Welcome home Glenn! Sounds like we were on vacation at about the same time, so I hope you had as much fun as we did!

Which means that @Captain_Oblivious is a full-fledged Glennbo-stalker, since he got them all right in my Guess My ADRs challenge! Good work Mark!

Um...yay? I'm trying to figure out if being a full-fledged Glennbo-stalker is a good thing. :confused3

Always good to stick with the Captain. He's not so oblivious when it comes to games like this.

Actually, this runs closer to a blind squirrel occasionally finding a nut. :squirrel:

Welcome back Glen! sounds like a wonderful trip!

We sure accomplished a lot!

Flossbolna said:
And btw, I am not on Facebook either! So, you are in good company!

That's good to know. But we're definitely in the minority. I don't have anything against it, I just can't bring myself to dive in.

Loved the Glenn in Time Square If New York City cabs are anything like London Taxis

Kind of a crazy place, Times Square. I've never been to London so can't compare, but we didn't have any cab rides that were too bad in NYC.

Yup been there. That;s when I got my surprise peas on the chicken alfredo at WPE. It was not listed....

Then again I have those "hidden" ingredients where I just need the list of ingredients- why is that so hard.

WAVE- good WCC - not so much France - not good Kona- good Coral Reef- so -so

Lauren's are pretty limited, so she can do a decent job on her own of filtering out what dishes she can't have. The things Judy needs to avoid are numerous, so it's a little harder.

Poolrat said:
I guess they always brought her out special bread? They brought it to me even though I do not have gluten issues....

Yes. Especially at Le Chefs de France. Special pre-meal bread, special bread in the onion soup, special bread on the croque monsieur or whatever it was....bread, bread, bread.

Poolrat said:
Rule #1 - Let the allergic person decide.... we know how we react and if we can have it. Don't save me from myself.

Some places I don't tell them the obvious. Soy at the Japanese place -Tomatoes at Via. I know it will be in everything, so I just take something, be more careful on everything else for a bit and adjust accordingly.

Flower and Garden and Food and Wine I still struggle a bit. I wish they would use my idea of the QR code on the kiosk for the ingredient lists. They say the ingredients can change- well then change the list. I can pare down the list of things I might want to try with the list. F & G last year required a person in the kiosk to call the chef, better but luckily there was not a line, it took a good 15-20 minutes.... there has to be a better way.

Looking forward to hearing which of your choices were better than others.

Sorry it's such a pain. But at least Disney takes it seriously, which is more than a lot of places.

Welcome back, Glenn. I'm glad you had a great trip (and left the Boardwalk intact for me). Please be sure to send me a bat signal when you start the TR. Since I removed my reports, I don't come on the DIS very much anymore, but will try to follow along.

Thanks Kathy. Well I recently got my pc memory issues worked out, so I finally downloaded pictures from my camera. Now I'm working on photopass, and trying to get Marlene to write her portion.

Yes, but you've gotten a quicker jump on your report. As I said in my reply to Kathy, I had some pc issues to work out, photopass to deal with (they haven't made that website any better in the 3 years since our last WDW visit), and I need Marlene to write-up the NYC stuff.

Judy says yes, my kids say no. (Not that I asked them.)

It was eerie, I tell ya.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on BWV. Glad you had a nice trip and looking forward to reading about it. I need to keep occupied for seven more weeks till I am back again.

We planned late this year so we are at SSR, but we will be back at BWV next year. Now that they are messing with my beloved VWL I am pondering moving all my points over to BWV. We haven't stayed there for a few years so I hope it is still as great as I remember.

KatMark · Jul 29, 2015

Welcome home. I truthfully can't remember if I did that already or not. :lmao:

I'm so confused since I'm back from my trip and packing up my house. Please be sure to give me a shout out when you start your TR.

MEK · Aug 1, 2015

Awwww - your trip to NYC looks so fun! Now bring on the Disney TR!!!! Send me a bat signal please!

englishrose47 · Aug 2, 2015

Glenn London Cabs are only beat by the Cabs in Mexico !!!!!In Mexico after the first 2 minutes I closed my eyes , in London it would take 5 minutes !!

Steppesister · Aug 3, 2015

Hi Glenn, finally have time to check in and catch up on what I missed. I'll go back and read what I can, but mostly here to say howdy until I can feel a bit more caught up.

englishrose47 · Aug 30, 2015

Bumping this up for Glenn again!!!!!!

MAGICFOR2 · Aug 31, 2015

So this is where he will be when he returns??? I don't see a new TR link.

Me too, please!

Sorry for the delay in replies everyone. Yes, I know my next trip report is long overdue. At this point, I'm trying to spur Marlene to finish writing up the New York portion of the trip. She's now at college, so I'm not sure how much more I'll get out of her. She'll be home this weekend though, so maybe I can get something we'll see. Otherwise, I'll have to just move ahead. Other than that, work has been pretty busy lately, so time is just generally scarce.

Don't think I've been much help there (keeping you occupied on the DIS), sorry about that! I hope your trip is (was?) great!

We liked it, but I don't have any past experience to compare it to. But yeah, VWL is seeing some big changes.

I think you did, but your memory is faltering just because it's taking me so long to get going. I'll send you a signal, don't worry.

I felt fine in the NYC cabs. Probably just a naive tourist though!

Well, I mean you could. But I'd be really sad. LOL! And of course, I'd stalk you anyways and find it. Hope all is well in your corner of life, Glenn. You have a busy season right now (I know, I'm in it too!) Hang in there!

MAGICFOR2 · Sep 10, 2015

glennbo123 · Sep 14, 2015
