"There's nothin' behind it..."



....that's the joke for our trip to Walt Disney World during the wettest May in Florida HISTORY!  What an honor to be a part of record breaking weather patterns.....but I digress.  

We keep looking at the weather map, and trying to figure out when the wet stuff is going to go away.  Everytime we say, "there's nothin' else behind this shower...."

Well, you get the picture.

As I type, it's coming one of the worst downpours we've seen all week.  We actually had a nice morning at Hollywood Studios, and ducked out just in time.  A quick trip to Wal-mart for some new ponchos (yes, we've gone through the cheap ones I brought, plus 6 expensive Disney ones)....I wasn't going to pay $30 dollars for more expensive rain gear, and now we're back at the lovely Wilderness Lodge for an afternoon break.  We are looking forward to an evening at Ohana's Restaurant and then plan to head over to the Magic Kingdom for the parade and fireworks.  I'm praying this storm blows through and that there really isn't anything else behind it!

Doesn't look promising, but we've changed our expectations.  As long as we don't have lightening and thunder, it's a good day.  We are used to being wet and stinky by now! 

Wanna see all the fun we had yesterday (cause we really are having a good time)....

Breakfast at Chef Mickey's

and then a dip in the pool...

Some sunshine at Hollywood Studios....

followed by a grand yes, wet finale at Fantasmic!
(which Lucy did not enjoy.....too scary for her)
