    The Downtown Disney bus stops at Kidani after Jambo. There's also a van to transport folks from one side to the other - inquire at Bell Services.

But, youngest dd is sitting on the princess 'throne' in the beach club singing bingo was his name-o 'working it out'. Let's see how long this takes

    Not a drop of rain. Its 7:51 and dd1 and I are holding our spot for Illuminations. The best spot is to the left of the duufy the bear shop. Stand right next to the hanicap reserved area and its the best view... right under a giant tiki torch.

    Only a brief misty sprinkle midway during Illuminations. Rain ended by the time we got to the parking lot. They say its supposed to storm overnight but, nothing yet. All the animals are walking the savannah in our backyard w/o a care in the world. Wouldn't they be inside or running in zigzag patterns or something?

    Momma giraffe and bayb just passed us w a zbra not too far behind. A toast with my Australlian Moscato in a red plastic cup to the giraffe family... and their trusty sidekick mr. Zebra

    Until the morning... DHS day

    It rained overnight sometime but, nothing right now. But, thick muggy air at the moment. Just went ouside on the balcony and the animal keepers are setting food out for the animals right in front of our window. So animals are still ou.

    I guess we will brave the elements this morning at dhs until the high winds com this evening. We've got our trust ponchos. Well, trusty that we have had them for 4 years and never used them until last night
