Down to Disney World

When Trish and I were camping in Florida in January, we left the Airstream in Orlando instead of pulling it back home.  This was all part of a plan: when we finished the St. Simons Island Storytelling Festival this past weekend, we were less than four hours from Disney World.  Since Fort Wilderness is one of our favorite campgrounds, we came on back down  here for the week.

As soon as we got to our campsite we were visited by three very healthy and very large wild turkeys. We are right beside a little creek and this seems to be where they come to get water.  They are quiet and tame and nice to have around.

As soon as we unhooked the car, the turkeys came calling.


After that we headed over to the Magic Kingdom for a little visit and a wonderful dinner at Citrico’s at the Grand Floridian.  Since it was Presidents’ Day Weekend, we finally figured out why the crowds were larger than we had expected.

Yesterday was our first EPCOT day and today was Animal Kingdom.  The weather is splendid: in the eighties in the daytime and down to the sixties at night.  It’s a great time to be here and chase the coldness of winter away.
