Great Day!!

I have to say that our day at Disney today was far better than we could have imagined. We went to the Animal Kingdom, and rode every ride possible, saw tons of animals, and a couple of shows. The Lion King show was excellent, right off Broadway, really impressive. The scariest ride was Mt. Everest, and I think Eliza will probably now never go on a roller-coaster again! It was pretty scary, but I loved every second of it! The definite highlight of the day was when we were asked to be in the Mickey Holiday parade. We were dressed up in costume and put on our own float! The parade was 45 minutes thru the park, with hundreds of people waving and taking our picture. We felt like celebrities, and by the end our cheeks were hurting from smiling for so long. Tyler said he couldn't do it again, but Liza said she could do it every day of her life! Tomorrow we are going to Magic Kingdom. Coincidentally, the Borduas family are here, so we look forward to meeting them and going on some rides. Check out our parade pictures below!! Guess who enjoyed it the most?
Grooming goats!
Check out the mouse ears in the wool!

The pictures are wonderful! What excitment! It looks as if Lex enjoyed it most!! What an amazing experience. Did you see the 3D insect movie? It felt as if the bugs were landing on you? Very clever! There were creepy feelings going up your legs too! Be sure to do the Haunted House tomorrow. I wonder if you're doing Epcot? If you do, be sure to take the ride up inside the globe. Also the Mexico pavilion and the Energy pavilion. You can have an English beer- or indeed a German one!! Have fun fun fun!!

Whew...something needs to be said about those outfits...but the expression on Tyler's face in the first picture says enough.

Not as jealous anymore....

Good thing you we won't see you for a while - because we might forget the choice words we're thinking right now.

Just kidding.....not really!! Still love you despite your lapse of judgement. But really, it looks like you all had a gay time.

Love Mt. Everest! That is the best coaster I've been on! I have to say I am very surprised you got John to go to Disney...thought that was a place he'd never take his kids! Things change when you're stuck in Charleston, huh? Gald you had a fun time- and those parade pictures are pretty funny too! martha
