Hollywood Studios

It was another full and fun day at Disney. We started early again, so that we could get the kids signed up for the Jedi Training Academy, which they have been hoping to do for weeks. We did manage to get them signed up, but when the time for the show came, it was raining buckets (not for the first or last time during the day), so they didn't get to go through with it. However, they were allowed a special photo op with Darth Vader and a couple of Storm Troopers, and they still got their official Jedi Certificates, which they certainly deserved for doing such a great job of just rolling with the punches.

Other fun things from the day included playing at the "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids" play area, watching the Indiana Jones stunt show, lunch at Pizza Planet (from the Toy Story movies), a stage performance of "Beauty and the Beast," a photo op with Lightening McQueen and Tow Mater, an amazing car stunt show, a Muppets Movie, lots of rides, another wonderful dinner buffet, and a short Little Mermaid show. We didn't leave the park until 8:45. And, when we got back to the resort, Jeff took the big kids to see the movie being shown out by the pool. That kind of fun doesn't come without a price, so we are all now completely exhausted and have made a plan to sleep in a bit in the morning.
