Indiana Jones stunt people showed us how they did their movie stunts. They used 3 different sets and rolled them back out of the way.

It was a good show. The line was short and we got to sit down. Win-Win.

The Magic Kingdom.
The little girls had on their Elsa costumes from the movie Frozen. DG1 wore a Stitch costume from the movie LILO and Stitch.

We watched a show of characters from animated movies.

The Elsa character spotted the little girls and blew them kisses.

A mosaic of tiny pieces of tile that created a beautiful piece down to the tiniest detail.

We left the park around 2PM, went and had a late lunch-early supper, back to Air B&B house for a nap, then back to the park. DD got us a 4 bedroom 4 bath big roomy house with the 2 car garage as a game room full of stuff like a pool table and other things to play.

A swimming pool with the screen house that every pool in Florida has to keep the hordes of mosquitoes from sucking people dry. It was too cold to play in the pool, we were too tired anyway. LOL

A 2500 square foot home in a nice neighborhood where homes sell for 550 thousand and up. A couple bought it to retire to, in the meantime they have a management company renting it out. 6 nights cost $750. DD said about the same as a couple of cramped hotel rooms.

We went back to the park and took a ferry from the parking lot to the park. Security to go through, then scan card and fingerprint to get in.

We rode some rides, then got a place to stand for the fireworks show.

Next day, we took a day to slouch around and not do much. We went to a few off site Disney souvenir shops. I bought a Mickey Mouse mug for $8, half price from being in the park. We needed that day of rest!

Last day, we went to Animal Kingdom. It was a slower pace, more relaxed and not a mad rush for the next ride.

Dad provided transportation.

We rode an open bus through the Savanna, 110 acres. The “road” was concrete, but simulated as a muddy dirt, rough road, bouncy and rutted. Some of the animals were kept behind a moat, don’t want to feed anybody to the lions.

After that, we went on a train ride with a stop at a petting zoo. Girls made a beeline for the goats. I sure hope @Mini Horses and @frustratedearthmother don’t see this or they may take a vacation to my farm and surprise me with a couple of goats!

We went to another roller coaster ride to the top of Mount Everest. DG3 and I sat that one out. I got some pictures of the Baobob tree. It is entirely man made by Disney Imagineers. There are all sorts of animals molded into the trunk, the more you look the more you see. The leaves are all singularly attached. The whole thing looks so real! It’s on an island, wish I could have got closer. Probably 20 million people wish that too and that’s why it’s on an island.

We went to the Avatar section. There was a 40 minute wait for the boat ride, according to the app DD had. It lied. A tour group beat us to it, it wound up being 2 hours of stand, shuffle forward 3 feet, stand, lock knees, stand some more and some more after that. All that for a 5 minute ride. Yes, we are crazy.

Before we left, there was less than a 10 minute wait for personal time with Minnie and Mickey.
