Here I came to comment as I couldn't remember if I commented on your first set of questions, and realized that I had, but then found a whole new set of questions. I also never commented on your Escape from Africa. I could have NEVER done that trip, and to have so many things out of my control like that I would have been a complete and total basket case. I suppose if I were traveling with just me, but I'm so accustomed to doing everything with Fran and looking out for her all the time, I've lost sight of reality as a solo person. I'm always in awe of what it's like say when Jill and I are touring Disney all by ourselves and such.
I'm glad you were able to make your plane and get back to civilization and such!
1. Have you ever had a marg from La Cava, and if so what is your favorite flavor?? I order something different every time I go, because I can't choose!
I've had one with you! I'm a margarita purist. I usually go for the Cadillac one with a side of Grand Marnier.
(There are some lesser delicious treats as well.)
Fran loves the Lefse!
2. Can someone please explain this statue to me? Is she nude? Running? What is she running from? Be as creative as you'd care to be.
No clue but the closest I could get was that in Denmark there is a music festival called the Roskilde Festival. It's four days long and sort of similar to Coachella, one of the "things" at the Festival is a Naked Run around the Camp Site, one each Male and Female winner receive tickets to the next year's festival.
3. Be honest, have you even spent any time looking at the displays in the Stave Church??
I'm not sure I've even been in the Stave Church or where it is!
4. I'd like to hear your opinions on the changes in the Norway Pavilion. Who remembers the super awesome Viking Ship there? My kids LOVED climbing all over that thing!
Well I miss the Troll. I heard that the Viking ship was practically falling apart because the wood rotted so they had to get rid of it. I don't remember it though.
5. Did Steppe buy anything from Karamell Kuche? Has she ever? Have you?
I'm gonna have to say yes, for the love of god, how could you not? And if you haven't WHY??????? We usually stop there on our first day of the trip and buy $50-100 worth of stuff!
6. The gondolas are obviously representative of Venice, but what Italian place does the Plaza area represent?
Since all the buildings are also representative of Venice, I'm gonna go with that.
7. Now for a bonus! What is YOUR most and least favorite Pavilions in WS?? Go the extra mile and rank them!
My rankings are mostly based on the Food and Drink available in the countries, the more good restaurants or quick places for booze in that pavillion the higher the rating it got!
Mexico - 8
France - 8
Italy - 7
Japan - 7
Germany - 6
England - 6
Morocco - 6
Canada - 4
China - 4
America - 3
Norway - 2
You've done well there! I don't remember it being a real sushi bar, which was probably before I started going regularly.
I think that was on my very first trip with Fran. Back before she was diagnosed with RA and she used to eat raw fish too.
I did, but guess what?? I'll be there in Sept., 2019 too.
I don't get there until sometime after October 1st. We have to be in Orlando on the 10th of October, so we'll probably be tacking on 5 days prior at WDW.
