Trip Report SummerPalooza: When 1 resort reservation morphs into 5 resorts

We have had a few trips this year that were odd for us. The trip where my family had to end their vaction but I stayed on for 3.5 more weeks. I didn't even book a return ticket. Never did that before. My April/May Flower Trip Report: https://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/the-one-way-ticket.939721/#post-8162457

This report will start out mostly of semi in-the-moment of the day posts at least for the first half of 3 weeks as we all will be arriving at different points. Like the above report I am not overly wordy but enjoy posting photos of WDW and Food along with adult beverages. Sometimes a tad odd to me behaviors in the parks.

This trip kept expanding in days and as a result resorts this time for reasons I will get around to explaining later, for now mostly photo's of the day. Hope you enjoy.

EDIT: Most of these photos will be Apple Live photos for those of you with Apple devices.

As Space Mountain is being reimagined and will be forever altered if it survives after Tron is established as we know it anyhow some of the concept models I hope will remain. I love the Original thoughts had a Gondola for WDW in the 1960’s and 1970s. Unique was Adding 2 churches. These are imagineers I would love to hear them explain the concept details of years past

The dining plan at Disney now includes an alcoholic credit for QS. My wine in theory was 5 ounces from a tap vs the standard single serve mini bottle at most venues. Note, the juice box is 6 ounces and the wine in theory is 5 ounces. I question that with the wine. 😕

My favorite seasonal dessert It was to be an exclusive for the Halloween party but it is available all day.

Maleficent Dessert – Storybook Treats
Lime soft serve ice cream was so flavorful The black chocolate cone had a nice chocolate flavor and the chocolate was good on top. The purple sugar made it more Halloween-y. So so yummy 😋

Been thinking of you and @Goofyernmost all day. Hope you’re both safeView attachment 313755
Can't speak for @93boomer, but, everything is fine with me. Looks like we might have dodged a bullet here in Raleigh. Today the wind has been a little stronger then usual, but, nothing to worry about and it has rained on and off, mostly off. We still have a couple of days of rain in the forecast so we aren't completely out of the woods, but, I think we will be OK.

Thank goodness. Very happy to hear.
Be well.

Well we are home and I'm not happy about it. Going to scroll through this report and see what I posted and what I skipped 'cause quite honestly it is now a wondrous blur. Will keep adding as a recap to what I didn't have the time or mostly the energy to post during the trip as we didn't have a lot of down time. But so much fun was had.

I'm glad you got a new one. Was it the blueberry thing? I really wanted to try that this past visit but we never made it to Satuli.

Yes it was the Blueberry Cheesecake Blob and the smear is yummy too. Try it, you can always just stop in for dessert. I've had the chocolate one too, the world knows my love of chocolate but at Satuli the Blueberry is so much better than the chocolate.

The two rooms of queues when entering Thr Seas is rough. The first room was Originally for the Circlevision preshow long before Nemo invaded the Pavillon. So zigzagging

Now you just leave that empty queue and move to the next one. That one is really very dark for a queue.

Still have yet to bond with Nemo attraction but at least it leads to fishes and Crush.

My favorite part is the end when you hear "In the Big Blue World". I really love that song.:)
