I like cheese curds. Not sure I've ever had dried and salted ones though.No idea when Rosie will pop in again, so I'll answer. Yes, the "petrified camel poo", more commonly known as dried and salted cheese curds, were the gifts of the day.
Brain sheets? If it's correlated to brain size, is it okay if I just do a brain pinhead? Far easier to carry, but far easier to lose. See what I did there?
Do you have access to a laminater? That looks like a good idea. Might have to steal...err copy your idea.
Or when the app decides it wants to just stop working and you have to spend 2 hours on the phone with support. Cough, cough...not that that's ever happened to anyone you know, I'm sure.
Hey Mike. Guess what day it is. Mike, Mike, Mike. Whoop whoop.
Oh!! You're a lucky ducky! I don't think I'll end up with that many, or if so, not for many years. But I agree, they are pretty great! And yes, I would absolutely count your adopted grandson! Adopted kids are just as much family and can have all the doting that one can give.

Do you have a link for your TR?? I would love to take a look!
To comment on your chapter, I do my Plan on a spreadsheet. I made a pretty detailed one for our trip to Hawaii last month. I put all of our flight info on it (record locator, times, flight number), what the plan is for each morning/afternoon/evening, addresses of places I want to go (points of interest, restaurants), etc. I also had a tab to track all of the bookings I needed to make for excursions and reservations, with the website, expected cost, and could check them off as I made them. I printed Judy a hardcopy but I pdf'd mine and put it in Dropbox so that I could access it on my phone. I do NOT want anything else to carry, flip-laminated or not.
I have pages for most of those things too like expected costs, flights, etc...
Believe it or not, I actually bought one at Office Max this time. $24.99 for it and it works great! I've done these cards for years and for all the money I spent on making them, I could have paid for a lamintor twice over. No more! LOL!

Looking ahead to my schedule, it appears I am down to not very many weekends left to update. So how about a nice little mid-week chapter of yet more Pre-Trip goodies?
Everyone needs a plan, right? Well, maybe some people can go without a plan of any sort, but those people may very well wait in longer lines, eat food they may not want, or waste precious park time in getting around. I don't want to be that person. Disney vacations just cost too much to fart around. (Er, okay. Fine. But I do try to limit that...)
Anyway, remembering the plan is an art!
Which I don't possess.
So, I make brain sheets. But not just any brain sheets. I create durable, handy-dandy, flippable brain sheets that double as a trip notebook. I'm rather proud of these little beauties so wanted to share them with you. There is plenty of blank room on the back sides for writing down all of the wonderful adventures I'm sure to have so I can share. Like I said, I can't remember what I had for dinner last night, so in a year or so, when this TR is more stale than nachos at a County Fair, I'll have something to remind me what I did.
It's also a handy little tool to attach my Food and Wine plan (which will be in a future update) and, as you already know, my little Scavenger Hunt cards. My flight confirmation #s and info is on the 1st page, so I have that handy too.
Waterproof enough for a Florida downpour, bendy so they don't stab me, small enough to fit in my new little fanny pack (yes, jumping in early in this retro return of the fanny pack!), yet big enough for all the important deets... I sound like an HG TV ad, no? George Foreman and I should have been working together. How many of you bought the sandwich press? Grill?
I still need to attach the pen with a piece of string, but other than that, they are ready to go.
I know the app has all that at your fingertips now, but dead batteries do (and have) happened, the app sucks, and it's easier than using the phone.
On an entirely different note, I bought my MNSSHP party costume accessories yesterday and am pumped at this year's get up. Things are coming together nicely.
Happy hump day, All!
She is an amazing photographer!
Wow, that's the one I suggested! I should get some credit as your producer!
Ditto...I enjoyed our trip, but it was a lot of running around trying to tick off all the "must do" items.
I would really like to do this someday, but slowing down would have to wait for a solo trip or at least one without kids in tow. Although I am far from a photographer, I did make a conscious effort to attempt a few creative photos this last trip. I don't think I pulled it off, but I tried.
What a great idea! I did have a spreadsheet, of course, on my trip, but it was just printed on paper. After day 3 or 4 it became a crumpled mess in the bottom of the bag and I didn't refer to it that often. I did keep some notes on my phone for a 'potential' trip report. You'll have to wait and see if that comes to pass...
