    Do Not Die Today: Southern California, 2022 (COMPLETE 2/23)

    Well, that's great to hear! I know London is not a cheap city to visit. I had a lot of these on my list! I know it's impossible to see everything, so no matter what, we'll leave some meat on the bone. But it will be fun to try and see all that we can. Interesting. I've heard so many good...

    DDC XXXIV: The Original Home Of The DISDads!!!

    Well, that sucks. And maybe a DIS Dad sighting. Now I feel like I need to check my tires, just in case. We're spending this weekend in Florida as well. Taking my boys to the golf tournament in Jacksonville on Sunday. And my wife's 30th anniversary of her 20th birthday is Saturday.

    DDC XXXIV: The Original Home Of The DISDads!!!

    That seems awfully specific. Sounds like the voice of experience. :laughing: Exactly what it sounds like. Just kidding. Piggly Wiggly is a regional chain of supermarkets. I have no idea how they got their name and am too lazy to google it.

    Welcome home! Seems like Orlando airport is more regularly turning into chaos these days.

    That's how I roll. Well, I really appreciate you taking the time to keep coming back to read these, and I'm glad I amuse someone! I need to screenshot this to show my kids. Thank you so much. It was a trial for sure, but at the same time we got off easy compared to a lot of people. I'm just...

    Yeah, that "paying for 6 people" thing is still jumping up to bite us. I need these kids to start paying their own way. So I'll probably skip the bus. I think we'll end up trying to hit various attractions in geographical areas of the city so we can walk between them as best as we can. Near...

    On the plus side, I'd still be alive at the end. It's hard to turn off that internal editor, though. Especially when you know something isn't quite working.

    Do Not Die Today: Southern California, 2022 (COMPLETE 2/23)

    Hey, I kind of have that trait too. Mostly I procrastinate by doing vacation plans. I'm not big on beach only vacations, either. I can do it for a day, but then I get bored and want to go do something else. But hey, Delaware also has...um...a shopping mall. :laughing: Agree, you can't...

    Do Not Die Today: Southern California, 2022 (COMPLETE 2/23)

    :goodvibes Wow, that's a lot on the horizon! It's always great to have another trip to look forward to. And Hawaii is amazing! You will love it, for sure. I'm not wild about this purposeful avoidance of Delaware, though. What's up with that? You're missing out on all there is to do in...

    I have a British friend who lives in London and I even have trouble understanding him occasionally. They have a lot of turns of phrase I've never heard before. I'm sure a Scottish accent/dialect will throw me even further for a loop. But others have gone before me and figured it out. I hope...

    I'm sure we could come up with an excuse for that. I was talking with the boys about trying to get to an O's game this season.

    Fifty Hail Marys? Oh. Oh, that's much worse. This is a good summary of basically every decision I've ever made. Usually the dashboard is where we're drying out bathing suits on road trips. It has to, or else they wouldn't do it this way. A rare victory! Yet to be solved: who put that stew...

    DDC XXXIV: The Original Home Of The DISDads!!!

    I still grumble about the prices, and how hard they make it for large families like mine to be able to go. But the reality is that I still have a love for Disney parks and a desire to see them. I just don't go as often as I would if it were more affordable. That's about all I can do.

    Thank you! I hope you get as much joy out of your travels as we have. And thank you for being a faithful reader. Well, you know I agree wholeheartedly with that! It brings me great joy if I've had any part in inspiring you to travel with your own family. I hope it's brought you great joy...

    That is incredibly nice of you to say, thank you! And we are beyond blessed that Julie's issues weren't worse. We got off very easy, to be honest. Thank you so much! Hopefully I won't do anything stupid while trying to drive on the wrong side of the road.

    Hey Jill! Good to hear from you! :wave2: Glad I could give you an excuse to procrastinate. That's what friends do, right? This may not be the end...I just don't want to make promises I can't keep. Never say never. But if it is the end, thank you for being a faithful reader! I've enjoyed...

    I know a lot of people have said this while reading my writing. Yeah...it kinda sucks. I've missed talking with you and my other friends here. I should probably text more often. I'm a horrible text-message-sender. Good for you! I wish I could do that. Thank you! We are breathing a huge...
