A Whole New Look

Finally its done.  The Trails has a whole new look of its very own and some new functionality as well.

BKDesign handled the Template and Coding for me and did an amazing job.  I’ve always wanted a design that was mine from the very first moment that I set up this site so was never completely happy with my mangled efforts of creating the templates myself, imagine me shuddering right now, or the free templates available since every Tom, John and Jane on the web not so surprisingly has the same templates.  He also handled the coding for the site and fixed up a lot of things for me, including the mapping function, video page and gallery.  While I’ve had those things for awhile they were not working all that well particularly the map thing!

I will not bother breaking the last few days down.  Lets just say we had fun running around being big kids in Disneyland for a couple of days and one day at Universal Studios.  We even had a view of Disneyland from our hotel room which was nice and of course the hotel was nice too.  Being the last few nights we though that was a given.

It was sad really it was our last day in New York.  Our last day with Lil and Es with only a few more days of holidays left and work beckoning just over the horizon.  It took a little bit to get moving after the night at the theatre and first thing we had to do was make sure we were packed and ready to go.  Once that was done we wandered into Manhattan once more meeting up with Es.

Today we went to Coney Island just because we could and because we really hadn’t been there before.  Plans were hatched and Lil, Lou and I headed out and tackled the trains on the subway heading in towards Manhattan.  After a couple of dashes from one train to the next we were given strict instructions from Lil to watch out at the next station for Es.  If we did see her then we needed to get her attention and make sure she got on the train.  If we didn’t then we needed to make a hasty exit from said train then cool our heals and wait for Es to join us.

Some Days Things Do Not Work

Today was one of those days where we though we might as well have stayed at home since nothing went quite right for most of the day.  First up things went ok, we managed to get another ticket for Mama Mia!  This time for Es and thankfully it was right next to us which was lucky.  We decided to go see the Green Lady but on making our was there we found the queue was 2 hour plus just to get tickets.  After a brief consultation we decided we were not going to queue for over two hours just to get on a ferry and see the Green Lady a little closer.  Particularly since we’d already seen it.
