Florida ~ townhouse and shopping

Monday May 5th
We had checked into our townhouse by using our code for the gate and the house last night.  They ask you to look around and take photos of anything damaged, etc and let them know.  It all looked pretty good.  A little "used" but very nice and definitely large enough for us.  Location seems to be just what we'd like.

  We slept in until 9: 30 am and then went shopping!   Salvation Army was huge!  All dresses for $6
" We didn't go to Disney yet.  We went to thrift stores and grocery shopping too.  We went to a Salvation Army and it was huge.  I don't think that I have ever seen such a huge thrift store.  We found some nice clothes there.  Oh, I just remembered something!  So Mei and i were walking in the thrift store and we saw a big bin of stuffed animals.  We decided to look around and see what kind of animals they had.  I saw the head of something (maybe a bear?) and it looked homemade.  So I started to pull it out of the pile... it looked SO weird!  It was just a HEAD WITH LEGS!  The fabric was a creepy brownish flowerish pattern too.  We put baggy PJ bottoms on the cat and moved the cat around and it looked like it was floating.  We had a lot of fun with it.  We also found a store and bought a bathing suit for me!"


Quote from Kate when we found a bathing suit for her "Hey guys, we bought a bathing suit and we don't have to go to Fabricland to get something to fix it.  
Or to Wal Mart to find something to wear over it!"
"Mei and I share a room with bunk beds.  I'll start on the bottom double bunk first and Kate has her own room with a queen bed. Mom and Dad have a king size bed.  There are THREE bathrooms!... and a dishwasher!"
We took a day to get prepared for going to Disney and decided our first day would be EPCOT.
