Two days following our visit at Magic Kingdom we spent the day at Hollywood Studios with my mom and dad. We enjoyed another beautiful sunny day in Florida and didn't waste a minute of opportunity to pack in all the character meet and greets, attractions and shows that we could before heading to the firework display (Fantasmic) that evening. This was the park that we actually got Bella in to see Mickey, Minnie and his buddies Donald and Daisy. (CHECK!)

Animal Kingdom & Epcot
This was the first time any of us had experienced Animal Kingdom, somehow it was always skipped when we would visit Disney when I was a child. It was a really neat park with lots to see and do. As recommended, we made sure we got to experience the Safari - it was the best part of the day.
Meeting Pocohantas
Last 2 of the Disney pals to meet - Pluto and Goofy

The Tree of Life
Meeting Elsa & Anna
Our day at Epcot started waiting at the gates at 8:15... Right at 9am we ran (with Bella in a stroller) all the way from the gates of the park to the country of Norway just so that we could get in line to meet Elsa and Anna where they were set up for meet and greets. As we got in line our wait was 2 hours and within thirty minutes the line had filled up and reached to the max wait time of 6 hours! We were so glad that we ran to get in line as this was the highlight of Bella's day... we just HAD to meet Elsa and Anna from her new favorite disney movie FROZEN. While we waited Louie and I took turns switching out of line and took Bella to look around and not stand in line so long. They had a neat replica of a church in "Norway" that had drawings, paintings, and costumes of the inspiration of the different characters in the movie. Once we finally got in the meet and greet room Bella was shy and a bit in shock of meeting the princesses. Once she got comfortable enough she asked them, "Do you wanna build a snowman?" and their reaction was priceless! (see video below). Such a sweet moment with the characters, I'll never forget her face.
Asking them, "Do you wanna build a snowman?"
