UnabridgedPod I will say (and should perhaps disclosed this in the post!) that we left a couple early to get to others....we definitely had to be strategic to get to some of our “must see”s. (edited) 6y

UnabridgedPod Oh, and I used Google Drawings to create the collage. 🙂 6y

tpixie @Unabridged I was wondering if you would have to leave early... I'll have to check out Google Drawings! 6y
