We had a minor problem them a few years ago. We got a few humane traps and released them at the park by the lake as instructed by the local game warden. Didn't want them in my garden, didn't want them hurt.
Same here. We have a bunny population that is exploding, my neighbor's garden is being over run. He bought a humane trap, and takes them to a near by park. Great neighbor , he is! (he has the rotty):happy:

Okay here are some more Europe pictures. Not too many days left to cover! This will cover June 28th, it was my birthday! We broke a travel rule which is to never leave a Disney park on my birthday but it was okay because we spent half the day in Disneyland Paris and then travelled via Eurostar to London so it wasn't like I was going home or anything.

Then we flipped over to the studios, I rode Crushes Coaster (it always had a long line so I single rider lined it right at opening) while hubby went to get Ratatouille fast passes. I was off the coaster before he got the fast passes! It is a coaster that spins so he couldn't ride it, the ride was awesome though it went outside briefly but otherwise it was inside "under the sea". I wish I could have ridden it another time but the line was huge even for single rider when I got off.

Our last Disney meal was at Annette's a 50's style diner, it had a decent burger. It was no 5 Guys, but still decent.

On the Eurostar, and yep the tunnel under the English Channel wasn't scary at all, I barely noticed we were under.

We don't have a car much at WDW but we did a driving trip there in 2011 so we drove to the MK one morning. We were there really early (as we tend to do) and had AAA parking. I was excited that we would have close up parking, we got to the AAA area and noticed it was far away from the Transportation and Ticket Center and there were still close regular spots open so we drove around some cones and the wrong way up an aisle to get a close spot. But the AAA diamond parking was pretty close to the entrance at Epcot, at least in 2005 it was. I wouldn't mind taking the trams, as I haven't done so since I was a kid but we are always super early to the parking lot and it is quicker to just walk. Maybe we shouldn't be such early birds!
Good morning ajrwdwgirl! I love "talking" to all who join us in the A.M.:happy:

Happy belated birthday! I love Disney popcorn, maybe it's not as popular there. I love going into the kingdom and smelling that first thing!

At a pub near our hotel, it had good food and ale. We ate there twice.

Hubby and fish and chips, he claimed he didn't like fish and chips and now he is a big fan of them.

I had a burger but it was pork and chorizo with caramelized onions and cheese.

Looks like a really quaint place, I love the pics. Food looks good too, I would have a tough time deciding. Yum

They had a couple stands that were open around the hub, and one I remember seeing in Fantasyland. They actually sold both sweet and salty popcorn. Hubby had his choice when he bought some one night. He picked salty but a few pieces of sweet snuck their way in, it was a nice combination but I couldn't have eaten the sweet totally on its own.

All the pubs we went to in the UK (which we almost ate exclusively in pubs) were really quaint and some had quite a history behind them. One we were in is used by a lot of parliament members because of how close it is. Another was the site of debate about Henry VIII's divorce from Catherine to marry Anne Boleyn.

I love the sweet salty combo. Maybe Disney World should do that!
