So while I promise to have a continuation up shortly, I'm going to go outside and punch a tree.

See you in a few!
LOL. Here's a little trick I have learned from this happening to me. Type up what you are doing in Microsoft Word and then copy it onto the webpage. Just hope you didn't break your wrist or fingers since the continuation of your story relies on them!

And you know Len, that's what I always do. But for some reason today I just decided to type it off the cuff right into Subsonic.

I actually post it on three different sites, but this one is my favorite as the people are the best. And I'm not just sayin' that. You guys are all awesome and are becoming like my Disney-family.

I promise the next couple (and final) installments will be packed full of action and laughs! Fun for the whole family!!!

I'm going to try to post pics tonight using Snapfish which seemed to work when I put up my Disneyland trip report. Their site was down this morning or they'd already be up.

If that doesn't work, just friend me on Facebook! The pics are already there! :P

Just search for Bart Scott. I think I'm the first one to come up. I'll be the guy holding a kid in front of Expedition Everest. The other Bart Scott plays for the Baltimore Ravens. That ain't me. But I wish I'd accidently get his paychecks once in a while.

Glad to hear you liked T-rex. It was a highlight of our trip! Dh isnt a big rain forest cafe fan, he did it once and that is good enough for him. We still drag him each trip to the one in Animal Kingdom and he survives it. But he really, really liked the food at T-rex!

I think I found you on FB!

Interesting read since it is really the first fully positive review on T-Rex that I have heard. That feeling is something I felt badly during the ending of our previous vacation. I personally think that the heavy feeling is the idea of a return to reality.

Day 5: One Last Trip to the Laughin' Place
We took our time getting up and ready for our last day, Friday. We had a 10:15 breakfast ADR for Chef Mickey’s at the Contemporary. We assembled the troops and hopped the bus for Magic Kingdom. We figured we’d just catch the monorail over to Contemporary. Actually, on Monday when we’d gone to MK, there were only a handful of guests on the bus, and the driver actually stopped and dropped some folks off right in front of the resort first. We considered asking if we could do the same, but this bus was packed to the gills. So we got to MK and since it was actually a nice morning and we noticed quite a line waiting to board the monorails, we opted to simply hoof it.
The CM’s hovering around the bus stops were very friendly and on actually stopped a bus to let us “jay-walkâ€

Day 6: All My Bags Are Packed, But I'll Never Be Ready to Go.

The last day is inevitably a hard day at Disney. I don’t know anyone who wakes up that last morning excited to go home. Well, turns out I do. My wife. But she’s a weirdo. I’ve avoided discussing some of the tensions on the trip due to heat and unruly children. Let’s just say she hasn’t always shared my uber-enthusiasm for all things Disney and is definitely not a fan of my “go, go, goâ€

Well that was a long two week wait to finally finish out that great vacation story. I enjoyed reading every detail. I am also a big fan of the one last look to take it all in. However, we never went to a park on the day we left. I guess for me, it would be too emotional.

And you are correct... You are never too young for Disney!

I know. My bad on the wait. Plus I still have a couple pics to add. As you may have seen on my FB page or my blog, I'm having some computer issues.

I'm glad you guys hung in there and I appreciate it. It's nice to know you're not just writing these things for your own amusement.
