They happily obliged and we began the process of planning yet another Disney vacation.

A trip to Germany wasn't feasible for all of us, so the obvious thing to do was to book a long weekend at Walt Disney World for me and my twin teenage boys. I realized back when she signed up that she'd be gone for about a week, right around the time the boys and I would be off from school for a four-day weekend courtesy of the Jewish holiday of Rosh Hashanah. My indefatigable wife ran the Berlin Marathon this past weekend. Now, I didn't plan to be down here for this momentous event. The big difference was, this time, it was the last ever presentation of IllumiNations. Our day ended, like every Disney day should, by watching the glorious IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth. We took an afternoon break to swim at the Alligator Bayou quiet pool, and then headed over to Epcot's World Showcase for some delectable delights from the Food and Wine Festival. Six hours later, we were headed out of Pandora. We started off the day at Animal Kingdom on Kilimanjaro Safaris. My boys are asleep in their beds, conked out after another amazing but exhausting marathon day in the parks.

Stacy Aswad is on the television in an endless loop - it's the only thing allowed on TV while we're down here.

Right now, I'm sitting in my room in the Alligator Bayou section of Disney's Port Orleans Riverside resort tapping away at the laptop. In all the years of writing here on MousePlanet, going back about 11 years, I've never actually written an article while I'm in Walt Disney World, until now that is.
