Someone waving at me. Actually it's the panama canal staff waving at US

Keeping with the theme of the Panama Canal cruise, here are the canal workers dragging lines out to the Wonder by rowboat.
It takes the scope of the ships to make their job real (and dangerous)

Here's my Superbowl Margarita. My husband is the best bartender!!! His margaritas taste just like the ones at the Margarita Bar in Downtown Disney....simply amazing!

Here is a funny sign though not due to an error.

I was checking into a hotel at midnight last night after a not-so-pleasant plane trip, and as I was waiting for the desk clerk to show up, I saw this sign. I guess for this price, anyone should be pet friendly.

MichelleVW - LOVE your snowscene, which includes Breath in Cold Air.

And yes, I had a great DAY at Disneyland. Waaay too short; but I made the most of it.

I realised I missed a few...

Love

And a gratuitous shots here....if I thought I'd get away with it....these would have been Aurora, astronomical.

Patiently waiting for shots of the real Aurora Borealis...possibly from our Alaskan contact?

More Wildlife in Native Habitat. This time I'm at Piedras Blancas and loving the Elephant Seals and their pups!

The seals knew how to enjoy themselves in the sand.

Great photos everyone!! Loving the snow photos!
I had a weekend away on the Gold Coast, and I was looking forward to getting the camera out because I hadn't for a while! Anyway, I have just looked at all the photos and I'm not happy with a single one!! Guess I'll just have to leave them alone for a bit and go back to check on them in a day or two to see if I have changed my mind!!! Oh well, here are a couple to share anyway!

Neon:

Fuzzy slipper:

Funny or misspelt sign:

(Wonder what sort of eggs a "laying polar bear" has...???)

Whilst this isn't "funny" or "misspelt" I found it a little disturbing..

This magician was appearing at Jupiter's Casino and this enormous advertising sign was hung in the hotel entrance and was about 2 storeys high..!!
