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

    We finished our drinks over at the Wave and the Long Island Iced Tea was really kicking in as we rode a Disney bus over to Disney Springs. I’m talking to this whole group of people from the UK on the bus. Every time up until the monorail crawl, I let my listeners know at some point, it is just...

    No Walt Disney World adventure is complete without a ride on the monorail Time for an adult afternoon. Some, like toddlers, might take a nap. We, who enjoy the occasional adult beverage, embark on a Monorail Pub Crawl. Our goal is to have at least one beverage at a lounge at each of the...

    After a short walk back to the Magic Kingdom, we once again took a spin on the People Mover. We both really enjoy it. It is then that we get a text from Andy letting us know he would not be able to join us. His doggie, Susie, is having serious health issues and needs to see the vet. We are...

    It is time to leave the park and have some lunch. We walked from there to the Contemporary Resort for a full-service meal at The Wave…of American Flavors. Those three dots are very important, I’m sure. Who is naming things over here? I am ready for some cocktails! Keith had the spicy...

    Good Morning! I’m the only person on the bus. I’ve got my own personal chauffer and I’m loving it. He’s playing “Somebody’s Watching Me” which I haven’t heard in forever on the radio. It’s early in the morning on Thursday, October 24, 2019. There is no traffic at a couple of minutes past...

    That was the end of Day 2. I thought I would take this time to show off my Loungefly castle mini backpack from Day 1.

    We allowed enough time, so we didn’t feel rushed. When it was time to leave, we decided to take a boat over to the Magic Kingdom to experience Happily Ever After, the nighttime spectacular at the Magic Kingdom. We just missed a boat, but they run so frequently that we didn’t have too long to...

    We took a Disney bus over to Epcot which was our closest park. From there we took a bus over to Wilderness Lodge. Where do you think we are having dinner? We ate at Wilderness Lodge resort, Geyser Point Bar and Grill. I have never been at this restaurant or this resort before. I felt like I...

    Thank you for your kind words. I would be so anxious that my trip is so close! I would just let your adolescent know that Galaxy's Edge is like going into a different planet in the Star Wars Universe. It's kind of alien, kind of not. I just realized Rise of the Resistance should be open by...

    My opinion on the success of Galaxy’s Edge is the approach that Disney took with it. I think that in the short term, the land has not been an automatic home run because they decided to base it on a “create your own adventure” perspective. How many people knew the planet “Batuu” prior to...

    The numbing effect is from the foam of the Fuzzy TaunTaun; any numbing effect in the Jet Juice is from alcohol ;) We went to Oga’s Cantina where it was a blast. While in line to enter, they give you a menu to peruse. Let’s face it, you don’t want to waste time on decision making when they...

    Our lunch was at Docking Bay 7 and Cargo. I used mobile ordering for my quick service meal and had the same reaction that others have. Thank goodness more people aren’t using mobile ordering! By the time I entered the eatery, my meal was ready. I just walked up to the counter and they had it...

    At noon we had an appointment for Keith to create and purchase his very own light saber. For every customer, they can bring one guest. Prior to entering the metal scrap yard, you are given a choice to review four different themes of light sabers. Keith chose “power and protection”. The whole...

    We had an appointment back on Batuu. Keith wanted to try the signature drink of Galaxy’s Edge and got the Blue Milk. But he got the blue milk with alcohol. Because its Keith. He says, and I agree, it is like a piña colada slushy. That’s kind of what it is like. The main ingredient is rum...

    From there we went on to enjoy the traditional Disney Hollywood Studios attractions. The Muppets I will always love and wonder why they have been getting such short shrift in recent years. With each passing year, I believe I become more and more like Stadler and Waldorf. It’s just a matter of...

    Ronto Roasters Ambience: 9 Food: 9 Price/Value: 8 Overall: 8.5 They were completely out of the rebel jacket that I wanted on Batuu. They didn’t have my size. They didn’t have it anywhere else in Walt Disney World. They didn’t have it online. They simply didn’t have it. How...

    Well, after breakfast they serve the Ronto Roaster: The wrap is filled with roasted pork, grilled pork sausage, peppercorn sauce, and a tangy slaw. Like the breakfast wrap, it’s all wrapped up in a pita. It seems to be they just substitute the scrambled eggs with a tangy slaw and substract the...
