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.

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?

Drinking


A vacation isn't a vacation until the booze comes out.



Ooooooo, bubblesssssssssss . . .

Hiking


Exploring the swamp.



Palm trees!



Keeping an eye out for dinosaurs and alligators.

Running Errands


Cleaning up car mess and soaking up sun.



Tom'Atto discovers Sams Club.

Fresh Fruit

Picking fresh Florida grapefruit right off the tree!  Sure beats paying for it at the souvenir fruit stand.


Got a big one!



Loading up on vitamin C.



Swamp monkeys!

Trip to Florida, Part 2


Where are we?



Eew, yucky bathrooms.



I am the Frito Bandito!



Fourteen hours in the car can really run you down.



State line!  How exciting!



Really big bridge at Jacksonville.



No more road food!  Stopped for tasty chicken and fries.



Somewhat lost in Florida.  Trying an alternate route through the swamp.



Success at last!

Trip to Florida, Part 1

Our intrepid monkeys hit the road very early in the morning and head south.  There really isn't much to do for several hours but listen to loud music and try to stay awake.


Onward into the darkness.



Is it time for breakfast yet?



Sunrise!  Wakey, wakey!



Jammin' to some tunes.  Turn it up!



Driving through the Carolinas.



Some dude called Pedro, and his giant sombrero tower.
