What a great little trip!!!! We used to do stuff like that when we had APs for DLR...sometimes those are the best trips! :D

I love the pictures! You like the "sparkle" setting, don't you? ;) I like to use it too...my camera also has a "miniature" setting and that seems to be my favorite.

I'm glad to hear that Travis is doing well and that you are trying for a Mother's Day trip! I hope it works out for you!!! :D

I just bought this camera... its a Fuji with a 40x zoom and 16.somthing megapixels. I am just learning how to use it. I tried the sparkle thing and I like it, but may have overused it. Some of the pics came out a little weird. The miniature setting is something I haven't tried yet, what does it do? I'm always up for some creativity!

it probably simulates a Tilt-Shift effect...which can be very cool if done properly

My oldest is a senior in high school right now... Every other minute I feel that lump well up in my throat. And to think my baby will be in HIGH SCHOOL next year..... I should just by stock in Kimberly Clark products right now.

I love this report and the pics. Don't think for even a minute that I'm not a little envious of your geographical location and proximity to WDW! Maybe some day in the future, like after the girls are done with school (both are going to pursue graduate degrees... help me now...) we'll be able to spend time south and make multiple mini-trips to WDW like you do.

I hope you get to go for Mother's Day! What a TREAT!

Love that sparkling monorail shot!

Yep. That's it exactly! It's a fun setting to play around with! :D
