And then, as soon as we got on the elevator, after he'd selected the appropriate floor, he would say, "Now, let me hold your hand!" We're not sure why, but he required to hold hands on elevators. Always. It was so darn cute.
This makes me wish we'd all ridden the elevator together!
At which point, DH so generously throws the ball in my court. "Ask Mama."
But that's ok! That means you now have a free ticket to do the same in the future! I'd use it when DS asks you, "Mama, can I borrow the car?"
I'm so conceited. The first few times I read this I saw "Tink, tink, tink..."
I had real soda. I mean real, full on, sugar filled soda. I was on vacation.
Didn't you know? Real soda tastes 500% better on vacation! Trust me. I was doing it too!
Peach Bellinis from Italy also taste better on vacation. But more on that in my TR. LOL
And that is about the most you'll get out of me in regard to food. As some portions of my days got more challenging, there was just no way I had time to take pictuers of the food before we ate it. Or even write about it. I remember most of what we ate, and I'll try to do it justice with some description here, but if it's not there, I apologize in advance and refer you to my lovely friend, LL, who is our current food porn connoisseur. Until Lara goes. Because she's the official food pornologist.
No worries, folks. I'll also supplement TKs lack of food porn with all the food porn I collected on our trip.
You know.
If I ever get that TR started.
::ahem::
And there it was. The Castle. In all its glory, just sitting at the end Main Street USA. And I felt it. I felt the whole hope of our vacation in that moment. The perfect contentment of knowing that I had eight whole days to enjoy the World, and that other than ADRs, I had no agenda. No other people to please but DH and DS. Nothing to worry about. (Tick, tick, tick...)
But at that moment, I didn't know what tomorrow would bring. At that moment, vacation felt so good. It's that feeling I wish that I could bottle and take home with me. It's that feeling that brings me to tears now as I write this. That feeling that you only get when you have all that hope, and all that possibility before. Before the real world comes crashing back in.
Dude. I'm totally a blubbery mess right now.
DH looked at me and uttered the best words ever...
"Do you want to get a Dole Whip?"
Ok.
So I
might be able to think of a string of words that do
include Dole Whip but are decidedly, um, different that, to yours truly, would be the best words ever, but this is the DISboards and I like being able to post here. So I shall refrain.
Um, is Jack Sparrow my favorite pirate?
And so, children, ends your lesson on the word 'rhetorical'.
::cuechoirofangels::
Seriously, what would a TK trip report be without a headless shot? I mean, really.
I'm so happy to know what goes above the shoulders.
We were hungry, so DH suggested we headed over to Casey's to grab some early dinner.
So, in other words, DH was moonlighting as your "Food Genie" on this trip, it seems.
More catching up to do!
