Great pics, Mike! I especially like the one where you caught the fish jumping out of the water.

I wandered over to Disney's Animal Kingdom Park. It was a very cloudy day.

Here are the few pictures I'm going to post of attractions:

OK, now the rest of the pictures will be of animals or the landscape. That's all I came for this visit: to just walk around, enjoy the view of the lovely landscape and the animals.
