MrHub and Scrappy, The wife and I wish you a fabulous trip to the land of the Mouse. Here's hoping that you don't hit any snow at all on the way down and the way back either. Be sure to take lots of pictures and have fun and EAT WELL.

Oh fun! Where do you stop in SC? Growing up, we always, always stopped at Walterboro. My grandfather was a TOTAL creature of habit.

Basically what dsoup said! How long you gone for?

Whilst I love the little counter thing under my name, it does remind me that 226 days is actually a very long time until I get to go back to Orlando, and is probably the longest anyone has ever waited for anything EVER

Thanks all for the well wishes!
Got off about 2pm yesterday and beat the snow and ice! yay Hit some heavy traffic past DC, but what else should I have expected! waiting Ended up in Spotsylvania for the night. Yes people, there really is a town called that!

Got back on the road about 730 this morning (Friday) and we are now in St Augustine (other wise known as The slowest internet connection in the country Town waiting waiting waiting waiting ) for the night. Will drive into Disney by 9am tomorrow.

Yes Cdub, we left after work, I actually took some personal time and got off early and Scrappy was already getting off at noon, so it worked out well.

Don't worry, tomorrow's Sunday. Always seems like the crowds change on Sundays. Can't promise anything about the weather though!

DD was CRAZY today! We couldn't figure out why it was so busy. Don't know what the draw is. Chilly still, but pretty. Went to EoS and thought of every single one of you. Smile

Mr Hub and Scrappy - hope you're having a FANTASTIC time!

Wow that is really great, and since the water is still in it's liquid state it must be warmer than it is here at home. Minus 8 this morning with a HIGH for the day of 8 ABOVE. We are freezing our bippies off up here. yuck laugh Seriously hope it gets REAL warm and sunny for you.

Ok, arrived at the Poly Saturday about 9am, check in took about 2 minutes and room was ready!. Got a room with a beautiful view (as you can see with the web cam). No balcony though!. The older buildings apparently did not have balconies on the second floor, just the 1st & 3rd floors. We are in Tuvalu building.

Here are some room pics.

Went right into the MK after getting unpacked! Had to get something to eat right away.

LOVE the Casey's as a first priority!

Why oh why won't they put the duvet bed covers in the Poly and GF?! They're so much nicer -- and they actually get washed awesome

That's a bummer about the no balcony, but the room is gorgeous. And the view is to die for. I've been checking in on your video from time to time -- didn't catch Wishes last night, but I love watching the water and having the sound on while I'm working.

Are they doing the Magic Memories and You think nightly at the MK now?

Okay rain is all over for now, web cam back up and running. Today was laundry day in the morning, Just did Captain Hooks for quick breakfast. Went over to see Wildreness Lodge and check out Artist Point restaurant. Really nice resort, but not our kind of theme. Decided to go to DTD for lunch and went to T-Rex. Had a great flat bread pizza with cheese fresh basil & balsamic on it, also a ptredactyl salad, (not sure if speeling is right). We shared and got really full. Think we are going to go over to EPCOT now and walk around (or eat our way around) the WSC and stay for Illumination. I'll leave camera on, enjoy. I know there's not much to look at.

Great to see it back on! I noticed you panned the camera a little to the left from where it was originally, that should give us a better view of the fireworks tonight silly . Hope you get a great viewing spot for Illuminations.

The cam was a GREAT idea. Did you tell some other folks about it?
