Yesterday was the last day at Disney for the kids. So after we dropped them off, Joyce and I went back to camp and did chores.
The sun was out and it was a warm beautiful day so we sat outside and relaxed. Our neighbors stopped over for a while and the campground had a market day so we took that in.
Today the kids got out of bed at 10:30. It rained last night but the clouds are moving out and it's clearing. Not sure where we are going but we'll see!

Day 2 At Disney
Day 2 we went to Disney studio (formerly MGM).
I wanted to go on the Tower Of Terror with the kids but Joyce was afraid I wouldn't make it through the ride.
The kids went their way and we went ours for the day. This was the old streets of NY movie set.
We even ran into Herbie the Love Bug.
We took in the stunt show which was excellent!
The cars were racing everywhere and spinning around, these guys were good!
And it all ended in a fiery crash.
We then strolled the streets and came across this nice fountain with Miss Piggy as the center piece.
That's Buzz up there keeping an eye on things in the street.
After being at Disney all day we went to dinner at a local CiCi's Pizza. The pizza is set out buffet style and you help yourself to what ever you want. They also have a salad bar and dessert.
The guys pigged out on different varieties of pizza.
I think Jess like the macaroni the best, yuk!
That's enough for today.

Disney Day 1
We made reservations for Casey to spend the day at Best Friends Pet Care.
We were concerned about leaving her for the day but she loved the place.
She got to run and play in the play yard.
She went totally nuts after being cooped up in the coach.
They even had a small swimming pool that she spent most of her time in.
Disney is only a couple of miles from the pet center so we got here early.
The kids are really haveing a great time.........
And so are we!
We did 98% of the rides and the Haunted Mansion is one of our favorites. The park was really crowded and most of the wait times were 60 - 90 minutes. The majority of the people seemed to either be from Brazil, Puerto Rico, and Japan. The ratio of americans was low.
The Mansion
As night fell, the lights came on.
The castle was realoly pretty in shade of blue.

Enjoying the Weather
We took the kids to the Magic Kingdom this morning and let them go. Joyce and I had a few chores to do and we came back to camp to relax.
We have been keeping in touch with the kids and are getting reports as to what rides they have been on.
Tomorrow we will drop Casey at the dog resort where she will have a room with her own TV so she can watch the Animal channel. They also have a play area complete with water jets squirting from the ground.
We got lucky with our campground, Sherwood Forest. This is a Passport America campground but the discount isn't suppose to apply during the time we are here. When Joyce called to make reservations, they gave her the discount price, Life Is Good!
