Wookie Hugs!

Vacation Pictures! Further than Disney World, these pictures are from a long long time ago, in a galaxy far far away! More specifically, the Black Spire Outpost on the planet Batuu. On the Galaxy's Edge. Minty's own personal Star Wars adventure!

Traveling here is like a warm hug from a friendly Wookie! Like the Force itself, this place surrounds you and flows through you with all the the power that Star Wars has to offer. You feel completely immersed and it's very easy to imagine yourself right in the movies as if it was totally real.

Trail's End

Happy Thanksgiving! What a coincidentally great day to post pictures of food. The first night of our Disney vacation, we arrived at the hotel, and then went to go get some dinner. Sounds simple, right? Yet this was going to be a memorable occasion.

Here's where we planned on eating. My friend heard this was a "hidden gem" of a place. Little did we know how much this little gem would be worth. Spoiler alert: priceless.

Thanksgiving Vacation

Are you excited for some vacation pictures? You better be, because there's a ton of them! If pictures weighed anything, this amount would crush you. What could possibly get this many pictures, you ask? Drumroll.... Disney World! So prepare yourself for lots and lots of posts full of Disney Magic. This first group is just about fun pictures of the general travelings.

First was a drive down to Virginia. The airfare was a LOT cheaper and it gave us a wonderful opportunity to do an early Thanksgiving, un-bothered by shopping mayhem and an easier time gathering the whole family together. Here we stopped right before the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel because the sunset was making the water "glow" awesomely.

We All Scream For... Pictures

Have another bunch of fun tasty pictures? You can take all the pictures of food you want, as long as you don't over-eat the actual food.

New Ice Cream flavors at Target. Not quite sure what to think about Cereal or Peanut Butter & Jelly. We went with Rainbow Road because of the Mario Kart reference. I guess you gotta add your own banana peels and blue turtle shells.

Waking Up with a Bang

Here's a short posting from a crazy morning we had last week. My friend was awoken by a bright light from his window at about 5:30am. Followed by another flash of brightness but this time accompanied by a loud "explosion" noise, crackling, and power outage.

This street pole outside had blown up and burst into flames! My friend hurriedly dialed 911. It took the Police less than 2 minutes to show up. Notice he called them before grabbing Minty for some pictures.

Halloween 2019 part B

One more bunch of pictures from our Halloween walk around the blocked-off street in Hightstown.

The guy at this house was dressed up perfectly like Willy Wonka and had all the gestures and mannerisms down, too. He had a long line but we were still tempted to go through it so he could yell at us the classic "You get NOTHING! You LOSE! Good DAY, sir!" He probably would have nailed that, too.

Halloween walk around part 1

We were originally not going to get excited about Halloween this year. It was supposed to be rainy and we did the walk-around last year, so we thought it might be okay to give it a soft pass. But I talked my friend into it, mainly just to try and see how well the new super camera would get pictures this year.

My friend wore the same leather jacket and "Lucille" baseball bat that he did last year. It was even more surprising this year how many people still yelled out "NEGAN!" or were heard saying "OMG Walking Dead that's awesome!"
