The Visit - Chapter Two

On Friday we spent the day shopping since the weather was rainy.  We stopped at a few of my favourite shopping spots, and Auntie Denise had a great time, while Auntie Pauline spent more time looking than actually buying.  Our last stop was the Florida Mall, so we stopped there for a bite to eat.
On Saturday we decided to go to Disney.  With school break in Canada and in the USA, we thought we might get a jump start on all the tourist types.  And, because we all wanted to, we started at Epcot.

Then, as soon as Auntie Denise got all the pictures she wanted for a little while, we did our tour of all the sights and International Ave.  The weather was perfect - not too hot, and not too cool, with a bit of a breeze and lots of sunshine.  Late in the afternoon we decided to hop on the monorail and head over to the Magic Kingdom with the intention of watching the parade and then going back to Epcot for the fireworks. 
 

You just wouldn't believe the hordes of people we ran into at Magic Kingdom.  By the time we made our way through the throngs to the castle, we were hot, tired and thirsty.  So, after some consultation, we decided to go back to the villa for some R&R.  On the way home, at Auntie Grumpy's request, we stopped for supper at Bob Evans and then crashed for the night.

I did manage to finish Mommee's silly socks.   Here is the end product.
What?  I know they don't match....they are called silly socks - remember?  I also started another piece of lace for Auntie Colleen.  This one is called rosebud and looks like this.
Can you see rosebuds?

Oh yes, and the long and the short of the Munchie story looks like this.
Hee!  Get it?  The long and the short?  LOL!  Munchie got a new bathing suit and he is still taking lessons and preparing for the 2022 Olympics.

  1. Wow! That lace is gorgeous. My favourite yet and that's saying a lot.
    I love seeing Epcot and the Aunts. What a great time.
    The final picture of the swimmers is priceless.
