Where We Stayed at WDW and My Hair!

More on the spring break trip to Orlando!

Isn't it so pretty!

I know you've all been waiting on a report on how my hair fared 

in hot and usually humid Florida!

Guess what -- it wasn't too humid when we were there!

What a shocker!

Stay tuned for a photo at the end of this post!

We haven't stayed at this resort before - 

Port Orleans Riverside. 

 It's a BIG resort.  

My great planning (and pure luck)

resulted in our getting a room not too far from the main 

buildings and food court, close to a quiet pool AND

close to a bus stop (very, very important) for rides

to the park and back again.

Horse drawn carriage rides!

Of course, my worries about my hair were mostly unfounded!

My hair was not perfect, it never is -- but it was

way better than I ever imagined it would be for Florida!

And you know - I'm always thinking about and/or worried about my hair.

Yes, I did wear a Minnie Mouse headband

I am a goofball, after all! :)

Look at how perfect my hair looks!!!

Catching Up ... A Little

Hello there -- Yay -- it's Wednesday -- my third favorite day of the work week,
just behind second place-Thursday and first place-Friday!
Oh my word, I've gotten way behind on blogging, haven't I.

I will be attempting to catch up a bit.

We had the Best. Time. Ever. on our spring break trip

to Walt Disney World!
The weather was perfect and so nice to 

have warm sunny skies while
winter continued into its 96th week in Nebraska!!

The only downer (do people still say "downer?") was that Mr. Tennis was unable to go with us.
He has not been feeling the best and that's putting it mildly.  OY!!
Truth be told - I was worried about leaving him at home!
Back in November, he was in the hospital for a Crohn's flareup and meds were changed,
which helped a teensy bit for a little while.
But, he was feeling quite poorly before a pre-surgery checkup, and it was discovered

he also has rheumatoid arthritis (another auto-immune disease)!

Right after we returned, he he had surgery and just starting some new meds to fight the
auto-immune issues.  He is doing better lately and we are so delighted
to see him feeling more like his usual self.
He's such a trooper and has been working at least half days or

more and finally able to get out and see his beloved horse -- not ride her -- 

but visit her and that has brightened his days!  Yay!

Love the castle!

But, let's put all that stress and worry behind us and
talk about Disney -- our favorite place!
The weather was absolutely heavenly!
Warm and sunny and not even humid!!
After such a long and dreadful winter - we were
definitely ready for sunshine and Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse!



Maddie and caught a flight to Orlando at 5:15 AM!
Oy!!  Why do I always think that the first flights are the best and we have
to be at the airport by 4 AM!!  Yikes!
But . . . the best thing about those early flights is an early arrival -- we were at our hotel
by 12:30 or 1 PM!
We visited Epcot and Magic Kingdom that day and planned our strategies for days to come.
Of course, we couldn't leave Magic Kingdom without a Mickey ice cream bar!
Stay tuned!
