Trip Report Me, Mickey and Medicare!!

Welp, the time has come. You know how the decades are the big birthdays? There is one I have found that seems important to celebrate at the half decade. Yep, 65! I decided if I was going to have to start carrying around a Medicare card that I was going to have a go big or go home party. And I did in one of my favorite places ever, Disney!
As one family member rudely said when I told them of my plans, see my jaw not on the floor. :rolleyes:

Whatever. With fairly short notice, maybe a month or less I decided that I was going to go visit Seth. I moved to Sacramento this year and to say it was stressful is the understatement of the century. My daughter and family were going to Texas for Thanksgiving and with my birthday only a few days before I decided to treat myself. I asked Seth if he minded hanging out with me if he could get off of work and he said sure and was able to get the days.

So, the particulars were-dates, Nov. 20-Nov. 25.
For the first time ever I stayed off site at the Tuscany Hilton as I am saving our DVC points to use in March because the whole family will be going again and staying at the new Poly Towers. (And that takes a whole bunch of points.):oops:
It was just Seth and me.
When I was trying to think of a name for this TR I asked Seth his opinion and he said he didn't mind if only I was in the title as long as he was in the report!😁

I was going to start the report with travel day but it seems all of the pictures that I thought I downloaded have disappeared!
So I will have to use the only photo I can find for this first post, a fairly blurry photopass pic, to start the report off and I will be back as soon as I find the gazillion lost pics!

Ty, it was wonderful!
I am so thrilled you were able to find the Halloween decor, and will be able to (hopefully) recreate the one that you and Gary had. And I'm loving the smiles on both or your faces during this trip report - sooo nice to see! Keep it coming :joyfull:
It was exciting finding the wreath and yes it's good to have a reason to smile. :)

NOV-22 EPCOT DAY!

We started out our day in a similar time frame, getting to the park a little after 9. Seth picked me up maybe 8:45ish. (Love the curb service!)

We were standing in front of this beauty at 9:15.

We had a LL for Remy and were able to take our time walking over and got to enjoy some of the sights.

I took this for @riverside so she could see how strange it was to see the area around Rose & Crown so empty of humans.

I love this whole setting! It looked so pretty with the sun behind it.

The house of rat wasn't too busy, but busy enough to justify the use of a LL.

After that we had a LL for Soarin, but there was time to book and use another LL for The Land before that.
I have a ton of photos of the land because with all of our trips I don't remember seeing it decked out in it's Christmas decorations. The photos are from both Seth and I because we did a right side/left side of the boat photo shoot!

After we exited the boat there was a small cart set up where they were selling little mini plants in containers that you could safely take home. I got my son in law one because he is an avid gardener and the dragon fruit we got him will supposedly live here in Sac. with some care.

After this, we're off to save the galaxy!
