Disney Day #2

On Sunday, we went to Hollywood Studios right when it opened - around 9am... but to get to the park by 9am, one has to catch the Disney Bus around 8:20!  It was worth it though - very pretty day and not very crowded at that hour.  We were able to walk on to everything - highlights of the day included a live, stage version of "Beauty & the Beast" for Kyra, Star Tours for Henry & Brad (twice) and Toy Story Mania for me.

For lunch, we dined with Leo/June from Little Einsteins as well as JoJo & Goliath.  Characters meals are so great - no waiting in lines for autographs - I think I liked that more than the kids did!




Kyra especially loved when they would dance and she willingly got up to dance with Goliath... but I think it was because she was rather interested in his feet!!  Every time the kids met a character, they would hit their shoes.  That's odd right?





First thing a character does, is give the kids a hug.  It's really cute!



By the time lunch was over, it had gotten really hot outside and the park got packed!  I mean insane amounts of people... but Brad really wanted to see "Lights, Camera, Action" so we rushed to make that show and then headed back to the hotel.  

We took a boat ride to Downtown Disney that night - very cool, but also insanely crowded!!  After we ate and did a little shopping, we caught the boat back to the hotel.  Both kids passed out cold on the boat ride back... people thought that was so cute, but I gotta tell you - it is NOT fun lugging 30+ lbs of dead weight out of a boat, over a river and up 2 flights of stairs!!
