Emma's birthday party looks like fun! And I like that you had leftover cake for breakfast ... that really is the best breakfast ever.
Sounds like you had a good time at Disney Springs! (And with every TR I read, I realize that I really should stop in at Jock Lindsey's on my next trip, even if I don't want to drink, just to see it).
Also ... Peter is clearly my spirit animal. I also wear bandaids on my bug bites for extended periods of time.
I love the MegaMeet registration pictures! I was trying to follow along on social media during the event, but still ... it's always nice to see more pictures. And that MagicBand cover is awesome.
I mean, the day after your birthday while on vacation seems like the best time to have cake for breakfast
yeah, we didn't get to wander too much in Disney Springs but was nice to check out and they did do a great job - the "springs" area is really nice
haha, I'll let him know about your bond with him
Thanks! Definitely more MegaMeet pictures to come .. it was sometimes a little awkward to try and get pictures of people without bothering them/looking like a creeper
I have not been since the transformation into Disney Springs. They were just building the garages when I was there last. The parking system does seem very good and much easier than the old lots.
Cool! I like when places have quirky touches like that. I have never had an ice sphere in a drink but I keep seeing them pop up from time to time. I get the impression the ice stays frozen longer that way? I keep seeing a Death Star ice sphere mold online that is tempting.
Maybe plain, but it's great they are willing to try Asian food at all. My youngest won't try anything like that, although I've never tried her with just plain noodles.
That can happen. I suffered the same thing when I met Pete last year in Nova Scotia. I had no idea what to say and ended up repeating the same thing three times
It was great that you attended. I'm looking forward to hearing more about the meet.
I've heard good things about that resort as well. I looks impressive, especially for a family.
We avoided the area for a while due to the construction - and while there is still some going on it is pretty darn nice at Disney Springs now. If I was a local I think I would hang out there quite a bit
Supposedly it is a really hard process to get the crystal clear ice spheres (was talking to the bartender the next time I went in) as they have to be frozen slowly from the inside out or something - otherwise they wine up hazy. They had them at Carthay Circle in
Disneyland but they had to have them imported or something
Usually my kids do ok with Asian food - they like Pad Thai a lot (we just tell them it is peanut noodles). I think they were just full from the rock shrimp and the drinks and busy with the origami and stuff
I did a bit later with team members later - chatted with Kevin a bit after the scavenger hunt ... but that is for a future update!
The resort was great for families - we saw a number of large families / family gatherings there having cookouts and stuff. With the three kids and being there for a full week, just would be tough in a regular hotel room - we like having the space
Cake for breakfast is perfectly acceptable on vacation!
I love sensors in parking garages. We have those in a nearby city, and there's even an app that keeps the information updated at every garage. Makes traveling a lot easier!
Looks like a fun time at Disney Springs. Those fans at the hangar bar and the forks at Morimoto are awesome. How great that the server brought out extra boba balls for Emma.
I get the tongue tie when encountering the podcast crew. I've met Teresa twice now and each time I've had no idea what to say. Luckily, Alex is chatty and came up with amusing topics to talk about.
Wouldn't lunch in the studio be completely awesome? Those are some lucky folks!
It's so hard when you've got several kids to decide whether or not to sacrifice the space and money and stay onsite at Disney or to pay a little less and get several bedrooms offsite. I'm sure you guys appreciated having a kitchen and a living room, even if the place was a bit outdated. (Isn't it funny how a little thing like USB plays a role in your opinion of a place?)
If you ever do make it over to Munich let me know. We could have a DISmeet up in Europe!
I agree that cake for breakfast is allowed on vacation - especially when it is the day after your birthday!
Oooh, that's cool about the app. Definitely makes things easier ... just wish we knew beforehand what the best floor to park on was
The server at Morimoto Asia was great ... really set the tone for amazing CM interactions we had all trip - really the best we have had on any trip
I just don't know what to say as I don't want to come off like Chris Farley with "remember that time on the pod cast when you called the food at Liberty Tree Tavern 'Soup Kitchen Thanksgiving'? Yeah, that was cool"
With the kids it was hard to bid on a lot of the experiences but I am sure they all had a blast eating int he studio
For us, with the three kids and strollers and stuff, the space is worth it ... plus with having the time share the cost is lower. Be nice to mix in an on-site stay one of these trips though. I think it might have just stood out to me as during the trip down (and back up) nearly all the hotel rooms had some sort of USB plug and other more modern conveniences so the fact this place didn't have them made it seem outdated (even though it is really rather new)
Definitely will let you know if/when in the area !
This cracks me up! 
Ha, of course. You always hear about that free juice and you were SO close. Glad you got your Sunpass, though.
Super Nana seems pretty cool! 
I really just wanted to use that smilie!
