Orlando

I had the fun opportunity to go to Disney World with my cousin and sister a couple of weeks ago.  If you look closely at the picture above, you'll be able to tell that I was sick with a furious cold.  Furious, because both my ears were blocked and my head felt like a giant soggy cotton ball.  I consumed more than the recommended dosage of cold medicine, and mostly followed them.  At one point (after riding the Everest roller coaster) I wondered where the hell I was, why the sky was so blue, why the blue hurt my eyes, and why the hell couldn't I stand up straight...

It was fun, however.

We saw hot air balloons hovering over foreign lands.

We went on a safari.

I made a droid - I call him RU-Indiana.

 We stumbled across a make-a-droid-bar.  My cousin and I shoved the little tykes aside and took our time manufacturing our ideal spaceship comrade/adventure buddies.  I love mine.  My cousin's had a Goofy hat.  It was equally as fabulous.

The hotel was beautiful.

And the fog was spooky.

ProTip - Epcot and Animal Kingdom are wonderful parks and require at least a full day.  You must eat in every land at Epcot, even if you are not hungry.  It is imperative.  My favorites - England (obviously), France, and wherever else there is food.  We ate dinner in Japan (amazing).  I had an egg roll in China.  I almost purchased caramel in Germany, but I was so friggin full by that point I wasn't sure I could waddle my way to the monorail.  So I refrained.  (That isn't the entire truth...I was full, but the main reason I didn't buy anything was because there was a line, and I was tired...did I mention I was sick?  The store smelled fabulous though.)
