Mr. and Mrs. Weak Sauce Go the Distance (a completed Disneymoon TR!)

Yay updates! and games! I was going to put my guesses in, but it looks like I was too late. I'll chime in next time. Did you give the cropped answer yet? It looks like something from DHS near muppetvision, but I think thats already been guessed. I would read the report even if there were no games though. Can't wait till you get to the good parts (aside from getting married and all lol)
 
Yippee! You are finally in Orlando!!

My Cropped Quess: Part of one of the floats in the Pixar Pals Countdown to fun Parade at Hollywood Studios
 

Ooo, how did you end up storing the cake? I've read bad stories of like, cake that wasn't properly stored that gave it that freezer burn taste. It worked out for us anyway because our fridge is SMALL. We have no room for ANYTHING, and we can't afford to have the cake in there too!

If I can remember correctly we wrapped it in aluminum foil, then plastic wrap and then put it in a large freezer bag. It was just as delicious! It did take up a lot of space though so I understand how it wouldn't fit in your freezer if space is limited.

This is why I love your TRs so much. You really take us on a journey with all your "random" photos and thinkings that occurred. So much fun!
Seriously, I love SkyMall. DH & I always pick out random things we say we are going to buy one day when we have an abundance of money :lmao:.

Cropped: I know this one! Its right outside MuppetVision 3D and it says something like "do not look up" or something to that effect. Darn I wish I could remember what it says!

 
Wow! So many great updates - I feel like I was actually at your wedding! Beautiful pictures! The dancing looked like so much fun! Thanks again for sharing with us!

I'm going to have to stay on top of you TR if I want a chance at any points, lol!

The kids always want to fly to Disney, but it's so much cheaper for the 4 of us to drive. :drive: I'm glad your pilot finally arrived and flew you safely to Orlando! :goodvibes
 


Lol I got a kick out of this update because I had no idea that there was something called Skymall and the products were hilarious, I can definitely see why that was entertaining too you.

I'm gonna guess Journey into your imagination although I honestly have no idea on this one:goodvibes
 
Hmmmm...Toy Story Mania? (I'm really bad at guessing games :upsidedow)

I think it's funny what you said earlier about the smoothie thing. I would NEVER expect to get anything when we were out anywhere when I was a kid (and was never asked what I preferred or wanted on the off chance anything was ever purchased :) ). Heck, when my Mom made us our lunches, she would take twin wrapped Little Debbie cakes and separate them so my brother and I both had one. It's funny now, like when we go to WDW or Busch Gardens and I buy a treat and I'm so excited that it's all mine and I don't have to share :lmao:.

I hate flying! I've flown so much (I dated someone for two years long distance and flew almost every weekend. Yuck.) and have always hated it. I'm not afraid of anything, I just hate having zero control over my luggage, eating/drinking, and when I'm able to get anywhere (worst ever: I was stuck in a layover at the Boston airport for 12 hours and couldn't go anywhere because my flight kept getting delayed for just an hour at a time and you had to go out through security to get to the food areas). I tried to convince my fiance to take the Amtrak down to Florida (because we drove last year [well my parents did, we just rode] and he said it was so long and boring), but he's all about the fastest way to get anywhere.

It does seem wacky to be part of TSM, but that's not where the picture was taken. Good guess!

Haha, we totally grew up the same way. No WAY would we have gotten snacks as kids! And there were times I wanted stuff, but I knew better than to ask. I didn't feel like I was deprived or anything though. It just seemed very frugal and practical. Why buy a drink when we had drinks in the cooler in the car? Haha, stuff like that. And the snack thing at theme parks? Oh man, that's EXACTLY how I feel! My mom still doesn't like getting snacks and such, so like when we went to get dole whip floats, I bought one for her too because I knew she wouldn't want to get it herself. At WDW, I'm willing to spend the money to enjoy my time (well, at least on snacks that you know you can't get elsewhere!).

