Disney World pics

We went to Disney World in the October and it was phenomenal.  I want to live there!  We went with our friends, the Willets, who were great company.  I hate taking time away from the fun by taking pictures, so I was lucky Jason and Eric snapped a few.  These first pics are from Animal Kingdom  The way they have decorated each section of the Animal Kingdom is exceptional.  You really feel like you are in a different country, especially the Tibet area.



After the Kali River Rapids. They're not kidding when they say "You WILL get wet on this ride."  My walking shoes were so soaked, I ended buying a pair of sandals to wear for the rest of the day.


Max loved this snake, though he doesn't look it in the shot.

The train ride turned out to be totally boring, but it was nice to get off our feet for a while.

Magic Kingdom!

That's me in the lead.  I was in charge of the daily agenda and I pretty much dragged everyone around the parks like a 16 year old who never got to be a kid. The first night we were there, I took David and Mallory to the night show Fantasmic, and I actually teared up a little because I was so excited. 





Epcot Center.  This fine lady was a candy artist.  Very cool to watch her whip out these animals in seconds.

The very last thing we did before we left Epcot was the ride in Spaceship Earth.  We were pleasantly surprised at how cool it was, especially the ending. No spoilers, though. 


One of the few pics we took from Hollywood Studios, but the kids had an awesome time there.





Holly actually didn't wiggle during It's a Small World, an exception to her usual behavior.

The kids loves the Buzz Light year ride where you got to shoot a laser gun and earn points. 

In line at the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.  This was Max's favorite ride by far.  He went on it over and over again, with his hands in the air and a big smile.

I loved Tom Sawyer Island!  What a great place to relax and explore with Holly while the big kids did their stuff.

We absolutely loved staying at the All-Star Music Resort.  The perks were awesome!
