Part 9: Yeti or not, here we come! (chapter 5)
We are reaching the end of our Animal Kingdom day! My poor 4yo has been throwing up and we know the day will have to be cut short at this point. But we're still really hoping to hit our Tusker House reservation since it's already paid for and the rest of us were hungry!
Almost immediately after getting seated, we got to meet the mouse! It was our second time meeting him this trip.
Unfortunately, my 4yo was not up for the visit. After Mickey left, the kids and my husband went to get their dinner and my 4yo vomited again. Profusely.
Can I just add that I have never been more thankful that I brought sanitizing wipes with??
Most of the vomit went on the table. I cleaned it up swiftly. Ran us both to the bathroom to clean us up.
I think it happened another time but honestly I've lost track of it all. I've probably blocked it.
All I know is that while I was in the bathroom cleaning up my little guy, my daughter also had to go to the bathroom and we all missed out on this meet and greet with Daisy!
Finally, I got my 4yo settled back at the table and I was able to get some food for myself! I was starving!!!
When I got back, this had happened:
I'm sure he was exhausted!!
Then Donald stopped by for a visit...
And Goofy...
Soon we were wrapping up on dinner. We were trying to make it as short as possible! But my daughter was upset that she hadn't gotten to meet Daisy, so a cast member agreed to get her a meeting!
So that's about it for Tusker House! Everybody was fed, but I'll be honest that I have zero memory of any food I ate, if I enjoyed it, or if the character interactions were good. We actually have Tusker House booked for our upcoming trip at Christmas time and I am reeeeally hoping we can have a dinner with 4 healthy children and 2 healthy adults this time around!
Our 4yo settled into the stroller and we made our way out of the park. We had some extra snack credits so we stopped in a shop and got some cookies and other treats to bring with us, particularly things that my 4yo would be able to enjoy since he hadn't gotten to enjoy any yummy food that day! Since he was drowsy in the stroller and seemed content, we decided to peek at Pandora to see the floating island at night on our way out.
There was a cool band playing too at the time, with really fun music. I hope on a future trip to spend more time in Pandora at night! But this time around we just snapped some pictures and headed out.
And that brings us to the end of our Animal Kingdom day! I am very thankful that this was our last day of the trip. Also, despite how sick my little guy was, he wasn't upset or tearful or anything, just lethargic. He was able to enjoy the morning at the very least. And oddly enough, none of us caught anything from him so I honestly wonder if it was food poisoning or something.
Thanks for reading my trip so far!! I will be back to finish up the rest of our time in Florida!
