I'm shielding my eyes! We'll have a training session sometime. I'll get you to be a pro and Denny will be all like "wha?!"

Oh my goodness, you are so safely out of the last corral! I'm so happy for the results of your 10k. I have a quarter marathon this weekend. Fancy speak for 6.55 miles.

We used to go to the drive in all the time when I was a kid, and they still had those old school ads for the concession!

Sci-fi is planned for us for the PHM with the whole fam. There's 12 of us, so goodness knows where they're going to put us. Hopefully two cars.

Whenever we drive to Disney, we get so excited when we see Illinois license plates. I totally get the excitement of seeing a Delaware plate.

Sponges. Who knew. I'm kidding! My Dad always bought real sponges! He had a painting side business for about 25 year, and he always bought real ones, not manufactured. They worked really well when sponge painting was all the rage.

OMG, that is totally a scene from My Big Fat Greek Wedding! "Put some windex on it!"

LOVE spanakopita! One of my faves.

Hi Anita! I just saw your trip is on already!!! Have a great time - I'm just finishing up your TR just in time to read all about your cruise when you get back! Bon Voyage!

 

[teekathepony]

Well first of all, I hope you're having a magical vacation! Sorry I missed your send off!
Sci-fi is adorable. Very well done theming! I have never been a drive in fan I must admit, but it is really cute and nostalgic.
Awwww time to leave? Oh well new adventures await.
The carriage house looks adorable.
Wow! Sponges and sponge statues and sponge plaques!
Dinner looks good, I lovvvve spanakopita.
Kayaking with manatees!!! This is the part I am so excited to hear about!!

I finally get on the DISboards after our DCL/WDW trip and then a week to try and get caught up at work and now you're going to WDW! Sighhh....two ships passing in the night?

A couple of quick notes about your TR thus far...GREAT ToT pics!! I can never take those shots because I would lose my camera. Every time I ride ToT, I lose my glasses, hat and anything else that isn't tied down! Also, nice side trip to Tarpon Springs. I need to make it to that part of FL one day. We go to the "redneck Riviera" often (Destin, Panama City, Pensacola area) but not around the bend to the west, Gulf side of FL.

Hope you're having a great time (I know you are) and hope the weather cooperates since there is a pretty large hurricane out in the Atlantic near Bermuda. Look forward to your return and more from this TR and the next one.

Great wrap up with pics. Looked like a very nice trip.

The plans look good. Little confusing, but good. LOL

Nice house.

Glad you were felling better before you left.

I hate delays.

Thank you for the pics while dragging your bag. LOL. The building is very pretty. I missed it when we went there in December.

I know the feeling of "swimmy".

LOL. Love the close up on TOT. You got some good pics on TOT queue.

I think the scores on TSM are good. LOL.

LOL about the drive in.

The drink looked good.

I like the pic of you in the glasses.

We got 2 bottles of wine at our Rome hotel but honestly that is the only place. LOL.

Nice pics in Tarpon Springs. Brings back memories from my childhood.

All caught up. Have a safe and magical trip.

Hope you're having a great trip!!!!!

This picture is entirely representation of the small of amount of snow that we get in Delaware. Those of you that get “real” snow can laugh now!

Yep. Laughing!!! Haha. I think I'm the only one who enjoyed the winter!

Your pictures of the ghost family on ToT are incredible! LOVE them!!!

The sunglasses picture is super cool, too. I love shots like that and can never seem to master them.

Hi Mary Ellen! I hope you are enjoying your trip.

I'm loving reading about your February get away. You visit so many interesting places that expand your horizons beyond the 4-corners of the Disney property. That carriage house sounds lovely. Good thing you didn't have a hankering for some shrimp. What shrimp in the freezer?

Ahhh I love Greek food. Moussaka and Baklava would be a perfect meal.

I know I say this all the time but I love all the photos that you post. The interesting angles and close ups of the details are so interesting.

Happy Anniversary Mary Ellen and Denny!

Hi Everyone! Thanks for the anniversary wishes! Having a great day! Little bit of a slow start thanks to food & wine yesterday, but we had a great day at MK today. We are having dinner at the Cali Grill tonight. We checked into the VGF yesterday and the studio is amazing. I love it!!!! Just perfect. Even our standard view room has a lovely view of the Poly and it's pretty cool seeing the monorail whiz by. Oh and our villa at VWL was lovely too. I love the refurb. MNSSHP was fun. One more day of the parks then it's time to cruise. Wonderful vacation so far!

 

[Pinkocto]

Sounds like wonderful fun! Glad you're having a fabulous time!!! Happy Anniversary!!!
