First full day at the Magic Kingdom

Posted on June 1, 2009 10:22 am by TheAngelForever

Tuesday we were finally back on our way to the Magic Kingdom. The boys were ready for some fun with Mickey Mouse after spending a day at Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom. That morning I called to cancel our reservation for Tonga Toast at the Polynesian resort. We were not entirely sure when we would be able to get there without a taxi and thought it would be easiest just to get to the Magic Kingdom at our own pace. My parents went off on their own. My mother was told to take it slow today since she was watching an infection that had started on her toe.

We arrived at the Magic Kingdom just after it opened at 9:00. Before heading in we stopped and had a PhotoPass picture taken.

The boys were busy looking at everything else going on since it was quite busy. Check out what was on the ground as you walk into the park in the morning. A very easy and clever little touch.

We decided to walk down Main Street USA to the bakery for breakfast. We figured it would be perfect to use three snack credits and go. On the way we saw the trolley coming down the street with singers and dancers inside

1. Here come the dancers, 2. First thing in the morning, 3. Main Street USA show

After a yummy breakfast, we walked by the castle and over to Tomorrowland. While on the way we saw another photographer and grabbed our PhotoPass card for another picture. The sun was blinding us and thanks to that the boys were looking every other way.

After this we kept walking into Tomorrowland. We were shocked that there was NO line for Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin. We quickly left the stroller in the parking area and jumped into line. Without any trouble we went back on right away and did it again. Here are some photos from the first ride.

1. Ready to go, 2. Buzz greets guests, 3. A little distracted by things, 4. Not too sure about him, 5. One of the targets, 6. My hands were full with a toddler, 7. Concentrating on targets, 8. Zorg is captured, 9. Even Stitch plays

This ride was fun, but it is hard to get used to the laser guns that register points. Much more difficult to use than the technology with Toy Story Midway Mania at Hollywood Studios.

When we were exiting for the second time our eyes noticed that Buzz Lightyear was outside ~~signing~~ stamping autographs and taking photos. This was another great chance for us to ease the boys into the characters. Neither was thrilled with the idea, but they both went and no tears were shed.

From here we got right onto Walt Disney’s Caousel of Progress. In hindsight, we probably should have skipped this. Still it was sitting down and had air conditioning. The boys tolerated it and we were lucky. Next we saw that there was going to be a show at the Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor soon. We parked the stroller and hopped onto line for that. This is an interactive show. While on line there are instructions on how to text message jokes in for the show. Then they involve people in the show with parts. We all loved this attraction since it was hilarious and kept everyone engaged. Here are some photos from things.

1. Actually text message in jokes, 2. Got jokes?, 3. Snacks in Montropolis

After this we looked around at a few places and went to Mickey’s Toontown Fair. Whoa baby was it crazy here. There were tons of people packed into a small area. While NHL and JL went to get on line to go on The Barnstormer at Goofy’s Wiseacre Farm someone stopped by to say hello. Of all places to bump into someone from home. A mom from NHL’s school recognized me from PTA meetings and said hello. We found out that we were going to be on the same flight going home. Small world I tell you!

1. Other wise known as CRAZY land, 2. Goofy’s roller coaster, 3. Tired with Mouse ears, 4. Minnie’s House

The crowds in this area quickly scared us away. We left and went to look at a ride NHL had been nagging to go on. Unfortunately the line for Dumbo the Flying Elephant was insane. We told NHL that we would do this first thing in the morning on our next day at the Magic Kingdom. We decided to go over and see Mickey’s Philharmagic. This is another 3-D movie experience with a bunch of Disney characters involved. By this point JSL was not thrilled, but tolerated the movie and the rest of us enjoyed it. When we got out we met my parents to say hello. Then we went to Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Cafe for lunch. This was by far our worst meal at Disney World. JL ordered a Greek salad for lunch. When it was put on my tray I noticed there was ham on it. WHAT? I have never seen a Greek salad with meat, not less ham, and it certainly did not say anything about it (the Caesar salad specifically mentioned chicken). I was too tired to say anything and brought it to JL. In hindsight one of us should have brought it back to exchange for something else since we were not at fault. *sigh*

When we were finished with lunch we walked over to It’s a Small World We wanted to do something that JSL would appreciate while he was still awake. The line moved pretty quickly and the boys amused themselves while waiting.

