Day 4 Florida

By day 4 we were all feeling like this:
 So we decided to take a day and just hang at our condo! The place was so nice with multiple pools, water slides, lazy river... Playgrounds, miniature golf, and more!







Then that night we decided to go dine at downtown Disney, and get a look around. We ate at Planet Hollywood and hit up the Lego store and some other places!

Magic Kingdom

As if Animal Kingdom wasn't enough we also did Magic Kingdom that evening for the very merry Christmas party! Magic Kingdom was completely lit up and beautiful. We were able to get in 3 hours earlier and ride rides, walk around etc. It was perfect! We did the classic rides: tea cups, Dumbo, and a mini roller coaster called Barn Stormer. We also did Peter Pan with a minimal wait, unfortunately the one ride I really remember as a child, Small World, wasn't running. I was excited to show Naomi that one, oh well just means we have to go back!

The Christmas parade was beautiful and the park was so lit up it was amazing, there was even fake snow blowing during the parade!

Dumbo!


























This was from the Buzz Lightyear game where we had to shoot the bad guys... Naomi and I were VERY focused...

Animal Kingdom

After Sea World it was time to hit up another favorite of Naomi's- Animal Kingdom! While there we enjoyed a safari ride on a real safari truck and got up close and personal with many animals, we all loved it. From there we went to a bird show where Ellis fell off a bleacher and cracked his head open.. Blood grossness the whole nine yards, jeff took him to a first aid stop where they were going to send him to an urgent care for stitches. After the bird show I met up with them and we decided he was fine, just a decent cut but he was acting fine and crazy again so we called off the transport and went about our day!

Here are some photos from our day at animal kingdom:




































Naomi got to volunteer with Ike the parrot, and he would fly the recycling over to the trash can
