The Disney Spirit

Just his size!

Scary candy apple.

Best roller coaster ever.

Tourist pics.  Even the trash cans are shiny.

Clearly not of royal blood.  Maybe if he had any blood at all . . .

Swiss Family Robinson house!

Waiting for fireworks.

Good Eats

The Rainforest Cafe, full of greenery and screeching animals.  Very nostalgic.

Later, he opted for something a little more refined, breakfast quiche in France.

Shopping!  But not buying.

Long Lost Relations

Hey, cousins!  Time out for happy snaps.

Mini Safari

Took a few minutes to drive through Africa, deep in Animal Kingdom. :)

Giraffes in the road!  But beware the rude elephants around the bend . . .

Oh, my.  Moving right along. . .

Satch and the upside down tree!  Seriously, that's what they call it.  Look it up.

Gettin' the hairy eyeball from some zebras.

And from the white rhinos.  Can this bus go any faster?

Wait, where are we?

Road Trippin' Restaurants

Satchmo is road-trippin' again!

Passing through Macon, dreaming of baklava. 

Meeting up once again with Tom'Atto in their favorite haunt, the Cracker Barrel, Whereverville, USA.

Mission Trip

Success!  Arrival at the hotel.  Unfortunately, the outside was the best thing about it.

Soaking it up.

Outside Mission San Antonio de Padua, waiting for the gift store to open.

More fountains!

Vineyard Picnic

Vineyard picnic party with roosters.

Orange soda!

Sugar Shopping

Satchmo scored a chocolate frog. 

California Bound

Satchmo has been very disorganized and has forgotten many times to post the pictures of his most recent California adventure.  Before he can forget again, here they are!

Waiting for our flight with a brand new shirt!

Many hours later, a brand new car!

Brand new burgers!

Winter Weather

Snow for Christmas!

Decking the Halls

Time to decorate!

Visions of sugar plums, and all that.  Maybe some chocolate-dipped banana kebabs . . .

Out for Pizza

His favorite, veggie pizza and water on the rocks!  If only they had a bendy straw.

Indian Mounds

'Ocmulgee National Monument protects and preserves "Lands commonly known as
the Old Ocmulgee Fields," which documents a 12,000-year continuum of people and their
Middle Georgia environment.'  

Wow, heavy stuff, just like those big baskets of dirt they used to make these hills.

Nobody said anything about keeping off the sign.

Dickey Farms

Shopping for a little local color at Dickey Farms.  Always excited about fresh fruit!

Score!

Headin' South Again

Satchmo is becoming quite familiar with this stretch of I-95.  Here he's stopped at a Cracker Barrel on his way down to Georgia, anticipating a lovely lunch of chicken salad and getting in some practice at the peg game while Tom'Atto isn't around.

Home Again

And now it's time for that long, long road trip back home.  Pack up the granola bars and bottled water.

Grapefruit

Fruit poachers!

Mmm, tasty.  Tom always needs extra sugar.

Backyard

Feels like summer.

Giant pineapple or tiny palm tree?

Orange fruits!

Barbed wire.

Wildlife.

Wagon ride!  Maybe that isn't the best place to sit.

Will it bite?
