Hey, was looking thru the menus for Food & Wine and did you see that the Germany booth has a Wild Cherry Hefeweizen. This sounds interesting, have to give it a try.

Love your Gaston shirt! Great pics especially in front of Tree of Life. Really makes me want a better phone/camera!

Oh, the pictures are amazing! Your daughter in her Elsa PJ’s holding her Anna doll! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

With the trip a few weeks in the rear-view mirror, are the good memories taking over and pushing out the frustrated ones? I hope so!

Video or it didn’t happen!

(So torn about posting this comment. One of the attorneys here used to always go off to Juvenile Court with strict instructions that if anyone cried, it was his job to record it or it didn’t happen. … Humor gets pretty dark around here, I guess…)

(That attorney is now an administrative law judge, so he gets to hear the tears on the phone instead of in person.) (He takes away welfare for a living.) (I could never work in a job like that.)

They are indeed. Especially looking at the photos, it is easy to forget the chaos that generally isn’t shown. But you can still see the grumpiness in a few of them, haha!

Yes, looking at the photos, you would never know you had any frustrating moments!

I also really love the picture of DD and the Miss Piggy fountain. But the tree with the three kids is so good. And the one of Nomad Lounge!

I really don’t know the story at all since we were pretty far away and couldn’t hear their conversation. But the skipper facing completely away from us showed up and all the others squealed and started hugging her and they were all crying. Maybe she just got engaged or found out she was pregnant or something, but it seemed to me that it was her first day back and they were all excited about it.

DS4 had long been our spicy food lover. He will actually drink salsa if we’re not looking…

I asked for extra salsa and they brought out that huge bowl on the bottom right. Perfect for DS4!
