Dollywood - Day 1

Since Sam wasn't going to arrive until after lunch, we decided to go ahead and go to Dollywood this morning. One of the great things about staying at Dream More is the trolley that takes you from the hotel to the gates of Dollywood. And if you're a big fan of Daniel Tiger, riding the trolley is even more special!  We got everyone and the stroller onboard, and soon we were walking through the turnstiles of Dollywood!

Breakfast - and new Dream More sweatshirts

Trolley time!!

Handprint animals - instead of face painting

Waterfall sitting - there a lot of places to sit a spell here ...

One chose a zebra ...

While the other chose a blinged-out horse

The duckie ride - the operator sings the song as the kids go around.

And then the buzzy bee ride - with some random boy.

Part 2 - another random boy

We stopped for lunch at Aunt Granny's and headed back to the hotel to wait for Sam. The rest of the day was spent at the pool - it's inside but not exactly heated.  It was a great first day at Dollywood!!
