Day 10


We woke up to find this on the door.



We were pretty tired from our late night before, but we were up and having breakfast by 9:30AM. This would be my last day drinking out of my Tigger mug as I needed to get the OL basically ready to seal up in the morning.



I made her a bacon sandwich with the last of the bacon.



Today I really needed to get packing since our DME would be leaving at 8:55AM the next day. I tossed a last load of laundry in the washer and got out all the remaining suitcases filling them one by one.

I put away just about everything we wouldn't need in the first three suitcases and left the last one for all the rest of the stuff like bathroom bags, dirty clothes from today, shoes, etc.

By 11AM we were nearly packed and out the door to AK. I had FP for the same three rides we went on the night before! At least I'm consistent!

We waited about 15 minutes for the bus and were on our way into the park just as our FP for the safari opened. This helped Fran's mood a little bit. She got excited as we saw the various animals throughout the journey. Excuse the many pictures.





















We had to wait a bit before we could go back to the station and unload. When we got off the safari, my FPs for FoP had opened up, so we headed to Pandora. On the way there she asked where I wanted to have lunch. I suggested the Yak and Yeti QS. She confused that with Harambe Market. Questioning why I always want to dine there.

I parked the scooter and went on the ride. Fran decided to check out the menu at Satuli Canteen, but she didn’t find anything she wanted. She ended up waiting it out in the store. I found her enjoying the AC (it was warm and muggy out), and I went on the ride a second time.

All that walking through the queue definitely built up my appetite. I had an hour and a half until my last FP expired. And here is where I messed up. We probably even went right past Eight Spoons, I could have tried their Mac and Cheese! But I totally forgot about it. Instead we headed over to Yak and Yeti QS.

We got an order of Honey Garlic Chicken, Chicken Fried Rice, and a pork egg roll.



My plate:



That was perfect for both of us and I was pleasantly full, but not so much that I couldn't ride Everest a couple times.



Not sure what happened to my other picture….

After the two rides we moseyed out of the park via the gift stores in front, where I ran into Kevin.







Before we left the park, our last in Orlando (for a while, little did we know), I convinced her to take some PP pictures. At least I got some in each of the four parks.











RAWR!



While I was riding Everest Fran had picked a donut similar to the one we tried to get about a week ago. We split it while we waited for the bus, which wasn't very long at all.



When we got back to the hotel, there was a movie shoot going on. Probably a commercial or something for the in room TV. We are used to seeing this kind of thing at home, but not on vacation.



Pretty soon we were back in the room. It was clear that we weren't going anywhere this evening. We were both tired. Fran was super cranky. In fact she was for most of the trip. There were extenuating circumstances related to the band which was causing her grief. Luckily, being away for so long gave her a chance to chill out and process the situation. She still wasn't happy, but she was no longer at the proverbial edge, like she was when we left.

So here's one of the complaints about this resort before I give my full overview. When we decided to just make do with food we had in the room for dinner, I wanted a vegetable to go with it, maybe a side salad. I went down to the QS hoping to find something small to bring back to the room.

These were my choices:

Tuna Niçoise Salad

Seared Rare Tuna on Crispy Greens tossed with Potatoes, Hard-boiled Egg, and a Dijon Vinaigrette

$13.99

Fresh Mozzarella and Tomato Salad

Mixed Greens topped with Fresh Mozzarella Slices and Wedge Tomatoes finished with a drizzle of Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar

$9.49

Greek Salad

Crispy Greens tossed with Tomatoes, Cucumbers, Red Onion, and Feta finished with a Vinaigrette Dressing; $12.99 to add chicken; $13.99 to add shrimp

$9.99

And they were all HUGE! I just wanted a little something to go with what we already had. Maybe just a green salad for $3.99, oh wait we're at Disney, $5.99. So I gave up and decided who needs vegetables on vacation.

Back in the room, I heated up our leftovers of chicken and ribs from the night before and I tried to make a package of noodles that I'd brought along.



I don't know if it was the pan or the stove (the pans were pretty cheap), but the noodles just didn't want to cook. Finally I just served them up relatively al dente. It wasn't the greatest dinner but we didn’t feel like going anywhere to get anything more spectacular.



We split the salted caramel truffle cake I got at Toothsome's. It was good but not amazing.



Then the fireworks started at Epcot. Finally we got to see them from our room!









