Almost Go Time

In less than 10 hours we will be heading to the airport. Florida is so close. The bags are packed and ready to go. The only thing left on today’s to do list, apart from sleeping, is my daughter Bellana is not here yet. Once she gets here, all of the preparations will be complete.

Disney Bound.

Getting Close

It is Wednesday. Vacation starts on Saturday, three days from now. The Florida trip starts on Sunday, four days from now. The temperature gauge in my car told me that it was -3 degrees out as I was driving through Wilmington, MA a couple of hours ago. Florida can’t get here soon enough, know what I mean?

This photo is inside a Disney Resort Hotel. That’s why it applies to the topic of this post. It’s not obvious so I figured I’d explain. Maybe I’ll post another Disney on film thing later just to be more obvious. We’ll see.

Making Plans

Five days until the first full day of vacation. Six days until we fly to Florida. We’re starting to finalize our plans for our week at Disney World. There is an after hours thing at Hollywood Studios one night, and another at Magic Kingdom on a different night. The after hours things are fantastic. It feels like you have the entire park to yourself.

Five work days to go…
Six days until we’re on vacation…
Seven days until we’re in Florida.

Oh yeah, and it’s snowing out and we could get eight inches of the shit tonight. Yippee. It’s gonna be a loooong week.

Closer and Closer

It is just about 2:30pm on Friday January 17th. One week from today I will be post-lunch on the last work day before vacation. How am I going to focus on the real world over the intervening week? The Vacation is becoming an all consuming obsession. Partly because I really want to go, but also because it stops me from stressing about the end of American society on Monday next week.

The first full day of vacation is eight days away. The Florida/Disney World return is nine days away. I can’t wait to go. I can do without the upcoming shit hitting the fan on Monday the 20th though.

Nine Days

Vacation starts in nine days. Florida trip starts in 10 days. Getting close enough to fog my brain with vacationitis.

Not many people know this, but the Tomorrowland People Mover is THE BEST ride in all of Disney World. By far. Nothing even comes close (other than Rise of the Resistance and Smuggler’s Run). The People Mover RULES.

10 Days

10 days until vacation. 11 days until the return to Florida. Here in Massachusetts it is very cold outside. In Florida… we’re hoping it won’t be cold at all. A boy can dream, right?

Note, this trip will probably be our last chance to take blurry film photos of the Muppets at Hollywood Studios. Changes are coming and the Muppet neighborhood is getting the axe. sadface.
