Man you are one updating girl today and I love it! Too bad you had to encounter a dumb drunk while at Rose & Crown but at least you were able to make the best of it despite him.

I, personally, think the spider pictures are cool. We used to have humongous garden spiders in our front yard when I was a kid. We'd catch bugs to throw in the webs so we could watch the spider roll them up. Sick I know!

This seems like a good place to stop for the day. The next update will be the Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights & EMH at DHS. I hope you all have a great day!

I'm an updatin' fool today!!!
I forgot to mention another obnoxious drunken goof that I saw as I entered epcot that night. He was asking everyone what college basketball team they liked.

That's cool about the garden spiders!! I wonder if they have any bug preferences as to what they eat. I wish they would eat mosquitoes & ticks. I HATE ticks.

Lisa is right, you are an updating fool, and I love it too! Can I ask what kind of camera you have? You may have said it before, but I don't remember. And yeah for seeing Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, and being in the front row! When I was at Epcot last year the only one I remember was there the day I was was Jon Secada I did kinda hear him while I was in The American Adventure, but I didn't go in to se him, I was too busy exploring WS.

Glad you got to see Big Bad Voodoo Daddy and a front row seat to boot...with great pictures.

Thanks! I have a Canon Rebel T1i & I have 4 different lenses that I use with it. The zoom lens is a Tamron. I got a really good deal on Amazon earlier this year for the camera, 4 lenses, filters, an extra battery, an sd card, a case, and a tripod. I looked at it weekly for 2 years before I bought it.

The other person that I saw that week at the America Gardens Theater was Richard Marx...I only walked by. I didn't stop.

Thanks!! That was pretty awesome. They played at least 6 songs- I think more, though. I will have to get out my notes from that day. Right now I can't even remember where I ate that day!

Thanks!! I know some people can't even look at spiders, so I had to throw that warning in there!

Hi April,
Awesome pics....as always!!

Do you find it awkard switching lenses? I would love to upgrade our point and shoot...
Big Bad Voodoo Daddy must have been awesome! Good for you for scoring the front row! When we saw Taylor Dayne and 38 Special we also scored the front row! makes for a great concert to see everyone's facial expressions!

Richard Marx...he was my first concert! I actually saw him in Worcester Centrum..when it was the Centrum...gee maybe 1986 or so...it was valentine's day and I went with 3 of my friends....not really fun since the rest of the crowd was couples...

Hope you had a Merry Christmas and Santa was good to you!
p.s. I hate snakes....so if you have any pics of snakes any and all warnings would be appreciated!!!

Thanks! For this trip, I changed lenses in the room because I didn't want to carry around my backpack full of lenses. I have a case that fits just the camera & whatever lens is attached, so I used that.
WOW- Richard Marx at the Centrum!!! I think my first concert at the centrum was the Monkees reunion tour.
I hope YOU had a merry Christmas, too! Mine was nice- everyone got along & everything went smoothly.
I don't think I have any photos of snakes, so don't worry. Is it just snakes, or do lizards freak you out, too??

What a great first day. Love all your pictures too.

Thanks!! This was definitely one of the best trips I have ever taken.

When I last left off, I had just seen Big Bad Voodoo Daddy at Epcot. I left the park, made a quick stop at my room, then waited for the boat to DHS for EMH. Since we are the last stop before DHS, I had to wait through THREE boats before there was room on the boat. When I did finally get over to DHS, it didn't seem that crowded. I knew that I wanted to get over to see the Osborne lights, but the cast members were forcing people to get there a certain way. Once I finally got there, I took a zillion photos. I love the Osborne Lights because I love to watch people's reaction to them. Most of the crowd walks around looking up with their jaws dropped. It's great.

I am looking at your pictures of the Osbourne Lights and my jaw is dropped open. I can just imagine what I'd look like if I were actually there.

It's really, really awesome. When the lights flash to the music, it is amazing. It also "snows". You have to see it someday! I think I took 20% of the photos just of the lights!!
