The Magic of Disney World Still Works




A trip was planned to Disney World (as we did years ago) with the grandsons. Both sets of grandparents were going. This started in 2020 and rescheduled 4 times due to you know what. So we finally went. Despite the heat, the rain, the masking and crowds, we persevered. If you weren't in shape before , you would be by the end. (I know I did over 22,000 steps in one day alone.) 



A huge thanks goes to Jeff for helping to plan and reserve the restaurants and park events including the hottest ticket, The Rise of the Resistance (Star Wars), and we also enjoyed impressive rides for Frozen, the Avatar Flight and more. 



The food included a rotating restaurant, family style dinners (instead of buffets), and concluded with a delicious Japanese steakhouse. The food overall was great, and everyone was nice and welcoming. 



We all went our separate ways after 4 full days, and Linda and I spent an extra day in Hollywood and our favorite, The Brown Derby, where we reenacted the I Love Lucy moment of Lucy and William Holden. After some window shopping, it was time to head back to Baltimore. 


It was nice to see Jeff, Sandra, and the boys, Brooks and Jake, experience this as a family. Don and his wife Linda and I with my Linda were sharing in the memories, and I honestly feel that we all grew closer this week. (Yes it was humid, but Disney World was and is a magical place for sure!)
