Sun, 13:10: Headed back towards safari ride in Africa, checking pin lanyards and the book at shop on the way. Pin selections pretty standard.
Sun, 13:14: Safari was on the poor side but not horrible. Best new sighting for me was black antelope lying in tall grass a couple of feet from road.
Sun, 13:22: Pizzafari breakfast. Tried new croissant breakfast sandwhich, multigrain w egg whites, provolone, spinach, chutney.
Sun, 13:30: Egg whites in precooked circular patties which slip out either end of sandwich. Difficult eating, but tastes good.
Sun, 13:31: Breakfast potatoes in cheesy circular croquette are very good, much better than cubed home fries.
Sun, 13:33: K got croissant w no chutney, they left off spinach unintentionally. Took a very long time to get special order out--they did warn her.
Sun, 13:34: Off to catch Lion King show in new theater.
Sun, 14:42: Rain poncho for Duffy bear costs more than human version. :) http://t.co/piOzCDb3HU
Sun, 17:18: Headed fr AK to outlet mall, bought a few pins there, then to resort for snacks in lounge.
Sun, 17:34: Flatbread in lounge is lavash. I really like it and the kalamata hummus together.

Sun, 19:57: Chatted w concierge in club lounge about Feb trip possibilities then to room for down time. Plan: at 3, pin trade on way to boat to Studios.
Sun, 19:58: At 3 pm it's pouring rain w thunder. Decide an afternoon nap is appropriate.
Sun, 19:59: Looks to rain all evening, will go on to Studios for Frozen singalong and dinner, see if fireworks happen.
Sun, 21:00: Bus to Hollywood Studios, boats not running due to lightning threat. Bus A/C cranked to frigid.
Sun, 21:03: Pin traded thru stores avoiding light rain, then to Toy Story Midway Mania for FP. I got 147,500, K 192,700.
Sun, 21:14: Checked out Frozen store again. More merchandise than August, and wow, you can walk freely in store--crowds are way lower.
Sun, 21:17: To ice skating area: pair performance to start in 5 min. Great timing.
Sun, 21:35: Headed to Frozen sing along, have FP+ for 6:00 show
Sun, 22:54: Raining as we come out of show, go into Muppets shop to stay dry, rain gets harder.
Sun, 23:17: They haven't cancelled fireworks yet...we'll see. Meanwhile we have a dinner reservation at 50s Prime Time Cafe.

Sun, 23:20: Got here 30 min early, snagged seats at bar and ordered iced tea. Took about 15 min for table to be ready.
Mon, 01:44: Very good meal, fried chicken for me, Mom's sampler for K. Decided we didn't want to stand around in the rain for fireworks, headed out.
Mon, 01:49: Stopped at Guest Services for pin book and ask if boats are running. Earnest cast member said boats not running but we spotted boat at dock
Mon, 01:51: Hot fudge sundaes at Beaches and Cream were too much to pass up on way to room, got to hear fireworks at Studios as we ate.
Mon, 11:25: Grabbed coffee to go fr lounge, off to bus to MK. We're having breakfast in the castle.
Mon, 11:30: Planned plenty of time for bus to take a while to come, stop at other resorts, etc--none of that happened. We're so early....
