Disney Sea

I have been majorly distracted by the last few weeks of the school year. We have had Parties, and Field Trips, and Ballet, (Oh MY!)...Talent Shows, and Finals, and Meetings...English Classes, Bridging Ceremonies, and Dinners. Oh, and Mac and Tater caught a nasty Fever-Chills-Sore Throat Virus last week (she almost missed the last 4 days of school, but dragged herself up just in the nick of time for the Last-Day-Bowling-and-Pizza-For-Lunch Party. Whew!)

The last day of school was to be today, but thanks to President Bush, we're all at home (for the rainy season began last week) playing X-Box, watching reruns of "Friends", channel surfing, and computer-tinkering.

So. Now. Noodle is a 4th Grader and a Junior Girl Scout, and Dillon is a Sophomore, [and I am just another year older...].

Us Girls topped off the End Of The School-Year Chaos with a trip to Disney Sea yesterday, compliments of the Brownies. We had a GREAT time, and the rain actually held off for the day. Rachelle, Torrey, Noodle and I hung out all day together, riding the "Indiana Jones" Ride 4 times, and the "Journey To The Center Of The Earth" Ride 4 times as well. We ate lunch in Ariel's Grotto, saw the Mystic Something-Or-Other Rainforest show (which looked a lot like the Broadway production of "The Lion King", but a lot wetter), rode the Carousel, bought stupid souvenirs, ate Strawberry Popcorn (but passed up the Cappuccino Corn), did the Japanese version of 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea (no thanks), and a few other not-so-memorable rides.

At the end of the day, we were exhausted but happy. And thankful we had the two best friends a girl could ask for to spend it with us.
