Day 3. Hollywood studios!

Day 3 we went to Hollywood studios. (as I've said before the Park I least adore. Disney could do so much more here!)

Anyway-We started the morning in a split up rush-Todd ran to Toy Story Mania to get Fastpasses and the rest of us in the grew went to sign Gavin (or little friend) up for Jedi Training.

Once we got the "have to before they run outs" done-it was off to meet some characters!



The kids have never seen "singing in the rain" and its featured 2x at Hollywood Studios so we had to add it to our "movies to watch this summer" list :)

 My girls weren't digging the annual "picture in front of the hat" this year.

 After some character meetings Gavin got to go to Jedi training! This was really fun to watch! He used his powers to "Stop The Force!" very fun! We had lunch! Then after that...we were HOT. So we hung out in the Animation place watching people take pictures with more characters.


 Then we got into the action---I love this picture of Daddy Byrd and baby boy byrd

 we made our annual stop at the Honey I Shrunk the kids play area! (find Chris)
 We rode some rides....and then headed to dinner at Hollywood Brown Derby. Let me explain. This has been my favorite restaurant. It now takes 2 dining credits. I knew my meal (the Cobb salad) was going to be $15.00. And the kids eat the chicken soup (under $5) so it was pointless for us to use table points for this. So we paid out of pocket. Well-Our server was the worst server we had in Disney world. He never came to check on us. We only got one refill in the 1.5 we were there. All-in-all it was a sad experience. (And that makes me so sad because I ADORE the brow derby!) but this trip it was at the bottom of the experience list.
(and yes-she was really asleep. This became a tradition for her at dinner...right after I ordered her food :)
