The Eo Inn Orlando

... the local weather with my cousin Maureen that lives in the Orlando area I was more convinced that I made the right decission, but then my cousin Maureen suggested I still go but stay at her place, which is what we ended up doing, and I am glad I did because my kids and I had a great weekend and I got to spend some time with my cousin Maureen that I very much enjoyed.

... stream - see video below. Julie stood next to a huge stuffed alligator in a gift shop on international drive (see picture).

In the afternoon went to wet n wild and had another go on some rides. I carefully stayed out of the sun to give the sunburn chance to heal.

all told a lazy day .... but a nice one. Also had some chocolate covered pretzels... yum yum...

... and after the bomb. I explained how the program could so quickly handle such a large image (~10MB) across the limited bandwidth internet connection.

“The program creates several resolutions of the image, plus creates square tiles within each of those images. So, only the required resolution tiles needs to be sent from the off-site server to my computer. When you pan or zoom, the unneeded data is discarded and the new resolution tiles are ...

... Then right after that we went on the Aladdin ride. That was pretty fun. After that we went to the haunted Mansion… not very fun… kinda boring. Then we went on the Peter Pan Flight… it was kewl, we got to fly over London. Then we went on the Stitches Great Escape… Oi. IT HURT! The restraints pressed down on your shoulders soo hard! GAA! After that we went to the Buzz light years space ranger spin. My gun locked up a ...

... and drove over to Disney’s Polynesian Hotel to have dinner at Kona Café. Our reservation was for 8:00 but we asked if we could be seated early. They told us they probably would be unable to do so but actually did seat us in about 10 minutes. That was great because both Steve and I were starving.

At least there is something to sit on and enjoy the ...

Once we were back home at Walmart carpark, showered and reflecting, we were very happy, with our bargains in our 12 hour day (that was going to be 4 at the most!), and everyone had got something, although the Tara/togs saga has not ended .... Stay tuned ....

A very good PR job! universal was good, more laid back and more of a movie appeal. the rides were tamer, although i had to close my eyes for a while on the new simpsons ride....the technology makes it so real! Em again - universal was lots of fun. matt is now training to be a magician - watch this space ...

... if we saw all the characters.  I told him about my drink and he sent the waitress over, but said that she couldn't do anything about not seeing all the characters.  We left the restaurant at 5:30, not completely happy with our experience.  I felt bad that I had dragged everyone along to a pretty expensive character meal when the food and service weren't worth the price.  As pretty as the restaurant is, and as good as the corn stuffing was ...
