Size does matter!

Size, as in distance, weight and amount was the theme of the day.

Oddly, I woke up early and jogged 4 miles in humid weather, but I was happy, I managed to jog twice this week, even while on vacay.

Jogging will be a future entry.

Topping all previous known levels of geekdom, I'm blogging this as I walk thru epcot at 10pm

Quick bfast @ the boardwalk and we walked over to disney studios, killed a few hours there, bought stuff there, boated back to the hotel and walked over to epcot first time. Rode the mexico ride (for you Seth & Mar), and wandered around a bit, it was more crowded today so we just took it easy in the ridiculously hot weather today.

BTW-just rode the Land ride

Back to the hotel where we saw part of the original Runng Scared movie with Biily Crystal (note to Chicago folks reading, watch the movie it shows Chicago in the 80s)

Went to dinner at Kimonos at the swan hotel, nuch sushi and particularly tuna salsa was consumed.

Back to epcot where more merchandise was purchased and a crepe was consumed

Quick programming note, lunch was a turkey leg per miller family member.

Back to hotel to freshen up, then watched fireworks at epcot from the hotel area.

Epcot is open till 11 tonight for hotel guests so we headed back over, where I write this now.

So, we walked a lot, bought a lot and truly realized people weigh a lot...

Now look, I'm not the thinnest person, and I'm far from happy with my weight, but, the sheer number of obese folks, and I'm talking "holy crap!" level obese I've seen is staggering. Those stories are right, we're a large country in the wrong sense.

Case in point, after we saw the fireworks, we passed by the pool and I saw a 300 pounder in a bikini. After clawing my eyes out and washing my mind's eye out with soap I have considered starting a charity that will distribute mirrors to those in need to prevent things like this from happening. I shall call this charity: Operation Take A Second Look Before You Leap...

As we walk back to the hotel, this was a good, busy day...
