DAY 272 - September 29, 2009
So, we've been home only 1 day from our Disney vacation and have started to unpack. I hate unpacking...it ranks right up there with packing except that there's not any excitement as there is while packing for a trip. The dirty clothes have been taken out and the several loads of laundry are getting done. A suitcase containing all the junk is all that is left. It will get put away but it may take a couple days.
We're celebrating Doug's birthday today. It was a simple celebration with some cake back at the hotel food court. His birthday isn't until the day we leave Disney but who feels like celebrating when you're trying to make sure your luggage isn't too heavy or messing with security at the airport. At least this way we got to acknowledge as a group Doug's special day. On a side note, his Aunt Connie has a birthday on the same day so we celebrated with her as well!

DAY 269 - September 27, 2009
The first picture is of the gang getting ready for some virtual pirate fighting. This was at Disney Quest, a 4-story arcade that is usually the setting for Boy's Day Out. We made a return trip with John and Chris on one of our last evenings at Disney. Aren't the glasses just stunning?!?
Today was Epcot...First "Spaceship Earth"...the well-known icon of Epcot. Then there's Kaleb trying out sushi in Japan. He really likes trying new foods. I don't know my sushi but he seemed to like it...look how proud he is to show it off. The last picture is of a "Hidden Mickey". These things are all over the park and you have to really look for them. This year we picked up a book of Hidden Mickey's that have over 800 of them listed. This one we found while visiting the Manatee in Epcot's Living Seas area.
We had a character breakfast today at the Crystal Palace in Magic Kingdom. As you can see the Willie-the-Pooh gang were there.

DAY 266 - September 24, 2009
What a busy day! Today was boys and girls day. In the morning the older guys went to breakfast and fishing for a couple hours...here's Doug with his catch for the day. Luckily, EACH of the guys caught something decent! They had a good time...
In the morning the boys and I went to Magic Kingdom for the "rope drop" which is the opening of the park. Here's a picture of the castle from a different side angle rather than the usual "from the front" picture. I really like the view here with the castle standing in the water.
DAY 265 - September 23, 2009
Animal Kingdom today...here's the "Tree of Life". You probably can't see the detail much in this picture but there are hundreds of animals carved into the tree. We went in for a character breakfast at Tusker House. This breakfast included Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Donald and Daisy Duck. Here are my 3 favorite "characters". The last picture is a the view across the lake from the area near Expedition Everest...what a beautiful shot!
Today was a date day for Doug and I. We had a nice relaxing day...mixing in a little shopping and a nice dinner. The first picture is the Lego Sea Creature that is in the lake in Downtown Disney. I LOVE this "little" guy and take a picture of him every time we're there even though I've taken several before. The second picture is the view from Yacht and Beach Club resort where we had dinner. It was a beautiful evening and the lighting was really nice the way it lit up the Boardwalk Hotel across the lake.
