The Scooter Strikes Back-A F&W 2017 TR- Bonus Features, Link to new TR 3/22

Interesting combination.

Seriously? You have not heard of this before? Its a classic St Paddy's day American feast. Check out my facebook page!

Very nice! I'm sure your mom will enjoy that!

I hope so!

Let me know what you think. Simple, but.... I really liked it. :)

Which shocked the heck out of me!

I will but it will be a little while. I have my meals already figured out through next Wed or Thurs.

What??? Really!

Huh! Had no idea.

Yeah I didn't know until i read this recipe, but the internet does confirm it. Americans added the noodles.

Might have to try that too. :)

Its one of my favorites, but we use Rib Eye. Often its what i do with leftover Prime Rib.

I saw that! The post above yours (on my feed) was from another DISer who did the exact same thing.
Never heard of it before.

I will but it will be a little while. I have my meals already figured out through next Wed or Thurs.

Only that far? I've seen your meal calendar in the past. ;)

Yeah I didn't know until i read this recipe, but the internet does confirm it. Americans added the noodles.

You crazy kids. Gotta add noodles to everything!


And.... I'm okay with that.

Its one of my favorites, but we use Rib Eye. Often its what i do with leftover Prime Rib.

I'll keep it in mind. :)
 
I barely remember it, but i know that i did ride it. If they didn't get rid of the subs, they might have been able to bring it back, but when they did Nemo here Tony Baxter said thatbit woukd just be too costy for WDW to bring it back.

That’s what I heard as well.


She is better. But still coughing a lot. And very tired.

I have heard people can have the cough upwards of 5-6 weeks.




Karin mentioned something about Monday at DHS and TSL FP. I'm not interested in the parks for Sunday. We're having 9:30 breakfast at Olivias. I don't know when we'll do the potluck, but I'd rather do it kind of early meaning 4-5 PM not 7-8 PM.

4-5 sounds like a good plan. That way we have plenty of time to relax and talk and just enjoy.



If you give me enough notice, I can make sure to save enough points. I am even banking some of my points this year.

I will plan :)


Yeah, we get in around 6PM. I'm thinking of having dinner in one of the lounges of a monorail resort.

Excellent! I will have to get Fran some diet dew that evening as well.
 
I have heard people can have the cough upwards of 5-6 weeks.

Alison - I am a witness to that. Tell Fran that she NEEDS to take it slow, really slow. This cough is not something to play with. Mine is nearly gone - but now Tom has caught it and it is NASTY!!!

4-5 sounds like a good plan. That way we have plenty of time to relax and talk and just enjoy.

Yes, would work perfectly with the 9.30 breakfast. Are you joining us, Pamela - YEAH! excited!!!!!!!!

Excellent! I will have to get Fran some diet dew that evening as well.

Alison - let me know what else you need - we will be shopping anyway (maybe even together with you Pamela!)
 


You made it here just in time for the last update. But no fear! I'll have plenty of bonus features from trips to Disneyland until I start my next TR in September!
I've always had the opposite of impeccable timing :laughing: I'm heading back to the beginning to catch up, but I'll sure be looking forward to your DL bonus features :thumbsup2 And I'll have my act together in time for your September TR ;)
 
I saw that! The post above yours (on my feed) was from another DISer who did the exact same thing.
Never heard of it before.

Must be someone I'm not friends with as mine was the only one I saw in my feed. It's also called New England Boiled Dinner. You make it all in one pot. I have a very specific pot which can be used for many things, but I mostly use it for corned beef. It has a strainer basket inside the pot so you can easily remove the corned beef and root vegetables (which go in for the last 30 minutes). On top there is a steamer basket where I put the onions and cabbage for the last 10 minutes.

Only that far? I've seen your meal calendar in the past. ;)

I was wrong, I had it planned until the 28th until this morning when I realized that was the day my parents arrive. I don't think they would want to eat John Wayne Casserole and Sausages, so Mom and I need to have a discussion.

You crazy kids. Gotta add noodles to everything!


And.... I'm okay with that.

Generally I am too. Although cutting down on pasta has allowed me to lose some weight!

I'll keep it in mind. :)

Let me know if you end up trying it.

I have heard people can have the cough upwards of 5-6 weeks.

That's how it generally goes for her with any cold.

4-5 sounds like a good plan. That way we have plenty of time to relax and talk and just enjoy.

