What a great way to end the evening--visiting resorts and seeing fireworks!
More like seeing fireWORK!
I just don't make them enough of a priority, I guess. I'm always thinking, next time, I'll line up early....but, then I don't!
I love riding the rails. You look fantastic btw. Love your dress!
You're right though. That one pic mkes you seem much shorter than you are.
eta: Forgot to add that's one cool welcoming committee. lol
Thanks! And aren't those little guys so cute?
Lots of OKW lovers say they like to hang out by the door lights there.
Ugh, what is up with that?! You really look miniature!! But the dress is adorable!
Ummmmm....EAT?? No......DRINK?? Ugh, this is so hard! You guys are really just so unpredictable!
Ok- serioiusly- it's like I'm a little teapot- short and stout!!
Ironically, some perv on Photobucket made some skanky comment about that pic- I just don't get it!
HAHA! Surprise!! We went for a bike ride!
After which we went to eat and drink.
Oh Ellen - such a pretty dress and Pods looks quite daper in his suit and tie. Your dinner at V&A looks amazing. I made Denny get up and come look at the pictures last night. I oohed and ahhed so many times, he had no choice. Then I said, "Wow - I REALLY want to go there". And he said, "Maybe for our 50th anniversary".
So thirty years from now when you see two octogenarians rolling into V&A's with their walkers, you'll know we finally made it!
But, all kidding aside, once we got those kids in college and we start heading down on longer solo trips, I am SO there!!!!!! And the wine - how did you stand up after all that wine????
As someone else said, I probably would be riding the rails all night. It sounded like - try this course - wine, here's your second course - wine, 3rd course - wine, and so on. That's a lot of courses to pair to wine, but I think I'm up for the challenge!!!!
We justified the expense with it was in lieu of my birthday dinner and our anniversary dinner- which we usually go into the city or some high end thing for anyway. And it
really isn't too much wine. It's about a half a glass with 6 courses- and it takes 3 hours or more. Many, many people are doing this pairing, and there is no one stumbling out of there or acting drunk. Remember, it goes with a lot of food!
What a great bike ride!! I love that y'all rode from the resort over to DTD...I didn't even think about being able to do that!
And I must say-you should work for Disney. It seems that you've sold me on just about every resort you've stayed at. First it was Hilton Head (where we'll be taking my Mom in May), then Vero Beach, and now Old Key West! Wow!
That's what my friends all say- that I should work for Disney- I wish I did work for their PR Dept!! But probably 99% of us on these boards could do that job well, we all love it so much. I feel like there is something positive to say about every one of the DVC places I've stayed- they all have something good about them, and they all are unique. Of course, all have drawbacks, too, but I choose to focus on the positive attributes rather than the negatives- because life is too short to look for ways to be unhappy.
I'm so glad you're going to HHI!!!
I wish it were closer for us- like say, the distance from here to OBX (about 7 or 8 hours). It would be MUCH easier to go for quick trips then. I really want to go for Thanksgiving, or I'd love to go for the day after Christmas through New Years...or Spring Break (especially next year because Easter is soo late in 2011) well, hopefully I will, someday!!
I fell in love with The Basin store, could have done some serious damage to my bank acct.
Great up dates Ellen!!! Loved the dress and Pods looked sooooo "Dapper" in the suit !!!Will have to check out Basins in February!!!!
If you want an idea of what the Basin store sells, look at