I had pretty much packed up everything I could, we needed everything else to get ready in the morning, and I wasn't going to push it with her to pack up her stuff. I took my last bath of the trip and drifted off to sleep.

 

[pkondz]

Well, I don't think I had a problem with it, but Fran definitely seems to think it is too spicy for her.

Well, then I guess it is.
Was thinking of you this morning. It's a beautiful day today, so left early to work and took an alternate/longer route to work. There's a Popeyes being built not far from my house. Thought "Oh! I should tell Alison!" (And Vanessa too.)
But now I'm curious to try Popeyes in the US to see if it's any different. (The chicken I mean, not the sides.)

I'm hoping we will be back sooner rather than later, then again we won't be back to WDW for over a year now. I'm sure glad we went in February!

Yes, we will be back to that one much sooner.

Yep. Just a wee bit closer.

Yeah, I can't believe that we waited 4 hours to get her tiki mug! The things we do for our loved ones.

Then again, I waited... I think it was 3 hours... in the rain... just for some TR fodder.

Why do the things that taste so good do such horrible things?

Totally not fair. It's probably because we led bad past lives.

 

[pkondz]

We woke up to find this on the door.

Ugh. I hate seeing that thing.

I made her a bacon sandwich with the last of the bacon.

Just bacon and mayo on white? Or was there more to that?

I put away just about everything we wouldn't need in the first three suitcases and left the last one for all the rest of the stuff like bathroom bags, dirty clothes from today, shoes, etc.

Did I ever tell you I think you're very organized?

I had FP for the same three rides we went on the night before! At least I'm consistent!

Apparently so!

were on our way into the park just as our FP for the safari opened.

Perfect timing! Love that.

Excuse the many pictures.

Really like that first one.

When we got off the safari, my FPs for FoP had opened up,

More great timing.

I suggested the Yak and Yeti QS. She confused that with Harambe Market. Questioning why I always want to dine there.

Very much not the same thing!

And here is where I messed up. We probably even went right past Eight Spoons, I could have tried their Mac and Cheese! But I totally forgot about it.

Oh, no! You still haven't tried it? I love that so much!

We got an order of Honey Garlic Chicken, Chicken Fried Rice, and a pork egg roll.

That looks good, though.

I was pleasantly full, but not so much that I couldn't ride Everest a couple times.

Not sure what happened to my other picture….

What were you doing in it?

After the two rides we moseyed out of the park via the gift stores in front, where I ran into Kevin.

I'm always impressed with Kevin. And you got to meet her without a crowd around her!

Before we left the park, our last in Orlando (for a while, little did we know),

I convinced her to take some PP pictures.

Love the one with outstretched arms.

RAWR!

Fran had picked a donut similar to the one we tried to get about a week ago.

mmmm… looks yummy.

When we got back to the hotel, there was a movie shoot going on. Probably a commercial or something for the in room TV. We are used to seeing this kind of thing at home, but not on vacation.

I saw one going on at AK once. Was a bit surprised it was during the day, but maybe it's because kids were involved?

Fran was super cranky. In fact she was for most of the trip.

Oh, dear.

Luckily, being away for so long gave her a chance to chill out and process the situation. She still wasn't happy, but she was no longer at the proverbial edge, like she was when we left.

Good!

I don't know if it was the pan or the stove (the pans were pretty cheap), but the noodles just didn't want to cook

Huh. The pan wasn't conducting heat well, I take it?

Then the fireworks started at Epcot. Finally we got to see them from our room!

 

[missjackiemcg]

Oh, sadness It always puts a damper on the last day, even though you still have one full day of fun left!

Your safari pics are beautiful. I love this one!! Mine are always bumpy/blurry!

Such a bummer about not being able to get a simple salad or vegetable side to go with your meal, but I'm impressed with what you put together! And for what it's worth, I can't get those noodle dishes to cook at home on the stove we use every day, LOL.

I'm sad that your truffle cupcake wasn't more delicious...it certainly looks like it should have been decadent!!!

 

[franandaj]

Well, then I guess it is.
Was thinking of you this morning. It's a beautiful day today, so left early to work and took an alternate/longer route to work. There's a Popeyes being built not far from my house. Thought "Oh! I should tell Alison!" (And Vanessa too.)
But now I'm curious to try Popeyes in the US to see if it's any different. (The chicken I mean, not the sides.)