That's what I was thinking. More time to eat leisurely and spread it out. I think we might have a lot of food!

I will plan :)

Cool! It's so fun to stay out there when I have friends who are also staying!

Excellent! I will have to get Fran some diet dew that evening as well.

Do you arrive Thursday too? You need to send me pictures of the white wines that are at your Costco!

Alison - I am a witness to that. Tell Fran that she NEEDS to take it slow, really slow. This cough is not something to play with. Mine is nearly gone - but now Tom has caught it and it is NASTY!!!

She doesn't have the flu, hers was all upper respiratory, but it still was knocking her out.

Yes, would work perfectly with the 9.30 breakfast. Are you joining us, Pamela - YEAH! excited!!!!!!!!

I'm thinking we'll be pretty full from breakfast, so we won't need any lunch, but by mid afternoon we'll be ready to start snacking. I'm making all main dishes (or one could be called a side) and they all feature a Southwest flair, but not spicy.

Alison - let me know what else you need - we will be shopping anyway (maybe even together with you Pamela!)

I would like to go shopping with you either Saturday after the Cruise or Sunday after breakfast. I should start my shopping list so I don't forget anything!

I've always had the opposite of impeccable timing :laughing: I'm heading back to the beginning to catch up, but I'll sure be looking forward to your DL bonus features :thumbsup2 And I'll have my act together in time for your September TR ;)

Sorry I dropped the ball on the Chapter Links! But there is an update just about every other page.
 
Well it certainly has been an exciting week! Monday I woke up to find my computer was pretty much hosed. Literally. It was a laptop and I opened it up to find a wet spot on the screen right over the numeric keypad. Then I dabbed off the keypad, but the damage had already been done. Fran, being the generous person that she is, let me have a laptop that she bought almost six months ago, but never got around to setting it up and transferring her files over.

I spent all day Monday retrieving files from Carbonite (while it was performing a complete system restore in the background. I started the restore process Monday, probably before noon, and as I type this Saturday, it’s only 30% complete. I’m finally back to basically normal as far as a working computer goes, but there were a few days in there where I was afraid about my files. I now have complete faith in Carbonite and believe that my subscription is worth every penny!

A few weeks back, Fran caught an awful upper respiratory thing that she is starting to slowly recover from. The kittens are also starting to heal as well. Three of the five have been altered, O’Malley and Amelia are the only ones left to undergo the knife, but they need the all clear from the doctors.

I have a meeting on Monday to take an application on the vacant apartment and I believe that this person will not flake out on me, like others have. I hope that the applicant qualifies and we can be done with this one for a while!

I am also placing this one on the market this weekend. I still have to modify the flyer after I measure the square footage of the place, but hopefully it will get snatched up quickly. It’s in a very desirable neighborhood and location.

q18IRL1st02.jpg


My parents will be here in 10 days, and the house is still a disaster! While they’re here, we will go see the King Tut Exhibition, and attend a Disney Family of Wines Dinner (part of the Food & Wine Festival).

I have two weekends out at the Grand Californian next month. One with several of you who are reading along here (well maybe not quite the weekend part). And another with Jenny & Jill in honor of my upcoming birthday! :banana:

We are still not out of the old place, but we’re getting closer. Every time I go over there, I remove something from the apartment. Regardless of how small, if I keep doing that eventually the stuff will go away.

OK so back to the Trip Report, this will be the final installment and then we’ll be on to bonus features!



Day 9


I woke up at 4:30 but knew I wasn't ready to get up. I picked up my phone to see what was going on with the DIS, when I realized the DIS is asleep at 4AM Eastern time, I rolled back over and fell back asleep. It was closer to 7AM when I woke up again and this time I futzed around on my phone while I prodded Fran to get up. There was an envelope hanging on the door with my boarding passes and some stickers that looked like luggage tags. This was new to me, and I wasn't quite sure what to make of it. Especially since there was nothing for Fran.

We got dressed and ate breakfast. I think she had the last of her yogurt and I had a bowl of cereal. Sad, my cute little Tigger mugs is back in the Owner's Locker and I have to drink out of the bland DVC mugs.

z17FW1102DS01.jpg


We finished off the V8, and all the milk. The only thing left in our villa was some half full (if that) bottles of Diet Mtn Dew, and half a stick of butter. I gave the rest of my Honey Nut Cheerios, English Muffins, bread and Texas Toast to the Bellmen. The guy who took our bags was really happy about that!

