There's No Sleep Like Disney Sleep : Day 2, Segway Day!

[LisaS]

Great report! Glad you enjoyed the Segway tour and managed to avoid the bees.

We were there the second week of May and we toured Minnie's Butterfly Garden, too. I saw something there I had never seen before -- baby caterpillars! On a couple of the plants there were these yellow and black striped caterpillars in varying stages of life from very tiny (maybe 1/8 of an inch long?), to small to midsize to fully grown (about 3 inches long?). If another couple had not pointed out the tiny ones to me, I never would have noticed them.

What a great report. You have a talent for writing these reports!! Can't wait to read day 3. . . . Off I go . . . .

Just read yesterdays vacation log and noticed your need for Tamarind Sauce. Well, last year after eating at AK's Boma restaurant, we requested the recipe. Our server took our email address and sent it to us. I just searched it in my files and here it is. I'm sure it's the same as Jiko's. Enjoy!
