Trip Report Escaping the ARCTIC BLAST

This trip was planned Friday about 1030pm. Those of you that know me know my distain for cold, worse snow and ice. Saw what was coming and my DD said get out of here. I had to endure one day of the blast yesterday but it is 83 degrees at the Moment.

And we I know how much I hate rack rate. So up at 2am to go to Midway. On 1.5 hours sleep 😴 $49 MDW TO MCO

Got trapped between the preshow and ride.
Knew it wasn’t going well when 3 maintenance dude walked through us. But got a FP that I used for Safari since I wasn’t having luck and easily got a Dino later.

What the real nice security guard did to my potato chips. He was squishing backpack to inspect vs visual. I joking asked if his goal was to squish every last potato chip? He was mortified. But he did just that.

Honestly the ones without the decals make for a better viewing experience. While the others are cute outside they distort everything from the inside. I may view that differently during the summer when a shield from the sunshine might be nice.

My travel companion woke late today too. I opted to ignore
Soarin FP and sleep another hour. Didn’t matter had my pick of all Future attractions this afternoon

Both these women about 30ish ahead of me in Soarin had purses wide open with long straps but not cross body and wallets on top.
Mind boggling

Very few veggies. Tiny things.

The braised brisket stroganoff was excellent.

Don’t look to closely @Bob

The corn beef was so good but need to be shredded smaller than 4” pieces. A plastic Knife doesn’t cut it.

Now the cheese curd awful. These Chefs obviously don’t know what a cheese curd should taste like. And you shouldn’t feel like you’re chewing on a Superball.

I had a lady sit down diagonally from me at my coveted picnic table. When she was done she proceeded to take out toothpicks and dental floss and clean her teeth at the table while I was eating. Bluck!

Fire burger was delicious. They stick the
Patty in an old forest preserve type BBQ that is all Smokey. Yum 😋