Checking our bags was a snap, I have no idea what happened with the scooter. It was still in the room when we left.

I wanted to do something before we got on the DME, even if it was just grabbing lunch at Disney Springs. We decided to take the bus. We probably could have rode over there, but I didn't trust the battery on the rental scooter.

Our first stop was Blaze Pizza. It's been highly recommended by two of my readers here.

You pick your crust, pick your sauce, then meats, and any veggies.

z17FW1102DS02.jpg


z17FW1102DS03.jpg


z17FW1102DS04.jpg


You can also have them finish it with stuff like balsamic vinegar, arugula, pesto, olive oil, etc. It wasn’t very busy when we got there, then again I think it was just after 11AM.

z17FW1102DS05.jpg


I went with pepperoni, bacon, mushrooms, onions, and bell peppers on Fran's half.

z17FW1102DS06.jpg


The concept of this place is that they “fast-fire” cook your pizza. The ovens are around 600-800°F and sometimes they can be as hot as 900°. It was good, but we both agreed that the short cooking time left the vegetables quite raw. We each ate two of our three pieces and took the the other two pieces to go.

Then we went over to the Co-op. There was a Christmas dress that was released at DL at the fancy dress store just before we left and we didn't have the chance to get over and buy me one. They had it on display in the front window of the dress store, but they didn't have any in stock. Bizarre!

z17FW1102DS08.jpg


I saw another dress I really liked, almost an adult Cinderella dress, but I didn't like it $200 enough. Plus I don't have anyplace to wear it, no fancy Palace Balls that I will be attending. However I have been eyeing this dress for a few months now, and finally bit the bullet and got it. I still have not had the occasion to wear it. But I think it will be coming out next month when we have a certain little Fondue gathering! :rolleyes1

z17FW1102DS07.jpg


This time we decided just to motor back to the resort, we figured the rental scooter would either have enough battery power or she could tow me back to the lobby. Either way we would be getting rid of the scooter in an hour and it would be the rental company’s problem and not ours! We made it back just fine and had some extra time to stop in the quick service to buy some cookies and a cinnamon roll for Fran.

z17FW1102DS09.jpg


z17FW1102DS10.jpg


Ever since the first morning when we picked up her scooter at the bell services desk and I got a cup of coffee at the QS in the lobby, I had been eyeing this strawberry shortcake.

z17FW1102DS11.jpg


I ate another slice of pizza and then finished off with strawberry shortcake.

It was getting to the time to return the scooter, or so we thought. I had said 1PM since our DME was going to be around 1:15. Fran had turned her phone off because our batteries kept draining so quickly and when she turned it back on there was a voice mail that the guys had come to pick it up at noon. That was crap because I never would have agreed to that in fact I didn't really even like 12:45. I wanted as long as I could get before we had to get on that dang bus and once we returned the scooter, we couldn't do much but sit around the lobby. I called the guy back and he told us to park it with the other scooters and leave the key in the basket. So we did that and went inside to plug in for a bit.

After both of us used the facilities we unplugged and went outside to wait. The bus was right on time and we had an uneventful trip to the airport. We had to go to check in because Fran didn't have a boarding pass, so luckily there was no line and the agent reprinted my boarding passes as she could tell I was somewhat wary of the one Disney had given me.

For the entire trip home Fran was grumpy. Not sure if it was from events of the day or that she just didn't want to go home. I got us beverages to drink on the plane and finished off the last of the pizza before we boarded. The flight had 5 empty seats and we were hopeful that we might get our money back for the third seat.

When we landed in Denver, our gate was nearby and once the guy with the wheelchair pushed her to the gate, she have him a tip and we found a place to plug in our phones and tablets.

The plane was going to be boarding in 20 minutes and with each of us needing to use the facilities that didn't give us any time to wait in line for food. I was starving and once Fran returned back to the gate, I noticed that the plane was delayed at least 10 minutes, so now it was still 20 minutes until preboarding began. Just a few gates away was a yummy sandwich shop where we had eaten back in August on our visit so I hustled over there and ordered a Mile High Club. Now the variation on that phrase did not even occur to me until I was texting Jenny and Jill before take off. It was Roast Beef, bacon, tomatoes, marinated red onion, and mayo on a ciabatta roll. It was a very yummy sandwich and we ate them while all the other passengers were boarding. This time it was a completely full flight and we were so happy to have that little boarding pass that said “seat reserved” so we didn't have to be squished into our seats.

