Thanks for all the comments on the pictures.

As many of you have asked, Lysol Antibacterial Kitchen Cleaner and a bleach/water mixture were the 2 cleaners that he tested that didn't culture any bacteria. The others tested were an alcohol/water mixture, Lysol wipes and a Palmolive soap/water mixture. He used plain water as a control.

Welcome home to the UPers. Off to look at their pictures.

Pictures 40-41 show our Segway shirts that Deb designed.

Was that the first time you did the Segway tour? What did you think?

I had to chuckle at this... When we lived in Ohio (and Kristin was born at Miami-Valley Hospital in Dayton) we called natives from that great state "Ohisians" (prounounced O-hee-shuns). We still call Krisin our little Ohisian.

Chuck was born a CheeseHead (Wisconsin) while the girls & I were born trolls (born below the Mackinac bridge in Michigan). We have all lived in the U.P. more than half our lives so we consider ourselves Yoopers now.

All people from Michigan were called Michiganders but some idiot politicians decided that they didn't like that so actually went through the motions of having us claimed Michiganians.

Holy crap, Vicki! Where did you get those costumes? They are FABULOUS! It looks like you all had such a good time. As much as I enjoy going to WDW with my little kids, you make it look like we will enjoy it just as much when they are adults. At least I hope so!

I can guarantee it!

Thanks. We bought Chuck's vest, my outfit and Becky's dress from costumecraze.com. Katrina's outfit was put together from clothes we found at Goodwill and accessories from Clare's. Katrina is wearing the hat from my costume, Chuck & I are wearing our Pirate Mickey Ears and Becky has her crown that she wore last year. Other than the rain, we had a wonderful time at the party.

You got to see Mushu and Abu!!!

Becky got quite a few more autographs this trip. Genie, Mushu, Abu, the Palace Royal Guard, Aladdin finally (we have missed him for the last couple of years), Jafar, Mr. Penguin, Alice, Beast (can't sign), Anastasia, Drizella, and Jiminy Cricket.

Becky, Chuck & I did it last year. We enjoyed it so much that we wanted Katrina to have a chance to do it. Katrina says she has now done it and never has to do it again. Becky thinks twice is enough. Chuck & I really enjoyed it the second time as well and would like to do the one at Fort Wilderness sometime in the future.

Welcome home, Vicki! Can't wait to hear all about it.

Glynis - Sounds like a fun day trip and party.

Terry - Glad your exciting evening was a safe one.

Denise - Buckets of that John's hints of flavor are a sign of good things to come. I can imagine that list!

What a stellar recap, Tia! I think I will borrow it!

Vicki - Love your pics! It looks like everyone really had a great time! I'm looking forward to hearing more about it!

We've never seen Abu or Beast. I know we have seen Jafar but I can't remember if DS posed with him or not.

Im going to head to bed..im exhausted for some reason-

I signed up for TGM yesterday, has anyone used him before, if so what do you think?

We depend on TGM for his best days. I did a lot of reading to find out his logic. I probably wouldn't need him any more but always register each year to verify. We have come back several times where others said how horrible it was while it seemed empty to us because we went to TGM's recommended parks on the days those complaining were at the busy ones.

I did it for the first time last year. I had a rough time in the begining-trying to stay still but the CM was great and helped me get calm again and I ended up really loving it. I would do it again if I had the chance.

A coworker did a night time one in Washington DC. That sounds really cool!

Jennifer - I don't envy you with all that snow. I'm glad it wasn't here!

Debbie - thanks for the update on Heidi. Glad everything is okay.

Deb - Glad the camper and attic are dry.


Nicholas and Alyssa had their spring pictures done. I'm not real happy with Nicholas' shirt and the background. I had no idea it was going to be so busy.

I love the pictures. Such cute kids!

We've never seen Abu or Beast. I know we have seen Jafar but I can't remember if DS posed with him or not.

Abu was out for the Pirates & Princess party. Later in the evening when we went by the same area, Jasmine was out instead.

Beast was in France. He is a regular with Belle there now the way I understand. Mushu was in China. We almost missed him. He was up by the temple.

Chuck wants to buy one. I don't know where he thinks he'd ride it. Well actually he keeps saying how cool it would be during our camping trips. We don't have sidewalks out in the country where we live.
