Back at Dollywood, we actually left the park briefly. Why? Look on ...

bunnyhugger holds the loaf of cinnamon bread that we brought back to the car, there to have for breakfast the next day. It preserved extremely well considering we didn't have the heavy-duty thermal bag or ice or anything and the car was just out in the sun on a day, did I mention that was over 380 degrees Fahrenheit?
Little creek along the side of the parking lot as we went up to my car.
Back to the park! Here was a park photographer all set for people coming into, or back into, the park.
Nice little area in front of the Jukebox Junction, I think, and what I think is that same creek. I think there's a fish in there, or maybe just a deeper rock.
The Dolly Parton Experience isn't always highlighted with a sparkling light but it probably is. Sad to say we ran out of time and didn't experience more than this scene of it.
We sat down for dinner and a couple ducks were not bothered by our presence.
Here's a duck so unintimidated by bunnyhugger that they're grooming right there on the pavement.
And now on to the train! It was packed, unexpectedly, so bunnyhugger and I had to sit in different rows. But we both got window seats, at least.
So here we are, chugging along a bridge over one of the walkways. You can see the long wooden aqueduct from that buy-a-bag-of-ore thing amusement parks do.
On the other side, people get caught up in golden light for me.
A clearing in another bridge gives me the chance for some motion lines that seem to defy reason.
Huh, wonder what those people with the flock of Roombas are up to.
