Welcome everyone to my latest and greatest (hopefully) trip report! Join me in reliving our trip down to Disney for the food and wine fest, and of course all the additional fun Disney has to offer!
This was another longer trip for us, ten days total. We keep booking these long trips in hopes the F&W events will come back, but so far no luck. Of course next year since we’re only going for a few days they’ll probably bring them back!
Once again, this year we stayed at the Yacht Club, well for most of the trip. After making the original booking I decided I wanted to come down a day early since I have an easier time taking days off than my mom, so booked a night at the Dolphin. Of course, soon after I booked an extra night for myself, my mom decided she wanted to come down early as well, which was fine by me, it’s fun to have her around!
Speaking of my mom, let’s get introductions!
On this trip was my mom:
She is my favorite travel buddy. We have so much fun on these Disney trips, and other trips as well! She is a semi-retired teacher, so she can only go certain times of the year, which is why we usually go in September during holidays her school gets off.
Next up is me, Debbie!
(yes, I had way too much fun playing with the photopass lenses this trip!)
I was lucky enough to be introduced to Disney World at a very early age, and have been hooked ever since! (well, maybe after a few trips, I don’t think 2 year old me cared much if we returned
)
Now based on the title of this TR you’d probably think this was a super hot hot hot trip, but actually it wasn’t! That’s not to say we didn’t sweat, while it wasn’t surface of the sun hot, the humidity in the day or two leading up to Ian was nuts. Like within minutes of stepping outside we were dripping with sweat, but never actually felt super overheated. This of course led to a fantastically awkward interaction with a CM in an elevator when he saw us literally dripping and asked if it had been raining, and we informed him that no, we’re just really sweaty. We all got awkwardly silent after that.
Now let’s get into this report, hopefully this time around it won’t take a full year to finish!
