It's Monday and this was going to be our fullest and most fun day of the trip. We stated off heading for the Contemporary and breakfast at the Concourse Steak House. This must be one of Disney's "Hidden Jewels". Breakfast was fabulous and I'd go back in a heartbeat. The a short boat ride to The Wilderness Campground. Our purpose was a trail ride but wanted to get there to poke about as we had never been. We rocked in rocking chairs on the porch of Crockett's Tavern writting postcards and enjoying the beautful day, then went over to the Petting Zoo and finally took the bus to where ever to check in. It's a shame how much tree damage the grounds had sustained but it was still rustic and beautiful. We chatted for awhile with the gardner at the Butterfly Garden and then it was ride time. There were only 3 of us riding, me, Joe and a little girl from Germany who spoke no English so we had the full attention of the CM's. This was Joe's first time on a horse and he loved it. I guess they weren't very busy that day because they took us out to close to 1 1/2/ hrs. The bus took us to the TTC and we off to ECOT to see our 2 favorite groups and have a cold one as it was getting very hot. After that we strolled over to France to watch the acrobats and wander through the perfum shops. Buy this time I don't know what hurt worse my knees or my butt. It had been a long time since I sat a horse. We decided to rest and cool off in Impressions de France. I'll bet it's been 12 or 13 years since we saw it so it was fun........ To be continued
