Final Cinderella Ride pictures






I think these are the last of the carriage ride pictures that I'll post. I obviously loved this ride.

Beautiful Marilyn


Pronounced Mar-eee-leeeeen, or Mer-eee-linda!!!!!

The Cinderella Coach -Part II





More pictures from the Cinderella coach. Our horse's name was Ben and our driver was Mary.

The Cinderella Coach -Part I






We HAD to do it. We just HAD to rent one of the fairy-tale Cinderella Pumpkin coaches for one hour downtown. It was beautiful!
We brought aboard a big bag o' beer and some blankets and all bundled in. I took way too many pictures, but I couldn't help myself.

The Beauty Shop Restaurant



Here is Raymond's crab plate. I can't remember the name of it. All of the food here was fabulous.

Irish Pub time





To kill some time until our next scheduled restaurant opened, we had to drink pints in an Irish pub down the street. This was in Midtown, by the way, an area that Raymond loved. It was in this pub that Amy told us about kissing the Blarney stone on one of her trips to Ireland. She had a lot of other stories but I remember the part about the Blarney stone the best.

House of Mews




The House of Mews takes in abandoned cats and keeps them until they are adopted or die of old age. Marilyn and Raymond-Wamond-Whiney were most impressed with the cats, but Raymond had one word for the house staff: VENTILATION.
We were surprised that nobody walked away one cat heavier.
