November 8 – 10, Downtown Disney hosted the 38th Festival of the Masters. This was our third year to attend. Because of the overlap with Food & Wine, we were only able to make it over once and missed things that in the program sounded interesting. With all the construction and fences, there continue reading 2013 Festival of the Masters at Downtown Disney … If you are of a certain age, you will know who Christopher Cross is. Judging by all the 50’ish folks we were walking toward the Epcot entrance with (at 4:50 – just in time for the 5:30 show), I suspected that they, like us, had decided to come out and see Christopher Cross. This was continue reading Eat to the Beat Concert – Christopher Cross – 2013 Epcot International Food & Wine Festival … We recently stopped in at the Cabana poolside bar with a large group of friends, you see, we had committed the ultimate WDW visitor error – no planning in advance for food.

When we went over on Halloween afternoon, imagine our surprise… we continue reading Nick’s 25 Best Floats from the 2013 Halloween Golf Cart Parade at Fort Wilderness … Before Best Friends Resort opened at Walt Disney World, there was a kennel at Fort Wilderness Campground. Because of this you could drive into their parking lot without passing through the security gate. When the kennel closed, they moved the gates around and you must process through security to park your car. This has severely continue reading 2013 Halloween at Fort Wilderness Campground and Resort … 2013 is the first year for the Pasta Making seminar at the Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic. Our friends Kris and Kevin really wanted to attend this, so we made sure to get four spots as soon as tickets became available – turns out that was a good thing because this sold continue reading Swan and Dolphin Food & Wine Classic 2013 – “Chef Cib’s Pasta Making” … First off, let me say that we aren’t ranking things on a scale of 1-10 this year (don’t know why, probably because we aren’t that enamored with the festival marketplaces in general – they’re much better during the Flower & Garden Festival (again, that’s a “don’t know why”))… That said, we are trying a few continue reading 2013 Epcot International Food & Wine Festival – Singapore Marketplace – Mahi Mahi with Singa Sauce … This is the fourth year that we’ve attended Chad Lobner’s “All Things Sake!” seminar during the Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic – and we’re never disappointed.
