Disney was crowded beyond anything I have ever seen with wait times into 2 and 3 hours. But Cindy had reservations done a long time ago for food, we hit the parks when they opened, got one or two rides we wanted, then a couple more when the wait times slowed and still enjoyed the time but it is taxing. The heat, the crowds, the walking, (averaged 6.7 miles for the park days), the standing, the heat, the noise, the crowds and the long walk to the car at the end of the day. Many people pay extra on top of the steep prices to get on a couple more rides and spend less time in lines but I do not like that system, unreasonable to me. One day they charged $30 for that privilege, each person. Disney has other fairer systems but this is the one they choo$e. Campground is still an amazing place, the evenings are great, cool off quickly this time of year, and most folks you encounter are very nice.

We head north in a couple of days and will spend 10 days along the Gulf in Florida’s panhandle at three state parks and a couple of Harvest Hosts before we are off to Texas. Lots to photograph still to come.
