Disney Tales: An Unexpected Twirl

While we were at Epcot, a monsoon rolled in and we experienced the most intense drenching I've ever seen!  To get out of the flooded streets, and to give Katie a break from her paranoia of getting "trenchfoot," (she'd been studying WWI.), we decided to have some appetizers at about 4:00 at the restaurant in "Morocco."  Pardon the "dewy" faces in this picture...the humidy was 100%!

Those are some wet feet under that table!

Here is a picture of our repast.  Katie loved it.  I liked it.  Mom endured it.  Lily ate snacks from the backpack.

But then!  Out came the entertainment!  These guys (and gal) were right next to us...very entertaining!

You know...this chick has my admiration.  She was a little older...probably an ex-princess...but she still got out there and....

...ummm....jiggled...shook...you know...

The only problem was...

Lily was ENTRANCED!  She was awestruck!  She watched the whole 10 minute gig, or should I say jig, with utter concentration.  Then they left.  I was settling the bill when....

Grandma Marsha:  "Look!  Look at your daughter!!" giggle giggle.

Katie:  "I wish a hole would open up in this restaurant and swallow my mortified self.  I can't believe she's doing this...."

Me:  "What? What?"  Look over.

Out on the dance floor. 

 She had all the moves, if not all the...equipment!

 She was a natural...

So the good news is if becoming Ariel or Cinderella doesn't work out...

she's got options....

she can be a belly dancer in a Morrocan restaurant!!!

It's good to have options, I always say.
