We went to all four Disney parks over five consecutive days. It was fun, and exhausting. Mama was a champion; walking countless miles, and pushing Ozzie in the stroller for most of it. It was nice not to have to wake up to an alarm today. I still woke up at 7:00 (6:00 Central). I guess it was nice knowing that I didn't HAVE to wake up to an alarm today.
I had a Disney Dining Plan quick meal left, and I walked to the resort snack shack and got a breakfast bowl with a biscuit and gravy over potatoes and eggs. I walked back to the room and braved the possible alligators and snakes and ate breakfast on the patio. It was good, and being able to just take my time, and enjoy the morning in the Florida sunshine made it the best meal I ate all week.
High temp was 90 today. We were getting texts and seeing Facebook posts about the weather at home as we dressed for the pool. 18+ inches was falling in MN while this was us:

We had dinner reservations at a dinosaur-themed restaurant called T. Rex in Disney Springs (Downtown Disney). There was a ferry boat that ran from our resort to Disney Springs. We took the ferry, and the driver of the boat couldn't have been more of a prick. I didn't see his name tag, but I'm sure his name was Dick.
Disney Springs is a large shopping complex/island with a bunch of restaurants too. T. Rex was obnoxiously loud with its ambient restaurant chatter mixed with constant piped-in dinosaur roars. It was also so dark inside that I used the light on my phone to read the menu. After eating such large portions all week, we each only ordered French onion soup for dinner. It was very good. We were all out of gas at the end of this long week.
There was a Lego store right next to T. Rex that we took Ozzie through. At 4-years-old he puts together Lego sets for 7+.
Ozzie and I left the girls to shop, and caught the ferry back to the room. Dick picked us up and took us back, honking the boat's horn every few seconds. We passed other boats that were transporting people that weren't honking their horns.
Ozzie fell asleep in my bed, and I packed my bags while checking our Sun Country morning flight to see if it was delayed or cancelled as snow still fell at home. I could feel sun burn setting in where the sunscreen washed off in the pool.
When they got back (they got a different boat driver who was nice as pie) I told them that our flight was still listed as 'on time.' We had to catch our shuttle at 5:00. Megan said "if they cancel the flight, we can sleep in." We didn't learn about the Sun Country-Mexico cancellations until we were home.
