Florida- Part 2- Downtown Disney

Orlando was SOOOO much better than Cocoa Beach- the hotel was gorgeous and the atmosphere was more entertaining! It was helping to make up for the fact we were not going to see a space launch. We went swimming at the hotel- great warm water & sunny FL weather! The girls loved it! Then we hit Walmart of all places. We picked up a few "cheap" Disney souvenirs so our wallets wouldn't feel so light once we got to the real Disney stores.....

The indoor pics are the toy stores- they turned a little dark but it was so neat inside the stores themselves with all the attention to detail & decor. It was entertainment just walking around. Here is the princess store with the Bippity-bobbity boutique!

The girls are mesmerized after being sprinkled with pixie dust & given a magical wish! They were sparkly from head to toe...




The happy couple- how cute!!

We ate at the T-Rex for dinner. Just like the rain forest cafe but with dinosaurs. Expensive but entertaining. The girls got to dig for fossils while we waited for our table- pretty neat!



Downtown Disney surrounds a big lagoon that has all kinds of Disney water transportation to the different resorts. This dragon was in front of the Lego store & is made entirely out of Legos!! They had a lot more lego statues but this was the only one in the water. The tail goes out further than the picture shows.



Inside the Disney Pin store....




This cute castle was a mix & match dress up area that the girls LOVED!! You could spend a small fortune!



Hats are everywhere....


We headed back to the hotel- girls crying because they wanted to buy everything!!! We needed a good nights sleep for our BIG day tomorrow.......
