Back to Disney and all the magic. That's where life has taken me for a few days. And, oh, this is a confession, I am so not a Disney person.
It's like being in another country to be on the Disney properties. The rate of exchange (what I pay for a meal or experience or stuff) is high. The hospitality is warm, but forced. And, besides, in January, even Florida is cold.
My wise and sage mother-in-law always says that if you want to be warm in the winter, go to the Caribbean. Well, warm weather is not an issue. Getting out of the rain and the ice might be.
So, today is explore the new Fantasyland. I like Beauty and the Beast, so maybe the magic will begin to envelope me at Belle's Castle.
Here's hoping that works. Magically. Now. Today. Soon.

Your wise mother-in-law once traveled with the family to Puerto Rico for a vacation and the only obstacle was the fact that their luggage didn't arrive, and when it finally showed up after they returned to Pigeon, every suitcase was sopping wet inside and out--did it fall off the plane into the ocean? Who knows, but it was memorable and somewhat amusing much after the fact.
ReplyDeleteActually it is 70 today in Tampa, and it was in the 80s last week - are you sure you didn't bring the cold with you? ;)

Yes, Pam, we do bring cold and rain with us. Ed drags the rain to Arizona almost every time we go. They WELCOME him there!
ReplyDeleteWonderful story, Jo. Wonder if Beth or Sue can fill in some more details of the soggy suitcases. Or maybe Aunt Bev has the story since it was probably a venture out to see her in PR. In the words of Bob Hope, "Thanks for the memories."
