I started my Disney Album!

Well, today would have been a total wash..I've been a couch potato most of the day!! Slept in, did some much needed grocery shopping, then looked for some page kits to start my Disney album!

Here's my first layout for day 1.

Home Sweet Home

We made it back home safely, tired of course! Managed to unload a few things, but mostly catching up on mail and an early bedtime. The suitcase can wait until tomrrow. :)

Disney, Day 7

The last of our visits to Disney World ended with a later start and an entire day back at Epcot.

Disney, Day 6

We didn't have much time or energy yesterday to do everything we wanted in the Magic Kingdom, so we went back today and boy, what a difference! Much smaller crowd, way shorter (if any) wait times, weather was great.  We be-bopped around the park easily and never got stressed out at all. We even got to visit Aloha Isle a second time for an awesome Dole Pineapple Float. Yum.  Small World, Peter Pan's Flight and the Haunted Mansion were finally gotten to today - must sees!!!

When Magic Kingdom closed at 7, we ran over to Hollywood Studios and caught the Fantasia show we missed the other night. Well worth the extra trip!

Disney, Day 5

Today we finally hit the Magic Kingdom. Being Wednesday, it's the only day during the week when they hold the Cinderella's castle night show with the fireworks and Tinkerbell's flight. It was hot and very, very crowded - so much so that even the Disney folks weren't prepared for the crowd (46,000!) and kept the park open an extra hour to accomodate those unable to get on the rides.

Of course, Magic Kingdom is, well, Magic Kingdom.  No way can I post near the number of photos I took, but here are a few highlights of the day:

The most famous of all - Cinderella Castle

Disney, Day 4

Today we took the early bus to Animal Kingdom and did the Safari ride right away.  We caught the bird show, the river rapids ride and watched the 3D bug show inside the Tree of Life. That was too cute!

Disney, Day 3

Today, we attacked Hollywood Studios and had a blast. Weather was great, the backlot tour was fun as was everything else we did....the Tower of Terror rocked. Amanda did Rockin Rollercoaster several times; Fantasia was down (after we waited in line for over an hour - it came back up after we left) so we postponed that one.

Disney, Day 2

We visited Epcot today in spite of the threat of rain - and it turned out to be a beautiful day, with scattered bits of rain here and there. We bought Mickey ponchos and weathered the rain just fine - managed to be indoors for some activities during the worst of the showers.

Disney, Day 1

We arrived in Orlando tonight hoping to be able to spend some time in one of the parks...but it was absolutely pouring rain in buckets and it never stopped...so we went to Applebee's (attached to our hotel) and had dinner and cocktails and decided we will go to Epcot in the morning, rain or shine.
