Hi Molly! I've seen you on the "No Steves" group and since so many other folks have either stopped traveling or stopped writing TRs, I thought it would be fun to follow along with some new TRs, and yours hasn't gotten so long yet that I can't catch up!
Looking forward to hearing about your long trip!
That's a nice long trip and the Boardwalk is a great place to stay! Especially not having to change resorts mid trip.
Gosh, I wish I could do that. Unfortunately in my line of work, I need to be available 24/7 if necessary and work inevitably creeps into my trips.
I love that movie! Especially the cleaning up scene/song.
Yikes!
I totally get that. I haven't actually missed a plane, but I had a close call that makes me want to be there super early.
Me too. I haven't seen what they replaced it with.
I haven't been evacuated off a ride for over 20 years, I think they're getting better about that, but it does still happen.
Monument Valley
I didn't realize that they had reopened it or where. I missed this on our last trip.
Good of you to do that, it would suck to have to change rooms after just two days.
Same.
I just tried that last trip, so tasty!
Yum, need to go back to Biergarten sometime again.
I don't think I could have even made it to dinner with your schedule!

Whew! That was a whirlwind of information for an intro post! But, finally, I can get to the nitty gritty!

When: November 13-22, 2021

When I leave for vacation, I always make sure to block notifications from my email and GroupMe so that I am fully disconnected from work. It feels so good to release that responsibility!

I realized that Enchanted was finally available to stream! So, we had to watch that!!

Alarms were set for 3:20 AM!!
Yikes!
BUT, I am absolutely scarred for life from that experience, haha! So, we made sure we got to the airport super early so there was no chance of us getting delayed at luggage check-in or security!

The last time I stayed here, the creepy clown slide was still intact! I enjoy this version much better

I was realllllly hoping that we would get evacuated off. That’s how you know you’re a Disney nerd!

What’s yours?
Monument Valley
Mom and I loved Club Cool in the past and were so excited when the new facility opened.

Our reservation for BWV was actually two continuous reservations- one for 11/13- 11/15 and the other for 11/15- 11/22. Luckily, we made sure to check at the front desk and they assured us that this would be our room for the entire stay.

I think it’s called Creations now? It will always be Mousegears to me.
Same.
I also got a chocolate-covered caramel s’mores treat.
I just tried that last trip, so tasty!
Beer cheese soup, roasted potatoes, pork schnitzel, mac and cheese, sausage, meatballs, and two pretzel rolls.
Yum, need to go back to Biergarten sometime again.
We were sooo sleepy, but we had one last stop before heading back to BWV- Harmonious!
I don't think I could have even made it to dinner with your schedule!
