Trip Report Yayyy here we go!!

Hi everyone! So after getting doubly-excited (is that a word?) reading along with @Tuvalu and @littleroo TRs, we decided to see if we could get a room at the best place in the world!!! We did!! We are going to be in our happy place the first week of November staying at our fav hotel, the POFQ!!! This is going to be a combo anniversary (36 yrs Sept.) and my birthday (Dec) for us. Don't ask how old please! lol You are only as old as you feel.
The "we" are my always super DH and myself. We don't put up a lot of selfies--DH is kinda shy. (You can ask @Mr Ferret 88 about that.) We have one married DD. We have been taking numerous "just us" trips for a while now.
I guess I had better tag some people otherwise they are going to be upset with me: @Mr Ferret 88, @littleroo, @epcotisbest, @Sans Souci, and please let me know if I forgot anyone!
I will add plans as we get them set in stone. We usually don't get adrs and just wing it.
Ahhhh I am soo happy!!! :D:happy::D

Today was a full day. We went to 3 parks. First, we went to HS and did our FP. It wasn't full so we did star tours twice. We did Muppets and then TS where my DH beat me.
Then, we decided that we would try to get a lunch res at Coral Reef at Epcot. We had no problem. I got the mahi mahi. It was delicious. (Will download pix later) DH had the shrimp and grits and thought it was great too. We walked around the F&W festival. The crowds were a bit larger here. My DH got a dark beer from Brazil. It tasted like a Guinness.
We looked for another FP and got a sunrise safari at AK. It was pretty awesome. The sunrise was gorgeous with pink, red hues. Can't wait to go back to walk some more at night. A new experience.
Took bus to DSprings to find dinner. Picked up California rolls. They wee good. Took boat back to room. Feet need a rest. 12.8 miles today according to my iPhone!
Tomorrow-MK. Good night! Ps weather is perfect!!

It is so easy to walk 12 + miles in WDW. That is what we averaged, my feet ached too. Hope you are having fun!

Today is Halloween! We had a great day. Headed to MK to use our FP for Buzz, Splash Mtn, and 7DMT. Walked right into Buzz when we got there, then used FP. Everyone else was watching a show in front of the castle. I beat my DH the first time but he killed me the second time.
Splash was fun! I always sit on the left and get soaked. Guess what? I sat on the right and still got soaked! At least it was hot today so I dried quickly.
We got lunch at Friar's Nook-BBQ chicken Mac & cheese. It was so good! But make sure you are hungry. It is a lot!
After lunch, we walked around enjoying our day before getting on 7DMT. I love this ride! It is just too short!
Since we had used our 3 FP, we tried for one in Epcot. We actually got a 5:30 for Soarin'! This is my fav ride. I was really looking forward to the new one. We both absolutely loved it!! I like it better than the original. It is just beautiful! I got teary seeing the Eiffel Tower. Bucket list!
We are really lucking out getting dinner res last minute. Got a 6:30 at Nine Dragons. I got the honey chicken and a Jade Beauty cocktail -vodka, melon liqueur, etc. A very good drink. DH got the Fried rice and a Tsingtao beer. He liked both.
We came back to the resort to see what was happening since Halloween celebrating was going on.
Here are pix from our day. IMG_4456.JPGDecorated our window.
