Welcome everyone to my latest trip report!
This was once again a trip down to Disney to experience the Food and Wine Festival. Granted, it was only like half a festival this year, but it still had great food and we loved it once again!
We actually booked an extra long trip this year in hopes that events would come back, but sadly that did not happen. On the bright side, we had an extra long trip to enjoy everything else Disney has to offer!
One thing that was completely new to us this trip, and a nod to the TR title, was rain! Yes, I know we’ve been ridiculously lucky, on all of our yearly F&W trips in September since 2016 this is the only one we’ve gotten rain during the day, and only one other had rain at night one night. Crazy lucky, I know, so we were totally due for a rainy trip, and this mostly delivered!
There is also another reason for this TR title….but we’ll get to that a bit later!
Ok, so now for the introductions:
First up, my mom, aka travel buddy extraordinaire!
She is a teacher, semi-retired, but still works most days, so we take our trips when her school has off for Rosh Hashanah or Yom Kippur when they fall in September. We love our September trips! Usually fantastic weather…. ( )
Then there’s me, I’m Debbie, I love Disney and especially love the Food and Wine festival!
I am the planner of the trip, I love crafting a perfect vacation, and planning is *almost* as fun as the trip itself. Although this trip was definitely one of the trickiest to plan, it seemed so much was changing leading up to the trip our schedule changed SO much. It got to the point that I started naming the tabs on our spreadsheet things like “this is getting ridiculous” or “Changing Again????”
In the end though it was a great trip, and with the lack of special events, the most relaxing trip we’ve ever taken!
Now on with the show!
