Joining in.
I've been eyeing that corn for a while too.
And, what the heck! Did they stick a wolverine in with the cargo?
The corn was yummy! And hmm... that is a valid thought!
Welcome!
I'm here! Can't wait to read along.....
Miss hanging out with you
Hi Beth! Miss hanging out with you too!
Joining in Paula! I, too, remember the suitcase fiasco from Facebook. What an awful thing! But having met the two of you, I knew you would make the best of it. You probably handled it much better than I would have! This would have been me for sure ...
I loved P37 when Andrew and I tried it last August and am really looking forward to taking Jay there in September. Those skewers may be calling our name!
Looking forward to the rest!
I think we were in a buzzed state of shock! The buzz quickly wore off though! The skewers were fabulous!
Paula, I am in. That really stinks about your DH's luggage. I don't think I would have been as easy going about it. We are driving this time so if anything happens to our luggage it would be our own fault, and that just wouldn't be good! Can't wait to see the rest of your food reviews, it will pass the time until my trip in July.
I think they treated us better because we weren't all yelling and screaming. We are still waiting to hear on if we will get reimbursed for the bigger items.
I'm so excited to follow along! It looks like awesome dining plans!
I can't believe what happened to your DHs bag & belongings! That's nuts.
It was nuts! Thanks for following!
Hey Paula, I'm here and joining in! I love your idea of a hybrid DR with TR details thrown in.
That was such a bummer about Hunter's luggage. I was glad to see that he didn't have to wear the same thing every day.
Welcome Brenda! Ahhh yes... I think we would have definitely been placing a stat order if he was reduced to only one outfit!
I'm here, and looking forward to your report!
PS--if my rocking chair goes missing, I'll know where to look

Welcome Tina! If it was a pair of chairs and I could get them to CO then yes, you should be concerned! Ha-Ha. I would never do that! Thank you so much for the ride to and from the airport!!
I'm back on the boards today and was very happy to see you had started your dining report. Personally, I am glad that you decided to go this route rather than a TR, as I find it hard to remember to check other sections of the boards for updates.
First of all I love your "It's Magical" title.
While I know that you had some less than magical moments, I hope that overall your trip really was "magical" overall. I know that when I last saw you on Saturday night, you were thinking about canceling your October trip but it seems like it is now a "go" again?? Anyway, it was so great to spend time with you and Hunter again. Thank you so much for letting me crash your party.
Your Paradiso lunch looks really good. I need to branch out at DTD and give this place a try, perhaps on my next trip in October. My family visited Splitsville during our Spring Break trip in 2013 and we also had the fries as a snack but we had ours loaded with cheese and bacon. Needless to say, these were a big hit.
So anyway, great start and I'm looking forward to reading more!
Welcome Barb! I think you were there for when the "Magical" first made its appearance weren't you? It was great to spend time with you as well!
I have a feeling we may be trying a few DTD places this time with our resort being SSR for the fall. And yes.. that trip is back on.
I'm here! Can't wait to read more!!!
Welcome!
Amazing reviews so far! Following eek!!! I am so excited for our WDW sept trip!
Thank you! I'm excited for our Oct trip! We love F&W!!
After the not so great start to your trip, with the luggage fiasco, I am glad to see that the lunch at Paradiso 37 was mostly good. We have a big group lunch planned there in October and I just know that we will be trying those skewers, the look lovely. Oh, and maybe a humongous cocktail or two
The cocktails are great! Especially if you are able to share them! The skewers were just full of flavor. Fabulous!
I love your friend's chair. That is adorable. And is that the Brit at SJC that I spy?
They make good bloody mary's!
POR looks so lovely. I am pretty sure I want to stay there one day.
Paradiso 37 wasn't on my radar much -- but that corn and the skewers look SO good. And the ginormous drinks. I could see how that would be a little bit too much sweetness though.
Yes the chair is adorable! Do you know Tina? I think she lives closer to you?? I have not tried the Bloody Mary there but yes I was at the Brit. And actually I have had the Bloody Mary at the real restaurant off Almaden.. is it the same?
Yes, the drinks were good for me but not for Hunter who gets hypoglycemic after too much sugars.
Ok, I'm officially dying over here! We ARE in one of your pictures. That is my family in your first picture! I'm in the process of telling my husband, I "know" them!
Looking forward to your review!!
Okay! That is WAY too funny!!
Great start - Paradiso looks so nice though shame about the leche.
I have
never seen a bag so badly damaged as that bag of your husband's. Unbelievable - I can't even begin to imagine what they had done to that
Looking forward to reading the rest
Yes the Tres Leche was dissapointing but we enjoyed everything else so it was a win for me!
We couldn't believe the bag either!
Hopefully more to be posted soon!
Paradiso 37 is a restaurant I've been eyeing for a while but somehow we've just never gotten around to trying it. I was also very intrigued by Jeri's review of this place and those humongous cocktails. I think we definitely need to check it out.
The Crazy Corn and those skewers look delish! It was nice of your server to bring you another selection when you didn't enjoy the Tres Leche.
Splitsville looks fun! I haven't bowled in years so my score would probably be pretty pathetic but it looks like a fun choice for a Downtown Disney day.
My bowling score was pretty pitiful! A combo of the wrong ball and wrong shoes to start and having had multiple of the HUGE cocktails probably wasn't helping either!
Happily joining in : ) So far the stand out WTH ... I just can't get over your husbands suitcase, wow! Then of course that crazy corn & your biggie cocktail look like something we would love to try. Also I love his type of report style a little trip info and dining reviews make for a nice read along
Yes. the suitcase certainly made an impression! and not a good one! Paradiso was very good! Hoping to visit again!
I'm glad you like the report! Hopefully more soon!!
