Trip Report Shortest Retirement in History?

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!

I love Boulder Ridge Lodge and can't get over the amount of water around that area!! I hope the Poly damage was minimal as we're arriving next weekend! I'm glad Em is getting the chance to enjoy all that Halloween has to offer at WDW! Have a magical time together. I so wish our schedules coincided this trip!
Pictures don’t do the water quantity justice. The only damage we saw at Poly was roof damage on Aeotearoa longhouse near the new tower. Hate that we are missing you by thismuch.

Sunday, con’t

We had a fantastic day and the weather couldn’t have been any better.

A few highlights -

Seven Seas Lagoon/Bay Lake water levels are as high as we’ve ever seen. Not much “shore” anymore, especially by the Copper Creek Cabins!

Did you get wet on Tiana? We got soaked.
