Just an intro to our longest trip yet. Usually it's 2 weeks but since our grandson, daughter and son-in-law are going to be with us for the first 7 nights of the trip we will in a 2 bedroom at Copper Creek and after they leave me and the wife will be in a 1 bedroom at a Riviera for 9 nights.
We are very excited since this is our grandson's very first introduction to Disney World and
we are ecstatic to be taking them with us. Plus this is our daughters First trip back with us since she was 15.
Here is the cast of the crew:
ME 53 Jason (author)
Wife 44 Patty
Grandson Gavin almost 3yo
Daughter Kaitlin 32
Son-in-Law Dan 30
As you all know every trip I like to focus on one particular food item. In past trips I've focused on pickles, burgers and bread puddings of Disney. This trip we're going to do something a little bit healthier and focus on salads of Disney cause why not.
Also banana breads, since they are a few to be had and not focused into yet.
Of course there will be many treats and many burgers and of course pickles along the way, so have no fear.
Lots of snacks, Food & Wine festival booths and quick serve which will not be mentioned until the final trip report.
And for anyone who has not read my many fulfilling trip reports, brush up buttercup lots of reading and drooling....
ALL PAST TRIP REPORTS
A quick video review of salads, that's right SALADS. Got to balance out out the trash foods eaten, 16 nights is SO long.
GREENERY MMMM
