Universal Orlando Resort – Dining Well! — The Soup Diva

Greetings, dear followers! T-Bird and I have just recently returned from our 3rd visit to Universal Orlando Resort in sunny central Florida. We were there in September 2015 to see the updates since our family vacation in 2001 (especially the Wizarding World of Harry Potter); and we discovered a wonderful hotel on site that we […]

From my wife’s recipe/food blog about our dining adventure during our recent vacation to Universal Studios Orlando and its Cabana Bay Beach Resort.

This is an extreme case of falling asleep on the job. You never know where you might end up.

Snapchat

snapcode-300x300I am thinking about caving and joining in on the Snapchat craze going around. Do any of you use it? What are your experiences with it? Seems like it’s a platform for everyone, however it’s funny when older folks start using something the younger set have been using for awhile the thing loses its cool factor. Input welcome.

Zootopia, A Great Modern Disney Flick

Ninety percent of the world is prey and 10 percent is predator at least that is what the movie Zootopia says about the world it exists in. I tend to say that is about what it is in the real world. Some of us are prey, some of us are predators. Can we live with each other? I don’t know but what I do know is that predators can make life hard for the weak and defenseless.

Zootopia is a delightful movie with a lot of social messages. It’s about opportunity, equality, cooperation, family, love and peace. The core of this movie is the dream of a female rabbit wanting to make the world a better place. I can dig that. Animals coexisting with one another in a place where the balance of life is a part of its utopia. This movie has a great cast and is very well done. I find it better than “Frozen” and “UP”.

On a personal note: After spending a few days in the Universal Studios ecosphere I felt like I betrayed them somehow.

Post-Vacation Ramble

676e8-12328402_1578270295820412_475425029_nI am still on vacation but I am coming up for air so to speak. There are some things that need to be done which are being taken care of. Being back in “the real world” can be a challenge especially when there is news that impacts you. At the moment I am glad to be home although I do miss Orlando. Vacation does not last forever, it’s not meant to. A break is good every now and then however. It’s nice to be in another state both literally and figuratively. A nap or two before Monday will be nice and perhaps some fun around town will help finish this time off from work. I am looking forward to the next vacation although it will be down the road.

From the New York Times Archives Twitter feed featuring reporting the sinking of the Titanic 104 years ago. Real people were impacted and lots of things changed because of the tragic events of the time.
