IT'S RECRUITMENT TIME AGAIN!!!
​

And I'm now taking volunteers for the month of September. Since I have been including two months for each of the Live Thread games and I am already committed through August, I've decided to extend this thread through the month of September.


So if you are planning a trip to either Disney World or Disneyland during any of these dates, please consider doing some live reporting. [/SIZE][/FONT]

Me, me! I'm a little gun shy about saying we're going since we've had two cancelled trips in two years BUT I have a trip booked 9/25-9/30! First time for F&W!

She said, "We made it! Got here yesterday evening. No ADR's so just grabbed a lite meal at the F & G booths."








Tacos de Carnitas (Pork Tacos topped with Tamarindo salsa, served on a flour tortilla with Chicharrón)
& Tostada (Crab tostada served with Chipotle Mayo and Valentina Salsa)


"Both were yummy."











Smoked Beef Brisket with Collard Greens and Jalapeño Corn Bread


"We both got the brisket. It wasn't very photogenic, but it was dark so we didn't care! Meat was tender, greens were interesting and corn bread dry."
