I have loved my solo trips in the past, but must admit I am dissappointed to be going solo this Oct :sad1: I was supposed to be taking DD with me but looks like she won't be able to get the time off work :sad2: But...I am still going to go ;)

I have never been to the Wine&Food Festival before. Has any one done any of the special lunches or dinners solo before? I am wondering if I'd feel out of place at the Party of the Senses or Lunch and Learn etc?? What do you think? I will go to MNSSHP for sure :) I went solo to a couple of the MVMCP's last Dec and had a great time.

So what do you think? What do I need to know for Oct?

but once you get there, you'll be into the swing of things!! Have never done any of the specialty meals at the F&W Fest, but sounds like a fun thing, especially if you're solo.

But the best thing about the F&W Fest is just wandering around the WS, sampling different foods and drinks from around the world. There are also some great seminars that take place at this time!!

We'll be there the first few days of Oct. - maybe we can hook up for some "grazing"!!! :teeth:
 
Travelin' tigger -"Grazing" sounds good to me :cool1: Thanks for the kind offer to meet up, but looks like we'll miss each other if you are going early in Oct? I will not be arriving until the 16th. I always love walking around the WS so this should be "extra fun" .

go look on the Dis meet board and see about joining a meet while you are there.

then you get to meet the best people on the internet - US!!!!

If you do it early and make friends with someone you can arrange to meet them later in your trip.

have a great one!
 

Hey katypop - Remember me? I should be around during your visit and would love to meet up for some "grazing" if you'd like the company. :cool1:

spiceycat-you are right...you all are the best people on the internet :goodvibes I have done a few meets now and have enjoyed them all. When it gets a little closer and I've hopefully booked a couple of special events at Epcot, I'll see if there are any meets happening on my "free" days.

Taswira :wave2: Of course I remember you! I'd love to get together with you again. We shouldn't have so much trouble connecting this time :rolleyes:
I'll send you a pm.

If you are in the WORLD by the end of Sept. till 10/2 and don't mind 2 crazy Adults... hmmmmm but mom said we (me and my sister) don't really qualify as adults) you're very most welcome to join our upcoming food trip to the WORLD. And hopefully we get to meet you too TASWIRA :)
 
Sorry Kathe, I take all the blame for that goof-up. Sorry to hear your DD can't make it (wanna take me instead?) :rotfl: . But here's wishing you have a wonderful time.
 
My Dad and I will be there from October 18-23 and are planning to attend the Party for the Senses on the 22nd. We've never been to that before, but if you'd like to try it and want someone to "sit with" :) you're more than welcome to join us.

Actually, my DH said he wanted to sit out this next trip and my Dad said he wouldn't mind joining me, or I'd be solo for this trip as well.

Thanks so much for the kind invitation to join your crazy group :crazy: but unfortunately I won't be arriving until Oct 16th :sad2:
Hope you have a great food trip :cool1:

I'd love to take you Cassie :) Are you going back any time soon?
By the way, I'm sure I must share some of the blame for our "meeting mix-up", glad we all got together in the end and that we were all :teeth: :teeth: :teeth:

Thank you for the kind offer, we just might get to meet up :goodvibes
I think Oct 22 is the only night during my stay that Party for the Senses is taking place, so if I do get lucky enough :wizard: to get a ticket I just may be there that night.

Kathe, I may be able to swing a few days just to keep you company for Food and Wine!! It would be a great hardship for me to spend a few days at WDW, you know, but if you need company, I would be willing to make the effort!

:)

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
By all means let me know if you can "force" yourself to make a trip while I'm there :) It would be fun to arrange a meet or two. Have you been during this time of year before? Done any of the dinners or parties solo? I will be in the world from Oct16-27 :teeth:

You are all making me feel so much better about this trip :goodvibes

Kathe
 
It would be my first time at Food and Wine, another 'excuse' to visit....

:)
 
bavaria-does that mean you haven't been to MNSSHP either? Oops :rolleyes: did I just give you another excuse to visit in Oct ;) If you do make the trip maybe you'd like to join me at MNSSHP. I'm going on two different nights, I don't want to miss a thing!

Kathe
 
Uh oh. How could I have missed MNSSHP all these years? Now I will really need to go...... :)

That should go on the 'excuses to visit WDW' thread I started awhile back.

My excuse for this month is that I REALLY need a haircut and my hair salon is at CSR. That merits a trip, doesn't it???

You can adopt me for the week! I can be your Adopted Disney Daughter!

LOL Amy :earsgirl:
Seems I have all sorts of DD "wannabees" here at home too.Quite a few of my df and co-workers have offered to take her place, but I've decided the extra spending money will be spent on me :teeth: I'm thinking I can attend a lot of events for the cost of her airline ticket and food budget for a week!
