4. My feet feel better with the blisters...![]()

2. Have a good short rest at the resort in the afternoon...![]()
3. A good dinner at Raglan Road in DownTown Disney with the whole family...![]()
You know what? I cant even remember what type of appetizer the boys got. I have no
stinking idea and I dont have any pictures of it. I'm thinking that they didn't even get one
but whatever. Rob & I chose the exact same appetizer. We chose the pan-seared Georges
Bank scallops served on creamed sweet corn and garnished with a candied lemon salad.

Let me tell you, both Rob & I licked our plates clean. This was the best scallops appetizer we
have ever had.
Meanwhile, the boys wanted me to take some pictures of them so I obliged...Heres Evan!
Notice Sleeping Brookie's head...

And heres Alec! Hey, Alec...the camera is over here!
![]()
Well, close enough...

So, I sucked down my Citrus Mist. I mean, I took my time sipping my cocktail within 15
minutes and .... ordered another $9.50 Citrus Mist!
![]()
And Rob ordered another draft. We figured, what the hay! Were on vacation!!
I moved my Citrus Mist to the right of my place setting. Now, here is where that green lamp
comes into play. The next time I went for a sip of my cocktail, I raised the glass and WHAM!
It hit the underneath of the lamp. I looked at the lamp and saw this...
![]()
Totally cracked it. I checked my drink to make sure it was okay, which it was. Whew! Saved
that one!!! So, we ignored the lamp the rest of the night and I kept my drink on my left side.
Do you see all that dust? I did not notice that before the crack but it is definitely dust as you
can see the finger "swipes" in it. Ew.
Ahh...time for our main courses....next time.
For Evan:![]()
Ok I don't even see the crack on the lamp...When you said and "I looked at the lamp and saw this..." I thought you meant the dust.

No, I did not complain about the dust. I'll explain in a separate post as a lot of people are asking about that.Holy Cow......You almost lost your Drink....That would be Alcohol Abuse!!1
Great Pics....
& the Food looked Great!!!...But the Dust on the Lamp...Did you Complain!!!
![]()
I would totally go back to Raglan Road despite that dust!well thank god the Citrus Mist did not get damaged, who cares about a dusty lamp.and the dust is disgusting. Nothing like having that by your food. Maybe I will rethink my reservation. The scallops looked delicious.
How could Brookie sleep through food, if you look at me pic you know I do not do that.![]()
Great update. See ya Wednesday with the new one but hey if you get a minute then throw us a bone.
Abuse alcohol in an Irish pub? Who me? Who anybody?Good thing you did not abuse the alcohol in an Irish establishment as we Irish folk don't take kindly to that sort of thing.
Hmm, I don't have Raglan Road on, my to do lists for the next 2 trips, maybe I need to re-think it after reading yours and V's trippies.
Is Brookie still asleep?
The drink was totally the most important thing! I have news about the State Fair....![]()

You're all so childish![]()

What us? We would never ever dream of doing anything like that!![]()
![]()
That must have been one strong drink![]()
At least the drink was in one place hey![]()
BTW hope you have a lovely time at the fair![]()
You really missed a lot? I don't think so. I think I only update 3 x a week...you really need to keep up!Wow, miss a day or 2 becasue of Jimmy's Birthday and I miss a lot! Raglan Road sounds great. It is going onto my possible list for next year![]()
I'd like to say I'm a lightweight but uhm, I think everyone would have a good laugh at that one! Would you please come here and dust? I keep forgetting to buy some furniture polish!!!Uh....how many citrus mists did you have again???
![]()
The scallops look great......now I'm hungry.....and thirsty.....and have a strange desire to dust........![]()
Thanks! My main thought was....as long as the drink is okay, life is grand!glad to hear the drink was ok
![]()
Great shots of the boys![]()
And they totally were!!!!Yum! The scallops look good!
I would have had to complain and get another drink if it was not fine.... I'll post about the dust separately...I'm glad the drink survived (horrors if it hadn't!) but the "dust" thing really gets to me. Bad enough when you find that in the room, but when FOOD is involved? I'm surprised at Raglan Road.
Did you say anything, DM, or were you afraid to bring attention to the CRACKED LIBRARY LAMP?!![]()
The scallops looked great!! Good save on the drink![]()
Funny how so many people really cared about my drink!Thank goodness the drink survived, what a tragedy that would have been if it was lost.![]()
That dusty lamp is disgusting. I can't believe they allow it to get that bad. It is not even located in an out of the way place that might get forgotten about, it is right there at the table! I hope you complained.
I have a story about our trip to the Fair...Those appetizers looked yummy. We sat outside, so there was not a lamp to get dusty. Sorry about that, but I again will say that it was one of the best meals we had all summer, let alone at WDW...
Anyway, fun pictures! Hope the Fair was fun. Sorry, gotta do it again:
"Our State Fair is a Great State Fair!"
I'm sure it did....i'm just glad none of that dust fell into your drink when you hit it....or did it???![]()
Are you implying I was drunk when I hit the lamp????? How dare you!Your Citrus mist looks yummy !!!! Hitting the lamp after a second drink is something that I would do.I can't get over the dust. I mean seriously that should be clean considering it is on the table !!!
Anyways I am not crazy about scallops but that looked really good !!!!
It was fun! I have a story to tell everyone with pictures!!!Hope you had a great time at the fair! State fairs can be so much fun! I have not been to one in years though. I used to beg my parents to take me to the fair!
The crack is on the right side, just left of the "light" from the camera flash. Still great place~! Thanks for Evan's birthday wishes!For Evan:![]()

Note to self: Stay away from Raglan Road lamps. Ewwww, that's just gross.![]()
Still the food is awesome there and I loveit.
Enjoy the Fair!![]()
Thanks for Evan's birthday wishes!!!!Oh yes, thank you Li, can't forget the birthday boy!

Woohoo....I love when I can help someone with what to get. I will give you your entire menu for your trip if you wish!Okay, Raglan Road is definitely a must do - told DH that if we get in early enough the first night of the trip we're going there (we're pretty booked up the rest of the week). I'm definitely getting the scallops- and the citrus mist. I'm such a lemming. SO glad you saved the drink! Have a wonderful day!
Happy Birthday Evan![]()

See my separate post about the dust.Yuck! When I looked at that picture all I saw was dust too.
I'm glad you had your priorities straight and made sure your drink was okay!![]()

Evan thanks you!!!Ok, that comment just made my day!![]()
Happy Birthday, Evan!![]()

It took me forever, but I'm fnally all caught up! That lamp would have grossed me out. At least your drink was OK! I can't wait for more, your kids are so cute!
Yes, I'm sure I digested some dust. See my separate post on that. Thanks for Evan's birthday wishes!The scallops look yummy!
Is the crack on the lamp on the right side? I hate to tell ya but you probably digested some dust. I can't imagine that none got in your drink. But oh well, you seemed to have enjoyed it either way!![]()
I was thinking about going their OOP our first night when I saw the scallops...then I saw the dust and it turned me off.
Same here!
Happy Birthday to Evan!! Hope your family is having a great day!![]()
Evan thanks you!!![]()
Happy Birthday Evan
Ah come on, buy me one, or two, or three!!!Yummo! Talk about making my mouth water!![]()
Okay...gotta remember not to give you those anymore!Just kiddin'! The lamp just got in the way! Stupid thing.
