On brighter note, we got boarding group 63!

Man thanks for the pictures guys. I have needed a Disney fix after all this time mostly at home.

 

[Teamubr]

We are booked for the 50th too. September 23- October 3rd. Premium site for a nightly average of $130 a night. That is better than this year. 10 day Hopper tickets are back too!

We are still booked for July, not the 50th yet for the fort, but not giving up our 2021 trip.

Morning update. The puzzle team came together and conquered the stretching portrait:




The team decided they weren’t done puzzling so we’ve moved on to a new one (and a different site, sun was killing us lol):

For everyone attending the meet, Sarah from the Fb group asked if we were interested in donating any non-perishable food items to the Cast Member Pantry. I know for some of us, this may be the last camping trip of the season. This would be a great opportunity to empty the camper pantry for a worthy cause.

Let me know and I will get everything to Sarah.

Brown Derby for lunch. In all my years and trips I've never experienced this place. DW and myself got grilled chicken.


Kids also had chicken, potatos, and parfait.


I'll give it a thumbs up. Sad part, after getting discount using my Disney Visa the high end brown Derby was cheaper than burger joint at Universal. So, two thumbs up since atmosphere and service was excellent.

Ok we did not jump on the oct 1 2021 ressie bandwagon but did decide we love the fort and missing the marathon weekend. Booked a full hook up forJan 24 till feb 6. Figure we will still be on COVID work from home so will work from fort.

jim took a good picture of us at GE On Tuesday.


today we sat aroun, well I ran 7 miles this morning. Next we puzzled. Then lunch was a big decision that ended up being leftovers and wine from the fridge.

Joe came by with Cody and Cleo.





Then we helped a huge 5th wheel back into the site across from us. The site is plenty long but there is not enough maneuvering space for a 42 ft 5th wheel and truck.

I’ll post for a change.

Tri-Circle D last night heading to Geyser Point


@garneska on the Skyliner (Tuesday)


Today, we’re just hanging out and enjoying the Fort (With visits from the Enchanted Tiki Room - see @garneska post above)