Yeah, I worry about luggage stuff too! That's why I do "enjoy" driving because when we're hungry, we stop. It's kinda a lot easier to deal with mentally even though the ride itself is crazy long. Amtrak was fun though because there was no time that I HAD to stay awake (like keeping Howard company while it was turn to drive). It was LONG though, but I think it's still a great option to have!

I think that is outside Muppet Vission 3D. It is that 'sculpture face thing made up of stuff.' Hee hee! That is the best way I can describe it! :rotfl:

I LOVE the Bigfoot garden sculpture!! My daughter and I love all sorts of weird things like that. Last spring break, we took a road trip to Miami and stopped at the Bigfoot research center. Yes, it does exist! I have pictures on Facebook to prove it! :)

You are correct! Woohoo, you got a weak sauce point!

Haha, you and my brother would get along so well! that sounds like something that he would want to see!

I have that same shirt! I plan on bringing it for our Disneymoon in August! I think it's boring sitting in the airport.

I love that shirt! I bought it a while ago, but I wasn't sure if I should wear it before I got married. But then I figured, I AM going to live happily ever after, so why not?!? I like that it's not crazy Disney because my other shirts with Mickey and Minnie on them are! It works for my dress down days at work (not to say that I haven't worn my Mickey and Minnie ones to work too!).

Tough one...I have no idea...a sculpture for Laugh Floor Comedy Club? :confused3

I do not like flying, neither does DH...so we drive.

Skymall looks very entertaining though...especially the Bigfoot statue. :lmao:

You made it to Florida, Yay! :cool1:

Good guess with Laugh Floor! It's not where this picture was taken though.

I'd totally drive every time except for the fact that it takes FOREVER, and it always cuts into our actual vacation time. It'd take like, a day and a half to get there and another day and a half to get back so instead of enjoying our honeymoon or vacation, we'd be in the car for 3 days. I wasn't going to take off work and provide lesson plans for 3 days of driving so I just HAD to suck it up and get on that plane!

Haha yeah, SkyMall is one of the more interesting catalogs to flip through!

Dang it! I don't know what the picture was and I was too late for the character scramble, though I DID figure it out and it was fun!! I might have to start doing games on my PTR/TR to encourage more posts. I like to pretend that hundreds are reading and just not posting :thumbsup2

I HATE flight delays, it drives me insane!

I also always wonder if certain people are on DIS when I see them in airports. I never go ask them because I don't want them to feel like I am stalking them!

Glad you made it to MCO in once piece!

Haha, I think the same way you do. I like to pretend there are tons of people following my TRs! I do follow a LOT more TRs than I actually comment on (about 2x as many TRs that I don't write on) just because I don't have the time to keep up to date. I read them when I can and bookmark it on the page I get up to. I tried to subscribe to your blog, but I can't figure out how (like the follow button or Google friends?).

Yeah, unless a flight delay gets me out of work or something, then I don't want to deal with it, haha. It was interesting looking at all the people going to Orlando and wondering where they were staying. The family I was watching put on their ME tickets on their luggage while we were waiting there (I don't know why they were doing it there since they weren't going to check them in or anything). I wanted to peer over to see where they were staying!

My guess is Muppetvision? The blue fuzzy thing is throwing me off.:lmao:

I love SkyMall! It's so fun to look at all the silly kitschy things in there, and I almost always find something that my little brother would love!

Sounds like you arrived safely, interested to see if you found the ME with no hassles-I always get lost. :rotfl:

You made a correct guess! Good job!

Looking at SkyMall is way more fun when you have someone to laugh with and point out the most ridiculous products! It's the kind of catalog that makes you think you need something even though you've been living perfectly fine without it all this time!

Haha, I was so worried about getting lost while looking for ME because I read about it ALL the time on people's TRs, but you'll have to stay tuned to see if we make it there easily or not!

