After months and months of planning, we finally went to Disney World. We left Thursday evening and flew thru the night, arriving in Orlando very early Friday morning. I was trying to surprise Jayden with our resort, the Disney All-Star Sports Resort. I was hoping he wouldn't realize we were staying there until we pulled up. But...he saw our luggage tags at the Redmond airport and spoiled the surprise. He was very excited.
When we arrived in Orlando, we took the Disney's Magical Express (bus) to our resort, checked in, got some breakfast (Mickey shaped waffles) and jumped on a bus to the Magic Kingdom.
I signed us up for the Disney dinning plan, which included one snack, one quick service meal and one table service meal each per day. That was the best decision ever. We ate wonderfully everyday and never had to worry about how much it cost. Several of our meals totalled over $100. We usually bought breakfast at the resort, has a quick lunch and an afternoon snack at the park and dinners were all very special. I made reservations 5 months before the trip so we could eat at the best restaurants.
Trin and I found these really BIG pickles!
One of Jay's favorite rides (so far), Splash Mountain. This was his favorite when we went to Disneyland two years ago. Other favorites that we had to ride: Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, Pirates of the Caribbean, Space Mountain, Jungle Cruise and Haunted Mansion. They had a new attraction, Stitch's Great Escape. Hated it!
My little Jack Sparrow.
la cucaracha, la cucaracha...did you know that means the cockroach?
I'll be back
For dinner on day 1, we ate at Cinderella's Royal Table. We entered in the back of the castle and met Cinderella for pictures and climbed the very royal staircase to the dinning room. It had beautiful cathedral ceilings and stained glass windows. The food was was amazing and we were surprised by the mice and the Fairy God Mother who sang to us at dinner.
I love this picture of the Fairy God Mother singing to Trinity. We all sang along with her as she sang Bibbty Boppity Bo.
After dinner we saw a new 4D show, Mickey's Philharmagic. It was wonderful. Visually amazing and you feel the wind and even get sprayed w/ water. Then we went on It's a Small World, it was torture for Jayden. But Trin and I love it! Then is was time for fireworks! And I believe we squeezed in a few more rides on Splash Mnt.
