That ALOT of Konk Kooler! Looks so good. Did you finish it? I may have to make some later today.

We couldnt finish it all. The slushy part started to liquify. I put what was left over(about a pitcher full) in the fridge. Maybe I will have some to float in pool with

Do you think that telling a officer that you were speeding to get to Disneyworld could get you out of a ticket?

Well, I'm not sure about all the other states, but that won't work in Georgia. And, yes, I know this from first hand experience.

Ouch!, that could not have added to the enjoyment of the trip. I am glad we fly, I know I would end up driving too fast to get there. And from Texas that would give plenty of officers from many states a chance to "say hello".

Congrats Terri and Michael!!!

I feel so proud when I check the boards and see how you two have really progressed our way to a record. It brings a tear to my eye.

That could be a real bummer on any trip ...

You go Ian! .... That's one way to relax in the pool!

Sorry, I shouldn't laugh but last time we drove down there I really want to put my foot on the gas petal to make Tim go faster. I guess it's a good thing I didn't.

Sounds like a good plan to me.

Happy Sunday Dispeeps!

Please remember to hydrate, rest, and take your B vitamins, esp. after all the lovely libations this weekend...

Just a Sunday afternoon drive by.

Heads up to anyone who has already done online check in for the SSMC ... it's being reported that the terminal and parking garage will not open until 11am, starting on 8/1. So, if you have an arrival time already scheduled, you'll want to keep an eye on your time as it should be adjusted before we cruise.

It's ok. It was 2:00 am and we were traveling about 75 mph. All this traffic including a semi truck came flying up and passed me. Next thing I know there's a state trooper coming. He passed me up then slowed down and pulled me over. Junior thinks he saw the "GTP" on our car and assumed it was us that he clocked. When he told us he clocked "us" at 95 mph, we both repeated it as a question/exclamation. I had my kids (4 & 1 yrs old) in the backseat. Even without the kids in the car I have NEVER nor will I EVER drive that fast! The guy wrote me a ticket and I respectfully told him I was not signing it because it was not my car that he clocked going that fast. So he stood there for what seemed like forever and was probably only 30 seconds and he handed my license and registration back and told me to have a nice evening. (at 2:00 am) I still can't believe he gave up on the ticket, but I'm very thankful he did. I couldn't take the time off work to go back to Georgia to fight it in court. If I had been speeding, I would have accepted the fact that I got caught but I wasn't. And I know for a fact because we were in a Grand Prix that had the heads up display so I didn't even have to look down at the dashboard to check my speed.

So the moral of the story is don't speed in Georgia. AND be respectful to police officers. Even when they are wrong.

Glad to hear that he didn't pursue the ticket. You guys still at Shawn and Milford's?

Thanks Karen. They don't start boarding until noon or so, right?

I think the "official" word is noon. But, I've read 11:45am is more typical (as long as there aren't issues).

 

[TIGGERmetoo]

I wonder if they don't open the terminal until later if they will just have people waiting outside instead of inside the terminal. Maybe people won't tend to show up at the terminal so early.
