Our last day at the parks was actually quite relaxing. It's nice when you get to the point in your trip where you've checked all your "must do's" off your list and you can just enjoy the parks for lack of a better word. We got to sleep in, I got to go for a longer run, and life was good. The girls got an invitation from Sofia this morning to have lunch with them at Hollywood and Vine. They were totally floored!

We started our morning at the Animal Kingdom. I'm not really a huge fan of the AK, but I also think it's important to make an appearance while we're there. I do love Expedition Everest afterall! :) Mom and I rode the roller coaster while Jovan and the girls rode Kali River Rapids. We met Pocahontas, did a little dancing in Africa, and went to the Bug's Life show. After that we made our way to HS for lunch with Sofia and gang!

| You would think with all the technology Disney has that they could figure out how to photoshop out the large construction vehicle in the background, but oh well! |

The Play and Dine lunch at Hollywood and Vine was great! We will do this one again! The girls loved the food and loved getting to dance and play while they ate!
I had heard about this drawing class they offered at Hollywood Studios, and I knew our little artist would love it. Turns out there are a lot of little artists out there who want to take this class, and the line proves to get quite long. Like most things "Disney" you are definitely looking at a 30 minute wait unless you time it perfectly...and even then you're not always guaranteed into that class. I waited in line for the class though while Nana and Lainey went and rode rides. Lainey & I took the class then while Nana shopped. There were 52 of us artists, and we learned how to draw Minnie's face. Apparently you never know what you are going to learn to draw. It is based on the animation artist that is teaching the class and on what the class votes to draw. This was a great experience, and we will definitely be doing this again!

| This was my favorite part of the Dining Plan--my snack credit being used wisely on a venti iced coffee from Starbucks each day, ha! |
Jovan & Lainey would go back at night to do the Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom challenge, so they went back on the last night as well to see how many cards they could get. I believe this will be a repeat activity on our next trip! Such a great thing for these two nerds to do together, ha!
Yet again, another ridiculously successful day at Disney, but this was about the time when my depression was about to kick in knowing it was coming to a close. #thestruggleisreal 😩
