Some pics on the way to Big Thunder:

I think it was probably about a 10-15 minute wait at BT, so I was able to snap a few pics in line and on the ride.

I got lucky number 13!

And I think I'll stop here for now. This took longer than I thought it would! But, please let me know if I'm posting too many pics and I'll cut back.

There's GREENERY INSIDE A DISNEY PARK.....that's not Animal Kingdom.

I hope it isn't too hot for you today! xoxo

It was still pretty hot, but not as bad as yesterday. It is supposed to be hot the rest of the week but a nice cool down next week.

Ok so at my local aquarium we have the opportunity to buy tickets to spend the night. Am I too old or is this just scary? Like what if I fall asleep and wake up with a shark staring at me through the glass or worse yet sleeping in a space with strangers.
Bad idea no?

I think it would be cool to spend the night in one of those aquarium tunnels, but it would be a little scary too. Plus unless there was a cot or blow up mattress I wouldn't want to sleep on the floor even in a sleeping bad, I'm too old for that.

Coming from Colorado, where the Columbine shootings happened. Every school in our area, has locks on the doors, with a buzzer to be allowed in. Then you can come in if, the school is expecting you. After that you sign in, and get a name tag. This happens even when attending school events. Oh, that was in elementary school. I don't know about middle school and high school.

Our school has had the buzz in system for a couple years now too. I think it is becoming pretty standard in schools which I guess is unfortunate.

Getting take out. This practically never happens.

Now, Chinese or Italian? Decisions, decisions...

Probably too late to weigh in here, but I vote for Italian. Maybe a calazone.

End up doing both. Wonton soup and lasagna.

That looks like fun! (I didn't see anything about dinner though. I think they should throw in a fish dinner!!)

The Donald Trump Syndrome.

The part that is missing in relation to DT is the "really are great" section. He's just got what was mentioned earlier. The thought that he's great, hungers for attention, but, really isn't anywhere near as great as he thinks he is.

Oh no, IT'S BACK!!!!!

"The park operated as Santa's Village from 1959 until 2006, when it closed. After extensive rehabilitation, it re-opened in 2011 under new ownership. Renamed Santa's Village Azoosment Park"

Sadly the Milk Pail is gone.

Ha! This lunacy looks like fun! I'd like to go to their Critter Camp. (Will they let an adult in? )

Did I remember to take pictures.....No.

Go back. Take pictures. There. Said my piece.

Same here. Our schools are always locked down. Our schools are A/C's so never is a window open.
They have tinted glass, can't see in but you can see out. Up in Northern IL yesterday the schools were on complete lockdown and no school today because of 3 police murderers still on the loose.
All of our schools around here went to locked entry after Laurie Dann's school shooting in the Suburbs of Chicago. Once again, mental illness.

Been following that IL story about the 3 officers. Just today in MA, there was a police officer driving along a road in his cruiser, and was shot at random, by a guy in a pickup truck. Cop crashed into a tree and the cruiser went up in flames. He was rescued and rushed to a local hospital; no report yet on his condition. There's a manhunt going on now in MA. I don't know what this world is coming to.

Ugh, this makes me so mad and ashamed of what people are doing in the world today. I preach all day at school to the students about respect for others and some people still just don't get it. There are always people who think rules don't apply to them and they can do whatever they want. I hope the officer is okay and I hope that they catch all these people.

I need to close my eyes for this one too! Although I must it looks pretty and after another hot day at school it does look a little refreshing...but no it (that four letter "s" word) can stay away for awhile.
