I'm not huge on taking pictures and even though I have an AP which comes with memory maker, I rarely use it so this won't be big on pictures but it will be semi-live.
My trip is from Sunday, the 17th through Saturday the 23rd (I think that's the date) and it is a split stay with night one at Pop Century and the rest at The Dolphin. My main reason for the trip, other than the fact that it's a trip to Disney, is to try to get something from every booth at F&W. I don't count the permanent structures that are in the passport but here goes, I'm game.
I got up bright and early on Sunday morning and was on the road driving down from Athens, Georgia by 6 am. The traffic wasn't bad and I had no problems finding gas. About the time I got on the turnpike I got a text that my room at Pop was ready. Room 8106 in the 80s building. Cool, I had requested the 80s or 90s since I knew those buildings had been renovated and there would be a coffee pot in the room. A girl has to have her priorities. I got there around 1:45. I liked the room and the location was just a quick walk through the parking lot to the bus.
I put all my stuff in my room, which wasn't much since I was just there for one night and headed off to the bus stop. I hadn't had anything to eat since stopping at McDonald's at about 7 so I got on a bus to Epcot for my first F&W day. I headed to the Festival Center when I got there to see if I wanted to book any seminars for the afternoon.
Lo and behold there was a Vodka seminar at 5 and while I'm not a huge vodka straight drinker I decided let's expand my horizons so I booked that then headed out to the Festival. I sampled a few booths, the reviews are over on the restaurants board under the F&W sticky but here are the pictures.
After getting my fill of food I wandered over toward FW and decided since there was time before my seminar I'd hop on a ride. So, my first ride of the trip turned out to be SSE, which was a walk on. Then on to my vodka seminar.