We arrived at LAX safely and with no complications, and our luggage was still on the conveyor when we made it down to baggage claim, and not cordened off to the side in some sort of "abandoned luggage" area like it is on American. The trip home was uneventful, and Naked Jim was still at the house when we arrived at about 11:30PM, so he helped us bring in the luggage and made sure we found all the kitties.

And there you have it, another interesting trip in the books!
 


An uneventful day home! Glad it was easy and your scooter drama was officially over! And you get to return before you thought you would be able to!

Your rental ad has reminded me why I shouldn’t look for jobs in California although I’m sure you would be an easy landlord ;) Your rent is double my mortgage!

Glad the kitties are healing and the others are fixed up.

Yeah, I truly hope we're done with scooter drama!

Your rental ad has reminded me why I shouldn’t look for jobs in California although I’m sure you would be an easy landlord ;) Your rent is double my mortgage!

Yeah, but are you a block from the beach? I have one about 8 blocks in that's only 2/3 the price!

Glad the kitties are healing and the others are fixed up.

I've had enough of vet bills, so I hope we're done with that!
 
Mile High Club. :lmao:

Sounds like another trip for the books. Great read as always.

Sooooo excited for your bday weekend! :woohoo: We always seem to have a total blast!

I like Blaze Pizza. I have them cook mine a few extra minutes, just a few to soften up the onions. The first time I tried it was in Utah. I think have them here as well. #WeLiveHereNow
 
Haven’t read a word. (But will!)

Thought I’d share this with you.

F1495BF9-4B5E-466A-AD2B-CDCC0F30D43E.jpeg

Mmmm... good!
Everyone liked it. And we were all surprised it wasn’t hot (as in spicy.)

Kay: “I’d have it again.”
Ruby: “I’ll let you know after tomorrow.”

:rolleyes1

Nope! Just 2 miles from the beach which I will avoid until the snow birds go away as I hate most of them! Just like I avoid most 'nice' restaurants at the moment to avoid them as well. I'm perfectly happy with my Fast Casual places like Hibachi of Japan, Moe's, Panera or my low brow places like Miller's Ale House, Pizza Places, or just doing delivery if I don't feel like cooking (which let's be honest, if I'm working that day - I don't want to cook).


I hear you on vet bills. I"m about to have a lot more vet bills since we're 8 days away from bringing Gantu home. Time for lots of vet visits + training costs! He won't get fixed until February 2019 so at least I got that waiting for me.
 
I'm caught up completely! So happy I made it over to your TR before it completely wrapped :goodvibes And I'll be sure to be on board from the start of your next one. Thanks so much for sharing your adventures - but yikes, your TR title was NOT an exaggeration! :faint: Looking forward to the bonus rounds :thumbsup2

PS - hope all the kitties are doing well :goodvibes
 
Must be someone I'm not friends with as mine was the only one I saw in my feed.

Could be. Now I don't remember who it was.
actually... wasn't it Liesa? I know Smidgy made that too (don't know if you know her. Nebo's DW. I've mentioned him before.)

. It's also called New England Boiled Dinner. You make it all in one pot. I have a very specific pot which can be used for many things, but I mostly use it for corned beef. It has a strainer basket inside the pot so you can easily remove the corned beef and root vegetables (which go in for the last 30 minutes). On top there is a steamer basket where I put the onions and cabbage for the last 10 minutes.

A pot just for that! Huh!

I was wrong, I had it planned until the 28th until this morning when I realized that was the day my parents arrive. I don't think they would want to eat John Wayne Casserole and Sausages, so Mom and I need to have a discussion.

The 28th.... I don't even know what I'm doing tomorrow.

Generally I am too. Although cutting down on pasta has allowed me to lose some weight!

But it's soooooo good!
 
A few weeks back, Fran caught an awful upper respiratory thing that she is starting to slowly recover from.

:hug:

The kittens are also starting to heal as well. Three of the five have been altered, O’Malley and Amelia are the only ones left to undergo the knife, but they need the all clear from the doctors.

Glad to hear that!

I have a meeting on Monday to take an application on the vacant apartment and I believe that this person will not flake out on me, like others have. I hope that the applicant qualifies and we can be done with this one for a while!

Well, considering Monday is over now... any news?

