Trip Report JenniferS was live! 9/6/17 - 9/16/17

This will be my fourth live trip report in a year, and after NYC last week, I thought Hubby had reached his limit, but he says, "No, go ahead, do a live trip report. It lets me control the tv while you talk to your friends." (As we meet more of my WDWDisney friends, he uses finger quotes around "friends" less and less.)

So, here we go, another live trip report. I really don't have the will to do a post trip report, so it's "live" or nothing. Once I'm out of the bubble, I'm out.

Introductions.

That would be me, Jennifer, on the left. Big Disney fan, big Blue Jays fan, big Hubby fan. Ace, in the middle - although he will always be BJ Birdie to me. Hubby, Mike, on the right. Although Mike is the one who first introduced me to Disney in 1991, it's not really his thing. He goes with me most years to make me happy. And also for the food.

As with our past three trips, we will be spending 11 days, 10 nights at Coronado Springs Resort. We booked a BounceBack offer before checking out last year, before knowing how much construction would be going on. Oh well, it is what it is. And what it is, is my favourite resort in my Happy Place; so it's all good.

We have a Preferred King room booked, which means Casitas 1, 2, or 3. Nonetheless, I think I will be sending in a room preference fax tomorrow asking for a refurbed King room in either 7A or 8A. I'll be happy either way. I am ridiculously easy to please whilst in WDW.

Yes, I am one of those Free Dining parasites. By booking the BB offer last year, we are actually getting the full DDP for free, instead of having to upgrade from QDP. I put great thought and effort into our ADR's. Mike is a big guy and eats a lot. The heat and humidity really kills my appetite, so Mike eats at least half of my meals too. (I've recently packed on 20 pounds, so that may be a good thing.)

Next up, our somewhat loosey goosey itinerary.

After shakes, we had lunch.
Pizzerizzo again.

In the banquet room this time. The lighting made for some pretty funky pics.

The boys both had the meatball sub w/side Caesar.

I had the salad again. A few bites of it anyway.

Cannoli for the menfolk. None for me.

After lunch, we perfectly timed Muppets 3D.

And then, shocker! :jawdrop: Mike joined us at the Frozen Singalong. He didn't actually sit with us, as he would have blocked the view of the kids

As soon as it started, I said to Eric, "Uh oh, we've got the B-Crew. Oh well, I still enjoyed it. Mike wants his 30 minutes back.

After his vociferous complaining, Mike went to the Swolphin (again fruitlessly) to pick up that stuff for our friend Dianne.

Eric and I watched the Star Wars preview film thingy, M & G'd with Kylo Ren and Chewie, and used FP's for Rock 'n Roller Coaster. Mike joined us at the exit, and we all went boing boing on ToT.
