Monorail Blue on the spur was going into service. There is a picture of it over on the Day 1 album and you can clearly see the headlight on. I don't know which line it went on, but I am thinking it ended up running the express line for the night. It was really interesting to see it holding back there and nobody else on the packed monorail car we had even noticed it.

Yep. That was the photo I saw and meant to ask about earlier than I did. Reason I asked on or off was because if it was blinking (the back of the Monorail), you wouldn't be able to tell in a photo. Video on the other hand...

And life's a little weird,

Weirdness is compatible with ours,
We join up with them and fall in
Mutual weirdness and call it Love.”

It might be a brief second in a video. I had the video camera in one hand and the point and shoot in the other. I'll have to see if it is seen clearly in the video.

Very nice job Len. I love how happy your family looks in each picture. It doesn't looked like a fake or forced smile. I also like the glimpse at what your kids will look like if you finally land Minnie as your bride...

People would fake or force their smiles in Disney? I will say that this vacation could be summed up as the most fun we have ever had with the Diseny characters. We had phenomenal experiences with the costumed and face characters. I honestly don't know if I have ever or will be able to ever laugh as hard as we did with some of the characters.
Just have to work on the videos. I've been a bit busy and now have this nasty little bug that has me cutting out my computer time in favor of sleep time. I promise they'll be up.

I hope you're feeling better soon Len! By all means, get your rest and work on your videos later...you don't want to find yourself still sick when school starts

Yep... I have seen WAY too many people get frustrated with each other during vacations. Unfortunately it happens all too often.

True, read Mousekedude & Mouseoholic's last trip report - it can happen...

Your health is more important than the videos, dude. Get the rest. This summer break is the only time you get to recharge before returning to the halls of Rutgers this fall...

Yes, meltdowns happen on vacation!!! The important part is that the majority of it, is spent being happy!!! But, we're all human.

Is it just luck of the draw? The day of the week? The time of day? Do you have any hints?!