Yay updates! and games! I was going to put my guesses in, but it looks like I was too late. I'll chime in next time. Did you give the cropped answer yet? It looks like something from DHS near muppetvision, but I think thats already been guessed. I would read the report even if there were no games though. Can't wait till you get to the good parts (aside from getting married and all lol)

I hope you get a chance to guess at an answer to get some weak sauce points! Yup, it is Muppet Vision! I didn't post the latest scoreboard yet. We'll be on property very soon! Haha, I do have an update in the airport and then one on ME so it might be a few updates from now though.

Yippee! You are finally in Orlando!!

My Cropped Quess: Part of one of the floats in the Pixar Pals Countdown to fun Parade at Hollywood Studios

I don't remember the last time we got Orlando so quickly! Haha, in my old TRs, it usually takes a couple of updates before we get to Florida because I take pictures during the whole ride from NY to FL!

Ooo, good guess! I actually haven't officially seen the parade at Hollywood Studios. I really should because it'd be so cute to see all the Pixar characters!

If I can remember correctly we wrapped it in aluminum foil, then plastic wrap and then put it in a large freezer bag. It was just as delicious! It did take up a lot of space though so I understand how it wouldn't fit in your freezer if space is limited.

This is why I love your TRs so much. You really take us on a journey with all your "random" photos and thinkings that occurred. So much fun!

Cropped: I know this one! Its right outside MuppetVision 3D and it says something like "do not look up" or something to that effect. Darn I wish I could remember what it says!

Ooo, all those layers make sense! Glad it worked out for your cake! I think when our one year anniversary comes, we'll just have to go buy a cake. You know, since we couldn't save ours. Mmm, more cake. HAHA.

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoy my TRs. I don't quite know why I think it's so important to share all my thoughts about products in SkyMall, but it interests me, so I think it might interest others too! Haha, I guess it does!

Correct! It is from Muppet Vision!

Wow! So many great updates - I feel like I was actually at your wedding! Beautiful pictures! The dancing looked like so much fun! Thanks again for sharing with us!

I'm going to have to stay on top of you TR if I want a chance at any points, lol!

The kids always want to fly to Disney, but it's so much cheaper for the 4 of us to drive. :drive: I'm glad your pilot finally arrived and flew you safely to Orlando! :goodvibes

Thank you, and you're welcome! I once said to Howard that it'd be way more fun to have my DIS friends at the wedding instead of a lot of the people that were actually there. Haha, I know that's bad, but I know a lot of you guys more than I know his relatives who live in Canada, Texas, and Hong Kong!

There are advantages to driving too. I like having the freedom to go off property to get yummy food for a lot cheaper! Howard and I were talking about our next trip if we were to ever stay on property again. We'd probably want to rent a car too to get to restaurants. We LOVE Sanaa now, and we can't imagine having to deal with all the buses just to get there!

Lol I got a kick out of this update because I had no idea that there was something called Skymall and the products were hilarious, I can definitely see why that was entertaining too you.

I'm gonna guess Journey into your imagination although I honestly have no idea on this one:goodvibes

Haha, you are missing out on SkyMall!!! They have a website, but there's just something about taking a look at all the wacky products as a distraction on the actual airplane.

It's not Journey to Imagination, but good guess!

Weak Sauce Points Scoreboard

I realized I should post the full photo when someone gets the answer to Cropped so you have a better idea of what part of WDW we were in! This is the full photo for Round 1 when the answer was Backlot Studios Tour.

Round 3: Cropped was OUTSIDE OF MUPPET VISION 3-D - yay to jane2073!
I'm sure most of you have seen this wacky thing over the fence. I remember the first time I saw it, I was so entertained by it because it was right behind Streets of America! I'm still learning a lot about the DHS details. As a hint, the next Cropped that I post will NO be from DHS!

So glad you finally made it there safely. I have no guess on the picture. I am really bad at games. I also wanted to add I really enjoy the details you are putting in your report. It really is fun to read.

Can't wait to hear what happens next; food or straight to the resort? Can't wait to find out.
 


