We're flying out of Memphis at 7:00 am Friday the 11th and arriving in Orlando at 10:00. We're going to stay through Tuesday so we can have a few days at the park and out flight leaves Orlando at 9:45 pm. The airfares right now are unreal. Last year it was almost $400 a person to fly with a layover in Atlanta. Frontier Airlines started flying out of Memphis this past May and now we can fly nonstop to Orlando for $159 a person. Thats total with taxes.

I can hardly wait. RnR rollercoaster better not be closed this time!

This year I arrived on Friday and left on Wednesday. I'm not sure what I'll do next year. Probably similar. It would be nice to extend to the weekend since I get the following Monday off, but that's a lot of money spent on hotel rooms.

We're sharing a room with some family to cut down on costs. There are 9 of us total going, 7 doing either the half or the full. I'm the only one dumb enough to do both. :D

My wifes 71 year old grand mother is doing her first half marathon, so I'm going to run/walk with her. Her goal is sub 3:00, and I think she can do it. She's always been real active and fit and she recently caught the running bug. I wish I could increase my 5k times as fast as she does. Her first was about 6 months ago and she did it around 46 min. She did one last month with us in Jacksonville and was in the 38s. To make it worse, she always wins 1st or 2nd in her age group, so she talks trash to us when we dont place.lol. She told me it was my job to make sure she gets at least 3rd in her age group at Disney.

Along with her its my mother in law, my wifes aunt and uncle, her 2 cousins, and me. My wife is sitting this year out because her crazy school schedule leaves her no time to train.
