I'm with you on character interaction - I have no idea what to say or do and just feel silly!

Looking forward to reading more.
Yes, I loved the projections and the purple fairy lights were stunning.

Ohh so it must have been 2013 when we saw FOLK in the old theatre. Trips really do blend into one. Blimey.

Glad I’m not alone on the character meets - I’m a grown woman and they still give me the fear.

I had tears in my eyes after FoP so you're not the only one! It was just so breathtaking and I was overcome with emotion, haha. Then again, I also cried at Rivers of Light so maybe I'm just getting soft in my old age.

I didn't think the cheeseburger pods were that gherkiny but I do love the little green blighters and I think it's easier to pick up on tastes of things that you hate! Coriander to name but one.

We sat at that very same little red table in AK and had a lovely rest - it was pretty much the only quiet place we found during our visits to AK.

Those photos of Andy tapping his magic band on the height sign have really tickled me

I'm glad it wasn't just me that got a little weepy after the ride. I didn't get emotional during Rivers of Light but I think Andy did - the emotion of "What the heck have I just watched?"

Ahh I thought you were my food twin so surprised to hear you love a gherkin! No to gherkins but most definitely down with coriander!

Haha - I told him that about the height sign photos and he is very happy to have amused.

A full on day and yes to the fire eater
I didn’t get the Starbucks mugs last year but now wish I had, not sure about the new designs though - I thought the torpedoes were crabs!

Just catching up. What an entertaining read! The scenario in Tusker House made me laugh. Can just imagine it now.

Also love love love Expedition Everest!

Looking forward to reading more.

The fire eater is definitely a highlight of the show...

I like the new designs, I don't think they are quite as "classic" as the previous year though. And yes, I can totally see crabs (as it were)!
