Hmm, maybe Lynn would like a set of mouse ears for Mother's Day. There are several lying around here somewhere.

Yeah, whatever, here's a top 4 from me:
4. Use FastPass
3. Get to the parks early
2. Wear comfortable shoes
And my number 1 tip, If you're foolish enough to rent a watercraft at WDW, be careful somebody don't run over your dumb ass.

Woman hit by Disney ferry boat

Yet another accident involving Disney transportation happened this week, this time in the water. On Thursday afternoon, Barbara Wormald and her husband, Michael, were driving a rented two-seat boat when they crashed into a ferry. Barbara was taken to Orlando Regional Medical Center by ambulance where she was found to have a collapsed lung, fractured ribs and possible spine injury. She remains in the hospital at this time.
Reports differ on how the accident happened. According to WESH 2 News, William Green was piloting the ferry and said he saw the smaller boat "traveling recklessly" toward him. It hit the ferry and he put his vessel into reverse. He saw the boat go under the ferry and come up again in front.
Michael Wormald has a different account. He was driving the boat and claims that the ferry backed out and he thought the ferry was going to move away from him and his wife. When he noticed it was coming straight at him, he tried to make a sharp right turn to get out of the way, but was unable to do so in time. He says the ferry "hit his wife and ran over the top of her, wedging her between the ferry and the small boat momentarily."
