Trip Report JenniferS Is Live - 9/7/16 - 9/17/16

Hi, my name is JenniferS, and I am a Disneyholic. I have been accused of being a Pixie Dust snorter. I've been accused of worse, so no biggie.

Once we get home from a Disney trip, I am always in a bit of a funk, and never really up to doing a proper trip report. For those of you who know me, I generally post live over in Chit Chat somewhere. This is my first dedicated live trip report in the actual Trip Report Thread.

The cast:
Me. JenniferS. Just turned 49. Honestly friends, I don't know how that happened. I still feel 27. But, my passport and driver's licence insist I was born in 1967, and I have two 20-something sons, so it must be true.

This is me, on my way to work this morning. All smiles, because this is my last day of work for almost two weeks!

And this is Hubby. He is not on his way to work today, as he has been off work for 6 months. He is 48 years old and this is the first entire summer he has had off since he was 14. In 31 years together, this is only the second time I have seen him with a tan.

Goofy is his favourite character.

And last year, he was obsessed with this over-sized "Stitchie". There was no room in our luggage, but this year, I am determined to buy it for him, and bring it home by any means necessary. Actually, I'm just going to bring our big SouthWest duffel bag, and pay for an extra bag coming home.

This will be our first Disney trip, just the two of us, since 1992! :jawdrop:

Okay, that's the Who.
Coming up next - the Where.

I feel your pain on the 4:30 reservation time at Tutto. I tried booking there at the 180 day mark and that was the only available time, so something must be up!

When we left the restaurant after dining last night, it was less than 40% full at 5:30. There were plenty of staff on hand, and many, many empty tables.
I attempted right up until day of to modify our ressie time. Zero luck.
Maybe you will have better success.

There were a lot of people here, so "swimming" was out of the question. After going down the water slide six times, I mainly just starfish floated. Every minute or two, Hubby grabbed my foot and pulled me out of traffic.
I did not put sunscreen on my face because my moisturizer is SPF 30. Sadly, I had not put moisturizer on my face, so I am a lovely shade of pink. :facepalm: Hopefully not burned, just sun-kissed.

Lunch.

Somehow I think you've seen this before.

And this.

I got the crab cake sandwich, with no bun, remoulade on the side.

Aaaah, that's better. Phew, dodged a bullet there.

I tasted this. The base is way too rich and heavy. There is a strong possibility that I'm just going to eat the sweet stuff on top and go into a sugar coma.

Milk for the room. I generally drink milk everyday, but haven't had a sip since Tuesday. Nor have I had my favourite milk substitute - a chocolate milkshake!
