I just figured out what this is like?????

I like to watch golf. When I am at work I can follow the "action" by monitoring a live blog on Golf.com. Streaming video is not allowed here. The blog traffic is sort of like "Bubba's on the 3rd tee".... (a couple of minutes later) "Oh no, he hooked it and hit a spectator in the back of the head"... (a couple of minutes later) "Bubba gave the injured spectator a signed glove as the ambulance drove away".

I can keep up with the golf, but without pictures it leaves a lot to the imagination.

What Jeff is doing is sort of like the golf blog, but the pictures just bring it to life!

Jeff's updates are so much better the reading a golf blog. Although Bubba really did hit a spectator in the back of the head and spectator injuries, like crashes in NASCAR & F1, have a certain appeal that I am not proud of.

Hey Jeff,
We're heading to EPCOT tomorrow (Sat.) and were wondering where you will be. Three Dog Night is at American Gardens tomorrow night.
Mike said he'd buy you a Dole Whip, but since you're not a big fan...we'll take you on the Mexico ride instead! LOL

Dang...that's it. I remember seeing those chairs when we stayed at the Contemporary, but I couldn't remember exactly which restaurant. I should have guessed the Contempo Cafe because we didn't eat at Chef Mickey's. Too funny! Enjoy your night!

SUPER MAGICAL BONUS!!

Between the Main Street Electric parade and Wishes, we met AJ from The Disney Food Blog!!!

She's as awesome in person as she is on the blog and podcasts. Made our day and trip.

How's that for an amazing end to our first full day?

Wow the trip looks awesome! The cheer competition is the 2012 USASF/IASF/ICU Worlds. The ICU was a few days before the others, so they'll be out in the next day. The USASF/IASF girls will be there until at least Tuesday! I imagine it'll be really annoying for you guys to have cheerleaders running around everywhere, but trust me, they've worked super hard to get where they are and it's the most prestigious competition in the world. They're probably crazy from excitement haha! I'm going to watch on Sunday for Finals. It will be sad to be so close to the parks, but not to go in them! It's at Wide World of Sports. Smile

Hi Julie and everyone else! Today will take us to Hollywood Studios!

Thanks for that info on the cheer competition, isabelle! They've been really non-annoyingm I was worried they would be ruinning around cheering 24-7, but I hardly even noticed them except for they all wear the same shirts! Haha. Must take real talent to make this trip!

More later Smile

That sucks that it broke down....How long did you wait in line only to have it break down on you? Did they give you a fast pass to something else to make up for it? And how's your knee holding up?