I didn't feel like I was deprived or anything though.

Exactly! I think I appreciate those things now because of how I was raised. Things and treats feel more special and I think I will ALWAYS look at $5 like it's a lot of money. Plus, it's just the way it was, so it wasn't like I knew any different, I thought all kids lived the same as I did.

My fiance recently went on a quick overnight trip to SC and brought me back the SkyMall magazine :lmao:. He knows the way to my heart! One of the coolest things I ever wanted in Sky Mall was a framed picture of the night sky on an exact date, like a wedding date or birthday.

One of the things that always cracks me up in Sky Mall is the big triangle pillow thing you can lean forward and sleep on while flying. I think I would crack up if I ever sat beside someone who pulled one out and start blowing it up.

Hopefully you can enjoy the other games! I'll be posting a round of Character Scrambler in my next update!

I'm glad you like all the details! It takes me some time to write the updates, and I like putting down as much as I can remember. You'll find out what happened after we landed in the next post!

I agree! I do think that $5 is a lot of money! When my students spend their money in the vending machine, I just cringe. They'll spend maybe like, $1.50-$2 for a drink and a snack, and I keep thinking (and sometimes say to them), "Just bring your own drink and snack!!!" I relate everything to crafting, and I know what I can get for $1!!! Of course, if they have the money, it's because their parents give it to them or they have it from birthdays or whatever, so I can't really do anything about it. It just baffles my mind! But then again, some parents end up getting their kids the latest phones and gadgets so what's $1.50 to the kids?

HAHA, I had to tell Howard about your fiance getting you the copy of SkyMall! We both also remember that triangle pillow! I had said it'd be so funny if that guy got either the aisle seat or the middle seat. Which way do you face?!? I mean, when you fall asleep leaning back on your chair, you're not forcing anyone to look at you, but that pillow puts you on display for all to see! Hilarious!
 
Ugh, so annoyed because I just lost my whole typed out reply. Okay, here goes again.

I was a bit flabbergasted to find that when I logged on and decided to try catching up on your TR, thinking it wouldn't be too bad since there was only 10 pages, I had no idea how many updates you had posted. Crazy.

Here comes the comments (again)

Love all the wedding photos. Perfection. Looks like it was still a wonderful day and a beautiful ceremony, even though you didn't want all the attention. Looks like it turned out fun.

Love, love, love the Luke & Lorelai shout out on the invitation. :thumbsup2:thumbsup2 Speaking of GG, do you watch the new show Bunheads on ABC Family? Reminds me a lot of GG. And do you know that the show Hart of Dixie on the CW uses the Stars Hollow set? ;)

Love the fuchsia flats. So cute and they look comfy. Love it.:thumbsup2

You are amazingly talented with your crafty skills. I know who I am coming to if I need something cute like that.

Wedding woes - I sympathize. I know how hard it was to juggle having the things you want with the things the families wanted. I knew there were just certain things that I couldn't avoid with his family. They are very traditional.

Homemade Egg Mcmuffins are yummy. As a matter of fact, I think I now need to get some English muffins for breakfast to make that soon.

your airplane story is why I like to travel Jet Blue. Built in TVs and snacks galore.
 
Oh my gosh, McGriddles are my guilty pleasure. Anytime I just feel the need to comfort myself with food I go get a sausage McGriddle with no egg. SO GOOD!

Boo to delayed flights! On our way home from our honeymoon John and I got stuck in the Atlanta airport for TWELVE hours. Ugh. That was awful!

I'm glad to see you guys kept yourselves so entertained, though! I have been cracking up at your pictures and your SkyMall discoveries!

AHHH I've got to get better about keeping up with these Weak Sauce points!

Aww, that stinks! I hate when that happens and I lose a post. Since it's the summer for me, I can post a lot more often than I did with my previous trip reports. Plus, I finally figured out a better way to upload my photos and Howard's photos without having to sort through them when I want to post something.

