next stop to expo to pick up our half marathon (marissa, me and Jeff) and marathon (brian and jr) numbers and our goody bag!!!!





me and marissa at the expo!!!



getting our goody bag (back pack) and t-shirt
not too many goodies in the back pack, mostly ads for other marathons, a sharpie pen and various odds and ends. nothing that exciting.  the back pack was cute!!!



the expo
just a bunch of booths were they sold running stuff like shoes, clothes and anything a runner would need.  i thought it would be a lot bigger but was nice...




while waiting for our table at ohana, jr tried on his new look!!!!



some of the appetizers, very yummy



noodles and vegtables, sorry i didn't get photo's of the main course cause we were too hungry and forgot....




bread pudding with ice cream and carmel banana sauce.  omg!!!
it was the best part of the dinner and so good. take note to go
back to ohana again especially for the bread pudding....



after dinner we rode the monorail back to the magic kingdom and got the last bus back to our hotel... it was a great day!!!!!
