A much delayed trip report...2/28-3/3

Oh, wow, bunless - what a great story about eating at the Napa Rose. That is a great compliment to the chef. He'll probably always remember that. And so will you. If I get the chance I'll try to order the bbq :)

I keep wondering if I go back next week, if someone will be like "it's the crying girl!" lol. Unfortunatly, the bbq dish was on the tasting menu which changes (i think) every week, so I don't know if it will ever appear again.

I love the frames on your pictures.

Thank you! I just like finished looks, no mess.

Ok, Day four...of which I have little memory of...

Our last day, so we packed up and took everything to the bell hop before heading to the magic morning. We had never done Nemo during magic morning, but we did this time. It was very odd, usually I think of magic morning as a time to get alot done in a short amount of time...instead it was like getting one thing done in a long amount of time. I didn't really care for that fact, so next time I think we'll just rely on trying to find the ride at a low wait time sometime during the day.

I did get this lovely photo while waiting in line, though

Doing Nemo first thing in the morning really seemed to throw us off for the rest of our time there. It seemed like we were constantly trying to figure out what to do and going here and there. Not really sure why, other than it threw us off our game. I hardly remember what we did the rest of the day, though. I think we watched the Bootstrappers, because I took this photo while they were singing, which I've wanted to do for a long time, but for some reason never had

I think we went on Winnie the Pooh, but not Splash because we didn't want to be wet when we flew home

We obviously went on Big Thunder...
this is my must-get-each-visit photo

Eventually we made our way back to the GCH and I was able to marvel a bit more at the arts and crafts

I think the highlight of my day was getting this on the first try

All in all, it was a great trip. I think we could have stayed another day easily, just to relax and enjoy the sun. We leave again in a week for another four days...I'm using the excuse that I have the ol Vitamin D deficency and my doctor has ordered me to get sun! lol
I'm looking forward to the food and wine festival as I've never been, as well as the Celebration BBQ and fireworks and finally swimming in the pool!

The end.
 
Wonderful report and photos Kirkland Tutu.
Thanks for taking the time and effort to post it all.
I enjoy a lot of the same things as you do.:)
 
Beautiful report so far. I would love to stay the GCH hotel next time we go. The location can't be beat!
 
I found my signed menu! lol, just as I was starting to pack for leaving tomorrow....

So, the BBQ dish was

Ravioli filled with a Poached Egg, Fresh "Burrata" Mozzarella and Butter Leeks topped with a Frisee Salad, Applewood Smoked Bacon, Braised Radichio and Pine Nuts

paired with Sammarco, "Verve" Negroamaro, Salento, Apulia, Italy 2006



Looking at the menu I forgot all about the multi-failed Tangerine Souffle! It took the pastry chef three tries before it lasted long enough to get to me. Even then, as soon as it was set down it started falling. I thought it was funny. It was still tasty!