I'm so glad that the wedding is over! There was so much going on that you know already, like the tea ceremony and all that. Oy, it caused a lot of stress!

I'm hoping to do more crafty things like that in the future! I love cards, but I think the 3-D things are so much fun too!

I hope to travel JetBlue next time! Howard felt bad that he didn't book that. They had flights around the same time for the same price, but he didn't realize it or something like that.

Oh my gosh, McGriddles are my guilty pleasure. Anytime I just feel the need to comfort myself with food I go get a sausage McGriddle with no egg. SO GOOD!

Haha, it's 12:07am, and now I'm craving a McGriddle. They really are the perfect definition of a guilty pleasure!

Oh man, I'm glad our delay was NOTHING like your 12 hours!

Weak Sauce Points will be up for grabs in just a moment!
 
Dipping My Way to Happiness

When we landed, I was beyond thrilled because I was so done with being on the plane despite it being less than 3-hour flight (oh man, how am I supposed to last on a flight to Disneyland?!?). I was also STARVING! Our first order of business was to get food, but that didn't mean we weren't enjoying the fact that we were ALREADY IN FLORIDA!

49.jpg


It looks so different than the airports in New York and New Jersey!

50.jpg


I was very excited to ride the fake monorail. I just couldn't quite understand how it looked when I saw it in other people's TRs. I was like, um, Tron? Is this the way into the game? Yes, I've seen the original and Tron: Legacy. I married a geek after all.

54.jpg


I decided that this was about the time to start taking video! During our April trip with my family and during the honeymoon, I was trying to get more video than pictures since I know that Howard has the picture part covered. That means you get the privilege of watching my videos and listening to my narration even though I'll probably be giving you a summary of what's in the video anyway ... haha.

Video: Arrival at MCO

It was insanely bright and sunny; we couldn't get over it! We were hoping it wasn't going to be that hot considering it was really nice in April.

55.jpg


This is so fun to examine when you're on your way TO Disney, but when we took the fake monorail back to the airport when we had to return, it wasn't fun at all. It also was very fitting that it was raining then (ooo, spoiler alert, hahahaha).

56.jpg


I specifically waited at to get the front car because I wanted to have a view of the ride. I didn't actually know where it went and all that! They have monorails at Newark Airport, but I've never actually had a reason to ride it. I also remember a lot of DIS kids sitting on this little bench, watching the scenery pass by, and I decided that I would be a DIS kid!

57.jpg


And this is just the start of it, but if you're a new reader, you'll be seeing just how much I love TRACKS! I love ride vehicles on tracks, and that'll definitely be something we try to get on each ride when possible. The fake monorail was no exception!

58.jpg


Video: Riding the Fake Monorail at MCO

I was thinking that on the way back, we'd have a lot of time to kill so we didn't go into the Disney store that was there. We'd have plenty of time to shop during the week. It'd be pretty funny if we let go of some of our hard earned money before even leaving the airport (I mean, other than for food purchaes!).

59.jpg


MORE SUN!

60.jpg


I got a kick out of these moving sidewalks here too! It's not like we were tired or anything since we had been sitting during the delay and sitting on the plane, but I guess the inner kid just comes out, and these things are just awesome!

62.jpg


It is a perfect opportunity to turn around and get a picture of your HUSBAND though since you don't have to actually walk!

63.jpg


(continued in next post)
 
(continued from previous post)

And then just a few moments later, Howard snapped this picture of me! There was no way we were going to go straight to the Magical Express just in case that ride and check-in took a while. Like I said earlier, we were STARVING! We just wanted to eat! We knew we were going to eat at the airport anyway even if we did arrive on time. I got excited because I saw the food court!

64.jpg


Video: Our First Meal in Florida - Chik-Fil-A

If you watched the video, you heard that we were starting our trip in true Sarah fashion! Our friend Sarah, wdwgirl03 (the only DISer we've met with ... TWICE!), always starts her trip off with Chik-Fil-A! I've seen it so many times that I just knew we had to do the same! The closest one to where we live is actually in New Jersey, and we don't really make trips to NJ just for Chik-Fil-A. I see it a lot driving down to Florida, but we never stop there even though we totally should! I mean, Wendy's restaurants are everywhere. Gotta eat what you don't have as often back at home!

