My twins love coasters and they thought these were pretty tame. I think if we come back, we'll be sure to hit the mindstorms lab or whatever it's called, where the kids can build their own moving robots. I think it would have been a little hard for this year. There are definitely a number of attractions that are geared for very young kids, but my kids wanted to do them all anyway. We're a very enthusiastic bunch.

Originally Posted By threeundertwo Awwww, you guys are the best! The has been a fantastic trip.

I'm particularly touched by those whose names I don't recognize who un-lurked to say hello. I feel like I've been on vacation with a hundred of my best friends beside me. I'll try to get pictures up ASAP, although I confess I didn't take many of the miniatures. I'll go hunt those up on the net for you. I didn't think my camera could do them justice. Special thanks to ilvdland for greeting us with coffee! To Ursula, my partner in crime and the best Easter Bunny these kids ever had, to the mods for cleaning up my messy repeat posts, to cingular and Palm for this great Treo hardware and software, and especially to my fabulous husband and kids who put up with mommy and her constant posting. We're hitting the road this morning for a leisurely drive home.

Now I HAVE to ask her if they crossed paths with 2/3. How funny that would be.
