Yayy!! My DSL issue was indeed the wireless router. After many phone calls to two continents, I finally got the right guy in St Louis, who dispatched someone within an hour who had the whole thing installed and working in 20 minutes. Hooray!!

So I guess y'all want to know about vacation. We pretty much let Glen pace the trip.. if he wanted to go on something that's where we went, if he was hungry (like, when isn't he??) we ate. When it seemed he was getting tired, we'd go back to the hotel and let him sleep until dinner.

First day we took the Monorail to the park (after a little glitch but that's a whole nother story). Glen had said he wanted to go on Space Mountain first, but the train dropped us off by the submarines and so that's what he wanted to do first. Have to say the subs have been upgraded with the Finding Nemo theme and are a lot more fun! Then the men folk went on Space Mountain, followed by Star Tours, which got me and Glen both a little queasy! He actually did surprisingly well with the queasy thing given he has less upper body strength to stabilize himself.

Second day was Pirates of the Carribean, Jungle Cruise, Enchanted Tiki Room.. good stuff. Don Bear, Rushi and I all got Mardi Gras beads while watching a concert in New Orleans square.

Glen's birthday was Sunday... started with a character breakfast a Goofy's Buffet. Great Great time! Glen got his picture taken with Goofy, Pluto and Princess Jasmine. Don Bear got his picture taken with Jasmine also, who then pulled up a chair and chatted while turning Don Bear's Mardi Gras beads into a star pendant! Kev & Rushi went off to the park while Glen, Sharon and I took the afternoon off... went to the open air sports bar, had lunch and drinks, watched football and played with the remote control boats.. Glen was best at it. After Glen's nap we headed back to the park... our plan was to take the train to New Orleans square, have dinner and watch Fantasmic, go on Haunted Mansion then watch the fireworks. That's what we get for having a plan... or not sticking to it! Got on the train, went to New Orleans square, figured we had lots of time, and would ride the train all the way around the park. Next station, train stopped. Waited a couple minutes, train moved forward to Tomorrowland.. where it broke down for good and we had to get off exactly opposite of where we wanted to be. By the time we walked back, having not had dinner, it was almost time for fireworks. Found a place to sit at a refreshment center, but all they had for dinner was hot dogs, chili dogs and pretzels with cheese sauce. But the fireworks were amazing!! Plan then was to go to Haunted Mansion after.. unfortunately, Glen totally ran out of steam and wanted to go back to the hotel. On the way back, his leg threatened to buckle on him and it was a very slow walk. This was the most obvious his leg involvement has been, and is fairly new. He had a fairly rough night.. lots of leg twitches, which are painless, but interrupted sleep for both of us.

Monday was Sharon's birthday... she and the kids went off to the park while we stayed behind and had a very pleasant visit with long time friend Steve Shea. Then we all went off to Medieval Times, where I surprised everyone by having reserved front row seats. The show was great.. Don Bear was of course smitten by the Princess... who dropped a flower to a knight who then threw it to DB. He has decided that Princesses are better than wenches. Such a fickle bear.

After dinner tonight I will start working on the pictures. We have hand therapy and speech therapy in the morning, so the pictures will probably get up in the afternoon sometime? Oh, and the dogs are now home safe and sound.