Both of the boys LOVED this ride. They enjoyed the boat, the song and all of the things to see. Here are some views from It’s a Small World:

Of course, I still have fond memories from my childhood on It’s A Small World. I always loved the goodbyes in different languages at the end.

At this point we decided to move in another direction. We walked over toward The Haunted Mansion. NHL was intrigued by this. JL went off to do a diaper change and while NHL and I waited on line. By the time they came back we were very close to the door of the mansion. JSL was not a happy camper when we walked into the darkness. As soon as we went into the elevator he was spooked and to cope, he went to sleep. NHL thought the ride was neat and did not seem spooked by anything.

Since JSL was sleeping at this point we decided to walk over toward Splash Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain. Both rides that JSL could not go on. At this point in the day Splash Mountain had over an hour standby wait and the Fast Pass returns were for very late at night. Meanwhile we were shocked to see that there was hardly a wait for Big Thunder Mountain. JL went on with NHL and I received a Child Swap pass to go back on. Sleeping JSL and I went into a store nearby to stay cool. Then I noticed the big parade was about to begin. I had NHL and JL meet me over by the end of the route in Frontier Town. While JSL slept the rest of us watched Celebrations.

1. Chip, 2. Mickey and Minnie, 3. Pinocchio and Jimney , 4. Snow White, 5. Aladin, 6. Alice, 7. Cinderella’s step-family, 8. Cinderella’s mice, 9. Cinderella, 10. Ariel and Eric, 11. Donald Duck, 12. Goofy

When the parade ended the wind was really picking up. It looked like it was going to storm. NHL and I went back to Big Thunder Mountain with the Child Swap Fast Pass. They told us that we may not be able to ride, but to try. Thank goodness we were able to get on. Within 5 minutes we were off. When we found JL and JSL the little guy was up. We decided to head toward the front of the park since the sky was getting darker by the minute. On the way we stopped by to get a Fast Pass for

We figured if the weather was better we could head back to the Park after our dinner. So we managed to get to the Monorail just before it started to downpour. Of course silly us, we got on the Express Monorail. When we arrived at the transportation area we swapped to the ones that went to the resorts. My parents were already at the Contemporary, so we met up with them there. It was early for our reservations, so we shopped around some. Then we went down to where The Wave is located. They were not seating people yet, so we went to wait in the lobby. While there my mother mentioned that her toe was a lot worse. It was now oozing and throbbing. The infection was not going to clear without something stronger. Dad went to the desk at the Contemporary where they gave him the number for a pharmacy in Orlando that will deliver medications to the Disney Resorts for a $5 fee. Sweet!

We had a very nice dinner at The Wave. Our meals were very nice, the atmosphere more relaxed and the server was great with the kids. Of course this was also the night that I had my allergic reaction to walnuts that was in my dessert. When we were done with our meal we went back to the hotel since it was still raining. Mom needed to look at her foot and call the doctor, and I had to figure out something to do with my breathing.

The boys were still awake and played on the bed while I helped my mother. NHL and JSL were content with the Aqua Doodle Travel and an activity book.

Meanwhile, JL asked me how to get our cell phones to work. I told him the signal was tough and he may have to stand on his head while on the bed. Seriously it was pretty hard at times. This was his response:

Luckily he was able to get a signal and call his sister. He had to get a hold of her to find out when her surgery was scheduled for the next day. When that was done NHL and I went for a walk to meet Nana and Papa. They were trying to schedule the pharmacy delivery at the main desk. After that we went back to the room for showers and the boys went to sleep. We all fell asleep quickly and were anticipating a fun day at EPCOT on Wednesday.

Feeling the burn from EA Sports Active

Posted on May 31, 2009 3:45 pm by TheAngelForever

Last night JL and I finally took the plunge. My breathing was good enough from the new medicine, so we broke out the EA Sports Active for our Nintendo Wii. Both of us were quite intrigued since we have not heard a bad review for it yet. Before we left for Disney World we pre-ordered it and were surprised to find it had arrived at our house before the scheduled release date.

I was the one that "plugged" in, while JL worked out along side me. The workout for beginners was about 25 minutes long. It encorporated walking, running, toning along with the dreaded lunges and squats. What I really liked was that the "trainer" was personable and did not loop the same phrases like the WiiFit does. That looping of compliments and motivational phrases drove me bonkers with the WiiFit and quickly made me stop using it. The leg pouch fit nicely around my thigh and really seemed to register my movements with the Wii.

