Sun Rail; Leg Room; Disney

SUNRAIL: I just witnessed a historic event here in Central Florida - Governor Crist just signed a bill to get commuter rail started -- apparently it's been a big fight here for several years. Of course Jon was stoked. I decided to go so I could see our oh-so-very-tanned governor in person.


LEG ROOM: I wanted to share with you all a little tip. If you ever have to fly Allegiant Air, make sure you get a seat on the side of the aisle where there are only 2 (not the other side, with 3). The 3-seat side has the seats much closer together. The 2-seat side has more leg room than I have ever experienced outside of first class. Jon thought he had died and gone to heaven! He was even fine in the window seat! Here is a picture for proof.

DISNEY: Jon and I went to Magic Kingdom for our first time on Sunday. It was fabulous. The Christmas decorations were wonderful, and our longest wait was 20 minutes. Peter Pan was a 35 minute wait so we skipped it even though I remember loving it in Disney Land. We played in Magic Kingdom till about 2pm, then hopped on over to Animal Kingdom (where I've been before) so we could go on Everest and the animal safari. Then we tried Hollywood Studios but weren't overly impressed. We decided to go to Disney because we have had two free park-hopper tickets sitting in a drawer for over a year but kept forgetting about them. They expire December 17 - so suddenly we had to hurry up and use them. A great (and cheap!) date!!!! I can't say I understand why people would want season's passes though -- that's a whole lot of money and Disney is TIRING! Next date: foot massages for two! :)
