Disney, Day 2, Part 2---Hollywood Studios


Day two ended with the afternoon and dinner spent at Disney's Hollywood Studios (for the first time....we went back again later in the week!).  Julie made dinner reservations at the Sci-Fi
Dine-In Cafe----where you eat in fun little cars watching cheesy science fiction movies (think:  Attack of the 50 foot woman).  It was fun!
Everything at Hollywood studios was all-things Hollywood----even the rides!  All of the rides were gentle except the Star Wars Tour (Ellie got a bloody nose in it due to its motion).  Their favorite ride was the Toy Story ride where it's like you're in a huge computer game trying to rack up points while your car is moving through the set.  It was FUN!


The girls continued to get autographs:  Their favorite of the afternoon was "The Green Army Man" (which is exactly how he signed the books!). 
Above is a huge ant from the "Honey I Shrunk the Kids" set.

.....and a Storm Trooper (Ellie loves all things spacey/Star Wars-ish). 
One of the girl's favorite books and movie from last year was The Wizard of Oz so they were sooo happy to see this set on one of the rides.
Day two ended (at 10:30 pm!) with the Fantasmic Light Show.  Even though it was a late ending to a loooonnngg day, it was so worth it to stay for the show!  (Which pretty much sums up the whole vacation!)
