Fun will be had by all at the Campfire Sing-along!!
This was one of the highlights for our kids!!...okay...there were lots of highlights throughout the ten days...but this was at the top.
And let me remind you that this is still Day 1 (I'm moving a bit slow, aren't I?)
After dinner in the cabin, the crew jumped on the golf cart and headed to the campfire area which is near the Meadow Trading Post. The Sing-along started at 7:30...but they arrived really, really, really early!!!
Where in the world are all the people??!! This is Memorial Day Weekend??!!
As y'all read through my TR...you will soon realize that I'm a little over the top when it comes to 'early'!
Oh look!....There are some people now...they had the same great idea that we did! Ma Hopie and Jesse are patiently waiting for Chip n Dale.
Here they come....Chip n Dale!!!!!!!
In all seriousness...if you want some one-on-one interaction time with the characters, early is best! Chip n Dale literally played with the children...hula hoops, sidewalk chalk, etc.....super neat!
We weren't sure if DS9 would enjoy this event, but everyone was pleasantly surprised...he loved it!!!!!
As the evening proceeded, more children arrived and they started a dance-along.
The only drawback (which is really not a drawback) is that when DS4 and DD5 saw other characters throughout the week, they expected them to do the same thing...play, dance, etc!
It was finally time for the marshmallow roast!!! By this time, the kids were a little munchy! You can purchase the Marshmallow kit at the Meadows Trading Post for $8.50 per kit. This does not include the sticks...sticks are $.49 a piece. The kit was enough for our 3 children for BOTH nights.
Lots of interaction for the children before Chip n Dale came back out for the Sing-along!
I wonder how they got 1st row seat???? Must have been there really early
Finally, they are back out on stage and it's time to sing!!!!!!
After the Sing-along, it was time for the movie...they waited for just a bit...the movie of the night was Tarzan.
The kids watched the movie for a little while, but were super tired...so they headed back to the cabin! Dad made the comment that it was sooooo very nice to be able to jump back on the golf cart and not have to wait for a bus...I think they told us that numerous times
This experience is definitely something that children will enjoy...and best of all...it's FREE!!!!
Did y'all get that??? FREE!!!
Stay tuned....Up next...Day 2 at Fort Wilderness Campgrounds with tons of pics!!!!!!
