Marc and I got up early and headed to Hollywood Studios to be there at park opening. This is where staying onsite vs offsite is a huge advantage. All the Disney Resorts get to enter the parks 30 minutes early. While 30 minutes may not seem like much, it is a nice perk, as if…
This morning Marc and I were up early, so we watched the sunrise over the lake from our balcony. After everyone got around, we Ubered to the World Food Trucks and the Visitor Flea Market. There are around 40-50 food trucks to choose from, although not all of them are open every day. Some of…
This morning we slept in a little bit, before having coffee on the balcony overlooking the lake. After we all got dressed, we decided to walk down to one of the little gift shops that is located right next to the resort. When we got back, we took a walk around the resort to check…
This morning we got up and walked over to Cafe Rix to get coffee and breakfast. I found a sunny rocking chair to enjoy my coffee, while Marc went to pick up our rental car. We decided since we were moving to an offsite condo for the next week, that we would just rent a…
Today was Marc’s Birthday. It was also the day the Chiefs played the Dolphins in Germany. The game started at 9:30 this morning so we had breakfast reservations at the Rix Sports Bar and Grill here at our resort, so Marc could watch it. We were both awake early and needed coffee, so we walked…
This morning I was up a little before 3:00 AM and on my bus shortly after, to head out for my runDisney Wine and Dine 10K. I arrived at Epcot and made it through security by 3:30. I grabbed a coffee from Joffrey’s Coffee Truck and found a place near the stage to listen to…
We were up at 2:30 AM to catch the bus at 3:00 for our 5K this morning. This race started and ended in the Epcot parking lot and ran through Epcot World Showcase. We got to Epcot around 3:15 and headed over to the pre-race area. The atmosphere was crazy. There was a stage set…
This morning we slept in a little bit, then walked over the the Gran Destino Tower to get coffee and breakfast, at the Barcelona Lounge. After Marc finished his food, we headed outside to find a sunny spot to finish enjoying our coffee. Then we finished exploring the resort, before heading back to the room…
We were up at 4:30 to catch our 6:10 flight out of Wichita. Our connecting flight in St Louis was delayed so I used that opportunity to get the work done I needed to do today, which means I won’t have to do it tonight! We landed around noon, picked up our bag, called an…
