Friday, February 25, 2022 – A No Park Day

On our fourth day of out vacation, we planned what we called a “chill day”. We decided that we would not visit any of the theme parks and just take it easy for the day and do some light shopping. We started out the day by sleeping in a little bit (no 6am wake up!!!). […]
