The Poprik's Go to Disney - Part 5 Typhoon Lagoon

On Wednesday we decided to take a mid-week break from the parks and have a relaxing day at Typhoon Lagoon. We started off with a ride around the lazy river and then Ashley and David took of for some of the big kid slides. I stayed with Alan and Rowan at the wave pool and kids areas.

Floating in Castaway Creek



The wave pool has incredibly large and srtong waves that would knock Alan and Rowan over even in just a few inches of water, so they sepent most of their time playing in a shower. Rowan was having an AWESOME time!


David and Ashley met up with us and pointed out Ketchakiddee Creek. This was a great play are with water cannons and a kid sized tube slide. They basically spent the rest of the day in there.










At lunch time we grabbed our lunch bag and floated over to the shark tank area for a picnic lunch.





While we were eating David surprised Ashley by telling her that she was going to get to scuba dive in the shark tank. There is an overturned ship in the middle of the tank and on one side you can snorkel across the tank, but the other side has a a place to rent scuba gear and you get to dive in the tank for 20 minutes!



Hanging out on the rock in the tank after she found a hidden Mickey with some new baby fish by it.






Posing for a picture before Ashley and I went off to do some slides and David hung out with the kids at Ketchakidee Creek.




We ended our day at Typhoon Lagoon with another float in Castaway Creek. The park closed while we were in the water so we had to get out and walk a bit to get to our locker.  While David was getting our stuff, Stitch showed up.  Alan  took the opportunity to give him a hug and get a picture.


Ashley was getting a bit tired of her brother and sister at this point. LOL


We took advantage of the early day and went to our last character dinner at Grand Floridian and Cinderella's Happily Ever After Banquet. and got ready for the next day at Animal Kingdom.
