DISNEY 2010!!!
If you've seen my siblings blogs, you might have noticed that they went to Disney World. Well, yes, we went to. It was an interesting/fun experience for us. It's the first time that I've been to a theme park with my kids. Sure we've been to the Zoo and to little things like that, but never a week long, day after day resort experience.
I would say it took the first day and a half to figure out how to have fun. The first night, by the time we got to the parks, it was freezing cold, we were hungry and it was getting late. Not a good way to start things out. The second day, we were a bit cranky, but lunch tipped me over the limit. Lets just say, Elizabeth almost died, and I ended up with my pants being saturated with apple juice. By the end of the second day, however, we were all having fun. The third day was pretty fun, for those of you who like the Magic Kingdom over EPCOT... :-) Thursday was a bit hard again, it's hard to sit and watch show after show at Hollywood Studios with little kids. Then Friday was again pretty awesome, we went back to the Magic Kingdom and hung out with family. It was a bit wet, but it was lots of fun. Saturday was hard, but we wanted to get to the Animal Kingdom and ride Expedition Everest before we left. Zach even went on the scary dinosaur ride. I thought for sure he was going to be mentally affected from that ride, but he went with his cousins, who loved it, so he followed in suit. Thanks cousins!
In all, we won't return until our youngest is at least 40" tall. That way, no one gets left out of the majority of the fun. It seemed that if you were that hight, which Zach was, thankfully, you can do almost everything. For now, we'll stick with Disney Land and other more affordable/little kid oriented places. Don't get me wrong, however, in all we definitely had a blast and would do it again if the opportunity presented itself. For now, we just want to find a house and not go anywhere for a while.
