Where In The World 21. We are now completely legal!!!

Up WITH THE SUN this morning :faint:; since our long trips for soccer have been a few months ago I'm NOT used to that! On my 4th cup of coffee now! :coffee: Fairly good day so far for Center Stage...they got 3rd, 4th and 5th Overall...so 3 of their 5 numbers did well. I LOVE KATIE'S SOLO and isn't the costume "much improved" ...

:faint: THANK GOODNESS! She's dancing to MOONLIGHT SONATA....one of my FAVORITE "classics" and she "knocked it out of the ball park"!

Competition is pretty stiff so not expecting an "Overall" but anxious to see the judges remarks. This Award Ceremony isn't until 9:30 this evening. I'll be honest, the "dance world" is "leaving me behind"! Some of the numbers from the larger studios out of Austin were :scared1::eek:😳🥴😵...it was like the "Walking Dead" were performing! 🙄 There have been a LOT of Californian's moving to the Austin area and you can certainly tell the "influence" it's had on the numbers they're putting on stage. The top scoring performance was WAY above my head! The dancers crawled on stage like they were "dying" and 3 other dancers "brought them out of the darkness". :crazy: Gonna be a LONG competition season! 🤣

No Ma'am...not any of those. It's currently not listed on the map (I think it's been closed since the Covid shutdown); of I'm not mistaken they only served drinks (we never got anything from there). I'll just post pic and spot if that doesn't help either. :tink:
I have no idea.
 

Does Upcountry Landing ring a bell? The statue I took the crop from is behind me while I'm talking this picture...

Last night I was googling to try to figure this crop out and I saw this place and thought I read it was new and just opening so I figured it couldn’t be it. I guess it must have been an old article :rotfl:

I had to really search for info too! I remembered stopping there 'cause the Tree of Life view was so pretty and there was a character boat going by but had no idea of the exact location! I'm always LOST though in the AK!😅 :tink:
 
Well...we're officially booked for Nov. 25th-Dec. 2...for "better or worse". :rotfl2: Mandy and I were both talking about all the HASSLE you go through now to go to DW! :rotfl: We only booked 5 park days because of it! We may not do many, if any, of our "favorites" but I refuse to PAY for all those attractions! :furious: We might pay for Rise but won't for anything else. We've got arrival day for DS and taking another full day for breakfast at Kona and resort hopping to see the Christmas decorations. We decided to go with POP. Downside....the POP bus stops are usually the LAST ones and a LONG walk at the park bus stops but wanted to be on the Skyliner route but we'll only need to use them for the MK and AK. There's a possibility Bryan may also come and having 2 rooms instead of the family suite works better for that... and if he doesn't that's okay too, Mandy will have a room to herself. We'll have a busy 10 days; will be in Houston with Katie and the Brahmadoras for the Thanksgiving Day Parade Wednesday and until noon on Thursday; dinner at my sisters that night and leave Friday!

Did you watch all the drama during the women's skating finals tonight? 😳 The young lady who was suppose to win (but shouldn't have been skating in the first place) "bombed" her performance and came in 4th (felt bad for her despite the circumstances....she's only 15!); the young lady that earned the bronze metal bawled her eyes out since she wasn't expecting to medal; the silver medalist had a regular temper tantrum 'cause SHE didn't win gold and the poor gold medal winner was left sitting on the couch not knowing what to do and no one to congratulate her 'cause the coaches were all dealing with the other 2 girls! :faint: Interesting evening and totally unexpected!:crazy:

And to top it off we had a high today (around noon) of 77 degrees and 12 hours later it's 37 with 30-35 mph north winds! :eek: May or MAY NOT be going to soccer games tomorrow evening! :rotfl::cold:

No Ma'am, not a Joffrey's Coffee. :tink:

no fair i want to go back too :( lol

we are hoping by 2023 we can go back down, we were actually talking about it over the weekend a bit .
we are hoping the dinning plan will be back by then too

i am still lost about how this whole new genie thing works. i have not been paying any attention to it because we are not going down any time soon

We thought long and hard before we made the reservation but promised Amanda on our June trip last year we'd come back for the holiday decorations and the end of the 50th celebration. I seriously doubt we'll mess with the Genie stuff; maybe when we do HS but that's all. We refuse to PAY for fastpass and will just do rope drop and stand in line. It will just be us and Amanda....maybe Bryan but most likely not. HOPING the dining plan comes back too 'cause our main goal is our favorite places to eat (we have 1 in each park); the resort Christmas decorations; the new fireworks; Disney Springs and the park decorations. You won't be long behind us if you're looking at 2023! It's TIME for you to take the kids again! :tink:
