I live in a three-bedroom palace. My roommate's taking the smaller suite while I've got the master suite. (I'm expecting company for the weekend, you see. ;)) I even get a balcony across from EPCOT and Magic Kingdom--free admission for the nightly fireworks shows!
It's a late spring break but it's a good spring break. Anybody else have any good spring break stories? Any exotic locales or fun trips?

I spent my spring break in sunny Corpus Christi last week. Well, I live here. Lots of folks come down here for spring break on the beach. Of course, last week from Tuesday through Thrusday it was chilly and windy, a bit rainy. Local news showed movie theatres as spring break sites, and my daughter ended up on TV for about 4 seconds as she went into the theatre with my wife. This week is of course three days straight of balmy weather, kids back in school, me back at work. Nice timing, Mother Nature . . . NOT!
I cleaned out the garage, fixed cars, fixed furniture, fixed toilets, fixed windows, fixed blinds . . . and did some much needed spring cleaning. (Throwing out things that have been festering for some years, collecting dust.)
And, played plenty of LOTR Risk with my son, watched two of my daughter's high school softball games. Finished Undaunted Courage by Stephen Ambrose. My son went to a local hockey game.
Can anyone stand the excitement of middle aged spring break?