65.jpg


I knew that I wanted chicken nuggets because I am a DIPPER. That's the other thing you need to know about me. I love ride vehicles on their tracks, and I love dipping my food! Seriously, I won't want to eat meat because I'm not that big of a fan, but if you give me something to dip it in, I'm all for it. Case in point? 'Ohana. All that meat on skewers? Yuck. Serve it with 3 dipping sauces? Yahoo! Oh man, now I'm in the mood for 'Ohana. I digress.

66.jpg


We ordered a Sprite to share becaue we decided that any time we were having fried food, we'd have a soda so that I wouldn't get sick. What is it with soda and fried food? It just works so well together! Without it, I'd feel all greasy inside, and then I'd end up having tummy trouble or nausea later on. Ahhh, soda. I can't have Coke though, and that's what the person gave us. Whoops! Howard pointed it out, and we got a new one. I was wondering what the guy was going to do with the Coke, but he just poured it into his cup or something and drank it. I was happy that it wasn't going to be wasted.

67.jpg


While we were waiting for our food, I took a picture of our carry-on luggage. We put the tag for AKL with Howard's name on the bag we checked in, and the plan was to save mine for scrapbooking or something since this Disneymoon was the first thing that had my maiden and new last name on it! When we about to the board the plane, the lady at the desk said we were going to have to check it in because there wasn't room on the plane, so we asked if we should put the tag on it. It ended up that we put it on because we thought we had to give it in, but the guy taking the strollers and such closer to the entrance of the plane told us that we should see if there was room and to bring it back if not. Thankfully, we were able to fit it in our overhead compartment without a problem. Too bad though; I would've liked to have kept that tag!

68-edit.jpg


It's okay though. Tag or no tag, I was still Rachel Ninja-Weird!

69.jpg


Where's my food? I'm hungry!

70.jpg


Okay, so you know how I said that I have a thing for ride vehicles on tracks and try to get pictures of it? Howard's thing is light fixtures. I don't quite know why. I guess it's because Disney takes the time to have amazing light fixtures that most guests probably don't notice. A lot of the times he just takes them really quickly though since we're on the move. It's not like he stops to compose a certain shot (haha, at least not if I'm waiting for him).

71.jpg


We finally had our food and were ready to NOM it all!

72.jpg


Howard ordered a chicken sandwich. I wouldn't have minded that as long as I could also get some dip with it too, haha. Even with sandwiches, I like dipping as opposed to putting the sauce ON the sandwich itself. I'm the kind of person who dips her cheeseburgers into the ketchup that was poured onto the plate.

73.jpg


Look at that goodness! So different than the processed stuff that makes up McDonald's chicken McNuggets. Not to say I don't eat that once in a blue moon with plenty of sweet and sour sauce though ...

74.jpg


Is it just me or do waffle fries just seem more wholesome? I don't feel as guilty eating them, as if they're a little healthier than normal fries, haha.

75.jpg


And what dip did I choose? Honey mustard! Yum! I don't really stray far from the typical barbecue, honey mustard, or sweet and sour choices. They're just so classic and so delicious! This one was particularly good. It had more of a mustard taste to it as opposed to the Wendy's sauce. I like to think myself a sauce connoisseur. And by connoisseur, I mean "weird-girl-who-can-go-on-and-on-about-sauce-in-a-TR-about-WDW." If you read "Delicious Indeed," you'll remember I purposely ordered a meal from Chicken Now just because they had a special sauce. Um, should I move on?

76.jpg


A ring picture! My first Chik-Fil-A meal MARRIED!

77.jpg


I like it when restaurants provide reading material. Of course, I didn't read it until just before I typed this sentence.

