    At times, we’ve found Topolino’s to be on the level of Jiko (my second choice for tonight - we keep skipping it, lately!) At other times, it’s been very salty. There’s an appetizer on the menu that sounds good - a lamb gnocchi - we ordered it once, and detailed in our TR that it was inedible...

    We were just barely on time, but luckily found princess parking right away, which helped a lot. We took the now-familiar walk through to the elevator, and took it up to Topolino’s, arriving around 8:45pm. Our server was wonderful. We received our drinks …and went outside for…yet another...

    Before I could pick a place for dinner, B was out like a light. Magic Kingdom would be open until 11pm, but had extra hours for Deluxe Resort guests. I checked with our resident expert, and was reassured we were considered guests of WL until midnight. What about after midnight? 🤷🏻‍♂️ I made...

    I think we made the most of our last day at WL after checkout. 😃 We appreciated the opportunity to enjoy a Deluxe stay (again!) (I’m getting spoiled.) But it was time to move to this other hotel, which I picked because it was “so close.” Well, it was technically a half mile from the edge of...

    Now where was that…oh, here it is! No, ma’am! 😆😉💕

    The room at our new hotel was ready, so we took the bus… Back to Wilderness Lodge! Yes, our car was still there. We thought about going to the pool again today, but the weather didn’t merit it. However, we did use the sauna at the wilderness Lodge gym. It was 180° in there! We didn’t last...

    I had taken some pictures to build a case: What case, you ask? Notice anything? Tigger is grossly underrepresented in parks merch! Especially for Halloween! Mickey isn’t black and orange. Tigger is! It’s a no-brainer. Tigger needs new representation.

    We almost stopped at the China booth, but it was the only one with a line. Instead, I more or less gave up on food and wine, and stopped at the “local” bakery. School bread and non-alcoholic frozen coffee. Except the cashier could tell just from the look of the cup that this coffee did...

    In the good ole US of A: Not bad. Some fowl helped us to count. 1… 2… 3…

    We took the bus from WL to Epcot. Test Track had a fairly long wait, but Soarin’ was practically a walk-on. While we were in the building, we made our way over to another relatively short wait for Living With The Land - but it turned into a long wait, as the ride went down when we were 2nd in...

    Nope! I’m not sure where that bag came from - but Brian used to work at a sportsballs stadium, so maybe there(?)

    The original plan had been to go home the next day, and we did have to say our goodbyes to the WL - but we didn’t have to go home! I booked a night using my Marriott Bonvoy app at a hotel described as “less than a mile from the western entrance of the Walt Disney World Resort.” 🙄 So after...

    Although the park was closed, we were not finished! There was a 10 PM showing of Fantasmic - which we hadn’t seen in years. Why not?

    Absolutely worth a visit!

    We took a leisurely stroll, admiring all the Star Wars stuff…and another first: the blue milk (plus rum.) Just me - B wanted no part of that. 😆 By the time we got back to RR, it was 1 minute past 9:30, therefore closed. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    We did not bother going inside the Tune-In. The line for Runaway Railway was a little long, but I figured when the first showing of Fantasmic started, it would go down. I was right, but by that time, it didn’t matter. We were too far away and having too much fun at our first ever visit to...

    …but we sure made the best of it! All on the fly, too. Hollywood Studios! Spoiler alert: we arrived at 8pm and didn’t go on any rides. 😆 I was sad that Julie was not at the Tune-In, and missed my bday. I texted her these pics as a guilt trip (and a compliment.)

    After Pirates, it was time for our ADR at Skipper Canteen. It had been for an earlier time, but after getting the Beak & Barrell ADR, they were too close together. The app wouldn’t let me change it, but the CM outside the venue did. 👏🏻 Remember that fab duck from last time? I had to go...
