    Trip Report How Many Attempts Does It Take To Induce a Diabetic Coma: An Adult Adventure at Food and Wine Festival *completed*

    I am so glad that you enjoyed the trip report. It helps to be in your happy place to have happy pictures. I just ran a couple of errands and Keith asked me how did it go and off I went on a tirade.

    I feel exactly the same way. I've been reading trip reports to escape from this reality. The first couple of months of lockdown I was doing swimmingly, but the uncertainty of the future has been getting to me. Hope you grab a little joy here and there. Thanks for hanging in there.

    I can identify with much of what you have to say. You can see how similar we are if you check out my latest trip report.

    Trip Report ***COMPLETED*** Happy Howdyween - September 2019

    I totally remember the character bus in Epcot! By the reports of WDW, we have come full circle and that's the kind of character interaction you will see. Disney Food Blog is such a great resource. Score for getting the shortbread tin!

    Trip Report The "Did you schedule any bathroom breaks?" Trip report

    Unlike a video game, I would not be surprised if it did not matter at all what you do in the cockpit of the Millennium Falcon for the end result. Next time I'm just going to do nothing and see if there is any difference. I was an engineer so I wasn't looking forward the whole time. OMG, what...

    Trip Report Blisters! Why Did it Have to be Blisters?! A 2019 Flower and Garden Report COMPLETED

    What a wonderful trip your sister and you had. I'm sure that with each of your crazy lives with families of your own, it was very special for you. I couldn't believe that with as much eating as you described at the end you still had credits leftover. You have got to love the convenience of...

    Trip Report Holidays, Christmas Castle, and a Proposal

    I don't know what I'm doing reading a trip report while hungry. That is a big mistake. That pizza from Via Napoli looked so good. How great that your girlfriend was able to keep the engagement a surprise for you. I can't believe she waited until day 5. I would need to do it on day 1 because...

    Trip Report ***COMPLETED*** Happy Howdyween - September 2019

    I can totally relate to the lack of sleeping the night before a trip. You both look like a very cute couple. I loved your picture at the Marketplace at Batuu. I'm with you, I far prefer Soarin' over Test Track, although it's a fun ride. I just don't get the appeal of Test Track. Hasn't...

    Addendum: I did a little exercise to see how I made out with the Disney Dining Plan financially. Based on my calculations, if I had been paying out of pocket for the food and beverage that I used my dining credits for I would have spent $493.46. Keith would have spent even greater. The dining...

    Thank you for the compliment. Mickey bars are always delicious. They now sell them at my local supermarket, but they just aren't the same. For one thing, they are smaller. I intended on having a citrus swirl on this trip but never got around to it. Oh well, there is always next time...

    Sad to say it most likely that I won’t be returning to Walt Disney World until a vaccine has been developed for COVID-19. I think that Walt Disney World is doing all they can to make me safe. I don’t trust the general public. There are absolutely no consequences for people on flights should...

    It’s my last day and I am plagued with second thoughts with the “Shoulda, coulda, woulda syndrome”. I do my best to remember that I’m just gonna be happy with what I did. Let’s face facts. I crammed an awful lot into this trip. More than I even anticipated. Part of that is because crowd...

    Overheard at the parks: “Oh, don’t mind him, he a narcissist, just like his father”. Classic! Part of today’s mission is Leave No Snack Credit Behind. Since Keith did not go on the Food and Wine Festival tour the second day at Epcot, we have all the snack credits he would have used then to...

    The cheapskate in me is coming through and I’m having a spinach and feta quiche over at Kusafari coffee shop and bakery and I’m not ordering anything to drink because right behind me is a water fountain around Port Authority. I’m just going to wash it down with tap water from the water fountain...

    Today is our final day, Monday, October 28, 2019. It reached 92°. I was heading to the Animal Kingdom with a crowd level of 2. I dressed in the t-shirt and cap that I had purchased earlier in the week, so I was enjoying my Disney gear. Keith has decided to take things at a leisurely pace and...

    After our time relaxing back at the resort Keith and I took Disney bus transportation and made it to our 7:00 pm dinner reservation at Boma at the Animal Kingdom Lodge. Boma is a buffet featuring dishes you might find in African countries. We are adventurous eaters so we were excited for...

    My apologies for not getting back to this sooner. Because I waited so long to tell my story, it probably will end up being far more pictures than text. Sigh. I am so thankful that I was able to take this trip. This is how I wanted to experience Walt Disney World. What will it be like after...
