Checking out robots at the RobotĀ Fair.
They look so little. Those are some big waves.
I am surprised he doesn’t walk into everything. Can’t get a book out of his hands.
You caught me. Here I am hiding in the plants.
Day 2.
We might be justĀ a wee bit excited about a Starbucks in Downtown Disney.
There is this awesome board that makes a chalk outline of what it sees (us), but also allows you to draw on it. Simultaneously, there is a small screen showing the scene inĀ Orlando that is doing the same there. You can make the small screen bigger and play with the people in the Orlando Starbucks. Too cool.
Do you see us? I am the one with the camera.
We really are at the front of the line at opening of California Adventure.
Those are my brave boys on California Screamin’.
More Toy Story Mania. We can not get enough.
Luigi’s Flying Tires. “Go right, go right.”
Have you had the Mickey shaped beignets? Delicious!
You can tell how good they are just by the mess.Ā
AĀ Lego store stop is always a must.

Trying the the award winning clam chowder at Pike Place Chowder. As much as he is obsessed with clams, clam chowder was not his thing.
No trip isĀ complete without a voyage into Starbucks – especially the First Starbucks.
Harry working on his summer reading list.
And that completesĀ our Seattle adventures.

Harry got to try on one of the masks.
The bold raccoon who tried to board our boat. Nice try.
