    Wonderful walk, glad you had a decent time at the parks.

    <<Jet lag.. pardon the typos.

    EDIT FUNCTION PLEASE FOR THE UPTEEETH TIME!!!>>

    Many of us would love that.. but it might have to deal with their integration.

It doesn't even talk about soccer in the movie. Anyhow, I think poor France needs some help. At least the chocolate they sell there is good.

Not being a soccer lover, and knowing the film tries hard (and succeeds) in showing a classic view of France via it's classic music... I just don't see how adding anything remotely new and different would make this film as good as it is in it's original form. But again, I would not be apposed to a new travelodge film from around France, with basically the same soundtrack.

    I was surprised and a bit disappointed that DL had NONE of its Halloweentime decor up yet Saturday. (except for a kewl display you go by on the tram route from the parking garage)

    I may have 2-3 hours tomorrow to run down and see if they have anything up yet.

    Yes, those pumpkins in front of MK look more "upscale" for back of a better word than the decorations we saw last year.
