Last Trip? It was until we met Food & Wine -- Recap 2/12

[MissMaryQC]

A belated happy birthday Kathy! Sounds like you had a good day, even if your birthday dinner quite what you wanted. Glad to hear Mark is keeping the position at Target and will still be able to do baseball as well!

We love Splash so much! It's a great ride for the theming, and the awesome drop helps! I live the ride photo, you and Mark look like a couple of kids.

Why doesn't Mary Poppins have a photographer?!? :confused2:

F&W looks good, sorry the steak was so bad. That pudding looked goo-ood! I feel like I'd spend a small fortune at F&W; I love to eat!

Hope you enjoyed your weekend, and that you were able to go to the exhibit!

 

[that's nice]

Only 10 pages behind this time...

Wow... you are meeting random people right and left in MK. You are a celebrity!

Love all your adventures... it was probably a relief to bob and weave through the crowds and lines without 3 small kids in tow.

Loving all your Epcot food pics.. Hopefully we will get back to Food & Wine someday.

A few weeks we decided we shouldn't take Juliana out of school anymore. Then the last few days we have been discussing taking her out of school for a few days next January during marathon weekend. We have issues.

Love the giant photo dump -- so fun to scroll through and see MK and F&W! I could totally go for one of those bread puddings right now, YUM!

Happy New Year!!!

(And Happy Belated Birthday as well apparently!)

Wonderful pictures around Splash

Yay for running into Mary Poppins!

I am going to try that infamous soup one of these trips.

Love the updates! Sounds like you guys were just having fun and enjoying the day. That food looks delish - it's gotta be almost lunch-time, right?

Hi Kathy,

So glad to hear your birthday was good. $500?! That's awesome! Sorry that Mark got called into work on your birthday, but glad they are going to keep him on! That's great news!

Love the pictures of Splash! That's one of my favorite rides for sure!

I'm drooling over your pictures of F&W. Can't wait to go and try that some day!

How very nice of them to allow Mark to stay on part-time AND not schedule him for weekends so that he can still umpire. Sounds like an awesome crew to work with.

Ahhh, more Food & Wine Festival pictures and I'm looking at them right before lunch time. Happens every time.

Congratulations to Mark for getting to keep his job. I'm sure that's a nice bit of relief for both of you!

Oh, and if the weather permits, we are FINALLY going to see the Disney Archives thing at the Museum of Science and Industry on Sunday (it's the last day).

I can't believe you weren't there on opening day!!!

After we finished Splash Mountain, I went for a cigarette break and Mark decided to play...by himself

Did he win?

Kind of brings that chess game in Pirates to mind.

There is never a photopass photographer with Mary Poppins. Do any of you know why? I do.

Ok, I'm waiting...

F&W.... you're killing me. I'd love to try it just once.

 

[eandesmom]

Aw, sad that you didn't get to go to Bob Chin's but it sounds like a lovely birthday and more hours is always good! So glad they found a spot for him after all, yay!

I do not know why Mary Poppins does not have a handler. Is that MP everywhere? I guess she's only in 2 parks but...curious!

Bummer about the filet that does not sound lovely at all, glad the trout made up for it.

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

Happy New Year Kathy! I think I'm all caught up.

Love your photos with the characters. You two always look so happy. And you're getting your rides on; also a good thing.

I'm glad the cheese soup at Le Cellier is still living up to expectations. If I were there during F&W I think I'd just get that over and over.

The reason I've heard for Mary (and Terk from Tarzan too) not having a PP photographer is because every official picture taken by Disney would result in a royalty paid to Julie Andrews or Rosie O'Donnell respectively. It's probably also why we've never seen Giselle from Enchanted as a M&G.

 

[that's nice]

Replies later...but just had to share that I purchased my new Annual Pass today.

Yeah!!!! did you renew or purchase brand new?

Congrats either way!!

 

[Chicago Mo]

Great updates!!! How amazing they are keeping him on.. They just know what an amazing person he is and finally realized they need him!! I am really happy for you guys!!
YAY for the wash and dry coasters! 2 of my favorite coasters! best theme!!!

OK you leaved off in how you know about Mary Poppins and not having a PP and NOT come back with an answer? Damn that Key the the Kingdom Tour! She is practically perfect in every way! then again i had to google the answer..

DELISH food pictures! sorry about the steak! thankfully Ireland was able to bring you back up.

Hat Pictures make my day...


HUGE CONGRATS for you AP!!!

 

[scottny]

So happy to hear Target is keeping him.

Nice Splash Mountain pics. I have not ridden it since they put in the lap bars, always afraid they won’t close.

I have to do Country bears next time, it has been way too long.

Love the Cheddar Cheese Soup.

I am caught up again. Yeah me!!!! LOL.

Yeah

 

[TheMaxRebo]

Glad you had a nice Chistmas/birthday/New Years! Definitely well deserved!

And yeah for the big winnings on the scratch off! That is always fun. Sorry you didn't get your nice dinner in, but Red Lobster isn't a bad consolation

Yeah for Target keeping Mark on! Sometimes things do work out for the nice guy! Glad it will still work around his baseball weekends as well.

Here's to a great 2015!

Can some of your winning magic rub off on me? Please????

I read your update last night at work and got half my post written and then called away urgently. Can't even remember what I wrote last night, but I think it had something to do with several of your PP pictures that I enjoyed so much. You and Mark really know how to get some of the best pics. Wasn't there one with Mary P? Loved it!

Great morning at MK and fun afternoon at Epcot!
