Another week of vacation ought to be enough to recover &#038; to get the Disney music out of my head.  Actually, we had a great time.  It&#8217;s just that about 12 hours on your feet every day tends to take something out of you.<br \/>\nMom and Dad were with us which was great.  I told several folks that we were going with my parents and some responded with how they could never do that, their families would drive them nuts.  While we have our moments (all of us), we&#8217;re blessed that spending a week with them is a joy rather than a drag.<br \/>\nFor now, I&#8217;m catching up on my blog reading.  The Disney resort we stayed in had no free internet.  They advertised &#8216;wireless internet&#8217; but failed to mention that it was only available in the business center, what seemed like 1\/4 mile away (<a href=\"http:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps?q=Lake+Buena+Vista,+FL&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;z=16&#038;ll=28.363148,-81.573556&#038;spn=0.012991,0.030534&#038;t=h&#038;om=1\">This is our resort<\/a>.  Everything inside Coronado Circle.).  I had also assumed that it would be free, especially given the $130 or so per night rate.  Nope.  Ten bucks a day to use the wired network in the room, don&#8217;t know if the wireless was more or less, I didn&#8217;t walk with my laptop down to the business center.  I guess that&#8217;s the Disney way, find more ways to separate you from your money.<br \/>\nThat was one of several minor disappointments with the resort itself, but mostly Disney did not disappoint.  Everything they do is excellent, they know no other way.  No trash in the park, but rarely do you see the clean up crew.  The sound quality of the outdoor shows was fantastic, even hundreds of yards away.  Every person dressed as a character is <em>always<\/em> in character.  I watched one woman playing Ariel from The Little Mermaid talk with other Disney &#8216;cast members&#8217; with no other guests nearby, completely in character.<br \/>\nWe took nearly 1,100 pictures, maybe I&#8217;ll put some up in the gallery later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;re back from Disney World.
