Relaxing morning today. Swimming and then
breakfast at Artist Palettes. The food was good. I was impressed. We are relaxing now. On our way to Animal Kingdom around noon and then Sanaa for dinner at 7.

We swam at the Congress park this morning and thought of you. No one was there for an hour. Just amazing. View attachment 165021

That quiet pool at Congress Park, early in the morning when no one is there, is just bliss. Hope you get the chance to try the other pools too. I think the kids will enjoy the water slide at tha Paddock pool and the splash area at the Grandstand pool. The main pool is nice too, but gets crowded quicker than the others. So many pools, so little time.

Wednesday and Saturday are chill days so we will definitely be doing some pool hopping! As always, thanks so much for your advice.

Chill days are our favorite. Actually just about all our days are chill days. Have a great day at AK. FoTLK is a must see. Hope you enjoy Sanaa as much as we do. It is good for adventurous eaters.

Give it just a little time and it will be on the hour and half hour with a snack in between.

Ha! I admire those who can pull off a live...me even with adult children I could not pull off live. Heck back a week and photo's are still not uploaded. Life. But boy it was an amazing family vacation. With our kids in college over the last decade someone was always missing or I went solo to meet up with a CP kid. All fun but this one was kinda special. Enjoy now as it only becomes more complicated as it goes on.

I second that! I give props to those who can do live trip reports. I couldn't. I'd get too overwhelmed with trying to catch everything in real time and then wind up not really experiencing what is around me. I have to remind myself to take more pictures sometimes so I can't imagine also live blogging too!
