2 Days
(I wrote this yesterday and thought I had published, not so, so here it comes tonight)
Florida has a neat thing. You can go to a web site, type in your drivers license and other info and list two people to be contacted in case of emergency. What a great and efficient way to let loved ones know if you've been in an accident or disaster. All they need is your drivers license number and officials can tap into a data base with your contact info on file. How cool is that!!? Here's a direct link to set it up: https://www6.hsmv.state.fl.us/dlcheck/findcustomer
This system will also give peace of mind to loved ones. For example, I know that if Richard is injured, ill, etc. someone from the state will contact me on my cell phone and let me know where and how he is. I'll need to be keeping better track of my cell phone, though. I leave it all sorts of places and don't hear it when it rings.
Well, now for today's scribbling:
We went to Epcot because the International Food & Wine Festival is winding down and there is a great deal we haven't seen and tasted. We're not too much interested in the wine part. Neither of us knows anything about wine nor are we especially fond of it, although I do use good wines in cooking. The foods are another matter. All around the World Showcase, there are special stands serving chef created delicacies from different countries. The praices are even reasonable.
Richard and I went in separate vehicles because he had to be a work at five, and I stayed on the enjoy the park and the food a bit longer. In fact, I was in the park until an hour after closing. Actually, that's my favorite time. Nearly all the people have left and you can enjoy the beauty of the place in peace and quiet.
Oh, I enjoy the people, too, and had some nice visits with a number of folks including a marine biologist from Canada and a couple from just north of New Orleans. Sometimes, though, I feel overwhelmed by all the people and noise and visual stimuli. I find quiet nooks here and there and just watch the people. Sometimes, I retreat to a restroom, but even there it can be crowded and noisy.
Tomorrow is Richard's day off. We are going to drive over to the eastern coast and take a one day "cruise." I doubt I'll be home with enough energy or time to post, so stay blessed... I love you all!
