    My family on the west cost were at the beach today. However, I'm hoping the east cost is ok.

    Surprising Children with Disney Trip

    One year my DW was in Florida at the Dolphin for a conference. In secret I had her take luggage for us all down. As usual I picked the kids up from school on Friday, told they to put on their seatbelt because we were going to Disney World! We went directly to the airport. They had no idea...

    What did you do?

    10 miles past the Mystic Lakes up on a bike trail into Arlington and Lexington (MA). Just beautiful. And at 10:04 my fastest pace for that distance ever. However, I found myself 3 miles from home when I hit my 10 miles mark. Which meant a walk home from the next town over. :) For those...

    Guide to DLR for WDW Veterans!

    Thanks. I confess I want to try the Blue Bayou. I'm used to overpriced food at WDW. But I also want to try Napa Rose. Got it...nothing to think about until 60 days out! Appreciate the help for a newbie.

    Guide to DLR for WDW Veterans!

    Finally have hotel reservations (off site) at Hilton Anaheim. Same location as the conference DW is attending. Google maps claims it is 0.8 miles to front gate. That means we have tickets, flights and hotel all set. So how far in advance can we / should we make meal reservations? Is there...

    What did you do?

    And...? Hoping it is fixed! We only need a treadmill here from Dec - March. But when the snow is down, it is needed. I go to the gym.

    What did you do?

    9 miles at 9:51. Probably my best overall run of distance/pace in a long time. Building back to long runs of 10 miles that I had pre-knee injury. 45 days to my first half marathon.

    What did you do?

    Thanks!! ~30 second off a PR, though I didn't yet see the official results. Weather was beautiful, sunny, high 50's. Perfect day. Rest of the family did the 5k and did great as well.

    I will never stay off site. It is Disney or nothing.

    Used to think I felt this way and even if I had a car, would take the busses. Only this last trip did I realize I could get home twice as fast and have a seat the whole way. The busses work well if the next bus is going your way and isn't already full. Too often I've had to wait 15-20...

    I will never stay off site. It is Disney or nothing.

    Stay on property AND rent a car! We love being close by and in the bubble. But there is nothing better than after a long day sitting in a rental car and not having to wait for and stand on a bus. My true preference is an epcot resort and skip the car or bus for two different parks. Swan and...

    What did you do?

    Two fast (for me) miles one at a time at the track yesterday while we DD and her friends ran in their unofficial "Scrambled Legs" running club! Those kids may be only 10 and they can't keep up over the long haul, but for short distances, they are wicked fast!

    What are you most excited about coming to DLR in the next year?

    Oh it's not until the new year. April actually. But to the point of the thread it is all new to me! :) And we don't mind single rider lines. Not sure why people avoid them.

    What are you most excited about coming to DLR in the next year?

    Arrive on a Sunday 9 pm. Have Mon, Tue and most of Wed with a red eye home late that night. Don't even have to pack because DW is staying behind in Anaheim for a conference that starts Wednesday. Can't wait!! Been to WDW probably 30 times and never had an opportunity to go to DL. I'm worried...
