Trip Report Shortest Retirement in History? *COMPLETED*

Justin Bieber lasted 2 weeks.

Tom Brady lasted 40 days.

I, Tuvalu, outlasted them both. Not by much, mind you. Yet if not for the encouragement of some forum friends - along with some unusual circumstances - you wouldn’t be reading this.

Unusual circumstances, you say?

Around Thanksgiving my beloved Woody learned his presence was required at a work conference. In Orlando. At Universal.
Just down the road from Walt Disney World.

Woody said I could accompany him if he drove (rather than flew) to Florida. And that we could leave a couple days early and have some Disney time together.

Well you don’t have to ask me twice!

I’d be on my own during the conference. Since the majority of Universal’s attractions don’t appeal to me, it didn’t make sense for me to buy Uni tickets when I could visit WDW for free with my AP. Being solo, I thought it might be fun to do a live trip report so y’all could be my virtual companions!

Turns out I won’t be alone while Woody is occupied after all. Some friends that you have seen in my previous TRs (and one you haven’t) have offered to play with me. I can’t wait!

Yep, that Zipadee is one clever lady! ( :hilarious: @Zipadeelady)

Sorry for the late response, but it was my pleasure to call you out…!!!!! 😁:hilarious:;)
That bein’ said, the happiest of birthdays Tu ;) you, and I hope y’all really enjoy your TR-less time at WDW…!!! :)
Also, the next time you do decide to do a TR, don’t forget that iPhone camera setting for dark rides…!!! ;)
Again, I hope y’all have a WDW happy birthday BLAST…!!!!!!! :joyfull:

ETA…
Our grandkids are growin’ at light speed…
Emmy and Audrey are well beyond 6 and 3, respectively…somebody make it slow down, please…!!!!! :eek::hilarious:;):)
And I’ll be trusting you to call me out when my senior brain forgets the dark ride setting! 🤣
Thanks for the bday wishes. If you find the way to slow down time please let me know. Grands shouldn’t be allowed to grow up so fast!

No worries in regard to the dark ride setting, as…

And, yea, what is it with the whole passage of time thing becoming exponential as we age…?!!! 🤔:cyclops:
When I was a kid, summer felt like it lasted a year, now it seems like it goes by in about two weeks…!!!!! 🤪🤣

As always, your TR was so entertaining and special for your readers. We so enjoyed having the chance to spend time you and Em in our "happy place"!!! Your attention to detail and honesty in things that are great but also when things don't go as planned makes it even more fun to read. Happy Early Birthday and enjoy every moment together with Woody this week!!!! Wish our trips overlapped but we'll definitely see you in May!
