Walking to Disney World

Apple Watch fitness app on a person's wrist
Snapped this at 11:30am. Still have 300-400 meters to go. We’re meeting at 12-noon.

Walking to Walt Disney World never gets old.

The privilege to do it at a moment’s notice.

The prerogative to do it any day of the year.

The experience to know the shortcuts.

The ability to walk far.

“Church” right here.

In Disney’s spirit

Disney leaders at a January 2025 reunion
L-R: Rick Allen, the organizer. Kim and Sheryl.

Working (serving) in Disney Leadership was (is) a heaven and hell juxtaposition.

Heaven is in the Disney Mission to serve.

Hell is in the work and sacrifice it often takes to operate at the highest level all day, every day, day after day, for an entire career.

And like my prolific daily blogging, there is never a day off.

Heaven is in the team that works together to create Magic.

Hell is in the relentless public expectation for ‘perfection’.

Ps. Thank goodness for the concept of Onstage and Backstage.

Disney retired and active

Disney leadership reunion
Last night at Celebration’s Town Tavern. Mostly Resort executives, present and retired.

Retired Disney.

Active Disney.

Executive, senior, middle, and front line.

Doesn’t matter.

Everyone is cut from the same cloth.

The cloth of Walt Disney excellence.

Stumbled upon the Flagship Walgreens

Philadelphia best Walgreens
On the walk back from dinner, we needed to get something.

Three story Walgreens with escalators and perfect moments.

Getting healthy is one thing. Staying there is the real challenge.

The place was unlike any Walgreens i’ve ever seen – we have tons in Florida.

Amazing.

Walgreens flagship store is at this corner.

 

Stumbled upon the Flagship Walgreens.

It was surreal and maybe, very loosely, a spiritual experience.

Too much too soon?

College buddy reunion
One handful of early arrivals.

 

When you reunite with people you see only on an annual basis it is so exciting to catch up in person. Last night there where only a handful of us. Today, another three handfuls arrive.

And when you reunite with people you haven’t seen in a decade or two, it gets even more exciting.