I'm wondering if I should try it again. It's been a long time since I had any.....spicy chicken is very popular here. Lots of new places are opening up here, and all of them tout how spicy hot they can serve it.

Then again, I waited... I think it was 3 hours... in the rain... just for some TR fodder.

Yes you did!

Totally not fair. It's probably because we led bad past lives.

That was a non-sequitor!

Ugh. I hate seeing that thing.

It does kind of put a damper on the trip. Then again the trip I didn't get one sort of made me worry that we wouldn't be able to get to the airport.

Just bacon and mayo on white? Or was there more to that?

Yup. That's pretty much it. Unless the bread is old, then it's made on toast. She likes things sort of bland.

Did I ever tell you I think you're very organized?

No you have not. Thanks. With all the chaos in my life and home, I try to organize the things that I can control.

Perfect timing! Love that.

Really like that first one.

The one with the truck going on it's two week journey?

Very much not the same thing!

I know, not sure why she confused those two places!

Oh, no! You still haven't tried it? I love that so much!

That's why I was kicking myself after I missed it!

That looks good, though.

It did hit the spot!

What were you doing in it?

Don't even remember now....

I'm always impressed with Kevin. And you got to meet her without a crowd around her!

You of all people should know, the wonders of photoshop!



OMG! I just noticed that I neglected to remove the kid's finger from the edited shot!

Love the one with outstretched arms.

I was afraid the extra flab on my arms might be showing in that one.

mmmm… looks yummy.

It was! That's one thing that we haven't had a shortage of in the pandemic! Donuts are still plentiful, we even waited for half an hour in a line at Krispy Kreme for Fran's free dozen donuts for her birthday.

I saw one going on at AK once. Was a bit surprised it was during the day, but maybe it's because kids were involved?

Well they also can't "fake" sunlight.....

Oh, dear.

Yeah, the day before the trip, she wanted me to find someone else to go instead of her.

Huh. The pan wasn't conducting heat well, I take it?

That must have been it, I can't think of anything else.

 

[franandaj]

Oh, sadness It always puts a damper on the last day, even though you still have one full day of fun left!

Funny how everyone hates seeing it, but the one time we didn't get one, it was even more disconcerting because I was afraid we wouldn't be able to get to the airport to get home!

Your safari pics are beautiful. I love this one!! Mine are always bumpy/blurry!

I use a very fast shutter speed, but yes a lot also come out blurry. I also take a TON of pictures.

Such a bummer about not being able to get a simple salad or vegetable side to go with your meal

I know! You'd think that would be a simple one, but I suppose they want you to purchase the bigger ticket items instead of the small stuff.

I'm impressed with what you put together! And for what it's worth, I can't get those noodle dishes to cook at home on the stove we use every day, LOL.

They used to come out really watery for me, and then I started boiling them very hard and letting them sit for 5 minutes, not the 2 minutes they suggest on the package. At home, all my stove top pans are All-Clad or Cordon Bleu, so I'm really spoiled. I couldn't even get this batch to come to a boil!

I'm sad that your truffle cupcake wasn't more delicious...it certainly looks like it should have been decadent!!!

Maybe we waited too long to eat it, but I remember that the frosting also wasn't as tasty as it should have been.

 

[Paulines]

Very glad to have you here! Where in New England are you? I was born in Boston and went back for several weeks every summer to stay with my grandparents. We spent a lot of time at their house on the Cape as well as in town.

We’re in SE MA, not too far from the cape.

They sold them in large cartons? We don't have BJs out here, but I got them at Ralphs (Kroger) and they came in six packs for around $7-8. The only difference between the store bought ones and the ones in the parks is the store bought ones were 3oz while the ones in the park are 4oz. I think the chocolate coating on the ones in the park are a little thicker, but the flavors are pretty much identical.

I think the cartons were either 12 or 15 count? I don’t recall the size of the bars. Right now, we’re working our way through some Haagen Dazs bars in the freezer

I'm not even trying to book anything (for myself). We've decided we won't be back at WDW until Sept/Oct 2021. So yesterday I rented out the rest of my 2020 BCV points to two different sets of folks through one of the rental sites. I still have some points at the WL to rent out, but there isn't anyone looking right now.

I do have some nights in March booked at the Grand Californian, and we'll probably make a few day trips out there once the parks open up, but no word on that beyond the date they plan on opening up in July.