I am also placing this one on the market this weekend. I still have to modify the flyer after I measure the square footage of the place, but hopefully it will get snatched up quickly. It’s in a very desirable neighborhood and location.

Looks nice! I'd rent it.

While they’re here, we will go see the King Tut Exhibition

That sounds cool! Let me know how it was.

I have two weekends out at the Grand Californian next month. One with several of you who are reading along here

:wave:

Every time I go over there, I remove something from the apartment. Regardless of how small, if I keep doing that eventually the stuff will go away.

::yes:: That'll do it.

I woke up at 4:30 but knew I wasn't ready to get up.

:sad2: Stop that! Go to bed!

It was closer to 7AM when I woke up again

That's better. Glad you listened to me.

There was an envelope hanging on the door with my boarding passes and some stickers that looked like luggage tags. This was new to me, and I wasn't quite sure what to make of it. Especially since there was nothing for Fran.

Weird.

Sad, my cute little Tigger mugs is back in the Owner's Locker and I have to drink out of the bland DVC mugs.

Oh no!!!! The horror!!!!!!!!



;)

I gave the rest of my Honey Nut Cheerios, English Muffins, bread and Texas Toast to the Bellmen. The guy who took our bags was really happy about that!

I'm surprised they could accept.

I have no idea what happened with the scooter. It was still in the room when we left.

Maybe it was buried on site.

We probably could have rode over there, but I didn't trust the battery on the rental scooter.

Don't blame you one bit.

Our first stop was Blaze Pizza. It's been highly recommended by two of my readers here.

Never even heard of it. Huh.

You can also have them finish it with stuff like balsamic vinegar, arugula, pesto, olive oil, etc.

Looks like a pretty good selection of ingredients.


Certainly looks good.

It was good, but we both agreed that the short cooking time left the vegetables quite raw.

Hmmm... so... given the same time frame... If you only had meats on it (not that I'd want that), it would be okay?

They had it on display in the front window of the dress store, but they didn't have any in stock. Bizarre!

I hate when they do that.
"Okay. Then I'll just take the one that's on the mannequin."
"I'm sorry, we can't do that."


That's actually happened to Ruby.

no fancy Palace Balls that I will be attending.

This must be remedied.

But I think it will be coming out next month when we have a certain little Fondue gathering! :rolleyes1

::yes:: Looking forward to seeing you in your new dress! :goodvibes


That looks familiar...

Ever since the first morning when we picked up her scooter at the bell services desk and I got a cup of coffee at the QS in the lobby, I had been eyeing this strawberry shortcake.

I don't blame you! Looks really good!

The bus was right on time

The one and only time you hope the bus will be late... and never is.

We had to go to check in because Fran didn't have a boarding pass, so luckily there was no line and the agent reprinted my boarding passes as she could tell I was somewhat wary of the one Disney had given me.

Huh. Perceptive of her.

For the entire trip home Fran was grumpy. Not sure if it was from events of the day or that she just didn't want to go home.

Probably the latter! At least it is for me.

The flight had 5 empty seats and we were hopeful that we might get our money back for the third seat.

That's a possibility?

I hustled over there and ordered a Mile High Club. Now the variation on that phrase did not even occur to me until I was texting Jenny and Jill before take off.

Nice of him. :)

And there you have it, another interesting trip in the books!

And thanks for writing it! :goodvibes
 
Blaze Pizza!!! popcorn:: popcorn:: popcorn:: glad you gave it a try. I’ve gotten the same pizza every time, with artichokes, so never realized about the fresh veggies. They also have a pesto/garlic sauce that goes under the cheese and makes the crust divine!


How annoying about the scooter people. Glad they didn’t give you a hard time when they made the error.

Sorry Fran was grumpy. Sometimes I get myself in a last day funk and its so hard to pull out of.

The apartment looks lovely, I’d certainly rent it as well. To be that close to the beach would be heavenly.

Glad the kitties are doing good.

I hope Fran starts feeling better soon.

Cute Minnie dress! I love the Christmas one, I never saw that.

What a pain about the computer problems. Glad you’re able to retrieve your files. I have one of those external hard drives that I back up everything. Is Carbonite a cloud type place?

I’m sorry, I keep forgetting about the wine pictures. Well, I pass the wine and remember, and somehow forget, or get distracted by the cheese section... Next time I go I’ll take pictures.