Half way through the work out I really was feeling my muscles burning. Of course, leave it to JL to mention that I also had sweat pouring down my back and face. Lovely, but I knew I was really getting a good workout. During the time it registered that I burned 153 calories and kept track on my journal for the goals. All I had to do was follow the easy instructions before each exercise and figure our where to wear/hold the WiiMote and nunchuk.

JL and I were so impressed that we went out to get another EA Sports Active accessory kit. This way we can both workout together while keeping track of things on the Wii. Of course, when we went out I was still feeling the burn. Walking and especially climbing strairs is tough today. The muscles in my upper thighs are feeling the pain today. Of course, I love this since I know it is a good type of burn from using the muscles and working them out. I would often feel this when I use the third mile of Leslie Sansone’s 5 Day Slim Down mile three that concentrated on legs with squats and lunges.

Another neat feature with the program is you can participate in the 30 day challenge. The first challenge just ended and a lot of the people did amazing. One participant included Alison Sweeney, the host of The Biggest Loser. She used the program to get back into shape after having her second child. Starting tomorrow there is a new June challenge. JL and I may try this since it looks like a great option. Of course, I still plan on wearing my pedometer and power walking with Leslie Sansone.

Happy exercing all!

Our day at Disney’s Animal Kingdom & Boma

Posted on May 24, 2009 3:07 pm by TheAngelForever

Monday morning, we decided to wake up on the early side to get a quick breakfast using snack credit at Pop Century before heading to use the Extra Magic Hours at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. We arrived at the park just after the major rush when it opened at 8:00. The place was pretty empty.

1. About to start the day, 2. Ready for the day at Animal Kingdom

Once we were passed security and the gates, they greeted kids with animal educators that had containers with animals. NHL, JSL and I looked at a neat looking spider. After that we wandered over to where Nana and Papa were. Here is what they were looking at:

Apparently, my mother does not look at enough poop in the micro-lab at work …she wanted some on her vacation too! Once we were done with that we wandered into the park. We stopped briefly to have one of the PhotoPass pictures taken. JL and I even stopped to have one of just the two of us. Fitting since we were wearing our matching Animal Kingdom t-shirts from our honeymoon there eight yeas ago.

It was at about that time that my parents, NHL and JSL were able to catch their first glimpses of the amazing Tree of Life that sits in the middle of the park. It truly is like nothing else you will see in your life.

Here is a closer view of the spectacular animals that are carved into this centerpice:

From here, we wandered our way through Asia and Africa to the Safari ride. We figured it would be great for everyone to do this together. Plus in the morning, the animals would be more active, feeding and not laying around from the extreme heat. The animals did not disappoint and we saw most of the. Of course, we are partial to a certain one that spent a lot of time near our group. Many of the giraffes were out and two of them kept blocking the road and were even following our vehicle. Here are some photos from our adventure.

1. Here comes our ride, 2. All of the animals to see, 3. A rhino, 4. Hippo time, 5. Danger under the bridge, 6. Watching everthing closely, 7. Giraffes by the road, 8. Little guy holding on tight, 9. Hello friends, 10. Amazing view of giraffe back, 11. Giraffe going to some other friends, 12. Close encounter of the giraffe kind, 13. Mama elephant, 14. Look what we spotted, 15. Blocking the road, 16. The lion king stood up for a minute

When we were done with the ride, we stopped to take a picture of our fun Safari driver. Here he is:

Of course, JSL wanted to go back in the car car for another ride to see more animals. Also note, he was obsessed with holding onto a park map each and every day. As you will see, his little hands have one in this photo.

When we were done with this, NHL really wanted to head toward Expedition Everest. We figured it was a good idea. We would walk over, get a Fast Pass for Papa, NHL and I and then go back later. We were floored when we walked up and the standby line was 15 minutes. Thanks to that we hopped right onto the line. The information about the Yeti and expedition teams that you can look at while on line are amazing. When it was time for the ride, NHL sat next to me and Papa rode in front of us. All I can say is it was a WILD ride. It was like no other coaster I have been on. Thanks to the darkness you never see what is happening as it moves you forward, then back and forward again.

