We are getting up early-ish — not RD, but not late like today — to get the AK for the morning, then back here for a break because DD has a job interview, then weygo back to AK for the afternoon

So i’ll write more later, but this was an incredible day. We did not ride one single ride !!! And it was a perfect day!!! We strolled, we looked, we saw, we shopped (I can’t wait to get those rewards on my Disney Visa!), we snacked, we tried new things.

Yes, it turns out that relaxed slow down Disney vacation is possible, and wonderful!

off to make my tea and get some sleep for Round 2!

Good morning! I’m back from a short run and here is where i am having my first cup of coffe

those are rocking chairs!

I can see monorails and boats heading to MK. the cabins on the other half (Boulder Ridge side ) have a full lake view, but this is fun. This would be a perfect cabin location for watching HEA :rage:

DD and I stayed up just talking in front of our cozy fireplace, so a slight change in plans in the works: we’ll leave for AK at 10am and she’ll break off around 12:30pm and do her interview in her car :upside_down_face: so we don’t have to drive all the way back here and back to AK

The only ride at AK we want to do is KS, otherwise its trails and looking/seeing things. We have a 7:25 ADR at Narcoosee, so when we are done with AK we’ll drive to GF and see the decorations there

And, when I awoke this morning it was to an email from runDisney cancelling in-person Star Wars Race Weekend in April. Not a surprise, but :sob::rage:

Since I’m not interested in paying $409 for virtual races and more medals and race shirts that i don’t need, i’ll probably choose the full refund option

So I get to buy more today, right?! :wink:. I’m saving money

Teppan Edo is a family tradition for us. We love it. Your dinner looked delicious!

Beautiful cabin pictures. What a special treat.

Have fun today. Exploring AK is one of the best things. Happy shopping!
