Olympic Swimming is over and I think either Beach Volleyball or Men's Gymnastics is coming on next. I am getting really tired though and probably going to sleep soon.

Also right in front of him just out of the photo was one of his rival swimmer and he was dancing or shadow boxing. After the race was over Michael Phelps said he wasn't paying attention to his rival swimmer at all.

On the news tonight they said there was a height requirement but not an age. A woman who rode the slide many times in the morning was interviewed stated the harness was not working all morning on the front seat. The Park said they were unaware of that.

Yes, I have since read that there used to be an age requirement, but they removed it.

The kid was evidently riding with two unrelated women who sustained facial injuries. It sounds like the raft may have gone airborne.

Whatever the case, for the kid to die from a neck injury, you know that thing was not safe. And velcro harnesses? Of course they weren't working. Velcro only works so many times. Poor design. The park is not going to come out of this looking good.

Well, I enjoyed Jungle Book. Not enough to see it again, but it was pretty good given the short turnaround time they had. Obviously not up to Fantasmic standards, but still enjoyable. Excited to see them get Rivers of Light together.

What I really enjoyed was how much of the musical performance was live. The majority of the performance musically was live.

And we were able to hop on EE before closing once more.

Details are not confirmed as of yet, but it looks like my father will have to fly back Wednesday, go to the funeral, scheduled for Thursday, and rejoin us on Thursday night or Friday. My stepgrandmother was very understanding about the rest of us staying down here. I just feel bad for my dad having to go home and come back. The only good thing is that my aunt from SC was up, so she's just staying a few extra days.

27 days until Labor Day.

My night vision is really good, so that may have something to do with it too. We saw a good bit, and the male lion was super active. We even heard him vocalizing. There were also elephants, so I was happy.

Elephants - good.
My night vision - non existent.

Sorry about your grandpa. ((Hugs))

Elephants are fantastic. Always.
Be aware that AK is pretty dark at night. It's probably the darkest out of any of the four parks at night.

Sorry about your grandpa. ((Hugs))

Thank you.
