Day Tripper,Yeah...

Someone took a day off work to squeeze in one more visit before summer block out begins June 1....Target Epcot! Nice day (and hot). Not overly crowded - we thought it would be really bad because we were parked in the very last row (at 11:30 am) - but I noticed they only had folks to about third of a row down, then started a new row. In hindsight I think it was to keep the walk to the tram shorter because of the heat. Smart move Disney!

I had back to back to back FPs for Living with the Land, Soarin' and Spaceship Earth. Did the first two, walked around the world, then did the last one before heading home...all done in a 2 hours visit.

There has been a lot of discussion this week in our house of finally making the move. We shall see if anything comes of it. Looks like you had a beautiful day at Epcot, and it doesn't look too crowded at all!

Lucky! I'm a little offended you didn't go last week instead, but I'll let it slide considering you referenced the Beatles in your title

I look at houses for sale in Florida every week. I need to become a snowbird.

I am printing this out and taping it to the fridge door for Geordon and Tori to see.

I know, I know! Work schedules were not very cooperative last week. And Joe did not appreciate my Beatles reference so thank you!

Oh, and funniest overheard comment this trip.....Dad to daughter as he was pushing her in a stroller and she tried to tell him something......

"Your mouth is down there and my ears are up here. I can't hear you!"

I did notice that while I was researching. A nice bonus indeed compared to what we have here. Property taxes are much lower too.

I live across the water from Liverpool and work in Liverpool, did you know there is an Eleanor Rigby statue and it really is on its own out of sight I pass it most days and say hi just so she isn't lonely. Liverpool is a much better place to be than London, just as much culture but far friendlier people. Disney cruise stops here too..

Jeff you are incredibly lucky and Kristen do it if you can. I wish G and I could do that.

We're going to try and make it happen! Having DCL stop in your town sounds awesome. Do cruises depart from there or is it just a day port of call?

It is a day call, they have the fireworks though when they leave. You really get a sense of size.

You can get to Ireland from here and the Isle of Man
