      Yup, topgolf is a no for me! I usually sit and drink and watch others actually (maybe) hit the ball. LOL

    I think Alan is also Sam. And that’s the highest compliment I can give someone. He literally did all the work and Frodo got all the credit.

    I’m not a huge LOTR fan, but I can appreciate themed accommodations like this. The fantasy vibes and the lore behind the resort are so freaking cool, and it just doesn’t even look like you’re in the middle of Tennessee. I’m so psyched y’all got to live your hobbit dreams there!

    Okay ya’ll have convinced me - planning a Tennessee trip in early December-after Dollywood Christmas stuff has started but before the true crowds get there and I may have to throw in a night at ancient lore village! For some reason I think it would be even more magical in late fall. IDK why 🤷🏻‍♀️

    HOW DOES IT FEEL TO LIVE MY DREAM!? AHHHHHHHHHHHH! But for real though. The LOTR extended editions are movies I watch every single year. This place looks amazing. Big thanks to Molly, Alan, and Max for finding these cool places and bringing them to us. The music change during the archery part took me out l0l.

    Adding this to my list of places to visit! I highly recommend looking into Ravenwood Castle here in Ohio. It has similar themed rooms but in a castle setting. There is a cafe/bar on site and they have dinner add-on. Breakfast is included and delicious. They have themed event weekends. Gaming is a huge thing there and they have tons of games to borrow and dedicated spaces to play. It could easily be combined with a visit to Cedar Point and Kings Island.

    Always enjoy your videos. They’re always full of info and you guys always make it fun. The tank over the commode brought me way back. I had to be 3 or 4 years old and we had the wooden tank that held the water with a chain to flush lol yes way back. I remember as a child thinking, how does the water stay in there. By the time I was 5 or 6 we didn’t have it anymore so it must’ve been when we moved from Manhattan into Brooklyn. It’s a memory that’s always been very vivid to me. I was born in 1956 and the world was a different place. America was striving for better and I feel lucky for having been born at that time. I’m not saying things were perfect but there was a unity and things were changing for the better. Ok I won’t go on lol 😊

    To echo other comments, Alan is Sam not only for all the other excellent qualities but also because I can totally see him packing some salt from home in case he gets to make a roast chicken on the road to Mordor

    You guys should check out Earth and Sky Dwellings in Asheville, NC.
    They have Dragons Knoll(under ground hobbit house), Wizard hollow(mini Hogwart), Alchemy(wizarding them in the ground)and some other cute treehouses. They are currently working on the Phoenix(certain Spaaaace ship themed) the amazing blue ridge Mountain Views. We took our daughter for her HS graduation and spent 2 nights in Wizard Hollow and then did a tour of The Biltmore Estates . 🙂

    Continental breakfast is traditionally associated with hotels in Europe (the 'continent' people from the UK would visit). In my experience, it usually includes cheese, cold cuts, bread, pastries, and yogurt and cereals like muesli. So that breakfast seemed continental adjacent!

    @DLFH Місяць тому

    This feels like a fun excursion and somewhat immersive spot to unplug from the world. If you look at it as an event space with available times between events to stay there then it seems like a fun overnight excursion, but if someone goes into it thinking bungalo hotel with events there may be some disappointment. However, the berry-yogurt cup is something you find on a continental breakfast but not in any way shape or form is the continental breakfast.

    A continental breakfast is typically bread and pastries, fresh fruit, juice, and coffee/tea. Bonus if it includes yogurt, milk, and cereal varieties. A yogurt parfait cup with coffee doesn’t qualify in my book.

Florida has so many other things other than universal and Disney St. Petersburg so many museums specialty museums the Salvit Dali museum is in Saint Pete. They have a aquarium. Also there is the largest butterfly area screened in area in the world in Coconut Creek. They also have the have a Japanese outdoor area garden and also an eating area. In western Boca Raton. There’s monkey, jungle parrot jungle. There’s also the airboats rides that see an alligator in the wild. The things to do in the keys are endless. ❤
