Atlanta Georgia

Here we are in Atlanta! Having a blast with Mickey and Babs.  Today we milked a mechanical cow at a dairy called Mayfield Dairy with the cow.  We ate dessert before lunch today! The sundaes were great.  We decided to stop early today because we over did it yesterday.  Since check in isn't until 3 on Saturday, we thought - why not?  There have been many sweet moments.  Just now, Mickey was in the bathroom talking to herself.  When we asked her what that was about she replied "I was talking to Mom in heaven and I told her that I loved and missed her."  She is so excited about Florida!  When we checked into the room tonight, she kept telling Babs and I "thank you".  She doesn't really understand the concept of time.  She thinks the vacation doesn't start until we reach Florida!  We have had many conversations and she keeps saying things like "this is great, now next year..." Very Mickey.  She absolutely loves going to hotels.  And she needs constant reassurance that we are spending each night at one.  She spends a lot of time bonding with her stuffed dog she calls BeeGirl.  Any concern is voiced to the stuffed animal and when we ask what she said, then she will tell us what it is.  Are we hard to talk to?  She is in her element with being in a strange environment - she gets to talk to "strangers". She always introduces herself "I'm Michelle".  She expects all to know and love her  Babs and I are there as her P R agents making sure they do.  She is a real hoot.  She believes that everyone at Disneyworld knows her and are waiting for her to arrive.  Only a Macier could have such confidance.  When she was at my house we were watching X Factor, you know how she is with singing, and when she loved a female singer she looked at me and said "Is she a Macier?"  Bob and I laughed and laughed over that one.  You know I have to kind of agree with her on that one, who could be better than a Macier?  Babs posted new pictures today and tried to download the little movie on Thursday morning when we finally broke the news to her we were going on this trip.  For some reason it could not be done.  She says she'll try again.  It is too cute.We are having a much better time today than yesterday what with the blowout and all.  We think it was just too much for her and we think we have it all figured out.  Anyway, the three of us are having a wonderful time.  Loving the leisurely pace.  Gotta go.  After all, tomorrow is another day!
