I would rather entertain and hope that
people learned something than educate people and hope they were entertained.

Boat back to the parKing lot
In the people mover tram going back to the van, Ben 'officially' turned 9,
Eastern time-he was sound asleep when 9:17 Central time rolled around.
We had microwave dinners in the room and the kids were asleep within half
an hour, none of them even took off the pants they had on yesterday and Chandler
never made it under the covers, I put a blanket on her. They were exhausted!
So were we, after dumping our pictures onto the computer, we hit the bed by
10.
Us and some Asian guy, all heading to-Space Mountain!
Pal Mickey has a series of seisures and must be turned off!
Queing for Laugh Floor
Matt as Mike Wazsowski
Blue Line
Me! I was on the trip!
Above: Space Mountain was broke down JUST as we were getting on, in fact,
Matt was already loaded ahead of us.
While the house lights were up, I snapped a few quick shots of the actual
track. It's pretty cheesy! : )
Wishes:
I love the castle!
Our last peek at the Kingdom
