    Tablets in the parks...

    why? On this last trip I saw at least 6 people taking photograhs using a tablet. Why would you lug one around when point and shoot cameras are so small? Heck, even my Nikon D40 is easier to deal with than my tablet.

    We're back, worn out, broke and there is no food in the house...

    but we had a GREAT time and I met my great grand daughter for the first time. :) The parks were crowded but I've seen them worse. It was HOT but bearable. We made rope drop pretty much everyday and made good use of fast passes. The strict deadline did not interfere with anything. The only ADR's...

    Towel Clips

    I don't recall who mentioned the use of beach towel clips to mark strollers but thanks for a great idea. We bought some from Amazon and our granddaughter used them on our great granddaughters stroller and it stood out in the crowd, easilier spotted from a distance.

    Arrived Saturday August 4

    After checking in at our timeshare we went to DTD to get our annual passes and to have dinner at Fulton's. HOLY COW, was DTD packed. I really don't remember it ever being so crowded. Fulton's, on the other hand, seemed a bit less busy. Lobster bisque and king crab claws were as good as ever...

    I 75 south bound closed

    My wife and I just made the drive from SE Michigan to Hilton Head. South bound I 75 at the Kentucky/Tennessee border is closed for a lengthy stretch. We avoided that portion and created our own detour. I talked to a sheriff who could not tell me how long the closure would last.

    Arrhh, matey

    Yesterday I made reservations for Pirates League for my 3 grandsons, 8, 6, 3 and for myself (I'll turn 70 while there). I've seen the boys play at sword fighting so I'm afraid, very afraid. I'm really looking forward to this trip and building some good memories for the boys and my...
