My family are not professional football fans, so we are visiting Animal Kingdom on Sunday. I made an ADR at Yak & Yeti, and it will be our first visit! I will remember to take pictures each time we get food!

MORE UPDATES! MORE UPDATES!
I need my fix please. 23 more days for me! Ooh, but we will be at Disneyland for Golden Horseshoe Revue (or as DBF calls it, Hoop Dee Doo West) tomorrow, so I will try to send you some updates from there.

Yay! We have received some updates and all of them are from hulagirl87. (Thanks, hulagirl! ) She said, "Today we went to Epcot and had lunch at...  Sunshine Seasons  "DH had the porkchop with mashed potatoes and chocolate cake for dessert. He loved the porkchop. It was huge! He said it was very flavorful. The cake was good, but super rich! I had a ceasar salad with chicken and banana cake for dessert. The chicken in the salad tasted a little dry and the banana cake was excellent!"  Les Halles      "We stopped at the new patisserie in France and it was good, but a little disorganized. Not sure where to go and who was being helped already. I got a Napoleon because I have liked them in France before, but this one wasn't good at all. I was disappointed and only ate a few bites. So of course I had to get something from Karamel Kuche in Germany!" Karamell Kuche    "I got the Peanut butter caramel crunch cookie. I wasn't doing well with snacks today because this one wasn't very good either. The peanut butter taste was weird, so again only ate part of it." And then some pics from Epcot...    4 January Game Points Earned + 5 Bonus Points for menu pics, display case pics, and misc. pics

Then another update from hulagirl87. Captain Cook's  She said, "Dinner was at Captain Cook's again. DH had pepperoni flat bread and an apple turnover for dessert. I had the turkey club with chips and a Mickey ice cream sandwich. DH said nothing special about the pepperoni pizza, but he did say that the apple turnover was really good, but he wished that it was warm. My turkey club was pretty good and the chips were nice. Of course the Mickey ice cream gets 2 thumbs up!" 3 January Game Points Earned + 5 Bonus Points for being the only reporter to send updates today

Loved seeing the pictures from the Fantasy. The concierge offerings look amazing. I would love to be on that ship one day.
No complaining from me though- my bags are packed, boarding pass is printed and I'm ready to go. With any luck, I'll be at raglan road later tonight!!

I have made it through 149 pages and I am in awe of all the hard work that you have done to put this thread together, Barb! Thanks to you, and thanks to all the families that have contributed while on vacation! If the thread is still going in September, I'd love to send updates from our trip, Sept 20-28.
