Epcot yesterday went well until...

We took Frank up to Altamonte Springs yesterday to the only kosher grocery store in the Orlando area, Kosher Kat's. It is owned by the daughter of one of his old friends from the early Mishkan Torah days, Dave Unger. Jody, the owner, was at the store, but Dave was not. She was nice enough to tell us where he lived, so we went over for a bit of a talk before heading to Epcot. Frank and Dave had a delightful time reminiscing for an hour or so. There are a few pictures on the blog today of Frank with Jody, with Dave, and with Mark outside the store.

We wanted to do a little shopping for some fresh vegetables to make salad, but down here they take Easter very seriously! Most stores were closed. All the Publix and even the SuperTarget were closed. We had to shop at Goodings, a grocery store across from one of the main Disney entrances. It's for tourists and very expensive, but it was open. Once we got our veggies, we had our picnic Passover lunch in the car before heading over to Epcot.

Epcot is always fabulous. Frank rode some things he sort of remembered doing back in the '80s with Alice, but most of those things have changed somewhat. He did Spaceship Earth (the big iconic ball), Journey into Imagination (the Figment ride, Alice's favorite), Little Nemo, Mexico, Norway, the American Adventure, and Soarin'. We also saw Ricky Nelson's twin songs, Gunner and Matthew, sing two shows. It was a great day.

Once we got home, I realized I had lost the little folder that contained my season pass, $40, and a driver's license. I was devastated. I think it had fallen out the last time I pulled the camera out to snap one last picture as we left the park. I included that picture of Mark and Frank walking past Innoventions on our way out of the park. Anyway, there is GOOD NEWS!! It was turned in to the lost and found, and we are heading over there to retrieve it as soon as I'm finished the blog. So I'm finished, got to go!
