Hi everyone I am finally back here after over a month and from the looks of things I am too far behind to go back over 300 pages to when I last posted on page 745. You guys have been a chatty bunch while I was gone! Jeff how are we doing with our posts? What "place" is our thread in?
Our 2 weeks in FL were great!!! The first week was very busy trying to get our friends who had not been to Orlando before to see as much as possible. We went to all 4 Dusney parks and Sea World and Kennedy Space Center. The second week it was just the 3 of us and mor relaxing especially our 3 days at Vero Beach! We had a beautiful ocean view villa and I spent a lot of time relaxing on our balcony. We were also very fortunate to see 2 loggerhead turtles nesting. The first one we saw nesting was on a turtle walk we had scheduled with a park ranger and were lucky to see as the turtle was burying her eggs and watch her go back to the ocean. The second turtle we saw was amazing because we almost tripped over her as she was coming in from the ocean and heading up the beach. We had gone for a walk hoping to come across a turtle and as we were coming back to the resort a man came up to us and told us to stop because just ahead a turtle was coming up out of the ocean. We had gone for a walk looking for a turtle and here one was right in front of Disney's resort. How magical is that! We watched the turtle "drag" herself up the beach, dig a hole in the sand, lay her eggs, meticulously and slowly bury them and then go back into the ocean. It was amazing to see.
We were home from FL for a busy week,then Rachel and I went up to north-western WI to visit my sister and brother-in-law for a week. We had a wonderful week with them but 2 vacations a week apart makes things very hectic when you get back home again. I am still getting caught up on laundry and going through all the mail and the house is a disaster but I needed to get back to the DIS tonight!
Did I miss anything important here while I was gone? I don't think I will be able to go back and read the 300+ pages of thread that I missed so I will just jump back in here.
I can't beleive we are just over 3 months until the cruise and that very early Sun. morning I will be sitting here making our Palo reservations already
I don't think we are going to book any excursions through Disney this time, we are just going to do things on our own on the islands.
Well that's it for now. It's good to be back here with all you guys and it looks like we have a few more joining us too!

"Disney Night" on Saturday
So I will be able to DIS from the coolness of my living room!
