I think about certain Disney World experiences that went away due to the COVID-19 pandemic. One of them was a hidden gem at Disney\u2019s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa<\/a>, and recently, Disney invited me to experience the newly reopened Garden View Lounge \u2013 Tea Experience.<\/p>\n The experience calls for company. A couple of colleagues joined in on the tea party, and from the food to the conversation to the sweeping garden views, it\u2019s difficult to find a more elegant offering at a resort already celebrated for its grandeur.<\/p>\n From left: Kaia Poshall, Stephen Twining, Haley Coomes & Kara Moeller post at the Garden View Lounge – Tea Experience.
