OMG... family vacation from hell, pictures to prove it!
« on: October 21, 2008, 05:15:05 PM »
Actually, it was fun, ill-conceived as it were.  :uhsure: Some night when I've had a few, I will bore you with the details.

Looking old and weathered next to my beautiful daughter....



and next to my son (I totally don't care how old I look **Pfffbt** :tongue:)....



at sea world with the penguins, the kids had blue slushies prior to the picture.



Here is an action pic of Shamu right before he nailed us with a whale tail full of water...

It was beautiful down there in the low/mid 80s. Saltwater does horrible things to my hair and skin and I am kind of glad to be back home from that standpoint. It was humorous, there were Brits all around us. Now I am not really sure if they were faking the accent or not, peeps who travel  sometimes do that to sound more intelligent.  :uhsure:

In a Florida resort you'd be hard pressed not to run into Brits. It's the #1 long haul destination for us.  :-)

Many years ago I worked on a summer camp in upstate NY, and visited NY city, NJ and Boston while I was there, after that I went to see San Francisco for a couple of weeks. Other than that I had the rather grim experience of being a transit passenger at Miami airport. Unfortunately I haven't made it back again. :(

Thanks for sharing the pics.  I'm jealous that you got a vacation.  I'm hoping that soon I'll be able to leave my homestead for a few days, while I'm on break from school at the end of November.

Great pics.

I know you ain't fishin' or nuthin' (HA) -- but you know you have timeless beauty.  You kid is lucky to get your looks.

What? No warning to the dangers of posting such things?  :o :tongue:

Schade...how dare you go south when I'm not there too :hammer: JK

You look terrific...you really do and the kids are growing like weeds. I'm glad you got away and had a wonderful time(except for the salt water thing).  :-*

Schade is a lost cause.  I have come to expect pictures of her in the same way I expect the sun to rise ;)

My love for her (pure and chaste from afar) keeps her safe.

All the ladies in the world should wish and dream of looking as "old and weathered" as you do.

Tis simply stunning to hear you all had such a glorious adventure!  I had really hoped it would be a wonderful time for all of you; with good memories, a sense of serenity, and lots of family love.

BTW, you and your daughter have ravishingly gorgeous eyes!   :cheersmate:

Thanks Vonne, I was telling her that her eyes were gorgeous.  I am a mother who is most richly blessed.

We went to Cocoa and Clearwater. I would have liked to have had more beach days if you must know.  :hyper:

Oh wow on the re-up deal... for 5 of us to do Sea World and Bush Gardens it was $500 smackers. I guess I am a tight wad.  :-)
