Disney World/Gatorland Trip

We are back from our vacation, and we had a great time! We went to Disney World three days and ventured to Gatorland (Orlando's finest half-day attraction) for a morning. We had pretty good weather, although it did rain on our last evening at the Magic Kingdom. Some notable things from the trip: Madelyn became unsure of rides that "tickled her tummy." She refused to ride Splash Mountain, but we did convince her to ride Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. Pierce has an uncanny ability to see elephants everywhere he goes. You'd be amazed how many elephants are around Disney World. We were able to see Mr. and Mrs. Incredible at Hollywood Studios. It was like Pierce was meeting rock stars. He couldn't take his eyes off of them. He refered to them as Mr. Incredible and the mommy. I commented to JD that his is how he views us--JD = Mr. Incredible; Me=mommy. Gatorland was pretty interesting and the kids had a good time. Being surrounded by hundreds of alligators, even when you know you're safe, can be unnerving. They also had 4 or 5 white alligators that were found in Louisiana. Those were pretty cool looking.

Here's a slide show of our trip (Click on the show to see a larger version.):
