A very tired little boy
Harry sleeping. He wouldn’t wake up so we had some fun with him.
Orlando International Airport
Somehow we made it to the airport and through security. The 30 minute drive to the airport took almost 1 hour due to traffic. Harry slept most of the way. We were able to check our luggage at the resort which made navigating the airport a little easier. We also actually used all our dining plan credits. It was tough work but we did it. I don’t ever want to eat again, at least not steak.
Wilderness Lodge
Wilderness Lodge, where we went for dinner at the Whispering Canyon Cafe. Would have taken more pictures outside but it was raining. Would have taken some inside, but I was busy with a stir crazy toddler.
P! O! P!
These POP signs at the bus stop turned out to be great spelling practice for Harry. He knows the letters O and P so he gets all excited and points to them and says, “P! O! P!”
He also recognizes A, B, C, D, H, K, M, R, and Y, thanks mostly to Ben the Train on YouTube.
Magic Kingdom Bus Stop
Me at the bus stop at Magic Kingdom. Harry is really good at saying “bus”.
People Mover
Harry had a good time on the People Mover
Tomorrowland Speedway Photos
He can’t even see over the steering wheel

Lunch at Pinocchio Village Haus
Inside Pinocchio Village Haus, we ate lunch at a table overlooking the Small World ride. I had the Italian flatbread sub and Leanne and Harry had the Caprese flatbread pizza. Harry fell asleep on the walk there from Pirates of the Caribbean, but he woke up and had something to eat.
Harry enjoyed his flatbread pizza at Pinocchio Village Haus. Here he is saying hi to Grandma and Grandpa!
Dole Whip
Finally got my Dole Whip! Delicious, cool, creamy vanilla pineapple float hits the spot on a hot day like today.
I couldn’t convince Harry to take a bite. But then he’s never been a big fan of pineapple.
Letter practice
Harry has been practicing his letters, even while on vacation. When he looks out the bus window and sees the big POP sign outside our resort, he often points to it and names the letters. Besides O and P, he can recognize A, B, C, H, K, M, R, and Y. So he also likes to point to the sign above the baby change station in any public washroom when I change his diaper, and he’ll show me the B’s and A and Y in BABY. Yes, this has been a very educational trip!
Gran Fiesta Tour
The line for the Mexican boat ride was finally back to normal. No wait. So we went on it. Harry kept calling out for Donald the whole ride.
Canadian Pavilion
We let Little Harry run around outside the Canadian Pavilion and Le Cellier to get some exercise.
Why I Love POP Century
Poor Little Harry
Harry had a little bit of a fever last night so we were up with him every few hours last night. He is fine now but we took the morning off to get some rest. We had a privacy sign on our door and when we eventually did leave our room we found a nice goodie bag of towels and soap. Harry was well enough to do a full lap around the World Showcase though later that day.
Art of Animation is almost a mirror image of Pop Century except is themed with the movies Cars, Little Mermaid and Nemo. We walked over for lunch.
