Disneyworld With Rebecca, Penelope, And Jeremy, 1

It would be the first of two visits from Rebecca and Penelope, the second in late January/early February. Since this blog has ample Disney posts--just enter "Disney" in the search box and be amazed; or appalled, as the case may be--I won't attempt to be comprehensive nor chronologically correct. Many different cameras/phones cooperated on this post and the sequel. Oh yes, it was Christmastime, so there's that too, as well as pix from the miscellaneous wanderings Vicki and I do, both at Disney and in the neighborhood here at our Lake Buena Vista residence.

Ready to blast off in Tomorrowland (i.e., the Present, as envisaged in 1970)

Happy Place

Really about to blast off

Guarding the Galaxy

Posing before the world's largest golf ball

Thinking ahead...this will be the first Xmas when we can all watch
Family Christmas Vacation together...Penelope is now 13 and will soon
see the source of so many family cinematic allusions...

My currently favorite ride (apart from the outbound tram)

Off property: in the massive food court of the massively massive
Orlando Vineland Premium Outlets, just across I-4 from our apartment
(a quarter of a mile, as the horseflies; 4 miles to get around I-4)

Line to get into the Disney Character Warehouse, in the Outlets, where
you can pick up last year's Disney paraphernalia for nearly reasonable
prices

Inside (Iron Chef) Morimoto's resto at Disney Springs

Really excellent pre-tariff Peking Duck

At the Roundup Rodeo resto in Hollywood Studios--as much as you
can eat BBQ

"These are not the 'droids you're looking for," she is saying

Miss Piggy Shrine

Arches National Park; or possibly the Planet Batuu

Back to reality

Standing in line...

Ready to blast off

At one of the thousands of merch shoppes, this at the Contemporary [1970]
Resort

Beignets at the French Quarter

We have gotten to Animal Kingdom several times

Notable for having non-animatronic animals
