Back from Orlando

It was a great trip!
Allen and I had a lot of fun running around and seeing the sights. Unfortunately the weather let us down again. It was supposed to be mildly chilly with a 20% chance of rain. Instead it was very chilly and rained almost the entire day, making the cold seem colder. And I'm not paying $7 for a Disney poncho.
But other than the cruddy weather it was still magical and fun. Here's a couple pictures:This tree is extremely weird. I wish I could have taken some better pictures but the line was so thick if I stopped to fumble with my camera I would have held up everyone. Here's a closer look:The trunk was covered in thick, quarter sized thorns and the branches displayed large balls of (what appears to be) cotton. Does anyone know what this is?This sign was on every ride and it just cracked me up, picturing a real person doing the things shown in the "do not do" image. Hahahahahahaah!
I'll try to get some more up soon - maybe on my other blog: http://newfavoriteshow.blogspot.com

Hi Ho Hi Ho.....

It's off to Orlando we go!
Allen and I will be spending one and a half awesome days up north in a little town in the middle of Florida. I'm thinking of the times I flipped through my old encyclopedias and books on "places to visit" that were made before 1960. Orlando is always mentioned as a small agricultural town. Growing up with the Disney phenomenon only a few miles away it's difficult to think of a time when themed rides and grown men in costumes didn't exist.

So we'll be going to a park. We're not sure which one yet, but it will be something Disney. I'll bring back photos!
In the meantime, here's an awesome Buddy Bag to keep you from getting lonely:
