Destination D: Walt Disney World!

photo

So, it's been YONKS since I've posted - with very good reason (you'll get more of that as I get around to updating - soon!).

I did a full on TR over at the Dis: ATG does WDW Han Style...SOLO you can peep out all the deets and photos there. For the full on photo blast from that trip, here's my flickr link: Destination D: WDW

Waiting for the start
I've been doing a LOT of travel, gang. Whew. You'll be sick of all the pics I'll be posting in NO time!

Destination D: Walt Disney World

California Grill view

So earlier this month, I jetted off to Walt Disney World for "Destination D: Walt Disney World". It was a solo trip - No Jeff this time and would last about 5 days (including travel). It was a whirlwind!

I hopped on a Virgin America DIRECT flight from SFO to Orlando (Oh, Virgin America. How I love you!) and snagged a upgrade to "Main Cabin Select" seating. Best way to fly! Free movies, free food, priority boarding...it's like a cheapie version of First Class. I like it! Pictured is my 'travel bear', Humphrey. He keeps me company on trips when the Mister can't come along. That would be him enjoying his free headphones and free entertainment aboard Virgin America. (end unpaid commercial).

Arriving in Orlando, I caught a 'Magical Express' bus to my resort, Coronado Springs.

The room had some really nice touches, too:

I finished off my evening at Portobello at Downtown Disney for dinner. Meatball sliders and pistachio gelato are the perfect way to start a trip (and end a travel day).

Pilgrimage to Disneyland

"They go 'ga-ga' for it!"

Every year, I try to get to "The Happiest Place on Earth" at least ONCE. So far, this year, I've been once - in March. D23 had a lovely first year anniversary party and a pal of mine and I ventured forth. The party was held 'after hours' for D23 members but, my pal and I arrived before they booted everyone out in order to ride some rides and play. The only place we avoided was Fantasyland, as we'd have the run of the place during the party!
