DW and I started a blog last December with the intent to blog about our honeymoon to WDW in 2010. Well...that never happened...so the blog sat gathering dust for months. Then we went back to WDW this past June and have blogged the first several days. We plan on getting the rest of the trip recapped sometime soon. I also plan on writing up a few things on observations and funny things that happened while we were there...pictures included.

Everyone here is free to check it out. I am hoping to put a trip report here on SSR at some point, but for now you can check out our blog.

Awesome BIG!! I love reading blogs that have interesting content and what can be more interesting than Disney? I'm starting to think I might be a tad obsessed...nah!

I got a chance to read through your blog so far and it's great BIG! You and your wife look like you had an awesome vacation

I didn't realize that Old Key West was so close to Downtown Disney. I got hooked on the Earl of Sandwich shop on the last vacation. I had the Italian sandwich two different times ~ once for breakfast

Very cool blog, BIG. And I'm glad to see that you guys are fellow Jalapeno Margarita nuts! What'd I tell y'all, everyone? Those things are great!

You're wearing me down. I might need to try one on the next trip!

I also took a gander at the Blog and think it's great. I also noticed the Jalapeno Margarita love and it's clenched it for me... I'm getting one on Day 1 at San Angel Inn on our Mother/Son October trip (not that I didn't trust you M-Dude!). Also, it was really cool to see that you include going to a local Mass during your trip. What church do you go to while on property, Our Lady Queen of the Universe?

I do have a question on the Jalapeno margarita. It looks like the one at the restaurant isn't as large as the to-go glass you had. Is the to-go one bigger? More expensive? All the same?

I saw the jalapeno maragarita this last trip and I almost got it, but I didn't...

I was worried about finishing the thing by myself, and I wasn't sure if the wife would help me if it was too hot.
So we chickened out and got the Rose-Infused one...man was it ever tasty. Never had a maragarita drink so smoothly.

The Rose one was good too, but a little on the sweet side for me. Go for the Jalapeno one next time!

Thanks for the kudos on the blog. We are hoping to update it soon...dang life gets in the way!
NaCler...yes we went to Our Lady Queen of the Universe. I had been several times and DW hadn't...so I wanted her to see how nice it is. Hard to believe it was built by donations from people vacationing there.
The jalapeno margarita really is incredible. It's not hot at all...you don't taste the heat of the pepper...but rather the actual taste of it. It also has cucumbers in it as well...so you get the freshness of those in the drink. It's probably the one margarita you can drink while walking around in the Florida heat...just make sure you finish it before all the ice melts.
We're hoping to get the blog update soon...so keep checking it. Thanks!

BIG - Very nice, I've only seen it from the road and it looks pretty massive. I'm sure you don't take pictures inside, but if you did snap one (while no one was looking) please post it here or on your blog. I'd love to see the inside of it and I don't know if we will ever get over there during Mass to see it.

DW and I have updated our blog here recently...in an attempt to finish blogging about our last trip this past June. Yeah I know...we are 7 months late...get over it!
I added posts about the Behind the Seeds Tour and the "Monorail Crawl" we did. Just one more day to blog and we can move onto pregnancy stuff and getting ready for the little mouseketeer coming in April!

I haven't checked out your blog lately ~ glad to see there is something new to read and look at! I won't say anything about your report taking a long time. I'm a bit behind these days too