78.jpg


I didn't finish all my delicious nuggets because I was feeling satisfied. I didn't want to be overstuffed before the Magical Express experience. Don't worry; I don't like letting food go to waste, so I took those bad boys with me for a snack later on! No more dawdling though! With our stomachs filled, we were ready to move one step closer to our destination!

Weak Sauce Points

Round 4: Character Scrambler

Directions
1. Figure out the word or words for each clue.
2. Identify the mystery letter from each clue.
3. Unscramble all the mystery letters to reveal the mystery character, which will be a character in any Disney movie!

Clue #1 (2nd letter)
The statue of Walt holding Mickey's hand is called the __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ statue. Although none of these stories are true according to Disney historian Jim Korkis, many say that Walt is pointing towards the future, the future location of Epcot, the statue of his brother Roy to carry out his dream, or the trains because of his great love of them.

So I saw in my subscriptions you updated with the date 7/6 and I'm like it's not the 6th yet...then I remembered you guys are an hour ahead of us. haha

WOO HOO, you made it to Orlando!!! This update was very exciting! I just love that feeling of first arriving at MCO and getting on the fake monorail. :dance3::cool1::goodvibes As for the flight to Disneyland-ugh, that is a long one. Especially since the 2 times we've gone we've had to fly to Minneapolis and THEN to California.

And YAY Chick-Fil-A! You are right, good thing it wasn't a Sunday-that would've been sad. Like you said, you have to eat what you don't have at home on vacation. Aww man, I could really go for some of those nuggets right now. Yum!
 
Jafar? I need to get out a pencil and paper for these!

I love Chik Fil A, but we don't have any around where I live either. And, I married a dipper, so I understand :thumbsup2

I missed the Gilmore Girls reference before, but I LOVE that show. I watch the reruns on ABC Family all the time. Bunheads is pretty good- not as good as GG -but Kelly Bishop is in it and she's always flawless.

Loved the update, looking forward to more!
 
Yay for Chic-Fil-A!!! :dance3: I eat it WAY more than I should :scratchin (pretend this is the rolling eyes, whistling smiley that I'm too lazy to click on [More] to find, it used to be on the main list to the right!). By the way, if you like Sweet and Sour sauce you should totally try Polynesian sauce at Chic-Fil-A. It's delicious! It's the only sauce I use there now (and I, too, am a dipper. All of my favorite foods have a lot of hand involvement :lmao:).

Way to have restraint (and the forethought!) not to run to Magical Express! I have no patience and would have run there, only to be dying of starvation for the next two hours before I could get somewhere for food.
 
We both also remember that triangle pillow! I had said it'd be so funny if that guy got either the aisle seat or the middle seat. Which way do you face?!? I mean, when you fall asleep leaning back on your chair, you're not forcing anyone to look at you, but that pillow puts you on display for all to see! Hilarious!

I about died laughing reading this! So true! I hate people watching me sleep and I know if someone pulled one of those bad boys out and was facing me while they slept, I would spend the whole flight trying not to stare at him/her.
 
I got Jafar.

I LOVE dipping food too! It is THE reason to go to O'Hana...ah so many choices! :upsidedow When we drive down, we try to avoid places that we have back home too, so we do stop at a Chic-fil-a every now and then...it is pretty good! I remember when you wrote about eating at Cracker Barrel in one of your other TRs--it looked so good that we stopped there when we were driving down for our Disneymoon, now we eat breakfast at Cracker Barrel on every trip, so for that, I thank you! :flower3:

Alright, your bellies are full of chicken-y goodness...off to Disney! Looking forward to more, your TR is like my morning paper. :goodvibes
 
I totally agree about eating where you don't have at home. (Does that sentence even make sense?). We try to eat at familure, yet unique places while traveling.

My favorite Chick-fil-a dipping sauce is the Polynesian. It is sweet but tastes good with chicken and fries. Plus it reminds be of the Polynesian Resort at WDW!:)