1. Expedition Everest from a distance, 2. NHL insisted on riding this early, 3. Check out Papa’s expression, 4. The peaceful looking mountain

From here, we went to get a Fast Pass at Dinosaur. Once again, there was little line. I grabbed a child swap pass since JSL was too small to ride. Nana, Papa, JL and NHL went on. JSL was getting really tired. We walked around while waiting for everyone to come back. In fact, once he was asleep I went to get on the line for the Finding Nemo stage show. I waited there for the rest of the group to catch up. Here are some photos from Dinosaur. As you will see NHL was not a fan, so I did not get to go back on it. No big loss to me since I was not in love with it when I went on eight years ago.

1. Time to see the dinosaurs, 2. Heading off to a not little kid ride, 3. The inside of Dinosaur, 4. The Dinosaur ride photo

Finally the rest of the crew met up with me at the Finding Nemo theater. This is a TOUGH show to get into. They actually have guaranteed seating for people that make reservations at certain times at restaurants in the park. We quickly got seats and JSL stayed asleep the entire time. We had heard that this show was amazing and like a Broadway production. It was that and more. NHL sat there mesmerized and could not take his eyes off of the actors and puppets. The colors, scenes, music, singing, dancing and everything were amazing. We were all surprised to see that it was a forty minute show. Here are some highlights.

1. Nemo and Marlin, 2. Time for fish school, 3. Bruce and the sharks arrive, 4. Fish tank friends, 5. The biggest puppet, 6. They make a plan for Nemo, 7. Dory and Marlin meet new friends, 8. Crush and Marlin, 9. Lots of turtle dudes

Once the show was over we wandered back toward the front of the park to the Pizzafari to have lunch. This was a great big air conditioned restuarant where we could use our quick service credits. Everyone was hungry and gobbled up pizza, salads and more. Even JSL woke up and had some pizza. After eating, we decided to split up and wander around without my parents. Of course, this did not last long when we saw the It’s Tough to Be a Bug show was starting soon. I called them on their cell phone and they met up with us by the Tree of Life. Needless to say right before they were going to let us into the theater for the 3D movie, NHL decided that he had to go potty. Thank goodness Papa was not thrilled about seeing this show and volunteered to take NHL. It was a good thing NHL left when he did since the show may have scared him. JL, Nana and I enjoyed it and, well, the little guy tolerated it. Here are photos before NHL left of him withe his Bug Eyes on.

1. Bug glasses ready to go, 2. Time for another show, 3. Can you tell he had something else on his mind

My mother mentioned to me that my father was itching to buy something at the store. She guessed that Papa had probably taken NHL and bought him something. Here is what we found when we were done being bugs:

Mom was right, so next we went back to the stores to look for a new safari hat for JSL. We eventually found a cute one with Mickey and Minnie on it. At that point we split up again and said we would meet before heading to Boma for dinner. None of us thought we would be able to make the Festival of the Lion King. We thought it would be a nice time to try to get some character photos with the boys. We went toward Camp Mickey and Minnie. When we got inside we saw that they were about to start the Lion King show and were still taking people inside. We jumped at the opportunity. JL and I had not seen this on our honeymoon and were upset since everyone raved about it. The show truly was a spectacle. It made you feel like part of a tribal celebration. The costumes, colors and dancing took you into the Lion King. Here are some photos from the show that both of the boys loved.

1. Pumba was even there, 2. Timon walked around saying hello, 3. Stilt walkers in costume, 4. Animals in costume, 5. Monkey time, 6. Clapping he was so happy, 7. Loved watching the show, 8. Dancing with the kids, 9. Festival of the Lion King

Once again NHL refused to have photos taken with Mickey and company. On the way back to Dinoland I spotted someone that I thought just may work. Waiting with almost no line was Pocohontas. I figured she was a great person to start with and work our way up. Please note the looks of confusion on the faces of the boys who had no clue who she was.

Just around the corner from here I spotted Lilo and Stich. There was also a PhotoPass photographer there. The boys allowed us to take a photo with JL and me in it. So here is our family portrait.

From here we went to Dinoland and the boys were excited to go on the Flying Triceratops. There was no line and we were able to go on them twice before we had to head off to meet Nana and Papa. FYI – the flying dinos are basically a new and improved version of Dumbo the Flying Elephant ride that is in the Magic Kingdom.