Nice!!! Never been to DL! DD and I will hold out until more of Epcot’s eateries open up. A big part of our vacation is dining, so that’s that.

 

[pkondz]

I'm wondering if I should try it again. It's been a long time since I had any.....spicy chicken is very popular here. Lots of new places are opening up here, and all of them tout how spicy hot they can serve it.

Don't know about down there, but up here you can chose between spicy or... not.
And the "not" is definitely not spicy at all.

Yes you did!

That was a non-sequitor!

It does kind of put a damper on the trip. Then again the trip I didn't get one sort of made me worry that we wouldn't be able to get to the airport.

Oh! Dang, that's a good point. I would definitely be worried if I didn't have it. Would also necessitate either a call or a visit to the front desk.

Yup. That's pretty much it. Unless the bread is old, then it's made on toast. She likes things sort of bland.

And yet... bacon.

No you have not. Thanks. With all the chaos in my life and home, I try to organize the things that I can control.

The one with the truck going on it's two week journey?

I always see (and have posted) animal shots. That one is a rarity.

That's why I was kicking myself after I missed it!

Make sure you go next time! But be careful. 8 Spoons isn't open very long and they also run out. It's gotten very popular.

You of all people should know, the wonders of photoshop!

True, but every time I've seen her, she's been mobbed with people on all sides. No way to take them all out. At least not without a lot of work.

OMG! I just noticed that I neglected to remove the kid's finger from the edited shot!

I didn't notice! Blends in pretty good there.

I was afraid the extra flab on my arms might be showing in that one.

Nope!

It was! That's one thing that we haven't had a shortage of in the pandemic! Donuts are still plentiful, we even waited for half an hour in a line at Krispy Kreme for Fran's free dozen donuts for her birthday.

I miss Krispy Kreme. And Voodoo.

Well they also can't "fake" sunlight.....

Yes they can. Daylight balanced lights.

Yeah, the day before the trip, she wanted me to find someone else to go instead of her.

 

[DnA2010]

We had a choice of Flame Tree, Pizzasafari, Satuli Canteen, or Restaurantosaurus

Sigh- Flame Tree- a little bit of deliciousness that I didn't know about on the day I went to AK...
As you know, my WDW in person time is highly lacking, and we were hoping for a big Florida trip either next year or the year after...wanted to do some sort of cruise/WDW combo, but who knows now..Flame tree would have def been a pic for AK days...we did a buffet the day we were there, I'm having a moment now which one it was without going and searching, but did have some African stuff

Boy is Everest a trip in the dark! So much fun!

Couldn't have been that fun given you're catching zz's!

nd I decided that a Blue Drink was in order!

hehe I know you love yourself some blue drinks

We got on shortly before 10PM when it closed. I didn't have the phone camera ready to take any shots, honestly I didn't think they would come out. But evidently those sleeping animatronic lions are replaced with active live counterparts at night, because they were roaming around like prowling animals. Several of the other species were quite active as well. It was pretty neat to do this after hours after all!

I didn't know that the ran the Safari during the evening! Glad those animatronics were powered up! Sounds great!

Mickey Bars and Flight of passage. They were giving out the Mickey bars in Starbucks next to Africa and they were handing them out two at a time!

Nom nom nom!!

So I gave Fran my other bar and while I went on the ride, she ended up eating three Mickey Bars!

I could probably do it- I love love ice cream!

This looks so great! Maria is a big fan of the movies and would love to see this ride.

By now it was 11:20, my eyelids were drooping and I had to admit that I was tired. We had agreed earlier in the day that we did not want to stay all the way until midnight

Well you made it pretty darn close!

What a fun night!

 

[DnA2010]

Wow I was so excited about the ribs, I showed them twice... whooops LOL

 

[franandaj]

We’re in SE MA, not too far from the cape.

I'm not familiar with that area. In fact I looked at the map and I'm only familiar with the places my Grandma took me on the streetcar in Boston, and the beaches and pond we visited on the cape. I never drove since I was a kid when I visited so I really don't know much about the area.

I think the cartons were either 12 or 15 count? I don’t recall the size of the bars. Right now, we’re working our way through some Haagen Dazs bars in the freezer

That would be awesome! We would go through a box so quickly with only six. I would buy them two at a time when I found them.

Nice!!! Never been to DL! DD and I will hold out until more of Epcot’s eateries open up. A big part of our vacation is dining, so that’s that.

