Hakuna Matata
Yep folks, Disney World is sinking into my pores. I’m so full of Disney spirit that I could just…….just……burst. Why, who couldn’t love $10 candy apples or character dining to the tune of $60/person?! By golly, if I see another $5 chocolate covered frozen banana, I’ll go crazy with excitement. What in the world do the apples have over the bananas anyway? Apples dipped in caramel are twice as expensive as bananas in chocolate?! And did I mention the parking? It is $17/day, that’s right folks, head on down to Disney AFTER paying $300/per person (that covers 4 theme parks) and you gotta cough over another $17/A DAY to park there.
My husband and I have decided that it would be cheaper for us to buy a house down the street from where I’m staying for $20k and take up residency. Heck, that would save us a ton in Disney World park fees. I think I know why Disney loves the phrase “Hakuna Matata”. Because after we get done paying all this money, they have no worries for the rest of their days! All joking aside, I honestly don’t know who can afford to come to this most magical place on earth anymore. As it is, the girls and I are brown bagging one meal a day.
Animal Kingdoms activity book
Alright, alright enough of my rant. Someone has to pay for all this magic floating around over here. We went over to Animal Kingdom yesterday. They have a new program where you can collect sticker badges after you complete an activity. For those of you who have been to Epcot, it’s similar to the passport book. You buy a passport and the kids can get them stamped and add stickers to it. The only difference is the activity book is free. The girls really enjoyed doing the activities and learned quiet a bit about animals, heck, I even learned a thing or two.
It started raining around 6ish tonight and I can hear the pitter patter on the fiberglass roof from time to time. We’re planning to finish up the activities we didn’t complete at Animal Kingdom tomorrow. However, if the weather doesn’t cooperate then we may hang out here. Florida storms usually follow the ‘dump and run’ scenario. They dump some rain and disappear fairly quickly. So I’m not too concerned. In closing let me just say, at WDW, stay away from the apples, the bananas are cheaper.
