What a fun 5 days Addy had this week as she attended Festival Disney with her choral group from school.  On day one, they drove from Georgia to Orlando with a pit stop for lunch at the Florida-Georgia line for lunch.  They stayed at the Pop Century Hotel, which gave them early entrance and late stay at the parks.  On day 2, they spent the day at Magic Kingdom and received the bad news that their choir director had COVID-19.  The search was on for help.  Everyone had a blast, as you can see in the photos.  The group comprised 6,7 and 8 graders from the choir and drama club.  Day 3 they could sleep in just a bit as they had a 11:45 performance call at Saratoga Springs. They knocked it out of the park with their piano player as the director and used a soundtrack for their music, which was difficult as the soundtrack was slightly different.  They received superior ratings. This is no surprise because they had worked so hard, and their choir teacher was amazing.  Then it was on to Epcot.  On day 4, they all got up super early to be there for the rope drop to go on the Rise of the Resistance ride, which is a part of the Star Wars section at Hollywood Studios.  The evening ended with awards which they won Best in Class, 1st place for their grade division -middle school, and their entry for soloist also first place.  On day 5, they traveled home.  Given that Addy can barely talk, she had a fun time.  I am so glad she could go with her group this year.
