Day 121 (9 Apr 10 part 10): A Bug’s Land

At last, the last post of the day!

All the (good) guys from A Bug’s Life!

It was getting on in the evening, so many of the photos are a bit dark, or flashed.

Heimlich in his candy corn field!

They had these great benches for people: tractor seats on leaf springs!

It has sadly been a while since I have seen A Bug’s Life, so I don’t recall all of the names…

…a forthright and pleasant gentleman; a bit skinny, however…

But I do recall this Lady Bug is…a dude…<<grin>>

There are lots of fun things to do here on a hot day, but it wasn’t and we didn’t want to get wet.

The fuzzy idiot with his hands up in the middle of the photo decided to try to jump into the next one I was trying to take of Nana and Toots under the straw.  I didn’t waste the electrons to have him in another photo.

I decided to collect bug lights!

Four at once!

Eskimoes!!!

Heimlich’s Chew Chew is a fun little ride.  As a roller coaster it might be tame (total rise…four feet?  On a good day?) but you get to see, hear, feel, and smell, like a bug does (at least a Disney Bug).  Pretty neat for a three year old of any age!!!  I have video but they are all too big to post here.  (This thing has SEAT BELTS!  Litigation has gone too far.)

Before we left A Bug’s Land there was one more ride that Toots and I wanted to come back for, but we didn’t make it.  Look closely at what the different parts are made from.  I want to ride in the Casey Jr. Cookie box!

Sound.  For a cartoon.  What will they think of next?

Nana and Toots by the “I” in Cal-ee-forn-I-aaa…

And here is the loading area for the tram, right in front of the Disney Store.  What a coincidence!  Note the lights in all of the trees.  This place is festive, even without a holiday.

So ends our day in the Magic Kingdom.  Tomorrow we will take a break (and have fewer posts!) while check out Escondido, La Jolla and San Diego for a breather.  Beach, seals and zoo, coming up!
