On Day Three of our vacation, we visited Typhoon Lagoon, one of the two Disney water parks.

G and Wowo with Lagoona Gator |

Poor, poor Chip |
|
What in the world could have made such an interesting trail? |
|
Why, it's G! During the rain, when the attractions closed, the adults huddled under shelters while G found two other kids to play with in the sand. The one on the right is Phil, and he's British. |
|
Making a sand angel. The rain didn't slow him down one bit! |
|
Getting ready to swim in the coral reef with SCUBA tanks |
|
I made her hold my hand until I stopped being terrified. Yes, there were sharks and sting rays, but it was the fish that freak me out! |
|
We all got caught! |
That evening, we arrived back "home" to find a beautiful sunset. We spent the next day lounging around the lodge.
|
Beautiful sunset over the savanna |
|
Ping-pong at the Kidani Village pool at our resort |
|
A drum lesson in the Sunset Savanna Lounge |
|
The most giraffes (three) we had at our feeder at once, along with a zebra grazing in the background |
|
Big Boy checks in for his second evening in Simba's Cubhouse |
|
On our date at Sanaa restaurant, a giraffe wandered by the window. Our room is in the building you can see across the savanna. |
|
Happy to have some alone time on Saturday night with fantastic food and great scenery at Sanaa. |
|
The entry to Kidani Village had this beautiful candelabra, along with the quote, "One who goes back to his home does not consider the night too dark. He knows his way. --Uganda". We think it is beautiful. |
|
The three of us played Pictureka in one of the lobby sections... |
|
while G watched Disney cartoons with lots of other kids in an adjacent section. |
|
We played Human Pictureka in the lobby on the bridge: can you spot a Chipster? |
|
Always ladylike, Laura sips her Chenin Blanc by the pool |
|
At the Animal Kingdom Lodge, even the drains around the pool are decorated to look like pretty suns |
|
Typical camera face in front of our room |
On Sunday, we went to Downtown Disney to see if Disney Quest, the indoor interactive gaming center, looked like fun. It was so hot, and since one of us couldn't interact with much of anything due to a pregnancy complication, we decided to ditch Downtown and head for Blizzard Beach.
|
Of course, we had to visit the Lego store. Chip made this guy in the play area and ended up buying him and two others, since you can only buy your own minifigures in multiples of three. Mainly, he just wanted the hair for Luke Skywalker. |
|
G found the most creative "hidden Mickey" of the trip - in the floor mat at the exit of the Lego store. |
|
One of G's favorite places on Earth, if not THE favorite |
|
Think we used enough sunscreen on top? |
|
Nothing says "hot summer day" like a sleigh ride in your bathing suit!
|
Two more days of vacation photos to come. Stay tuned!
