images from disney.

i already posted many of my half marathon pics, so here are more just from the disney trip....not really marathon related. they are completely out of order and mixed up, and i am too lazy to organize them, so i apologize for the randomness of them all. i am also too lazy to really write anything about the trip, so the short version is this.

it was completely fun, and definitely the coldest disney/florida trip ever, but it was better than ohio, at least it was fun! i had a blast, loved the resort we stayed at, enjoyed the half marathon, and just enjoyed being with my mom and aunt and soaking up all the magic of disney.

i went camera happy on this trip, and this long line of photos are just some of what i took! beware, it's long!

Oh Maggie, it looks like you had a fantastic time! My family and I are headed to FL this month and plan to do just one day at the Magic Kingdom. Do you have any tips for me? I can't wait to do the DW half. Maybe in 2012!

Heather, I don't have much to tip you, I have never spent just one day there! Take advantage of fastpass, get there early, and have fun! Lines tend to sometimes be short during parade/firework times, too. Just have fun and soak it all in! Think of me running up Main St. in that cold, sleety weather as you walk up Main St. and then visualize it being you, but without the sleet! Maybe we can run it together some day! If I EVER decide do a full, it'll be there! Maybe I'll see ya in 2012, for the half! Just have fun and enjoy!

These are some great pictures. And they will forever remain in history as the first time we have had to bundle up in Cleveland attire in the "sunshine" state! I know next year, we will be wearing different outfits and LESS clothing!
But it still was a lot of fun. I want to go back. And would really like to be there right now.
