Upside Ann

Kevin and I debated until about 10 PM the night before about going to LegoLand.  We had had a pretty negative experience at Disney the summer before - hot, crowded, and an unimpressed child.  Obviously, we took a chance - and it was a great decision!  Virtually no crowd (on a weekday in October!), beautifully comfortable, and a very, very engaged child.  Here Zupe is greeting Emmet - followed soon, thereafter, by dancing with and hugging Emmet.  Lloyd was also there!  And, Zupe had his first taste of a roller coaster and he loved it.    

 Zupe, Kevin, and I spent a week in Florida in October.  I had enrolled Zupe in a therapy program last summer but had to cancel after my mother was injured.  It worked out that we could participate in October.  And, while I didn't see any shifts after the program, I must say that Florida in October had to be a much better option than Florida in July!  We flew into Orlando and enjoyed a stay in a resort with a great pool for a night before driving the next day to the West coast to Crystal River.  No drive across Florida is complete without a stop at a gas station advertising free orange juice and baby alligators.
