Play of the year

Our favorite is the Swan due to its location (walk or boat to Epcot and Hollywood) and being Marriott. It’s a Disney partner so you still get the same perks of staying at a Disney hotel. Pop is a good budget option, we just found the rooms to be too cramped for us and didn’t love the food court.

You will hate yourself when purchasing the lightning lanes but when you get there you will be very glad you have them.

There is something great to enjoy at every park. If you want to go around the world at Epcot, get your kids a passport to get stamped. It gives them something to do while you enjoy the drinks. My personal favorites are Animal Kingdom and Hollywood.

Do a little research on food and dining options. There is a lot of very good food in Disney but there is also a lot of not so good. There are a lot of good Facebook reels that highlight Disney food.

Thank you Max. Thank you Lewis.

If it’s a texture thing then you have nothing to worry about after a day in a crock pot.

What case does Russell possibly have to plead?

Everyone but the podium about to be down a lap.

George not being able to pass Hadjar is the perfect representation of what this race has become.

I was really excited at the possibility of a VER-HAM front row for about 15 seconds.

Here’s a note I’ve had saved on my phone from our trip in 2024. We went for the Open. Spent a few days in Edinburgh then moved over to Glasgow. Kingsbarn is a beautiful course, highly recommend it.

To do:
-Edinburgh Castle- try to get morning tickets; less crowded
-Palace of Holyrood House - favorite
-Victoria Street (Diagon alley)
-Deans Village
-St Giles Cathedral
-Grassmarket in Old Town- lots of pubs and great view of castle at the end of the square
-day trip to Stirling Castle, Doune Castle - look into Explorer Pass if doing 2 or more castles
-Loch Lomand & Trossachs National Park
-day trip to St Andrews
-Deanston distillery warehouse experience - we did this after Stirling castle, in the area

Turned on the replay and Apple gives the option of the full race or “race in 30”. Seems like a good option if you are in a time crunch or know it was a bad race.

I am digging the driver feeds
