~ Greetings All ~
Welcome to my latest TR! Thank you for joining in as I relive the past week at the happiest food and wine festival in the world!
Before we get started, some introductions:
First there is my mom. Travel partner extraordinaire. She and I have very similar travel styles, both love Disney, and both love food and wine, so we make sure to visit the F&W fest every year!
Next up is me! I’m Debbie and will be your narrator for the next, well, let’s just say a year because let’s face it, I take forever to get these TR’s done!
After last year, we told ourselves that this year we would do less and take it slow. Well, we tried, but then Disney went and changed things on us and our good intentions were thrown out the window!
We did get to take advantage of the EEMH, which was fantastic! We also found however that the crowds this year were a lot worse than we’ve ever seen in any of our September trips, especially at Epcot and AK. Epcot we expected big crowds with the ending of Illuminations during our trip, but AK? Not sure why that was so packed!
A brief overview of what we accomplished on this trip!
-EEMH at HS (including rope dropping MF:SR)
-Circles of Flavor
-Riding the Skyliner for the first time!
-DAH at MK
-MNSSHP
-Lamb and Spirits Pairing with Robert Irvine
-Illuminations Dining Package at Rose and Crown
-Festival of the Lion King Package
-Mediterranean Food and Wine Pairing
-Final Illuminations Party/viewing
-Epcot Forever Party/viewing
-Cabana Rental!
-Drinks at Oga’s!
Ok, yeah. We were a tad busy this trip!
Also, here’s a fun game….can you find us in this picture???
Alright, on with the show!
