brandywine bay
We organized a puppy playdate at brandywine bay, a beach we rarely go to. the dogs are no where to be seen (there were about 8!) as they were running around like crazies. but the bay lent itself to some interesting photos. the children were able to walk across to the island, and the pipes sticking out of the ground are baby mangroves, planted to help keep the manmade beach secure and as they get larger they will provie hurricane protection.
disney: epcot
epcot was by far our favorite bit of disney world. the kids loved sourin' and the finding nemo aquarium and "talk to crush" show(if you decide to do the latter, arm yourself with questions about sea turtles to ask him!) but we spent hours in japan. seeing as quincy loves all things japanese (sushi! pokemon! hello kitty! rice!) we knew she would enjoy it..and figured jed would like the hibachi restaurant. well, we watched drumming, candy sculpting, and hit the gift shop (no mickey mouse...finally!). Jed especially loved the onion volcano!

disney: seeds of change tour
being the smarty-pants of the family, i insisted we attend the "seeds of change: behind the seeds" tour. we learned about hydroponics, alligator and fish farming, pest control, and the ever-important mouse-ears pumpkin. even though it was educational, we all enjoyed the tour imensely, and highly recommend it for anyone visiting epcot.
disney: mgm
we spent a day at mgm studios...and were thrilled to see darth vader and "stormy" signing autographs..we were all very excited. then the WHOLE group went to the mom's kitchen restaurant (reservation for 14 please!). here i tried to order a gin and tonic and was carded! then the barkeep SCOLDED me ("you should know better!")....arrgh! but we still managed to have a good time, and matt was treated to several gluten-free goodies....cake! dinner rolls! gravy! mmmmmm
