Don't you just love the look on his face!! He was very patient in letting me take that pic! But he was ready for his dessert!!!! And it was well worth the wait!!! DELISH!!!

This is a great shot! And that dessert...well the whole meal...sounds AMAZING! Bluezoo has been on my radar for a while, ever since we tried Shula's and fell in love, I've had those Swolphin restaurants on my radar.

I've heard great things about the Mandara, so glad you both enjoyed your time! Not much beats a good massage.

You know Brook, he's only that good for Jen....
And yes that massage was heavenly!!!

Finally catching up on the TR! I have been on vacation and I am way behind on most reports. Great updates!! I cannot wait to see the new features of HM and POTC. The massage sounds amazing and I cannot wait to hear more!! I almost tried Bluezoo in March but backed out. I will have to try it soon!!

 

[jenjolt]

Ok, I am now booking a massage at that spa for February!! Awesome!

WOOT WOOT! You won't regret it!!! You will feel completely spoiled!!!

Jen good luck finishing getting ready for the new school yr, my kids all go back in 2weeks. It's a 3 school yr again for me juggling act w/ schedules, homework, etc kudos to you teachers and all that you do love the trip back in time the Spa sounded wonderful back in '98 a girlfriend and I did the now gone spa at Disney Institute ... Think I should consider a spa visit during my next girls trip hmmmm. The dinner looked. Awesome too

Thanks!!! I have gotten much done, but there is still alot to do LOL!!!! Spa was amazing as was dinner!!!

You know, I have always wanted to try one of the spa treatments at WDW but it still has never happened...and it wont likely happen on this coming one either! But that spa looks unbelievably beautiful! I'll have to remember that you've said it is the best!

Baylor's dessert looks amazing! What I wouldn't give to have that as my lunch today!

Mandara was amazing! So relaxing and a great way to spend the morning! I will definitely be back!!!

Baylor's dessert was fantastic!! SO YUMMY!!

I would love to go to a spa at Disney but it's just not going to happen on a family trip. I agree with mousescrapper that a girls weekend spa visit may be in order.

It is a perfect way to spend a girls' weekend!!! Such a lovely place!!!

Megan and Matt just picked Harper up, so the house is quiet for the first time since Tuesday. Well except for the Red Sox and the Yankees playing baseball on the TV.
It's certainly been a crazy week trying to get the classroom put together with a three year old in tow. For everything I got done I had a huge mess to clean up...
Plus many conversations to be had...
One of my four papers are written. Zero of the two power points are ready. When is this due you ask?
That would be Monday evening at 5:30...

Right now though, I'm just sitting here...

So how are you doing this week? I'm exhausted LOL!!! Being back full time is always rough the first week or two as I get used to my schedule!! However I'm having fun getting my back office cleared out and setting up my room!

 

[jenjolt]

I saw that picture on Facebook and laughed out loud!!!



Oh, heavens! I can just imagine!!! I have a to-do list for today, but I don't know -- I think I need some "fun" time after this past week. I might feel differently a little later, but maybe not...

I have stolen an idea from my AP and have put my to do list on a dry erase board in big letters so it is in my face the entire day!!! It keeps me focused and I seem to be getting al ot more done that way LOL!!! Hope you are having a good first week back!!!!! Or is it 2nd?

I don't think hiking would be my "thing" either!!! Unless maybe I'm hiking around Disney!!!

LOL I used to hike when we lived in Alaska, but I think I have put those days behind me LOL

 

[jenjolt]

Ohhhhh, I need to comment on the blissful spa morning! Jen was such a darling to treat me to such pampering!!!

This was my first real massage...
At school we have had short chair massages done for teacher appreciation week but never the whole nine yards and it was amazing! I have had one since I have been home and since that have purchased two groupons for additional trips to the spa! Look what you have started young lady!!

LOL!! Well in my defense massages are great for stress relief and in our profession sometimes you just need to get away and pamper yourself!!

I was so nervous you weren't going to like it!! I was so relieved when you said it was amazing!!!! I really enjoyed that morning!!!

I am SO jealous of all your good eats. Blue Zoo looks amazing! Sadly I had never heard of it till I read it on here and now I want to try it! The massage also sounds lovely

I have to give all you teachers all the credit in the world. I'm going to school for early childhood ed and want to work with older infants and young toddlers. No older than preschoolers. Preschool is my age cutoff.

You definitely have to give Blue Zoo a try, especially if you like seafood! Although the pork dish was out of this world!!!!!!