Had we had a few more minutes I would have loved to ride on this, but NHL was not tall enough so I passed.

When we made our way back to the main area to meet my parents, the parade was just ending. Of course, that is where we happened to bump into Nana and Papa. So we waved goodbye to Mickey and went to get a bus to the Animal Kingdom Lodge.

As we were waiting on line for a bus, we heard someone calling my parents. Sure enough, we saw my brother’s friend, his wife and their little girl. They were also in Disney for the week and were heading to Boma for dinner as well. It still amazes me that in a place so large we bumped into someone we know. When we arrived at the Animal Kingdom Lodge we checked in and looked around the lobby. There were actually two PhotoPass photographers. We took the opportunity for a group picture before we went to dinner.

Our beeper was going off before we knew it, so we wandered down to Boma for our meal. We had heard that this was an amazing array of African inspired food and was vegetarian friendly for JL. The buffet was amazing and each of us quickly found items that we adored. If I have to pick my favorite meal of the trip this would probably be right up there. We will definitely be going back to Boma when we go to Disney World again. Another item that impressed me was our server noted that we were there celebrating JSL’s birthday. Without us saying anything she brought him a cupcake and sang to him. Very classy (please note this for when I review JSL’s actual B-day dinner).

After our meal, we wandered to the gift store at that resort. We bought a Disney Princess post card to send to my niece and got each of the boys a Disney safari character. NHL picked out Goofy and JSL selected Pluto. From here, we took a bus to the Magic Kingdom and transferred back to Pop Century.

JSL quickly fell asleep on the bus. When we got back to our room, NHL was still ready to go. We decided to let him go swimming with JL. Papa stayed back in the room with JSL to watch television in the AC. Nana went with me to wander. The boys were in the 80’s computer pool right by our room. Nana told them about the Goofy Spray area and Hippy Dippy Pool (better photos from the day coming soon). Thanks to that, we all went to explore the resort more in the "cooler" evening temperatures.

We were eventually able to pull NHL away from swimming and head back to the room. When we got back JSL was starting to stir. When we took off his sandals, we noticed blisters on his little feet. We put band-aids on them, showered everyone and went to bed.

Up next, our first full day at the Magic Kingdom and dinner at The Wave.

Mother’s Day at Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Posted on May 21, 2009 1:02 pm by TheAngelForever

Everyone was very tired after our dinner at Chef Mickey. We decided to call it an early night and head back to Pop Century. Our luggage had arrived in the room and we got the boys settled into bed. They faded quickly.

The next morning was Mother’s Day. We had planned to go to Disney Hollywood Studios. My parents went to use some snack credit on our dining plan for their breakfast. The boys and I took extra time putting sun lotion on. We opted to take some oatmeal bars for a breakfast on the move. As you can see…the lines were sparce when we arrived for the buses.

We arrived at Disney Hollywood studios an hour before the park opened. This gave us time to make a plan for when the park opened. JL was going to take all of our tickets to walk quickly to Toy Story Mania. We would make our way there to the line for a ride. It was neat seeing the park so quite before everyone was there.

They finally opened the main gate for everyone to see the spiel that they do at the opening of the day. JL made his way to the front. When the director said action, he was off to Toy Story Mania. Mom, Dad, the boys and I quickly found our way to the Pixar area. JL already had our Fast pass tickets to return, so we opted to go onto the standby line. Within 5 minutes we were on the ride. The people that designed this attraction did an amazing job taking you inside the life of the toys. You are immediately transformed into a world from Toy Story.

About the photos from top left-right and bottom left-right. 1. The entrance of Toy Story Mania, 2. Giant Candyland, 3. Monkey along the way, 4. Toy Story Mania, 5. Fabulous game/ride – Toy Story Mania, 6. Happy to try Toy Story Mania, 7. Ready to ride and play the game, 8. Nana and Papa ready to go

After riding Toy Story Mania the first time we decided to wander to the Muppets area. This took us along the back lot. Mom took a photo of the four of us and then some kind people took the only photo that we had of our entire group.

Just around the corner from NYC, we found ourselves surrounded by familiar Muppet friends. We wandered around and then went to see the show.

