Love this answer!

Yeah, I laughed at that one too. Not sure how she thinks she knows me well enough to make that editorial comment though.........

On our Disney travel day, I wanted to make it easily to Orlando before the discount ticket office we like closed at 6:00pm, so we could get Matthew's Disney ticket. I had ordered AP vouchers for the rest of us that we would pick up at Guest Relations when we arrived at our first park!

I thought you might like to adjust your answer a little, and since Liesa didn't even know a guess, I thought I would give a little help.

Hmmm. I'm intrigued. And what all can you do with these balls? No - I mean that!
