In addition to Bella, we made many animal friends on our trip. As Dad and I were putting things away in the room on Day One, we heard the Bean exclaim, "Look who's here!" We came out to look, and there were two ducks who strolled over to our patio in search of food. I don't know if there is a tradition of feeding those ducks in Room 1139, but they came by like clockwork every morning we were there, along with the wild turkeys that have been a mainstay of time at the resort. By the end of our trip, the ducks were literally eating out of the Bean's hands. What you don't see any pictures of are of the next day, when Dad and the Bean decided to have a "duck party" in the room. Yes, as Mom was in the bathroom getting ready for the day, and the Moo was in brushing her teeth, Dad and the Bean opened up the screen door and invited the ducks in -- the ducks were only too happy to oblige! Mom heard the merriment, ran out, and had her first meltdown of the trip!! The Bean led the ducks out ("Come on, ladies, time to go!") with a trail of Cheezits. Also included in these shots is a picture that does not do justice to the MONSTER grasshoppers that were all over the place at the Shades of Green shuttle stop. This is was just one of the surprises we found going to Disney in June as opposed to February, as we usually do. The other main big surprise? Florida in June is, to quote Niel Simon, "Africa hot!"

Disney, Days One and Two: Animal Friends
In addition to Bella, we made many animal friends on our trip. As Dad and I were putting things away in the room on Day One, we heard the Bean exclaim, "Look who's here!"
