Fun at Walt Disney World


We finally made it to Walt Disney World on Sunday February 8,2009. We stayed in EPCOT the whole day and enjoyed lots of exhibits and rides, and countries too! Favorites were Soarin' (definitely awesome!), the eels at the Living Seas, Test Track, and a fun recycling game called "Don't Waste It!" was pretty humorous! Being a Weather Channel junkie, I made everyone go to the Severe Weather Replicator because Jim Cantore was doing the promo/introduction! There were lots of native birds including this juvenille White Ibis.



We saw several characters, including Mary Poppins. I couldn't resist this shot of Mary with an unknown Disney visitor!




The following day was dedicated to the Magic Kingdom and its parades and fireworks. Here's cousins Alyssa and Kathy on Aladdin's Magic Carpet flying high in the sky!



Below, in the center car, back seat, are Alyssa and Kathy (with her arm waving wildly!) on Big Thunder Mountain Railroad on our last day.











We spent most of a day in Animal Kingdom on rides and seeing a great musical "The Festival of the Lion King". Complete with tumbling monkeys, men on stilts, a man with a baton of fire, and fabulous vocal preformances! Was like a broadway play! We had a great time and it was absolutely wonderful to release my inner child again. Only at Disney can one go back to being 7 years old along with every other guest in the park!
