So, before the Dinosaur ride, we rode the Triceratops ride where you sit in them and they go around in a circle and up and down like the Dumbo ride. After the Dinosaur ride, we rode what I think was called Primeval Whirl. Tyler laughed the whole time during that one, it was great!
We saw the Finding Nemo show, rode Mt. Everest, the Safari ride, saw the Bugs' Life show inside the Tree of Life (which I thought was AWESOME except when Tyler screamed at the spiders dropping down on us), and Tyler, Bethany, Heather & Tom rode the water ride. It looked kind of fun, but I don't like getting soaked on rides, never have like that kind of ride. So I wandered around and relaxed while they waited in line and did the ride. I caught then on video at the end of the ride, just a short video clip, I'll post it maybe tomorrow.
In one of the stores, I discovered all the Mickey kitchen items available to buy! I decided right then and there that I want to redo my whole kitchen with Mickey things. I was just so tickled to see it all! I bought the Mickey head cookie cutter, measuring cups and measuring spoons. Yes, I know, I don't cook, but I think having Mickey all over my kitchen would make me want to start cooking!
We left AK and headed to Ci-Ci's Pizza for supper and back to the Vistana for bingo (just me & Heather) and then to swim (me & Heather joined Tom, Bethany & Tyler who started swimming when we went to bingo). This place is amazing! It has 7 pools! We've only used one so far, but will explore more later. I'm amazed by how beautiful it is here, how nice everybody is, and how many activities are available all day every day. It feels a lot like being on the Disney cruise! They have kids activities, family activities, adult activities, watching movies on a big screen at the pool, etc. The only thing missing is all the characters.

Probably not now though......too tired. 
I'm pretty sure I'll take them up on that and just lounge around under palm trees, reading a book, and swimming all day, maybe play bingo too! 
What's really cool is that Tyler hasn't had a single meltdown yet! But this is his first vacation since before he was on meds, so it's certainly interesting to see what a difference those meds are making. Of course, he definitely had lots and lots of crabby moments, but I did too because of how hot and tired I was. I notice him licking things and sucking his thumb, starting yesterday, but if that's as bad as it gets, for such a major change in his routine, I'm find with that! He's really having such a great time! He deserved a vacation, so it's great to see him giggling and laughing and smiling so much! (Not much of that in the heat today, but in the air-conditioned parts of our day I saw lots of smiles. 
but Olivia love any RIDES!! She was with me and Ian on Calofornia Adventure big rides... Oh I was so scared!! she love it want go back WE SAID NOOOOOOOOOO...... that was on big smile rollercoaster... phew....
