Today’s weather was a repeat of Saturday. I don’t think you can ask for better Florida Summer days. It was a sunny day with below average temperature and humidity.

This evening I returned to Disney Springs determined to hang around for the first drone show of the night. The drone show is at 9PM. They start to let you into the prime viewing area at 8PM. It is a long hour long wait in ever increasing crowds.

I arrived at Disney’s shopping and entertainment district shortly after 7PM. I wandered through the various shops looking at all of the Disney Halloween merchandise. For the theme park giant, halloween begins in the middle of August. People seem to believe in that, but I just want to enjoy summer. In addition to wandering the shops I got a hot fudge sundae for desert.

Soon it was time to join the masses heading for the viewing area. I was in a different, slightly less ideal, viewing location for this show. I had a better view on my first visit in June. This will be my last visit. The show ends on September 2nd. It is fun pure drone show. The drones outline all kinds of characters from the Disney catalog. The don’t add fountains, projections or lasers to enhance the show.
