Trip Report Again? Seriously?? Live-ish

Yup. Its only been 3 weeks and we’re headed back to the World.

3 weeks ago was our daughter’s 21st. Now, Princess weekend. @MeffysMom is doing 10k and half and me and my old man knees are just doing the 10k. Sadly, no daughter this time. She’s doing all the learning at college.

No previews, just reporting as it happens or as close to that as I can. Which means… welcome to BWI airport!

Have a great weekend!

Already a great morning!!

Love The Nomad Lounge and this TR! Thanks for taking us along!

Love Nomad as well! And it was a really nice and relaxing meal.

Delicious drinks.

First time I’ve gotten the tuna poke bowl and I absolutely loved it. Just the right amount of spice.

We also shared the bread service and in the background are my wife’s sliders.

Now it’s time to start getting ready for our races.

 

[brifraz]

Time to get bibs. Divide and conquer since she is doing the challenge.

Everything looks delicious! So jealous. Definitely one of our top 3 favorite spots in the "world"!

Good luck in the race. Although, I know you both don't need it.

So long as we don’t get swept it’s all good!!

Oh my goodness! Have the best time!

Oh my goodness! Have the best time!

I’m a little more this.

 

[brifraz]

Best weave of the day!

Wait, I have share with the Evil Queen??

Then I will have to work on becoming more evil myself (foreshadowing my race outfit)

Love your photo of Bakso and mum. Great report so far and enjoy your marathon.

@MeffysMom gets that photo credit.

Thanks for taking us along on another trip!

Always a pleasure!

Got some good rest time back at the room and now we are back to the parks. But separately. @MeffysMom is heading to Universal with a local friend (both have APs) for some Mardi Gras fun while this guy is hitting the other Studios.

I’m not crying. Not me. My eyes are sweating.

Like many people in my age bracket, for me Jim Henson is a hero. And as I am currently reading his biography, I find we are more similar than I would’ve imagined. Cheers, Jim.

 

[brifraz]

Alright, enough of that sadness. Let’s blast off for some adventure.

Perhaps this kind fellow can help me out.

Wasn’t planning to stand up, but glad they advised me anyway.

Evidently the person in the seat next to me stood up!!

Ready for a leisurely ride with the good people of Star Tours.

Wait! What?? There’s a spy on my ship?!?!

Maybe I don’t want to join the rebellion/resistance/etc. oh, wait, this cute little guy has convinced me I’m doing the right thing.

Rebellion it is! This should be fun.

 

[brifraz]

After all the eye sweating and rebel spy helping, I need some sustenance!

Cheapest beer on site? Giant pretzel? Warm place to sit and post on WDWMAGIC? Sounds perfect!

Ooooh, and loungey versions of 80s and 90s songs!!

 

[brifraz]

With beer and pretzel in my belly, it’s off to Batuu!

I did quite a bit of just wandering about. Talking to CMs, getting Photopass pictures, checking out all the shops, etc. once in the back, I figured as a new part of the rebellion, I’d better help Hondo and Chewie out. And I was sure that some crew needed an extra helper.

Plus the single rider hallway looked lonely.

Time to get down to business.

Or perhaps a game of holochess?

Helped some confused family steal some coaxiom and then, once again, wanted a bite to eat.

The pictures does it zero justice. I love the felafels at Docking Bay 7. The colors, sauce, and cubed veggies give it a Star Wars vibe plus it’s just good!

After that, it was 8pm and the alarm is set for 2:30am for race prep. So, until the spire!

What’s the definition of insanity?

3:30am. 46 degrees.
