Hi! Just wanted to intrduce myself!

Hello there! I am Athenna..(My real name is Jennifer) I am from Boston, MA...I am a DVC member since 2004..I have been going to WDW since 1978...I just turned 40...I am enagaged (2 years yesterday) to a wonderful guy, he proposed at Epcot as Illuminations (my fav) was starting, after a wonder dinner at the Bistro de Paris...I am also a huge fan of the POTC films...And all WDW music.
Looking forward to spending some time here on this site...This is a great site for me, as we had no children together (he has teens from his 1st marriage) I love the adult side of WDW clapping

Thanks all! clapping

Lizzy, I've tried almost everyone on their menu at least one...I love the bread service w/the dipping sauces...mmmmm.....I think my fav entree is the tandoori chicken...And they have South African wine that we cant get anywhere else....Its called Chakalaka..We always buy a bottle while we're there....They sell it now in the Moombasa Marketplace in AK, but we aren't getting to a park this time.
