The in-laws come to Florida
I blame this large picture update for slowing down my posts. Hopefully in hindsight this trip is as funny/ridiculous as I remember it.
In attendance: Kyohei's Mom and Dad, his little sister, Maki and her friend Kaori

Day one: Already lots of stuff from the mall.
Everyone at The Top. Hooray for corn nuggets.
Day 2
Hare Krishna Lunch followed by a trip to the shooting range (naturally...)

Though I've been to a couple NRA banquets and I come from a place where school was canceled for buck and doe hunting seasons, I'd surprisingly never shot a gun before now. Now I can honestly say, having had the experience, that they are terrible, terrible, terrible. I wish they had never been invented and I sincerely hope that I am never shot or have to shoot anyone or any animal.
Off to Orlando to go Outlet shopping.
and, of course, a Japanese Steakhouse.
Day 3: Disney World, Magic Kingdom
Magic Kingdom is awesome! I forgot how much fun it is! Space Mountain is the best ride EVER!


father-in-law and I in Its a Small World
Magic!
Note to self, see the Princess and the Frog sometime

All of us trapped on Tom Sawyer's island
SOAKING wet after Splash Mountain. I walked around with a wet bottom until 11 pm. No joke.

Only one thing could cheer me-- a corn dog! I LOVE CORN DOGS!
Do you think Maki (red) and Kyohei look alike?

stealing the pirate treasure in Pirates of the Caribbean
Wow, the castle changes color at night!!! It was so pretty
Since it is now Christmas time, it was decorated with wreaths and started to "snow" at night.

Since the entire trip was quickly becoming a marathon shopping spree, I decided to roll with it and get some merchandise shots.
I quickly pirated Kyohei's candy