Well it certainly has been an exciting week! Monday I woke up to find my computer was pretty much hosed. Literally. It was a laptop and I opened it up to find a wet spot on the screen right over the numeric keypad. Then I dabbed off the keypad, but the damage had already been done.

Oh, what a pain.

Fran, being the generous person that she is, let me have a laptop that she bought almost six months ago, but never got around to setting it up and transferring her files over.

At least you got a computer again.

I spent all day Monday retrieving files from Carbonite (while it was performing a complete system restore in the background. I started the restore process Monday, probably before noon, and as I type this Saturday, it’s only 30% complete.

I hate that part of the process. When I got this computer, the process of transferring files over took nearly a week.

A few weeks back, Fran caught an awful upper respiratory thing that she is starting to slowly recover from. The kittens are also starting to heal as well.

I am glad that everybody is recovering.

I have a meeting on Monday to take an application on the vacant apartment and I believe that this person will not flake out on me, like others have. I hope that the applicant qualifies and we can be done with this one for a while!

I am keeping my fingers crossed for you.

I am also placing this one on the market this weekend. I still have to modify the flyer after I measure the square footage of the place, but hopefully it will get snatched up quickly. It’s in a very desirable neighborhood and location.

Is this one of the apartments you used to live in?

My parents will be here in 10 days, and the house is still a disaster! While they’re here, we will go see the King Tut Exhibition, and attend a Disney Family of Wines Dinner (part of the Food & Wine Festival).

These plans sound amazing.

We are still not out of the old place, but we’re getting closer. Every time I go over there, I remove something from the apartment. Regardless of how small, if I keep doing that eventually the stuff will go away.

I am glad that progress is being made.

That dress is beautiful. It is strange that they had this on display if they did not have it in stock. I do like the one you got, too.

Oh brother. Just what you needed, another expense!

A few weeks back, Fran caught an awful upper respiratory thing that she is starting to slowly recover from.

Sorry to hear that. Hope she's continued to improve.

I have two weekends out at the Grand Californian next month. One with several of you who are reading along here (well maybe not quite the weekend part). And another with Jenny & Jill in honor of my upcoming birthday! :banana:

Excellent! Should be a blast!

I gave the rest of my Honey Nut Cheerios, English Muffins, bread and Texas Toast to the Bellmen. The guy who took our bags was really happy about that!

What a nice idea!

We probably could have rode over there, but I didn't trust the battery on the rental scooter.

Now why would you say that? :sad2:

It was good, but we both agreed that the short cooking time left the vegetables quite raw.

I can see where that might be an issue. Hopefully the meat wasn't raw too! :scared1:

They had it on display in the front window of the dress store, but they didn't have any in stock. Bizarre!

That had to be really frustrating.

For the entire trip home Fran was grumpy. Not sure if it was from events of the day or that she just didn't want to go home.

I know it would be the latter for me!

And there you have it, another interesting trip in the books!

Thanks again for taking us along on your adventures!

actually... wasn't it Liesa? I know Smidgy made that too (don't know if you know her. Nebo's DW. I've mentioned him before.)

Yes, it was me and I put it on Alison's FB feed. I do that dinner every St. Patty's Day if only for the fact that corned beef is on sale for $5.99 a pound or less. I should by 5 of them but don't have the freezer room anymore.
 
Well it certainly has been an exciting week! Monday I woke up to find my computer was pretty much hosed.

Oh brother! Just NOT what you needed! UGH!

Fran, being the generous person that she is, let me have a laptop that she bought almost six months ago, but never got around to setting it up and transferring her files over.

WOW!! That was super nice of her!

A few weeks back, Fran caught an awful upper respiratory thing that she is starting to slowly recover from.

I'm SO glad she's finally getting over that and starting to feel better.

I hope that the applicant qualifies and we can be done with this one for a while!

ME TOO!!! Sheesh!

we will go see the King Tut Exhibition

I did that in San Diego years ago and LOVED it. Very worthwhile.

And another with Jenny & Jill in honor of my upcoming birthday! :banana:


WOOHOO, Birthday Girl!
It was closer to 7AM when I woke up again

Much better. 4:30 is just not ok.

We probably could have rode over there, but I didn't trust the battery on the rental scooter.

Yes, I think I'd have trust issues with the scooters as well after all that.

Our first stop was Blaze Pizza. It's been highly recommended by two of my readers here.

YUM! Love Blaze!


I likey!

For the entire trip home Fran was grumpy.
