Florida Day 4: Disney World Hollywood Studios

On day four of our trip we checked out Disney World Hollywood Studios.  We were excited to see what shows we could catch, and what characters we could meet.



We stood in line for the Star Lord and Groot, being honest here that Groot was the only reason to stand in line, only to be disappointed that it was an electronic small, robot version of Groot and not the giant man in a costume version that I was picturing in my head.



But Jayme and The Man had a Star Lord induced dance off to see who was captain, in which The Man bailed and Jayme won.  So there was that.



And also, see who was brave enough to ride Tower of Terror, which, as it turns out, I was, but not gracefully by any means.  Our pictures, which we did not buy, shows me ctinging in fright and reaching for The Man in terror (apropos), while he had his hands up for some fun, and is looking at me with amusement.

Gracefully is not my style.



We found a lot of rain that afternoon again.  So much so, that it cancelled the India Jones Stunt Show while we were mid show.

But it cooled us off.

And the Rock and Roller Coaster with Aerosmith was far better than I had expected.


Cali slept on a sidewalk to be consistent.


And The Man found an Atat.

Florida Day 2: Disney World Magic Kingdom

After getting a solid night sleep, we were ready to hit another day at Disney World.  Day two brought us to the Magic Kingdom.

And this time no one threw up in the parking lot.




It's always a thrill to walk onto Disney Main first thing in the morning. 

It really is magical.







Jayme found her Monsters Inc, which was a pretty funny show.



And, of course, Toy Story.








The heat was setting in and Cali wasn't done sleeping everywhere.  She began early.



We ate frozen lemonades and waited in hot lines, and then wore ponchos (or not if they were ripped or lost) and walked in the 30 minutes of rain that was a token event the entire week we were there.

And we celebrated that Cas had graduated.


And caught our favorite rides that were similar to Disneyland.




Tayler and Cas took a turn sleeping instead of riding Splash Mountain.


And we stood in a really long line for the Seven Dwarfs Mine ride, which turned out to be totally worth it.











We didn't close the park down, but we did see the fireworks and did hop on Thunder Mountain in the dark one last time before we headed out to the store for the next day's food and some well earned sleep.
