Disney Vacation

On the first day we stayed at Karen's house (Cecil's sister's house). Friday night we sat outside gazing at the bright stars (so much brighter in Florida, away from city lights) next to a little fire! Cecil was helping Steve with getting outdoor speakers to work. Shaun, Maria's new husband! gave Cecil a hair cut since he is a barber in the Navy.

Dana and Lauren had fun playing with their cousin Maria!

Linda (as always) had to spent 10 hours writing a paper. Thankfully we can see the light at the end of the tunnel on that aspect!

Tonight I saw Venus and Jupiter. I have to figure out how to go online and get a picture of it. Apparently you can do that by zip code on Nasa.gov

On the first day in Disney World we went to Magical Kingdom. Weather was perfect...

Had a great lunch at Liberty Tree (gee, just what we wanted; go all the way to Orlando to have lunch in a PA style restaurant!!).

We saw the parade.....

Dinner at a fancy restaurant at the Contemporary Resort called "The Wave"
