I am all caught up again! 
Yay!
And welcome back! I hope you had a great visit to DLP!
ILove the Epcot update and your plans for your February trip sound great. 
Thanks and thanks. I am really looking forward to checking out the Tampa Bay area. It looks pretty cool.
I suspect it was just a sensitivity issue as well. It was super wierd though as basically we came back and went to bed, had I not happened to glance down at my feet I'd never have even noticed it!
That IS really odd. And a little freaky - looking down at your legs and seeing them bright red. Like I said before, I would NOT like that
at all!
I tried to remind him that it is a ride set in FUTURE world but he wasn't buying it
Too much of a realist I suppose!
I know the mug! I have the green one but it's an older version so slightly different. I have a feeling I will end up with a F&G one if I like it. I would also like a MK and a DHS mug if I ever find ones that I like but it hasn't happened yet. There were only 2 I was even a little tempted by and I felt like with both I'd be buying them for the sake of having one from the trip which was silly.
I know what you mean. I try to pass right over the mugs that I am just "eh" about. But I do love those coffee mugs. And, yes, there is a new and an old version. I have two blue ones and one is the old while the other is the new version.
I've read horrible ones, great ones and meh ones. I'm glad yours was a good one!
I'm glad mine was a good one, too! Maybe part of the reason I liked it so much is because my expectations were low. I'm not sure. I just know I loved it!
it looks adorable and I am completely drooling over the idea of a beach day. I need some sun!
Me too! I really enjoyed the beach at St. Augustine, so I know I will love this area. There are just SO many beaches and state parks. It's pretty incredible.
You can rent a Kuerig but for one night, not worth it I'm sure. But hey, it's all Joffrey-crap so not quite as bad. Getting in as late as you are, this makes total sense!
Yup - probably not worth it for one night. I could get the Starbucks via. There's an idea!
But seriously, I'm pretty fine with McDonalds for a quick caffeine fix.
I still can't believe you missed it! We spent by far the most time there, go figure! Age of my group I am sure but it was fine with me! And even with that, so much I didn't see or do.
It's very odd that we omitted the park all together. My October trip was weird. I had a great time, but I was dealing with some stomach issues and that slowed me down a bit. Then I got sick on the last morning I was supposed to hit HS. As long as that trip was there were parts of it that just weren't satisfying. I can't quite put my finger on what the problem was.
For one night I bet you have a decent chance, What is the 30 day mark?
I should be at 30 days in about 15 or 16 days. I went ahead and wait listed until the 7 day mark. I figured why the heck not? BCV is really the only other place I wanted to stay on this trip. Well, that and OKW, but since we are staying there in May I decided it was time to revisit good old SSR.
Sounds like drunk biking!
or hungover. LOL!
Well, I was pretty much past the hangover part by the time we hit the bikes. Thank goodness running in the morning will do that to you!
Thank you!
Your February plans sound wonderful! So many fun things to do. The big cat rescue would be very high on my list.
There is really so much to do in the Tampa area. I have been to Orlando and WDW like 20 times, so I think its time to explore around a bit.
Have you seen/heard of these?

It's a French press and a cup all in one, you can have your favorite coffee anywhere you go. I've bought my mom and stepmom one and they say they work fabulously.
That is really cool! I like that. What a great idea for traveling. I may just need to order one of those the next time I do some
Amazon shopping. Thanks for the suggestion!!!!!!
And why in the world didn't you jump on that great deal at Costco!? I don't know how you resisted
I think I was afraid that it was going to taste like crap. I got scared by the super low price. Heck, we could have had that with breakfast before the bike ride.
The bike ride might have frustrated me a little.
You mean the lack of adherence to traffic protocol?
It kind of threw me off a bit because Denny and I used to bike ride a lot. Like racing bikes, the whole nine yards. We were always VERY conscious of following the rules of the road, so it was a little unnerving.
Does Denny not like the water?
He can't swim. He never learned how as a child. Kind of hard to believe but he grew up dirt poor with 4 other siblings and some kid dunked him once and it scared the crap out of him. He never recovered. He literally sinks right to the bottom of water. It's nuts.
That was so tedious.
What beautiful beach photos. Just what I needed on this freezing cold and ugly Utah winter day. 
Sounds like a great tim was had.
<----- That's me worshipping you. 
Three hours in the jacuzzi with old friends and two cases of beer will do that to you. Could have been the 4 
vodka, soda, with a splash of cranberries as well. Good times.
We stayed one night at Art of Animation before our last WDW trip and while I love the big colors and icons, I did miss the little perks DVC has got us all so accustomed too. But it was fun for a night. AoA is a super cute resort though.
