So Not Worth $9.29

This is the Steak Gumbo found at Royal St. Veranda in New Orleans Square.  
We got caught in a "We're tired and hungry and don't feel like walking" scenario and this was right in front of us.  I had wanted to try the Steak Gumbo, which had been recommended to me, but once I saw the price it somehow soured me on the idea.  But I was tired and hungry and didn't feel like walking and it was right in front of me.  And I was sick.  (This was the trip with my husband when we didn't even set foot into DCA during our 3-day stay, because I was sick.)  So something along the lines of soup was a must.  In all fairness, the Steak Gumbo was good.  Just not $9.29 good.  Plus it might have been different if I was a bread person.  Which I'm not.  Especially not sourdough bread.  So I basically paid $10 for a few bites of soup.  And apparently I'm still kicking myself over that poor decision.

A Favorite Way To Relax

Taking a ride on the Sailing Ship Columbia.

Funny...some of the things that I wouldn't give a second of my time to as I was growing up are now some of my favorites.  Like Main Street transportation.  And Sailing Ship Columbia.

Well, This Didn't Last Long

The Peanut Butter and Jelly Soda, once served at Carnation Cafe.
It was fun to try.  But just one time.

The Time I Was Stabbed By A Toothpick

While eating my Fried Green Tomato Sandwich at Hungry Bear, I painfully came across a broken toothpick as it stabbed me in the mouth.  The small part had broken off and was buried in my sandwich.  Just for fun, after retrieving the broken piece from my mouth, I put it in my Zesty Slaw for an "I Spy" type of picture.

A Memorable Cast Member

I remember she was telling us about her fiance, also a Disneyland Cast Member.
Later the same day, she was working at Indiana Jones and she remembered us.

In Memory of My Dad

Today is his funeral.

I can't ride through this section of the Disneyland Railroad without thinking of my dad.
When we came upon this dinosaur, we could always count on him to say, "That dinosaur has been chewing on that weed for a looooooooong time."