1. Time for the Muppets, 2. Ready for the show, 3. Glasses a bit too large, 4. Outside Muppet Vision 3D

Upon stepping out of the Muppet theater, we quickly saw that they were opening up the area to meet Lightning McQueen and Mater from the movie Cars. We waited for the photo opportunity. NHL and JSL were not too sure. We actually had to switch sides since Mater’s loud noises were really bothering the little guy.

After we said goodbye to Lightning and Mater, we went back to Toy Story Mania to ride with our Fast Pass. When the ride was over we parted ways with Nana and Papa. They went to explore the park and get a Fast Pass for Dad and I to go on the Rockin Roller Coaster. The boys and I opted to try out the Playhouse Disney Show. This was a cute show. The only negative in my mind, as an adult, is sitting on the floor scrunched next to a ton of people. It was well worth the sleepy legs since both of the boys loved seeing familiar faces.

By the time the show was over it was already time to use our Fast Pass for the Rockin’ Roller Coaster. Dad and I went on line and the boys and Nana went to get fast pass for the Tower of Terror and look for a place to have lunch. Fifteen minutes later we were off the coaster. It was absolutely amazing! It was the first time I kept my eyes open and enjoyed a coaster. It was fast, smooth, and the light show made it even more fabulous. It took us a while to get a hold of the rest of the gang. They had found a restaurant that was inside and had a decent menu. We walked over and had lunch while JSL slept.

While walking away from the restaurant after lunch something happened. I suddenly felt my glasses shift and was queasy. Sure enough the nose pad on my glasses was gone. There was no hope in finding it. This was not a good start to the vacation since I had no clue where or how to get them fixed. Papa, JL and NHL went off to the Tower of Terror. JL refused to do this on our honeymoon, but this time did not want to be out done by his five year old son.

1. The ride that NHL wanted to go on, 2. Before Tower of Terror, 3. What goes up . . .

Meanwhile my mother and I wandered with sleeping JSL to get a spot to watch the Beauty and the Beast show. This show had major memories from the last visit I had with my family. I was able to get an apple for JSL to have while waiting for the show. When the boys arrived we went to our seats and enjoyed the beautiful show. As you can imagine the boys were mesmerized and barely moved during the performance.

After the show Dad and I decided to go back on Rockin’ Roller coaster since the line was very short. This time the boys and Nana waited in the Aerosmith store for us to come out. Lucky me, since it meant that JL was able to capture the photo from our ride.

At this point there was not a lot of time before our dinner reservations at the 50’s Prime Time Cafe. We decided to walk over to the Voyage of the Little Mermaid to enjoy the show sitting in a nice air conditioned theater.

Finally it was close to dinner time. We all walked toward the restaurant. NHL stopped to see some topiaries and JSL enjoyed walking with Papa.

Our meal at the Prime Time Cafe was very good. We were on the dining plan, so each of us was able to get a beverage to start. JL, Mom and I all had Berry Smoothies, Dad had a Diet Coke Float and NHL wanted milk. The boys shared NHL’s macarroni and cheese, JL had a Tuna meal and the rest of us had an amazing salmon dish. The antics of the server are well worth the visit. We also had yummy desserts with our meals before heading out of Disney Hollywood Studios.

1. Boys trying to be sweet, 2. Back to before I was here, 3. Mother’s Day dinner, 4. Our wacky server

Rather than go right back to Pop Century we followed my parents to Downtown Disney for a little while. NHL was curious to see the monster World of Disney store and we were all curious about Goofy Candy Co.

1. The boys outside the Winnie the Pooh Store, 2. Stitch spits at you as you enter, 3. Mirror fun time, 4. Never did buy anything here

Quickly we realized it was time to go. We had been away from our room for over 12 hours and we were all getting cranky. By the time we got to our resort the boys were ready to recline in their stroller.

Then we walked back to our room in the 80’s area of Pop Century with the glow of the Rubics Cubes lighting our way.

As expected the little guy was fast asleep by the time we made it to our room.

All four of us quickly fell asleep as we caught some Z’s before our big day at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

A photo tale of Chef Mickey

Posted on May 20, 2009 12:00 am by TheAngelForever

My mostly wordless photo tale of our first dinner in Disney World at Chef Mickey. If you want a little information, feel free to hover over the photos for the brief captions.
