What Day is Today?

Today is Wednesday, which makes this day four of the trip? I think so. I am on vacation so I refuse to do math.

Yesterday was Magic Kingdom but the weather went down the crapper in the afternoon and we spent a lot of the time at the hotel watching lightning. One blast hit so close that we think it might have hit something in the hotel complex. That was freaky.

Today is Hollywood Studios. We’ll spend the morning there then go back to the hotel to rest up for an extended after hours event that we bought tickets for. We may be riding Star Wars rides until after midnight. Fortunately I had my first good nights sleep in weeks last night, so fingers crossed I’m up for it.

I hope to be posting pictures of First Order stormtroopers soon.

Travel Tomorrow

It is 9:30pm on Saturday night. The car that is taking us to the airport will be here at 4:45am. My alarm is set for 3:30. Here’s hoping I get at least a little sleep tonight.

We’re 95% packed. All that is left is last minute things like this laptop I’m typing this post on, and some chargers, and things like that. Harry is here and he’s doing some laundry, so he has to finish that tonight too.

One thing that isn’t here is the new/ancient film camera that I bought off of ebay last week. The USPS delivery date/time was today at 9:00pm. It was set for that for almost a whole week. At 9:00 tonight the estimate changed to Monday at 9:00pm. Fucking post office. I’m so pissed off. Now my new/old camera is going to sit on the steps for almost a whole week while I’m off visiting Mickey in Florida. Fucking post office.

I’m going to try and get some sleep soon. Here’s hoping for a smooth journey tomorrow, a successful week’s vacation with the family, and a safe and easy trip home next weekend. It’s going to be a great week… despite the fucking post office.

Home Again

We are home. I am sitting up in bed. There was drama at the baggage claim and more drama, of the weather related sort, at the end of our driveway when we got here. I might write about those dramatic events at some later date, but I also might not.

Suffice to say that we are home at last. It is almost 11:00pm and I plan on having a sugar free snack, watching Friday’s episode of Severance, and then falling asleep.

Ah, Massachusetts. Our trip to Florida was outstanding, but I am so glad to be back where I belong.

Underway

The bags are packed. We are ready to check out of the hotel and go find some breakfast. Our ride to the airport isn’t until around 1:00pm so we will have some time to kill. I think we will explore on of the other resorts a little bit.

On a totally unrelated note, the first song for this year’s RPM Challenge has been started. It’s pretty lame. We are underway once more.

Photo a Day: 153/365

Today’s photo a day comes from me taking way too many pictures while wandering around Disney Springs. I am really tired now (it’s 10:03pm) and I need to get some sleep because we fly home tomorrow afternoon and still have much to do to get ready.
