Everyone Else Is Doing It... a solo trip report that we all know won't get finished

As @Jeff_AZ said don’t be in the air. They canceled my niece’s order once. She still uses insta a lot.

It waited until the instant I left to start raining… but it was over by the time I got to the lobby, and got have to have rain to have a rainbow…

Headed back to ride SDD, and then off to MK to finish her out.

And re: Instacart… I like it because you can choose Publix, which I love because they have good produce and prepared fresh food. I’ve only ever had one bad experience with them, and that was a driver who spoke like, zero English and got turned back at the gate. They refunded me and re-sent the order.

Also, if you get alcohol then you must be present for the delivery… they cannot leave it at bell services.

Arriving at HS… still raining here. It’s clear off to one side though, so we’ll look for the rainbow.

Current status:

SDD appears to be down, though, so we’ll have to see if HS is the one that screws up my whole day.

And here comes the golden pass… the window wasn’t over until 7:20, so I guess it’s down for awhile.

TSMM or ToT again???

Is the magic pass still good continuously?

Yes, but there’s no more LL times for most things, plus I’m headed to MK. I’ll finish the float I ordered, do TSMM, then head out, I guess. We’ll consider HS done, but kind of a bust.

Booked BTMRR, will follow that with HM and then HoP or Monsters Inc, I think. Maybe Tiki Room.

Oh, and Columbia Harbor House.

I thundered bigly… next LL for HM is 9:20, and the BTMRR standby is only 15 (is 9:03), so I am going to try for a fireworks ride

What is that lovely stuff in the bowl?

That’s the seafood bowl… shrimp, sausage, potatoes, and corn. It’s got a hint of spice, but it’s not egregious.

Thanks. I noticed it on the menu but we didn’t get back to MK.

I wasn’t there to say YAY, but you did it!!!

Any special merch to celebrate?

I managed to get my fireworks ride in BTMRR… it was timed pretty well, so every time we came out into the open there were fireworks. After the ride I watched the rest of the show back there, which is one of my favorite spots. No projections, but also no crowds, no worrying about 2 dozen people blocking your view with a camera.





Then I went to socialize with some happy haunts.

I had decided on Monsters Inc for the finish, but then I was walking through Fantasyland and IASW was walk on, so I did that.

And for the big finish…

My step-less strategy paid off, somewhat… I finished out with just over 30k steps, which is 3k less than yesterday.

So a run-down of my 4p1d:
AK - no RD, KS (8:00 LL), Gorillas, breakfast @ Y&Y, MJT
Epcot - ~10:40, GotG (11:00 ILL), Journey of Water, The Seas, Pixar movies… no food/drink
HS - ~1:15, ToT (1:40 LL), no spaces at the bar
back to ASS to rest
HS - ~6:30, SDD was down, had a root beer float in TSL, used anytime LL on TSMM
MK - ~7:50, Columbia Harbor House dinner, BTMRR (8:10 LL), second ride during fireworks, watched the rest of the show, HM (9:10 LL), IASW, Philharmagic

I didn’t buy any special merch, but I did stop at the Confectionery on the way out tonight, and got a few treats (no popcorn… I really only like popcorn by itself).

All that AND a five hour break!!!

Eh, it was more like 3.5 (was after 2:00 by the time I got off ToT, and I was back at the bus around 6). It was funny, because I was falling asleep sitting up on the bus back to ASS (which I never do), but then when I tried to nap in the room, I’d “wake up” feeling like I’d just been really asleep but I’d check the time and it was like 10-15 minutes. That lasted the entire hour I tried to sleep!

The break did wonders, though. My knee is really not feeling too bad, either. I guess we’ll see if it stiffens up in bed again.
