Last week was quite busy - unpacking from one trip and packing for another....taking care of bills and getting back into the routine of work. I didn't have much time to be online, thus the little blog break. This past weekend I had the amazing opportunity to meet some friends at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. It was such a wonderful trip and I'm so glad that I went.
On Friday we spent some time at Magic Kingdom, did some shopping in Downtown Disney, and returned to the Magic Kingdom to watch the amazing fireworks show over the castle. On Saturday I spent most of the day at Epcot, then freshened up at the hotel before a very special dinner with everyone. We all got to have our pictures taken with Disney characters!
We were led to a secret, special place for our time with the characters and then enjoyed a very yummy dinner buffet. After dinner we were led to another secret spot - a private deck right on the water with an amazing dessert buffet. We had the perfect view of the fireworks and light show over the water at Epcot and all felt very special....it was all quite magical (as they would say at Disney!)
It is Sunday and I am composing this post on the plane from Kansas City, which is where my flight from Orlando took me. It's a 4-hour flight to Portland and we're about half-way there. At the moment we are encountering some major turbulence - eeek!
I can't WAIT to see Graham (and Wil too of course) when I finally get back to Eugene - this is the longest I've been away from G and I'm really missing him. I brought back some goodies from Disney and hope that makes up for my absence, though I hear he's been doing just fine without me :)
There will be pictures from Disney and a few stories to tell, but I haven't had a chance to get through them all yet. I will be looking forward to seeing everyone else's pictures from the weekend as well.