Growing up on the West Coast, obviously I've been many times.

I can understand waiting for more restaurants to open up. I was disappointed to read the Disney Food Blog where they listed what hotel restaurants would be open and most of my favorites were not on that list.

 

[DnA2010]

Booo!

That bacon samie on the right is looking pretty tasty right about now!

Those guys are gorgeous!

Are these folks on some sort of tour?

We are family! I got all my....

It's a tough life...

Ride photos are always entertaining...the boys behind you are not quite feeling the excitement

Well hello there!

Are you wearing a shirt of delicious beverages?...

RAWR!

You are!! Love that shirt!
Looks like Fran found a few things..you guys must have a lot of Disney bags...

There were extenuating circumstances related to the band which was causing her grief. Luckily, being away for so long gave her a chance to chill out and process the situation.

I hope there weren't 11 million calls and such on this trip?

And they were all HUGE! I just wanted a little something to go with what we already had. Maybe just a green salad for $3.99, oh wait we're at Disney, $5.99. So I gave up and decided who needs vegetables on vacation.

$5.99? why am I not surprised!

I don't know if it was the pan or the stove (the pans were pretty cheap), but the noodles just didn't want to cook.

I have actually had some success with this sort of thing in the ol' nuker!

Then the fireworks started at Epcot. Finally we got to see them from our room!

Wowzas! Very nice!


Boo you are on the home stretch!

 

[franandaj]

Don't know about down there, but up here you can chose between spicy or... not.
And the "not" is definitely not spicy at all.

We have the choice of Mild or Spicy as well. Now I want to try Popeyes, but maybe once I can chew better.

Oh! Dang, that's a good point. I would definitely be worried if I didn't have it. Would also necessitate either a call or a visit to the front desk.

Actually its not the front desk, they will refer you to call DME directly.

And yet... bacon.

Well bacon is universal!

I always see (and have posted) animal shots. That one is a rarity.

Huh. I always take one of the sign. We were waiting at the loading area until they could fill up the car. They don't always have enough people to fill the truck with people who need the HA loading area. While we were waiting for them to fill the truck with folks from the regular queue, I decided to snap one of the sign. I like to catch the ride vehicles in pictures in case I'm trying to show someone who's never been what its like.

Make sure you go next time! But be careful. 8 Spoons isn't open very long and they also run out. It's gotten very popular.

I've got to try and remember. Right now we're looking at Sept 28 - Oct 8, 2021.

True, but every time I've seen her, she's been mobbed with people on all sides. No way to take them all out. At least not without a lot of work.

I remembered you saying to try and get as many pictures as you could from the same angle. But Kevin kept moving so it was impossible. I just waited until I got a few without anyone too close.

I didn't notice! Blends in pretty good there.

I didn’t notice either, until I was showing you the original. I was concentrating on the shadows from the kid and her mom and forgot the hand.

I miss Krispy Kreme. And Voodoo.

Never been to VooDoo. We have a place here called Knead. Their original location is near our old house, and they recently opened a location close to our current house. These don't look as good as they taste. But this place is dangerous.

Yes they can. Daylight balanced lights.

How do they do that? And get the right shadows.

 

[Paulines]

Those cinnamon sticks look amazing We have no delicious donut places near us.

 

[pkondz]

We have the choice of Mild or Spicy as well. Now I want to try Popeyes, but maybe once I can chew better.

I saw something about that, but missed most of it. A dentist in the past did a number on a tooth/gum and you need to get that fixed?

Actually its not the front desk, they will refer you to call DME directly.

Ah.

Right now we're looking at Sept 28 - Oct 8, 2021.

That's not all that far away. Do you think you'll go? Florida isn't exactly a great place to be right now. Then again, neither is California, but I think Florida is worse?

Whoa. I think I Knead to pay this place a visit.

How do they do that? And get the right shadows.

Daylight balanced bulbs (5000-6500K), reflectors. Actually can make it more daylight looking than daylight.

 

[franandaj]

Sigh- Flame Tree- a little bit of deliciousness that I didn't know about on the day I went to AK...
As you know, my WDW in person time is highly lacking,

Well next time you go I will be happy to help with planning! I hope things will jot have changed that much that I don't know whats up!

and we were hoping for a big Florida trip either next year or the year after...wanted to do some sort of cruise/WDW combo, but who knows now..Flame tree would have def been a pic for AK days...we did a buffet the day we were there, I'm having a moment now which one it was without going and searching, but did have some African stuff

I'm guessing Tusker House. We did that a couple trips back to get seating for Rivers of Light. It was good. Lots of choices, both American and African, but i definitely like Flame Tree and it had been far too long since we'd eaten there.

