HI again everyone! If you are following our trip reports, or if you've missed them, here is a linked index. Isn't this very techie of me? 
Day One (both chapters are on this thread): http://theabeforum.com/view_topic.php?id=1849&forum_id=2&highlight=disney
Day Two and Three: http://theabeforum.com/forum2/1880.html
David in Disney: http://theabeforum.com/view_topic.php?id=1920&forum_id=2&highlight=disney
And here's the new installment!
Day Four: "We're not at the Yacht Club anymore Toto..."
Well, we've moved to the Marriott Village in Orlando.. just outside Disney property. We love this place. It can't compare in luxury to Disney's YC, but it makes up for it in a lot of convenience for a long stay. Of course I will ignore the microwave (I might use the fridge but only for sodas, not for "real food") because even "heating up" feels too much like chores and "regular life"! I'll take my food "out" while on vacation, please Universe! 
I can't believe it's Monday night already! Where is the time going? Well, noplace I guess, since time doesn't exist? Actually, David and I have often practiced "expanding time". When something great is happening (like an Abe Cruisefor instance) we've been known to set an intention for it to "last longer" or when we're late for something we ask for "more time". It works! Try it... Abraham once said in one of their workshops that expanding time was possible, and we've been doing it ever since. Okay, that was a really long digression! Sorry...
Today we did a whole day of EPCOT, and a wonderful day it was. We went "Soarin' Over California" and looked at the "Living Seas", and visited several European countries, all before lunch. Then we rode the monorail just for the fun of it. At the Epcot station we asked the attendant if we could ride up front with the "pilot". We could! Wow.. I really enjoyed the view - David really enjoyed gathering statistics and monorail trivia from the pilot. One of the pavilions at Epcot is IMAGINATION. Every other line in the attraction was something Abraham has said over and over again. If you can see it in your mind, you are creating it. Of course, the Disney ride didn't say "line up vibrationally and you will manifest your vision". But... I know that's what they MEANT to say. Right?
The only sort of upstream part was the Living with the Land. The exhibit itself is awesome. It's all about growing crops with no soil - and often hanging from poles rather than lying on the ground.. and bigger and better vegetables and fruits. Lots of really cool inventions. The reason it was upstream in parts was the comments about the "shortage" of this or that resource in the earth... it felt like "lack thinking", which for so long has gone against my grain, I chafed a bit when I heard these things in Disney. But then I realized - look at what's come out of this! All these really cool inventions - so that's definitely downstream! It's not as if someone is sitting around bemoaning the fact that there is "not enough" to feed the world, etc... rather, they are joyfully DOING inspired action to rectify the seeming situation, and lots of good of all kinds is taking place, not the least of which, the creative energy itself and the FUN the inventors and scientists are having!
Jody: This is so cool! We're on the Green Monorail. There's the Grand Floridian Resort!
David: How much horsepower does this thing have?
Jody: Wheee! Look over there, you can see the castle.
David: What's the maximum speed this thing can do?
Jody: Look, we're coming up to the Contemporary resort lobby...
David: How much does this thing weigh empty? How many people can it take at once? What year were the trains replaced? How many cars in each train?
Jody: Are we there yet?
By the way my segment intending and asking the U and then "letting it go" is all working to perfection! I really wanted David to experience "Off Kilter", a wonderful "Celtic Rock" band that performs in Epcot outside the Canada pavilion. (Not because David particularly likes men in skirts, but because the music is really wonderful - especially the bagpipe - something you don't hear or see every day). I didn't know what time their performances would be today, but I set the intention that we'd be outside Canada at just the right time. Well.. you guessed the rest. Perfection. Thank you Universe... more please!
Stay tuned for tomorrow... our BIG DAY in the MAGIC KINGDOM!!!::fairies
We did spend some time there our first night, but only for the fireworks and parade. Tomorrow is the day for rides and attractions. Poll: who thinks I'll get David on DUMBO? 
Thanks for reading everyone!!

Carol and Dawn! You most definitely are not bugging us ("Carol, if you are good we'll stop in a few minutes for a beer") and pictures of COURSE will follow. It's still dark, but I am up and as excited as a kid to get to the Magic Kingdom! More soon!!!

Wow, so glad you took this digression, Jody. I am inspired!
With love,

 Jody for some inexplicable reason I feel as if I am in Florida. I feel like a little mouse who has climbed into david's shirt pocket and is peeking out during the trip.
  
I just love your jokes, keen discription & your enthusiasm. You and David must be having a blast. What a wild ride.  Thank you for taking me along the trip with you, feels great to be in Florida!

 Imaaaaaaaa-gin-aaaaaa-tion, Imaaaaaaaa-gin-aaaaaa-tion .....you won't get that song out of your head for a LONG time! I haven't been there in 10 years and it still pops into mine every now and then.....it's just like "It's a Small World!"  Love the recaps....it's almost as good as being there and you guys are hilarious! So glad you are having a wonderful time!
