Trip to Epcot

This year, we went to Epcot at Walt Disney World for Alex's 6th birthday.
I thought I'd share some photos of our trip.
Enjoy!!

Meeting Stitch




Alex's favorite part of Epcot
It's in innoventions West, and you got to hold a flashlight and identify fire hazards. He thought it was too cool!


Such cool art at Epcot



The Seas












"Fish are friends, not food"












On the boat ride through the land, we saw this "Tomato Tree" I want one!!!










Part of Epcot is getting to play in the fountains








This is him now...TOTALLY goofy as often as possible. Eh...6 year olds.


We spent some extra time in the UK because Alex wanted to play "Kim Possible"
It was actually pretty cool, you got a cell phone with video capability and got "assignments" to complete. He LOVED it and actually was worried that someone would catch us, He had the phone to his ear pretending to talk on it when walking from one place to another, and hid behind bushes while getting the assignment information. So cute!
Here are some shots I got in and around the UK

St. Augustine Alligator Farm Rookery

I went to the St. Augustine Alligator Farm the other day to see what was going on in the Rookery. Oh my goodness, was I in for a treat! These are just a few of MANY images I love. I have millions of favorites.

This first shot this one isn't fabulous, except that I love that you can see the egg between momma Egret's feet, and the alligator on the banks behind her. For those of you who don't know, the "Alligator Farm", is actually a zoological garden. There is a huge natural swamp that they've built a boardwalk over. Hundreds of alligators live in the swamp, and every year, various wading birds flock to the area to use it as their breeding grounds. Both animals benefit. The alligators under the trees protect the wading birds from various predators like racoons, foxes, etc. The alligators, in turn, do occasionally get a snack of an mistaken egg, or baby bird who has fallen from the nest. Sad? Yes, but it's nature, and fortunately, it's not a common occurance.


Now, on to some of the better shots...
