That is more than alright, I was much more than 28 pages behind when I finally was able to get round to reading your report.

That video was taken in Toledo, Ohio or I guess to be more correct it was in Maumee, Ohio.

I'm the most normal one of the bunch.

To go along with the video I posted above, here are some family photos. You can make the judgment call on which of us is the most normal or should I say least crazy...

Mom's side of the family, the Americans.

Dad's side of the family, the Canadians (well really it is just us with Dad). Mom complains that we only take nice, normal pictures with him...

So, who do you think is the most normal one in the family? I vote for MARCUS, the dog.

Just a note on the kitchen sink at beaches and cream, I think I heard on the WDW radio show that it is free if one person can finish it in an hour. I think two of the people with Lou during his 24 hour broadcast from WDW last may did it.

i just assumed that was how all canadians were.



dont you have to tan in the snow, i thought it stayed white all yearup there.

Interesting, I had never heard that before!

We do have tanning salons for those who don't want to lay out in the snow.

Star Wars Weekends dates have officially been released! Luckily, the predictions that have been floating around were accurate and the first SWW this year is May 20-22 so no need to change my plans around. It is nice having this confirmation. I wonder why they always leave it so late to announce the dates? We are just over 3 months out.


In other news, I was playing with my camera at school today during break and was trying out one of the functions available, colour selection. It was really neat! You just point the camera at the subject you want to take a picture of and then the camera will take in the colours in the area and you can pick one to focus on. I got some funny results for some, I think when taking pictures of people you need to take into consideration their skin tone. Her are some pictures.

No colour selection

Focus on the yellow

Red

This one didn't work out so well. She was wearing a purplish/greyish shirt and it all just turned out grey.

The pink of my coat

Purple

Some at home shots

Overall it is a pretty cool function and I can't wait to try it out at WDW!

 

[All7OfUs]

you could do some Zombie stuff with that function... Just sayin'....

Don't give us any ideas. I'm sure that Alek and Erich would love to do a whole zombie thing. Last time it was ninjas taking over WDW, this time it will be a zombie apocolypse

 

[GeminiAngel]

What a cool feature!!! Zombies would be supercool!

Why don't they get into theater?

The last photo of you guys with your Dad is just disturbing!!

It will be great, rain or shine, hopefully a little more shine and a little less rain.

Wow, I love the colours on Minnie! It gives her a different look every time!

Um...where did Erich get the idea to go out like that?

You know, as crazy as your brothers are, I'd love to meet them someday.

I think I want to try the kitchen sink too! There'll be 6 of us, maybe we can actually finish it!

 

[PirateKate]

I bet you could get some cool Star Wars pictures using that color feature. Maybe one focused on a red or blue light saber or something.

 

[KatGarcia]

I have the color picker feature on my camera too, KC uses it more than me, it makes for some really cool photos!!!

Loved the family pics!

No idea where Erich got the idea from/ Then again, I usually don't know where all the crazy comes from when they act up.

Thanks, there are a bunch of other feature on my camera, I just have to read through the manual to figure out how to use most of them.

Day Six

Day six brings us to the Magic Kingdom. Day six and we haven't been to the Magic Kingdom yet?!

We will drive over to the TTC and then catch a ride to the MK via monorail or ferry. Even though we can't park right at the MK I still feel that driving is faster than taking the bus in the long run.

We have an early entry breakfast booked for the Crystal Palace so that we can enjoy a yummy meal with Pooh and friends. I was debating over booking a castle breakfast instead but I think $200 for breakfast is a bit excessive even if it means getting to eat in the castle.

Goals for the day? Once again we will probably take it pretty easy, just go with the flow.


Space Mountain - Haven't been on it since the refurb. I wonder if Mom and Erich will ride it this time around?

Winnie the Pooh - I have heard the new queue is really neat so I would like to check that out.

Snow White - If it is still open I would like to get one last ride in before it gets shutdown for good.

Philharmagic - One of my favs!

Hall of Presidents - We have never done this, I will probably have to force Alek and Erich to go.

Buzz Lightyear - Love it! We will probably ride this multiple times.

Tea Cups - I'm fairly confident that I will not be going on this with Alek and Erich this time around. Last time I went on with them I felt sick for an hour.

Sword in the Stone - Will Alek and Erich manage to pull the sword from the stone?

Laugh Floor - Always good for a laugh

Splash Mountain - Erich says he will not go on this again. Will he keep to his word?

Dream Along With Mickey - "Come join the party, the castle party!"

Big Thunder Mountain - I would like to ride this at night, I have heard it is really fun in the dark.


I am sure we will do a lot more than that but those are the things I am sure we will fit in.

For lunch we will have counter service. We may even leave the park and eat at a monorail resort, probably the Poly.

Dinner is at The Plaza. The prices are good and the food is delicious!

The Electrical Parade is scheduled to run this night so we will stick around to see that. I loved Spectro so I hope that I enjoy this parade just as much.

Then there is the new castle night show that has just been released. I saw the video on youtube and the effects are amazing!

Wishes will end the night, a perfect day to end a Disney day.
