Camping





We decided not to try to camp at Disney's Fort Wilderness. It was too cold and we did not want to buy lots of equipment to try to do it. I did not know if it was even possible. We did go to register and get our ID cards. They told us they could assign us a place without electricity or we could wait a day and get a spot with electricity. Since we were not going to sleep there we decided to wait. We went to a park and then went to the barbeque at night.

It was fun, they had lots of food for everybody in the group. There were Boy Scout troops from all over our area. We met some people from our pack and also people that knew Larry. They had a nice campfire and we stayed there for some time. We felt bad for the people that were going to stay the night. Lots of the tents were in a field without electricity. Some people had electricity so they had brought heaters. We left and stayed at the condo. Ours was rented so we stayed at the one on the third floor. Very nice and warm!

The next day we went to see everybody and they assigned us a spot so we set the tent just to say we had camped :-) Everybody kept telling us we were cheating! We went to Animal Kingdom. Don and Carlos took a tour with the other kids and parents and Titi and I were on our own. We came back to cook dinner for our pack. They gave us lots of chicken, ribs, mashed potatoes, green beans, baked beans, brownies, etc. It was very good. They kids loved playing in the dark woods with the other kids.
The following day we went again and stayed for a short time (to eat) and then went to Magic Kingdom by boat. When we came back the had finished eating dinner but we got some food from another pack and then had cake with ours. We decided to take the tent down so we would not have to come back early the next day.
