For the record, Disney World is the absolute worst place to be without your family for a few days. No reminders of happy families here...geez!
I've been in Orlando since Sunday night...which is just slightly warmer than Minnesota. But hey, no snow. Tomorrow, our departure day, it's going to be 70...then mid to high 70's this weekend. The timing was not to our benefit. Still, it's comical to hear the Floridians talk about the "deep freeze"...at the airport, the guy at the shuttle service was wearing a ski mask! A ski mask!! In 35 degree weather. It's easy to pick out the people who are natives to this State and those who are visiting...an amusing mixture of shorts and parkas passed me by as I was sitting out on the Boardwalk yesterday. Also, a plethora of happy families with cute little kids...which brings me back to my first point...next time I'm here, I'm bringing the fam...and spending the days with them instead of in the Conference Center attending an Actuarial & Underwriting Training Seminar.
Being away for 4 nights is tough for this working Momma who isn't away very often. I would say that I was probably ready to come home by noon on Monday. It's too quiet here...not enough hugs...not enough craziness...not enough smiley faces. Well, actually, those things are all around me...but they just aren't my people. I miss my people.

A trip to Disney World with family would be fantastic! I can just see you all there!
Yes, we Floridians are very easy to spot in our winter gear. Even in VA (after being here 3 years) I stand out like a sore thumb in my winter getup. Oh well... at least I'm warm. :)
