A great way to start the vacation! I love taking that first flight of the morning and getting to WDW before lunch!

I am so glad you started! I was starting to wonder....
As for being thirsty, there are a few ways that can be fixed, I wonder what you choose!!

I can identify with waking up before the alarm. I almost always do too.

Wow waking up before your alaram. No way for me, there is no way i would have been up on my own at that hour of the day. More likely to not have gone to bed then be up that early.

Glad to see you made it and that the alarm issue wasn't bad. Love the pic of you on the beautiful beach - now off to AK for some FABs!

Whew! Glad you woke up on time!
50 minutes from your front door to the gate = jealous me! It takes us longer than that just to drive to the airport!
So glad the sister made it to the plane; I can just picture you sitting there worrying while your seat mate calmly went about her business.

Hi, and thanks to all who sent birthday wishes. I had a wonderful birthday at WDW and it was made even more special because Jill and Sharon chose to join me for the celebration.
