I have seen seveal reviews of Tusker, and many,many more of Boma. In the end, I think I'd like to try both someday. Then again, I really have to think twice about ANY breakfast ressie I make. I really doubt I'd get my money's worth drinking coffee and having a small sampling of the fare.
I can understand you very well! I started with breakfast buffets at WDW because the friend I used to travel with loves large breakfasts. And while they don't make much sense for me economically, I still love to experience American breakfast fare at least once or twice on a trip to the US! After being absolutely disgusted on my first trip to visit my aunt that someone would offer be potatos for breakfast, I kind of grew to like it for the ethnic appeal it has to me.
I'm sad it's about time to wrap this up, but hey, another fantastic trip is just around the corner! How is that packing going??
What are you looking forward to most?
What packing?? I am still in the process of unpacking from my trip to Berlin - just returned yesterday. Tomorrow is laundry day and then I will start to pack on Friday at the earliest. But only because I will be busy running my 5k on Saturday!!
Really difficult to say what I am looking forward to the most... There are quite a few things:
Lunch at Agrabah Cafe in Adventureland on Sunday: a middle eastern food buffet in the most beautiful setting. It used to be a shop with a small tea shop integrated in it and Katharina and I had mint tea there in 1997. It was closed for quite some time and now is a restaurant.
Big Thunder Mountain (no Railroad in the name in DLP) - its faster and on an island - but also Space Mountain - our first love at DLP, it has inversions!
Tower of Terror: it openend after our last trip to DLP in their studios park.
A break in the bar at the
Disneyland Hotel: the bar has a view down Main Street!
Peter Pan's Flight: for some reason I think it is better at DLP, at least I remember it to be better there. I need to check it out!
Spending time with my sister and her best friend from school: I got to hang out with them quite a bit when we were teenagers (I think they loved having me driving them.
) and I haven't seen Katharina's friend for quite some time. It will be great to reconect! She and I will actually fly together from Nuremberg, so we will be able to catch up a little before meeting Katharina in Paris.
These are my highlights to look forward to. I wonder what Katharina's are?? Please, tell us, Katharina!
As for creamed corn- I'm skeptical. I don't think the Native Americans used milk so much. I do know that a HUGE part of the first Thanksgiving was oysters and clams from the nearby beaches.
Wow, you are taking this really serious! I get your point on the milk. It is very much a European thing (well, and some nomadic folks).However, both corn and turkey are foods we would not eat if nobody had brought them from the Americas to Europe. Same with potatos btw. My father loves to tell the story how they were originally planted as flowers in the gardens of kings.
Don't feel bad I only started reading in December so I had plenty to catch up on. Plus you always post such intresting things and give extra info (about Germany and attrations that have long since gone) that the wait adds to the suspense of the next adventure.
Can't believe your planning to post till the eve of your DLP trip I'm always a little frantic worrying that I forgot something that I have little time except to pack and repack
Thank you very much for your sweet compliment on our TR! It was a lot of fun to put it together.
Well, DLP really isn't so much a trip which makes you frantic. It is a much smaller place than WDW and easier to plan for. And we will be there for 2 full and 2 half days. We are expecting to be able to see everything we want without any problems. And since we won't be away for that long, there isn't that much packing involved. Oh, and my very organized sister provided a very neat document for us with everything we need to do and to pack for the trip!!
