off @wdisney9000’s title I’m not!! I had the title in my mind while I was on the plane. Imagine my surprise when I opened up this app & saw his latest!! I debated but it was hard enough for me to come up with that title much less pick another one. @wdisney9000 I hope you’re ok with this!! And more importantly now that I know we’re both here at the same time I hope we get to meet up again!!

Ok, here we go!!

Here’s the crew(in the elevator-interesting place for a pic) when we first arrived here an hour ago!!

Leaving cold, dreary Pittsburgh behind!!

In a much warmer climate!!

We have a 1BR in The Springs section. Literally right across the street from the main building. Perfect!!

Check out the new soap/lotions!!

We headed to bell services to pick up our groceries & when I looked at the app I saw that they canceled our order!! I placed it again & it should be delivered this evening. I don’t understand why but the silver lining is that I took off the hand soap now that Disney has liquid in the room. We normally always order a liquid one so it saved us a few bucks!!

On our way to Disney Springs now!!

Your TRs have been missed! And I am sad to be missing you this month!

 

[ajrwdwgirl]

I hope you have fun but I wish we would have been there at the same time again this year. I think you should extend your trip by a couple of days.

Dinner was great but the company was even better!! We had the pleasure of dining with my dear friend @MickeyCB & her son!!

I was so excited when I realized our trips were overlapping!! It’s been quite awhile since I’ve seen her. Before she moved to California you may recall that she lived in Pittsburgh. We talk/text a lot but it was so nice to be together in person again!!

Check out this charcuterie board!!

I had lasagna.

@MickeyCB & my niece, H, were passing the baton back & forth as to who would step into action if someone needed medical attention

All too soon it was time to part ways but it was a wonderful evening & on the walk back I was telling R how happy I was that we were able to get together!!

We went to bell services to get Instacart order #2. It was there. So imagine my surprise when I looked at my emails & found this regarding order #1.
So, they’re claiming they couldn’t deliver it & they’re charging me a $15 fee!? Yet, they delivered order #2 with no issues. WTH??

You’re too sweet!! And I’m beyond bummed!!

I hope you have fun but I wish we would have been there at the same time again this year. I think you should extend your trip by a couple of days.

I wish so too!! I would love to but I don’t think work would be too happy with that!!

So, I’m assuming your trips are overlapping, ladies?

 

[mpaulam]

Yay! Following along

That charcuterie board looks like the stuff of dreams. The lasagna too! With every trip report I see it, I think more and more that Terralina is severely underrated.

 

[Swissmiss]

Yay! I have been looking forward to this TR since reading in @MickeyCB’s TR that she was meeting up with a friend from Pittsburgh

 

[PineapplePrincess]

Looking forward the rest of your report! I agree, coming up with a name for your TR is the hardest part. It makes me feel less weird that I'm not the only one who starts thinking of a name before the trip even starts!

 

[cassidy]

So glad you are writing another trip report!! I hope you never tire of Disney !!

 

[Wicked Sisters]

So pleased to see you are doing another report. I also noticed that J has got a lot taller since the last trip report. Looking forward to the next instalment.

What a busy day we’ve had!!

It started with E getting a double whammy!! She got stopped at security then her magic band wouldn’t work!!
Busted!!

I always say this & I’ll say it again-my favorite MK sight!!

We walked through The Emporium & H noticed @MickeyCB & her son so of course we chatted for a bit!!

10 minute wait for Pirates!!

We didn’t have far to go for our reservation!!

Cheers!!

We went to Philharmagic next. The CM pointed out this hidden Mickey. I never noticed it before.

In case you were wondering where R & J were…..
They were golfing at Lake Buena Vista golf course.

Us girls ate lunch at Skipper Canteen!! It was excellent!!

Time to head out of MK!!

But not before stopping here(J’s request)!!

Some Christmas decorations are still up!!

Next stop, Tambu Lounge!!

A few more decorations!!

 

[riverside]

We wanted to try the new bar at the GF but the whole 8 seats they have were full so we went to Enchanted Rose instead.

E had to get her picture with that darn glass slipper again then sent it to our sister, C & myself and asked us where her evil stepsisters were.

But who’s the evil one? She got stopped by security yet again!!

I just had to grab another one!!

R always confuses these 2 resorts. We were meeting them at Wilderness Lodge. I kept telling J to make sure R didn’t get them on the wrong bus. They took the bus from Saratoga to MK. As it turned out we all got on the same bus but the joke was on me when I realized that it goes to both resorts!!

We wanted to go to Geyser Point before dinner but there was a 45 minute wait so Territory Lounge it was!!

 

[ajrwdwgirl]

How was Beak and Barrel? We have a reservation there for next Sunday. What drinks did you have?

 

[riverside]

Dinner was great & so much fun!!

I had the beef stroganoff.

 

[riverside]

A few more from dinner…

I have yet to get our pic with the Evil Queen but I’m sure I’ll get it soon!!

Farewell Wilderness Lodge & now back to Saratoga!!

J is getting so big, he looks like a young man and not a child anymore. Time is a thief.

 

[riverside]

Our picture with the Evil Queen. Silly me, I assumed that watermarks wouldn’t be on the picture otherwise I would have had someone take a picture with my phone. Live & learn…..

And a picture with another queen-& not an evil one in the least!!

Yes, that’s my friend Darstarr!! We had a great evening hanging out at The Turf Club!!

 

[riverside]

I guess I waited too long to buy LL’s bc as of the other day nothing was available for today. J asked if we were going on Guardians the other day. Only one way to do that-rope drop(hopefully)!!
He & I get to the bus stop at 7:59. Bus is due at 8:01. Everyone gets on-except us. There wasn’t enough room. So we’re waiting for the next one.

Took the traditional picture to help pass the time!!
