Bugged and De-bugged! Heeeee's Back!


A wandering virus struck Larry and he has been under the weather for the last two days! It's hard to trace the source of it; but anyone who knows Larry, knows he's tried.  Ugh, it's been hard for him to be here poised to enjoy each day and deal with a cold - but - as of the last  few hours it's Larry 1 - Virus -0 !!  In addition, he had to have a lengthy conference call that took all his dwindling energy. That's when he reaffirmed what I already knew about him = He can talk to anybody-at any time - about anything!  I'm hustling out the door to give him some space as he is beginning the call, he's conversing  with someone in Texas he has never met, killing time while they wait for the conference call to begin. 

Later in the day, we have a sunset that Larry declares is unimpressive.  So our standards have obviously changed  Sunset the night before-

Sunset tonight -
I am not telling God this is not enough!

On Wednesday, we headed to Orlando's Universal Studios.  We can't go to Islands of Adventure without calling up memories of our trip with Aimee, Claire and Coco - where Aimee yells at Coco to get up when she lays on the ground writhing in supposed pain! - The wheel chair ride to the car - lost dinner at Margaritaville. Oh yes, we never forget!

 Today we realized that when we got to Islands of Adventure,  we raised the average age of those swarming the park.

  We are going to Harry Potter World!  It really captures the spirit of Hogsmeade and Hogwarts!  The Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey ride left us eager to have our own quiddich match.


A slightly older Harry and Hermione arrive in Hogsmeade to search for the potion that will rid the world of  'he who must not be named'............................................................................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





After Hogwarts, we were bold enough to challenge the Hulk!  It's a roller coaster ride that starts waaay too early and had tooo to many twists.  We survived-barely!  We got off, walked a few feet, sat down, rested, walked a few more feet, rested again - you get the picture.


Too late I realized Larry was standing in the Hulk's crotch!


Still resting!!!!

The roller coaster below is definitely up to the next generation of Fogels!!!



I finally figure out how to make the self timer work on my little canon.


One sad note:  Our beloved monsters of childhood have been relegated to selling pizzas and hot dogs!  Oh how the mighty have fallen!!
