Disney Part 3

We ended our Disney adventure with a trip to Hollywood studios.  Daddy and Lulu were both looking forward to this park. It’s the home of STAR WARS, Indiana Jones, and Toy Story Land!  There was a hurricane wreaking havoc on the gulf coast during our trip. We were VERY lucky we didn’t get too much rain, but our last day we did get a bit more.  It worked out though. We were “stuck” in Andy’s backyard and waited out the storm and rain while waiting to hop on Slinky Dog. Cora and Lulu colored and even took a power nap. Hey, there are worst places to be stuck in Disney. We were very fortunate.

Lulu loved the coasters 

Cora even liked this one. 


The Frozen sing along show didn’t disappoint. The SNOW was a big hit with both girls!

We ended our trip with a dinner at Disney Springs at Raglan Road.  This is an Irish Pub on the property where they had live music and Irish step dancers. The girls really enjoyed the entertainment and even joined in from the sidelines.

That wraps up our Disney 2018 adventure.  We had so much fun, and made lots of memories. We can’t wait to do it again (hopefully soon). ;)

Disney 2018 Part 2

Daddy was really excited for Animal Kingdom. It has the Pandora Land, and Avatar rides.  We were lucky enough to have a fast pass for the Nav’i river ride which was just incredible.  The attention to detail is what you would expect from Disney.  I didn’t get any pictures inside, because I was completely wrapped up in the awe of it all.   The girls were really excited about the Kilimanjaro Safari. This is a jeep ride straight through the Savannah Disney style. We saw hippos, LIONS, Giraffes, we saw just about every African animal you can imagine.  It was a cool morning so the animals were really out and active which was awesome. 

We ended our Animal Kingdom day with a Finding Nemo stage show. This Broadway caliber show was a big hit with all 4 of us.  As a performer I am just astounded that they do a whole musical in 30 minutes and do it 6-8 times a day. Each show with the same level of professionalism and energy. Very
 neat!  

 

 

 

 
Tuesday we headed back to Epcot to see a few things, and take a trip around the world.  This was the same day as our Halloween Party so we kept the morning light so we could rest before our big nighttime bash. We hopped on the Frozen Ever After ride, and spaceship earth rides, and we even took a trip to outer space.   Epcot is underrated in my opinion. It has so many fun education things for the kids and the trip around the world for mom and dad is a blast. 









The Mickey’s NOT so spooky Halloween party was so much fun. Our princesses dressed up and we dined like royalty inside Cinderella’s Castle just as the firework show started. It was MAGICAL!   The girls got to see all their princess favorites again, and even meet a few more.  Lulu was able to conquer a mountain of her own SPACE mountain!  We found dance parties, rides, princesses, and treats galore. We even shutdown the park at midnight.  We were TIRED, but man it was worth it.
