Oh well. Let this trip report shrivel on the vine. I'm the official photographer and wordsmith for our group on our trips and I had to back out from the upcoming excursion. I'm staying back in PA to keep up with and settle my mom's estate who passed away 8/19. I was prepared to miss this trip...

Last minute trips sometimes turn out to be the best. Looks like you lovely ladies had a great time. Did you drive from TX ?

Safe travels and enjoy your trip ! Cheers !

Cool. Maybe we'll run across ? We're showing up for Universal Horror Nights on 9/15 and we'll be doing the Disney parks 9/16-9/18 !

We're just two weeks away from our trip. I'm looking forward to Horror Nights at Universal. I've always been a huge fan of Halloween. We have a Backstage Pass for Disney which my kids bought me for Father's Day. I don't know who that gift was for; myself or them. They purchased their own...

Reservations made last night for both Universal and Disney. We're doing the Disney backstage tour and the Universal RIP pass. Going to be a memorable trip. September 15-19.

Looks like my favorite bar keep wasn't working that day. Ron is the man !

The rain started up again right in time for our trip back to Jacksonville. I don't like driving in any type of precipitation, but we had to get back to my daughter's place. I like the new express lanes on I-4 around Orlando. There wasn't as much traffic in those lanes so I felt safer. After...

It was starting to rain again so we started our exit from our one day trip to Epcot. Some final pics of some great stuff.

And a few more.....

Time to walk off that food and beers. Just a few shots of some amazing topiaries.

We walked around a little while and then decided we would visit one last kitchen....always one of my favorites.....Northern Bloom. Everything was so good on the menu we ordered all of the mains..beef tenderloin tips with whipped potatoes and the seared scallops with beans and bacon. We also had...

It was getting late in the day, and after our extended rest at the DVC lounge, we were ready for a few more food samples. First one was the tuna tataki bowl from the Citrus Blossom with Sunshine Wine slushy and a Key Lime Hibiscus Ale. Pretty darn good. Next was the roasted corn (of course)...

Check out the "Leaning Tower of Eifel." What are the best seats on Soarin' where you get a 'straight' perspective of the sites you visit ?

Thanks. Not very much quality.

Soarin' wait time said it was 35 minutes. We decided to do it. We kept walking and walking until we were at the last part of the hallway right before the ride queue. Not bad. What is bad are my "bendy" pics from the ride itself.

We waited out the storm until it was just back to a drizzle. We decided to slow walk over to Soarin'. The slow-walk was more like a hop as we tried to avoid the puddles.

As soon as we got up to the lounge and seated, the skies opened up. We sat around for about :45 minutes waiting for the storm to blow through; LOTS of thunder & lighting. Check out this lady sitting across from us. Shoes off, pulls up another chair so she could lay down. Some people just...
