Freezing cold today, especially this morning.
None of us were really dressed for it. We would have had to have on turtlenecks, sweaters, pants, winter jackets and snow boots, plus mittens and hats to stay warm. I am not even kidding.
Everyone is all up in arms about this nonsense, the weather here in not-so-sunny Florida.
Julia had a really fun day. She likes Epcot. She did really well on the rides, she thought the Nemo one was super cool.
Some of her high points at Epcot were running away from us and also going under the metal barriers and ropes and coming back again. Oh and the stroller parking! She thinks that is the best thing ever. RIDE!! She yells, and thinks she can just have her pick of other people's strollers to play with. When we exited the Dinosaur ride, she said "Riiiiide, Riiiiide" and found our red double stroller really quickly in the line of at least thirty strollers.
We spent a good chunk of time waiting in line for autographs from the "big" characters, they were all in one room, so we met them all. It was super cool to see Julia dancing with Goofy and giving Donald Duck a smooch and hugging Mickey and Minnie Mouse.
TJ was loving getting autographs from them, although he did become a little obsessed with finding Daisy Duck, after I told him we were not stopping to get her autograph in a big line in the shade. Too cold for this Mama. "DAISYYYYYYYYYYYYY, WHERE ARE YOU???" he would just start yelling out at random times. "I bet she died." he decides at one point. I tell him I would bet him one million dollars that she is not dead.
After the character breakfast (Mary Poppins, Alice in Wonderland, Mad Hatter, Pooh Bear and Tigger), we head over to Epcot on the monorail and saw Spaceship Earth (the ride inside of the iconic big giant silver ball); Universe of Energy (Ellen Degeneres and dinosaurs - 45 minutes long); Seas with Nemo and Friends; Turtle Talk with Crush.Didn't really do the countries, but we did eat sushi in Japan.
TJ was obsessed with this really cool outdoor train display. He wouldn't leave it for about an hour.
