Kristen and David Arrive at Bag End




David and Kristen arrived at Bag End and were greeted by our footmen. (We only call them in for really special guests!)

We went to Disney world where Kristen and I got up at 3:30 in the morning, waited in line with 20,900 other folks and then ran 13.1 miles. We got some really cool medals and I got a certificate from some friends to 'have my head examined'


We went to Crabby Bills where we had a couple of pints.

We went on a long boat ride on the intercostal and saw a 'plethora' of dolphins!


David showed me how to drive the boat without hitting Dolphins (or other things I'm not supposed to hit).
We went to Hogwarts and Kristen was invited for a train ride on the Hogwart's Express. She spent quite a bit of time walking into a wall trying to get on. We had to explain that she was still recovering from running 13.1 miles. They were very understanding and gave her a certificate to have her head examined.


We got to tour Hogwarts castle

Cindy discovered some ancient ruins.

We drank beer at the hogs head pub in Hogsmeed.
David, Kristen and I took a boat ride. It's a little hard to see us but if you look close you can see me screaming about having my head examined.
I had lunch with a squirrel.


Best of all we got to spend time with our kids. We feel blessed that they are a part of our lives.
This is Kristen studying the training schedule for next years Goofy. (She still hasn't used her certificate.)

After two weeks of babysitting in the wilds of Northern Michigan Cindy has returned to Bag End. Apparently the temp. was in the mid-teens when she left Michigan and mid 80's degrees when she arrived in Florida.

I think Our two above average grandchildren gave her quite a workout.
