Something About Nothing ... #12

[schumigirl]

Yepper!!! On the 12th.

I'm wired, we should meet for coffee lol. I'll bring the bailey's.

Haven't booked an eat to the beat pkg in over a decade, but don't want to miss out on Blues Travelers. Have seen in concert in past, sounded great. Went with Biergarten as it seems to be best value for lunch. never eaten there as I thought DH would starve, but i do see roast chicken. My German hates German food...moron...I mean oxymoron.

Mac u like that joint don't you? Need a mini review please! Does the oompah band ever show up for lunch? Is the pork ham "ham" or is is more of a fresh, pork roast (which he won't touch). Salads on menu but 'funny' type as he would put it. Hoping for generic salad offering. Would think they have good bread options.

We ate there years ago........think our review may be out of date.........lol........we enjoyed it and I'm sure we didn't have to book back then..........well, it was 2007

Soooo sick of this heat . Triple digits for at least the next two weeks with swampy humidity. I may just stand in the pool and not come out til nightfall

!

We are a bit cooler today but still humid, which we're not used to here at all.........I feel for you, must be so much worse over there............


Sky looks like it could thunder anytime.......very dark and heavy.......if we have torrential rain doubt my friend will make it tonight.......but maybe stay dry.

Just had homemade jalapeño beef burgers.......plain beef for DS.......they were lovely! Going to have a little coconut ice cream.......lush!

Safe travels to the beach TinyD.

Sounds like a lush dinner Schumi. yeah, we have thunderstorm threats most afternoon/evenings during the summer. We'd almost welcome one this week-end. I'm with Sharky, pool time. Too bad I'll be road tripping again, all week-end. No pool for me so far.

@keishashadow yes you did. His cabaret type show is what I saw. It was really good.

 

[keishashadow]

Mac I can't remember. Know communal seating of sorts but hoping not long benches without backs that I've experienced elsewhere. How's those desserts nom?

Keisha, we ate at the German place once, with my kids. I booked a late lunch, because was much cheaper than dinner. They did have the band playing, and we had a nice couple at our table. DS and I ate fine, but I like most German food, and so does DS. DD, well, picky little one, did eat, but not the amount I would have expected for a buffet. Oh well. I think you will be fine with finding something to eat. The beer came in very large glasses, that we all got a kick out of.

Oh my, we will be record breaking temperatures for the week-end. Over 100 degrees, and oh so nice humidity to make that 100 plus feel even worse. Soccer games were moved to later in the day, but I don't think the weather will be much better. I'm going to pack a thermos and hope for the best. Need to google if there are any food places near, I can hit in between games.

I get to watch Blues Traveler. Shameful thing, I actually think I remember their hit song. I didn't book any Beats meals. No matter, at least I get a reserved seat, via that D23 package I booked. Looked at D23 online the other day, and that package is already sold out. I am expecting lots of peeps. Only part of the package I am most tickled about is The Chew. I hope I get a decent seat. Being short has some disadvantages.

Food please? That breakfast of pie and tea is not doing the trick.

Ok just need to find that schedule, he'll likely get a kick out of that at least. Beer helps everything go down better. I did book a beer seminar afterwards to sweeten the pot.

What day are you doing Blues Traveler? We'll be there the 5th. Need to figure out what day to say hey, Marcie too. Going to try for elusive BoG then I can finalize plans around that. MNNSHP likely will be 2nd part of WDW stay on 11th.

They are talking 100 degree heat indexes here starting tonight. Doesn't sound right, it's hot here but not that hot yet.

Btw the chew pkg were gone on day one. I was going to cave and buy the D23 lol. Take lots of pictures! If you have a chance give Clinton a big old squeeze for me lol. Wouldn't he just have the look on his face afterwards.

Yes, the Beats concert I'm going to is on the 5th. That afternoon, watching the taping of The Chew, concert, then dessert party in France. HeHe, I am hoping to get even a handshake from any of them. I will be taking pictures for sure.

I'm tickled, most of the D23 stuff is on the west coast, and sometimes a short fuse, and well, I am not in a hurry to cross the country. So, when the tickets opened up at 12 noon our time, for an event I would be able to attend, I grabbed mine. Doesn't surprise me it sold out fast. The private ride and food at the ToT in HS, which was another chunk of change that would be later that night, also went on sale the same time and day, but I passed. It sold out in 10 minutes. Since MK is open to midnight that night, I was going to go there after Illuminations. Illuminations start at 9pm, so I figure I can still have a few hours at MK. It's the only day MK magic hours at night are during my stay. Busy day, but like Mac, I can sleep later. I may even start at MK that morning, as then easy ride via monorail to get to Epcot, either that or I may just stay in Epcot most of the day. Still tweeking my schedule, as the stupid WDW has changed things around 3 times in the last couple of weeks. I guess some things set in stone will be on 3 August. Eeek, that means 60 days away. LOL

Good evening (here 7pm) guys. No rain or thunder here Schumi - for once we've escaped the rain. Loving the warmth at last and hoping we get some when we go to Devon in August with my DD and the littlies.
Very happy DGS has broken up from school today so we can plan some fun things for him - and some duvet days for him to recuperate.
Doesn't look like we'll get to WDW in September/October as we're just going to have to do something last minute but I'm sure we'll find something x

@keishashadow We saw tBlues Travelers 6 years ago in Denver. It was the last night of a 2 week long cross-country MINI Cooper rally and they had a private concert for us. We shared a blanket with the head honcho of MINI USA and his Wife. Lots of stories from that trip!

I wish Blues Traveler was playing on my dates...I got Sugar Ray, I can't recall any of the songs he sings.

Just wanted to watch my mileage turn over...only took me 8 years to get to 2000 posts and it's only right that it does it here.

We'll figure out meeting somehow!

We were there recently and most tables are for 8 people but have individual chairs.

 

[macraven]

Marcie did you finally get your family to beirgarten?

That is great

I know when we went, it was not a place
That you frequent

Hope your fam enjoyed it

We're planning BBQ Saturday too with family for hubs pre birthday as we won't be home on Sunday - we got rid of our huge gas BBQ and back to charcoal now as most of the time just the two of us.
I was just off to bed but had a sad call from my cousin - his wife has been battling cancer but he called to tell me it's now spread to her brain and she's deteriorating very quickly. Very saddened by the call and utterly sick of this terrible disease. They live a long way from us so I feel helpless about what I can do to assist - other than being here for him to talk x

You took me to my first trip to Biergarten. I went when I was down for my failed attempt to get hired last year. I felt bad for my friend cause she was having health issues so couldn't eat very much, and I had like 3 plates and dessert. I love sausage.

That's so sad to hear RFF.......being there for people means more than anything. I'm sure it'll be a comfort to him just to talk to you since you can't be there.

Yes, horrible disease. Hope she doesn't suffer too much.
