MickeyMotto's Belated, but Photo & Food Packed TR

First, I want to apologize for this being sooooooo belated of a TR.

Our trip was in February, but when we got back.....well, life took over again. After 2 bouts with the flu , a big annual fundraiser , kids and work ...the TR is finally about to begin.

And I might add, its a good thing cause we are leaving in about 40 days for another trip! If I didn't have this one done before we leave, I know I would never get the darn thing ever posted. So, for those who may still be interested, here we go........

No need to apologize. TR's are always accepted late.

Cast & Characters
Me ~ MickeyMotto
DH ~ Andy
DS2 ~ Tyler

DS3 ~ Sean (to join us later when he arrives with the band)

DS1 ~ JJ (absent from photos, as he is away at college)


This trip was yet another band trip to the World. Last band trip was the "Freezing in February TR" this trip was thankfully a much better trip because Mother Nature was on our side this time.

We were able to swim and enjoy 70+ degree sun filled days for almost the entire trip.

This journey begins with the arrival to one of our favorite resorts where we enjoyed our stay. The Wilderness Lodge....

Why, thank you.

I just got back from your neck of the woods last week. We were at the Borgata for the weekend.

While enjoying the pool each day, we swam with some new friends and loved wandering around the lodge..

Re: MickeyMotto's Belated, but Photo & Food Packed TR

We indulged in the Deluxe Dining Plan this trip, so prepare to see a lot of food this TR. Our first stop on the dining tour was in DTD at one of our new favorites, Ragland Road.

This is will be our rating theme:

Loved
Liked
Ehh:
Yuk

We enjoyed these appetizers:

Drunk Chicken - a whiskey glazed chicken kebab served with lime cilantro dipping sauce

Dalkey Duo - Dalkey-battered cocktail sausages with a Dalkey mustard dipping sauce

Scallop Forest - forks of scallops served with a lime dipping sauce

Beer flight (But we had Guinness later)

Re: MickeyMotto's Belated, but Photo & Food Packed TR

Our first morning starts out with an Ohana Breakfast.

Since we are big Steeler Fans and this was the week after the Super Bowl, DH brought the Terrible Towel everywhere. So this TR will be like finding the Hidden Mickeys, but with the Terrible Towel.

As you can see, Mickey & Stitch are Steeler Fans too!!!

Re: MickeyMotto's Belated, but Photo & Food Packed TR

After breakfast, we headed off to Blizzard Beach! We would have preferred Typhoon Lagoon since we had just left cold, cold, Pittsburrrrrrgh, but since it was being refurbished, we settled for a relaxing morning at BB.

Then after a refreshing swim, some slides and a few laps around the lazy river, we were off to DTD and Disney Quest...