Awww...well I'm going to give you credit because I can't handle ones that tiny LOL!! I tried for awhile when I did child care but high schoolers are my cup of tea!! I can't wait to get my new group of them in a couple of weeks!!!!

 

[wigdoutdismom]

First day back tomorrow. Just meetings though. No students until next Wednesday!

We officially go back next week too but I feel like I have been back for over a week now!!! LOL!!! We get a few extra days of no students! Ours don't return until the 23rd.

 

[jenjolt]

Hey, we were just at Fenway to see the Red Sox play the Yankees! Did you see me wave?
No? Well, I was right behind those two big guys with the Jeter & Rodriguez shirts.

Hope your papers and PPTs were nice enough to stew themselves into readiness while you enjoyed the game. Due tomorrow? Then methinks Tuesday would be a good day for a massage. Good luck!

LOL I hope she saw you guys LOL!!!!!

I think she should go get a massage before the students come back too!!!!!!

Blue Zoo oh how I sing your praises, your crab nachos, your rock shrimp tacos!!!! OH Michelle you are so gonna love it! LOVE it! I cannot wait for this one!!!!!! SPA... hmmmm.... where is that price list?

Oh WigD you and your procrastination!! I think we all have that in common!!! Good luck with your work! You are so going to need our vacation!

Oh BlueZoo!!!! I know how much you love it!! I would gladly share crab nachos with you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO YUMMMY!!!!

Today was our first day with kids. They came for a half day, and then they don't come back until Monday. That gives us tomorrow to work out kinks in transportation and get an idea of what our numbers will be. I had 25 on my roster and 22 showed up.

After all the meetings all week and more to come tomorrow, I am drained. We got the new format for our lesson plans and new evaluation system. Even coming here to read trip reports, which is usually pure joy, is almost too much for my head to handle right now.

Congrats on your first day!!! Although I hear ya!! It might not be until this weekend until I check in again... LOL!!!

 

[jenjolt]

The spa & Blue Zoo both looked amazing!!!

I hadn't heard of Blue Zoo either until Michelle mentioned it on her report & now I read about it here. Looks delish -- I'll have to remember it for the future!

I can't wait to hear details about your DIS meet & the rest of your trip!

Yes I definitely recommend Blue Zoo to everyone! It is a fabulous place to eat!! And the Dolphin is a gorgeous hotel!!!!!!

Hopefully I will update tomorrow morning with some PTR and TR news!!

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Please do!
I'd like some info on this trip you have coming up....
I'll just share that we had Harper's 3rd birthday party at our pool this evening. We had a large turnout and everyone had a great time!

YAYAYAY for a great party!! WOOT WOOT!! Hope Harper had a great one!!!!! Here's to one of the cutest 3 year olds I know!!

Wait a minute...I thought I was letting you do all the planning LOL

 

[stace208]

Happy birthday to Harper! Pool parties are the best!

Blue Zoo looked amazingly good! I am just not sure Ellie could find anything to eat. She is very, very picky. I will have to check out the menu though. We are traveling with my niece and her husband next summer and I know they would love it.

Good luck to you guys as you return to school. I don't go back until the 25th and kids until Sept. 6th. I do have a leadership team meeting tomorrow though which is too much like work for my liking. Trying to squeeze out the last little bit of summer...

Hiya ladies!! I know you are all busy with the first days of school, but I wanted to stop and say howdy and say that I was just really getting used to the idea that in TWO MONTHS, a mere 60 DAYS, we are on our way to MNSSHP and the F & W!!! YAY!!!!!

 

[vamassey1]

Sorry I got behind on updates, but I'm all caught up. I'm loving all the updates and chatter. I'm dying to see your rooms. Please post pictures.

How great that y'all got to spend some time with Brook. I would love to have a personal tour of HM. Lunch at Liberty Tree looks so good. I was really pushing hard for this on our trip in Feb but got out voted. Le Cellier also looked good. So sorry you had such a long wait. We've only been there once and really loved it. What a great treat to have a spa visit. Just the right thing for you.

I am very familiar with your song title. It was very popular here, I can't wait to hear how your trip got that title.

We played the ice game on our last dinner for our last trip. I just posted that update. The girls and I had fun playing but we couldn't get Dennis to join.

Sounds like Baylor likes his meat. Danielle is a meat eater too. She can even eat more meat than me.

Looking forward to more updates.
