They are! They really are!
I've done six so far, and they've all been beyond fantastic!
Might I suggest Greece next? Or Scotland? Or there's an adults only Central Europe trip in early Sept next year!

I want to know where the photos of the Italian Bradley Cooper are!

Unfortunately for the ladies reading this TR I was the primary photographer and Italian Bradley Cooper look alikes were not high on my list of things that needed to be photographed. Shocking I know but those photos are lacking here.
While there are those fabulous eye candy shots out there like this one I was not the one taking the photo. DW may have some shots I'm not aware of that she can post.
What about the food could you not handle? The Guides were amazing at arranging stuff that I could eat!Greece is one that we are looking at especially after seeing the photos from your TR. It's a place I would love to see but not sure if I could handle the food. If we do go I might have to pack my own food supply.

Welcome to the ABD addicts club Dustin!

I'm just so jealous and excited to read about this trip. Post as many of the thousands of pictures as you want to!!!!
Great start! I'm torn about reading, since we will be doing the "non-dis" version. I don't want to get trip envy. Oh, who am I kidding, I have trip envy of every single ABD anyway, might as well read along! And I'm sure the plain vanilla Viva Italia will still be awesome!
Ok, read through your first update - what a great start!
I am sure that it was tough to leave your son but the fact he was so excited to spend time with his grandparents I am sure helped.
Glad your trip over went as smoothly as possible - and you got to experience the, um, joys of NYC area airports and the price of the food there ... it's like they are their own world completely oblivious to the price of food outside of them
and of course the first scenic thing you see is your Italian driver
So amazing to be able to walk out of your hotel room and see such amazing architecture and art! The church you stopped in in just beautiful!
Can't wait to hear more about the tour

Notice that I did not take that either. My DW took that one and I think your DW was wielding a camera as well.
Very much looking forward to following your TR. I'm interested to hear how it was changed and adjusted by the Dis. Rome is such an awesome city to walk around. It's been years since I've had the chance to walk around at night. Most recently we've stopped over just for the day on DCL cruises, but I distinctly remember how beautiful Rome is at night. Everyone's out strolling, and having a good time. The fountains and random 2000yo columns pop up around every corner. What a great city!
When Val & I got to Rome two days before the official start we decided to explore the city ourselves. After all, we were in ROME!!!
We spent the afternoon of our first day walking around the area to the front and left of the hotel and got pretty far afield. It was fun to just take it all in. The next day we decided we needed to go the other way and made our way up to the Borghese Gardens, which we knew were not on our tour. Again a fantastic way to see some of Rome and get acquainted with things.
You food & wine adventure looks amazing! Oh that risotto ball with a hunk of mozzarella looks so yummy!
What an incredible wine cellar. I would have loved that.
And your pasta looks so lovely. What a treat to be served fresh homemade pasta. Your foodie tour looks like a great way to kick off the trip!
Wow, that food tour was awesome!!! I want all.the.things! What a great way to see the area and the culture - and so yummy too! Is this something that's just through Disney or do they do them for other tourists? What a great idea.
