What an awesome weekend!  We arrived on Friday, the 7th, which was also my birthday.   We checked into Wilderness Lodge then headed over to Epcot.  Spent the day there. 

Highlights:

 

1. Daughter drinking Beverly (and finally not liking it).  Up to this point, she loved that nasty drink.  However, this time, she took a huge swig and shivered for about 10 minutes after.  Even after we left Station Cool, and took our pictures with Pluto, she was still making faces.
2.  Seeing the Crush exhibit.  Very cool!  He totally speaks to the audience.  We were able to ask him questions and he was able to ask us questions.  He was totally complementing some audience members on their choice of Lids and Shells (hats and shirts).  Very funny.
3.  Watching my dad fly around the park in an electric scooter.  He was injured in the last hurricane and is still recovering.  He only ran my foot over twice (two days before the marathon!).
4.  Riding SE all by myself and having all the CM's wish me a happy birthday.
5.  Finally, eating at San Angel Inn.  It was wonderful.  Our hostess, Nancy, was very nice.  We sat right by the water and spoke to several people in the boats going by. 

On the 8th, we headed over to MK early for the Princess Breakfast, at the castle.  The food was, WOW!  Definitely worth the money!  My daughter, I mean, Snow White, had a blast meeting all the other princes. 

After breakfast, we hit a few rides and Philharmagic then split up for the rest of the day.  I went to HM first, then headed over to the Expo, to pick up my number.  I got a fast pass for SGE, but missed the time by 10 minutes.  It took FOREVER, to get from the MK to the WWOS. for the Expo.  I had to take the monorail to the TTC, then I had to wait 20 minutes for a bus to MGM,  and from there I had to take another bus to the Wide World of Sports.  After the Expo, we headed back to Wilderness Lodge for a big pasta dinner then off to bed.  I had to get up at 3 am to be at the starting line by 4.   It was all worth it.  This was one of the best weekends of my life.  I had a blast with my family, a great birthday, a wonderful run, and ate some goooood food. 

 

Below are just some random pictures from the run.  I am the one on the right.  :)  I am wearing my lucky Mickey hat.