Couldn't have been that fun given you're catching zz's!

hehe I know you love yourself some blue drinks

I even bought me some Blue Curacao to make them at home. We just haven't had the time to do it.

I didn't know that the ran the Safari during the evening! Glad those animatronics were powered up! Sounds great!

Only during special events like this one did they have all these rides running. Usually AK closes at dusk.

Nom nom nom

I could probably do it- I love love ice cream!

While I love it, the dairy knocks me out, or maybe its the sugar, but something about ice cream does me in. Funny cause I made whipped cream with Splenda tonight and it didn't do me in like vanilla ice cream. We had pie and ran out of ice cream last night, but I had heavy cream so I whipped it to go with the pie and I'm not fading like I would with ice cream.... hmmmm

This looks so great! Maria is a big fan of the movies and would love to see this ride.

This is such a great ride! I definitely understand the hype and the wait, although I would never wait 180 minutes for it!

Well you made it pretty darn close!

What a fun night!

Yes a little to late for our old selves, but it was fun!

 

[franandaj]

Wow I was so excited about the ribs, I showed them twice... whooops LOL

yeah I thought that was kind of funny!

Booo!

Its always bittersweet. I've usually had a lovely time, but by the end of the trip I'm missing my kitty companions.

On our trip to New Zealand, at a bed and breakfast, we had a three paw'd cat that stayed with us in our guest house. In fact on our last day he brought us a gift mouse. I think that helped us through the two week trip, not missing our cats as much.

That bacon samie on the right is looking pretty tasty right about now!

She likes hers with bread, mayo and bacon. I prefer mine grilled with cheese!

Those guys are gorgeous!

I would imagine you'd like that species

Are these folks on some sort of tour?

Yes, its the Wild Africa Trek. A special tour you can book, but have to be able bodied to do it.

We are family! I got all my....

It's a tough life...

I know.

Ride photos are always entertaining...the boys behind you are not quite feeling the excitement

I dont think anyone in the car is going with the flow!

Well hello there!

Are you wearing a shirt of delicious beverages?...

You are!! Love that shirt!

Yes it is a shirt of Trader Sam’s beverages. FL version.

Looks like Fran found a few things..you guys must have a lot of Disney bags...

I dont even know what she found. But as we sell off our Disney stuff, she has me put them in the Disney bags in case the packages get caught in the rain.

I hope there weren't 11 million calls and such on this trip?

No not this trip. She just had some bad news the day before she left that had her down.

$5.99? why am I not surprised!

That was just my extrapolation if they had a garden salad. The cheapest one was $9.99.

I have actually had some success with this sort of thing in the ol' nuker!

Huh. I've only done them on the stove.

Wowzas! Very nice!


Boo you are on the home stretch!

But closer to your cameo in the bonus features!

 

[franandaj]

Those cinnamon sticks look amazing We have no delicious donut places near us.

The cinnamon sticks were actually not as good as the two at the top. The heart shaped one was filled with butterceam.

 

[franandaj]

I saw something about that, but missed most of it. A dentist in the past did a number on a tooth/gum and you need to get that fixed?

I had gum surgery sometime way back, Fran was in the picture, but I still lived up in the SF valley. They just went in hacked out a bunch of my gums at the back of my mouth. Since then my hygenist has to be very delicate in that area. Evidently it got bad enough that he (the Periodontist) had to go in, clean it all out and then do a bone graft to the part that was missing so my tooth had a "higher wall" to hold it in. Otherwise it would eventually have needed to come out, still may. This was the most invasive solution to the problem, but the most likely for me to keep that tooth.

It was a week ago, and the pain is just sort of starting to subside. I think the stitches are starting to dissolve too.

That's not all that far away. Do you think you'll go? Florida isn't exactly a great place to be right now. Then again, neither is California, but I think Florida is worse?

Florida is far worse for reasons that can not be discussed on the DIS. The P word. However, I'm hoping by January of next year, the 21st to be exact, we should start turning this thing around. If everyone isn't already dead yet.

Whoa. I think I Knead to pay this place a visit.
