Now it’s Time… To Say Goodbye… To all our Company…

We’re Back!! What a Vacation!!
I’ve never walked so much in my life!! My blisters have blisters! But it was great. The heat was an almost-intolerable 95 degrees+ all week long but good old Disney always had an Air Conditioned gift shop or food stand near by.

We saw all four parks plus Downtown Disney and Typhoon Lagoon (one of the water parks) and it only rained for one afternoon.

We didn’t get much sleep all week and Carrie started having a hard time with the outside-heat-to-inside-air-conditioner over and over again all week long, so when we got home Monday, she needed a doctor’s appointment. Sinus infection and bronchitis. She’s on a bunch of pills but says she wouldn’t have changed anything (except maybe getting sick) because she had such a great time.

I took over 200 pictures and am trying to figure out how to get them on the internet somewhere. Until then – these’ll have to do…

Leaving on a Jet Plane


That’s right ladies and gentlemen, the event that has been two years in the making…
using endless calling-card minutes…
requiring several dozen “one-last-thing” trips to Wal-Mart…
spending billions…uh, er, well, thousands of dollars…

TOMORROW IS VACATION!!!

Everything is packed and the house is a huge mess. Extra litter box for the cat…empty fridge… mail stopped… timer set… electronics unplugged (well, most of them anyway) and all luggage tagged and ready.

We’re even planning on making it easier to come home by hiding, erasing or throwing away all the Disney shit we’ve accumulated over the past year. We’ve got 4 or five Disney shows saved on the DVR, a half dozen Disney books from the library and itineraries and notes all over the place. Nobody wants to come home from Disney and see all that stuff. I hope the souveniers we bring home will be enough to remind us of how great it was.

The cab picks us up tomorrow at 6:30am and we’re on our way. It’s finally here.

We’ll see everybody in a week!!

Slippin’ me a Mickey

Finally!!

We got our Disney confirmation package. There’s still more to come in the mail (luggage tags for ‘Disney Magical Express’ – so cool, we give Hopkins Airport our luggage and we see it next in our rooms at Disney!) but we got the important stuff.

Carrie put together a plan to visit the parks revolving around the reservations we made at certain restaurants during our week. (P.S. thanks to the ‘Food Network’ for helping us decide which Disney restaurants we wanted to eat at). Check it out…
