Day 21: Christmas Vacation (pt 5)

Animal Kingdom~

Zenia's favorite was Animal Kingdom. Zander was not a fan of the safari and characters, but Zenia was wildly fascinated by all the animals and nature (and Pandora).

Hollywood Studios~

Bucky would never forget their time in Hollywood Studios, mostly because of the cute gay zombie he chatted up in the line of the Tower of Terror, who he sat next to and even held hands with. However, while Bucky was feeling rather confident sitting next to and flirting with the rather handsome zombie, it all went away at the first drop.

At the end of the ride, the boy assured Bucky it was okay as the cheerleader shook with fear. Although the memory of it embarrassed him, he felt content knowing the zombie put his arm around him to comfort him, and that he got a number, and even got a text later that night asking if he was alright.

Epcot~

Zed's personal favorite was Epcot because Bucky took the kids on all the boring futuristic rides while Zed took his wife on a world tour. They did all the stereotypical things one did in each of these countries—consumed several glasses of "Parisian" wine in France, as they pretended they could not buy the same wines at the grocery store for half the price, ate burritos from a stand in the Mexico pavilion before both looking up from their meals, making eye contact, then running for the restrooms, and even taking super cute photos with the phone booths in England.

(Zander would say Epcot was his favorite all because of 'Soarin' around the world'.)

Magic Kingdom~

They took the most pictures at Magic Kingdom. The rides and the characters and the castle had the kids mesmerized. They saw the parade and went on classics (Zed couldn't get over Fantasyland and "it's a small world"). They even had dinner at Cinderella's Royal Table, and got to witness the Christmas Day parade.

Addison favorite part wasn't any of the theme parks or rides, though. Sure, she loved the smiles on her kids' faces and all the memories they made, the souvenirs they got and the pictures they posed for. She loved drinking around the world with her husband and watching Bucky fail at flirting with Zek.

Her favorite part was the night before they left, when they all cuddled on the living room floor, watching Christmas movies.

It was a pretty great vacation.
