The best $125 we spent in Disney Springs (including 3 irresistible pair of Havaianas): The Amphicar Tour experience. You hop in a car, it turns into a boat, and then your skipper "drives" you around the lake while telling you some of Disney's little-known secrets. Like BIRDS. Birds are the reason your dining experience remains bug-less. That was a lame example of a secret, but it stuck with me mostly because I'm fascinated by Disney's food-rich, bug-free environments.

THE LID. Listen, I deep...
Continued from previous post ... It's the day you've been waiting for: baby registry day. A store clerk hands you the scanner wand, a folder of miscellaneous papers about child rearing, coupons for already overpriced items and a list of recommended things the store says you should add to your registry. All the good moms add these items; you're a good mom aren't you? So you take your wand and your enormous prego belly and with a false showing of confidence you pretend to know what you're doing. You scan the shelves trying to remember what your sister/mother/best-friend-who's-a-mom told you as you scout out what you think could possibly maybe be something like what you heard was good that one time. Half way through the first aisle you're totally overwhelmed, and underfed. As you reach into your purse for a granola bar to power yourself through to aisle #2 you can't quiet the questions swimming through your head: Why is a butt thermometer 50 dollars? How...
