Kirsti *had* to go to Orlando for work, and we decided to make it a fun trip with the kids, and both Grandmas. We flew out of Seattle early on the morning of Friday the 10th, and arrived in Orlando around dinner time. The next morning Kirsti had to attend a meeting, which wasn't too bad as we had decided to keep the girls on west coast time allowing us to eat meals in the off hours. After the girls woke and were dressed, both Grandmas, the girls, and I went into the Magic Kingdom for the start of our first full day. We developed a bit of a schedule, returning to the hotel in the later evening after eating dinner in the park. After the return trip though, we would put our swimming suits on, and swim for an hour or so in the hotel pool, not returning to the room until about 11pm local time. In addition to that schedule, we also created a bit of a habit. On more than one night, as the kids were being tucked in, someone was raiding the hotel gift shop for wine and chocolate. On our last full day we went to the Animal Kingdom, having never been there before. The weather up until this point had been nice, if a little warm. This last day the clouds starting rolling in, and at one point the path ways were under serious water - with 95% of the people in the park headed for the exits. | |||
 It had just started to rain. Every one of us had similiar thoughts at this point - that Disney is sure amazing, look at how they have made this artificial rain on this safari! |
 The rain never stopped. |

 It would 'pause' for a few moments though. |

 A baby giraffe. That, or all those documentaries I watched as a kid were full of baloney, and giraffes are really quite small. |
