absolutely last shot

ok so this is our real last shot from the world. we are sitting on the magical express loading other guests so we can all go back to our respective homes. our flight leaves at 7:05 and hopefully we won't be flying through a storm. with any luck we should be home around 10.

last pic

here is our last shot from walt disney world. we are heading to get our bags then catch the bus back to raleigh. it will be nice to do absolutely nothing tomorrow.

Expedition Everest

how to wash

what would we do without brawny to give us instructions to wash our hands. this entire time i had no clue it was this simple.

spaceship earth

we are heading back for a swim or a nap. one way or the other we are leaving to take a break. we'll be back tonight since the park doesn't close until midnight. hopefully it won't be wall to wall people. as you can see its the flower and garden festival too.

10:30 the line for sorin

10:30 the line for sorin is 60 min and the fast pass line looks to be a 30 min wait. looks like we got our 1 sorin ride in

Wishes fireworks

minutes before wishes in MK.

Flowers for Mandy; Bonus points for Scott

As you can see here I got Mandy flowers delivered to the room completely surprising her. Of all the things I've learned through the years its the surprises that count the most. Any stooge can order flowers on valentines day or her birthday. It takes a lot of thought and planning to make flowers show up in a hotel at Disney World. Bonus points for Scott!
