It was a whopping 91F earlier today. This is like summer beach weather.

We had 2-3 days of the 40s back in November here in Sarasota...

Dear God, that's so awful. I don't think I'll ever live below 45N latitude again...unless it's far enough south to be cool again.

I love the cold weather so this year has been pretty disappointing. I was hoping for at least ice in Dallas.

where'd you get your DW tix?

1st day: Epcot, New Years Eve, busy as hell with huge lineups. All the other parks were full and Closed. Day was a dud, but managed to get on a few rides like the Living with the Land which was interesting(I want a tomato tree! :)). Saw the fireworks from a distance, but we(my bo's family, sister and Mother) were all glad to leave at 8ish to get back to our vacation home.

2nd day: Magic Kingdom, it rained hard most of the day soaking us through despite buying Mickey rain ponchos. Got picture with Mickey! Day was kinda miserable and I don't recall much of anything else happening.

3rd day: MGM Studios, first good day nice and sunny, did the Drew Carry Audio show, Lilo and Stitch(IIRC) thingy, Pirates ride, some ride looking at the history of movies, the Stunts show(awesome!), Indiana Jones show(awesome!), Beauty and the Beast(risking my mancard, but awesome! :D), ending the day with Fantasmic(awesome!). Overall my favorite day, though the next day is a close second.

4th day: Animal Kingdom, Conservation Station, Safari(awesome!), the various nature Trails(awesome!), not as many rides and whatnot, but everywhere seemed to have something interesting to see.

Between the second and third day at DW we all drove out to Pelican Island Park and a stop at the Atlantic(at a Beach..don't recall name though)for a day where at both we were swarmed by nasty black flies leaving us all red bumped and itchy as hell! I still have the red bumps 6 days later, but the itching has stopped! :D

Great vacation! Great climate!(we all loved the warmth and Humidity, though wonder how bad summers must be) Nasty black flies!! :| :D I kinda missed my mountains though, but my Mom and Sis live on the prarie and didn't mind the flat terrain. The biggest downer of the trip was seeing pics of myself and realizing just how bald I have become! :| :|

My Sis-in-law investigated some of them and found that they were more, but she may have missed some.

Yeah, I'd also like to find some good deals on the tickets. Going for a week down there at the end of feb. I think the wife is going to get the 5 day pass as it's only 10 more dollars than the 4 day pass, but if there's a better deal out there, post it.
