Lily and the Holy Land

Well, for those of you who have been concerned and praying for Lily, her fever seems to have gone away and we are all planing to go to the Magic Kingdom tomorrow. Thanks for your prayers -- it was a little tense for about 24 hours there. ter She is still coughing a little bit, but overall seems to be much better.

Today, Amy, Nate and Lily chilled at our vacation house and I went for a couple of hours to the Holy Land Adventure here in Orlando. Kudos to Juice for suggesting it...there are some really worthwhile sights there. It is also one of the homes of Trinity Broadcasting Network, and I saw one of their hosts today -- she seriously wears as much makeup as Tammy Faye Bakker -- it was BAD!

They have a lifelike reproduction of the Tabernacle, as well as this huge model of Jerusalem built to scale. They have also have a world renowned collection of early Biblical manuscripts, set up in a unique format which went from early manuscripts up through Wycliffe and Tyndale. Fascinating for a geek like me.

We are planning on a big day tomorrow at the Magic Kingdom and then Amy and I are attending...(drum roll, please!)...the 9pm performance of La Nouba, the Cirque Du Soleil show here at Disney. Should be a GREAT day!

Oh, and for those who know and love him...Nathan would officially like to go home (smile)!

Had not heard of the Holy Land Adventure. Sounds very interesting.

It's too bad you couldn't express yourself a little more clearly about your tendency to be a wee bit negative toward Bill B. You shouldn't hold back like that. Not good for your blood pressure.

I can identify with Nate. It's how I feel after about 45 minutes of shopping. "Ok, people, I've had plenty. Let's head for the house and unwind." Hopefully the rest today will get his batteries recharged or better yet get his overload discharged. :-)

By the way, so glad LWX is feeling better.
