February 2007

Oh how fun February was!

First I took that Series 24 exam and passed. Some friends of mine all got together and we went to a caribbean restaurant in NoDa. Red Stripe, curried goat, oxtail and some tamer dishes. It was fun.
Then - I almost forgot - we all went out for Kerry's birthday. And you thought that a group fo 16 30 somethings would act differently than a group of 30 16 year olds. NOPE - not us girls. Everyone had an idea or agenda as to what to do - so we did lots... dinner at a mexican restaurant, drinks at an Irish pub, dancing at some italian restaurant that wants to be a night club. It was fun.

And finally, my mom went to Florida for the better part of the month. I'll let her share the details of her trip. I would say it was mostly golf. And I flew down at the end of the month to spend a week. We went to Walk Disney World!!!

I could write all about the trip and the many fun things we did. The first night at the park we had dinner at the resort at Animal Kingdom - I think that was the best meal we had - very unique. The next day we went to Animal Kingdom. The highlight of that park - Expedition Everest! And I dragged my unsuspecting mom (heck I was unsuspecting too) on that rollercoaster. When all the lights went out and we started zooming backwards!!!! I also remember we did talk to my grandmother from my mom's cell as we stood in line for the ride. Cell phone use isn't something I'd promote in Disney but it was for a good cause and I'm glad we did.
In other unique adventures of the trip we took ALL versions of transportation around the park - yet again riding in the front of the monorail into EPCOT. And we took the time to check out the various resorts - one is more breath-taking than the next.
Bottom line - I think I am a rollercoaster junkie.
