Disney World Day 1, 2, and 3

Well, I am out in Disney World with my family right now and we have been having a blast. So far, we have been to Epcot and the Magic Kingdom and today, we are going to go back to the Magic Kingdom for more magic. I am gonna try and post something on here everyday, kind of give you as much of a running commentary as I can. But we will see how well that goes.

My parents were going to get me an itouch for Christmas but couldn't find one that was a good deal and so they just got one for me before we left. So most of these posts will be from the memo pad from  that. Maybe I will get a Flicker account so that I can put up pictures for all of you to see, but that won't be until I get back.

Day 1
We made it out yesterday. The flights were fine and not very bumpy at all. It was good to just spend time with the rents. We got here first and went to go and get our tickets from the super nice hotel that we are going to be staying at on Monday. We went to get settled in the hotel and then go and pick up Sarah, Willie, Skyler, and Bryce. When Skyler saw us he started to run for us and Bryce was close behind. The sad part is that while we were looking for the car because we forgot where we parked, Skyler biffed it hard. Face first onto the ground. So things started off a bit hard but maybe that will be the only one. We are headed off into Epcot now, should be a pretty good day. Soarin', Test Track, Mexican food, Mission Space,  and fireworks.


Day 2
Every Person Comes Out Tired (EPCOT) sure is true. I think all of our legs hurt by the end. Test Track sped us around while we flew over California with Kronk from The Emperor's New Groove on Soarin'. Leutant Dan from Forest Gump took us to Mars and we at really yummy Mexican food. Neither of the boys liked the big rides but they did like Turtle Talk with Crush. We traveled the world and saw many different place. I got to really test out my camera today with the firework show at the end of the night. Everyone went to get our spot for the show and I ran around for a while getting pictures for friends and I went on Test Track one last time with fastpasses that we didn't use. I found Germany and looked for a beer that one of my friends wanted me to find for him. I think the boys will like tomorrow better as they will be more adjusted to this time zone and we are going to the magic kingdom.


Day 3
Well, as much as it says that wishes come true at Disney World, it sure doesn't seem like it. So far, everywhere we have gone I can always hear a kid crying. It sure doesn't seem like it is all that magical after that. Today was a blast, I LOVE ROLLER COASTERS! We went on a ride where you drive a car that is on a track but you get to steer it around. Well, I put Bryce in the drivers seat with the steering wheel and all he did was let us bounce around and let the track guide us....never again, never again, never again. I think I have whip lash from it. We went on Space Mountain second and it was sooooooo much fun. The day just seemed to fly buy because by the time it was time to go, it seemed like we just got there. SO after Space Mountain, we went and shot aliens with  Buzz Lightyear and then went to be scared by some ghosts at the haunted Mansion. Then we had a cannon of a time with the Pirates on the Pirates of the Caribbean. Now that was all before Lunch. We left far a bit to  go check into our new, really nice hotel where I have m own room, the rents have there own room, and the sister and family have there own room. Well, the place had a water break the night before and so we couldn't check in but the kids got to go swimming for a while. We had dinner at one of my favorite places, Panerra Bread. Went back to the park and got to go onto the Big Thunder Mountain. When we were going to go onto Splash Mountain, it was broken and so we didn't get to do that but Sarah, Willie, Skyler and I tried to weave our way through the crowd that was trying to watch the light parade to get back to Space Mountain for two more rides, it was much fun.. We watch more fireworks and by this point, the boys were beat. We went home to sleep and when i hit the bed, I was out. The boys were out before we even got home.


Day 4
Soon to come...if I can remember it.

Sounds like you all are having a great time!!! Things r pretty normal here for a typical finals week. Everything that is, except for the weather. Yesterday was sunny and great. This evening, very large and wet snowflakes. I think it is beautiful, but I seemed to be the only 1 thrilled with it. Can't wait to see all the pictures from your trip. Keep having a blast!

It's nice to hear that you are having fun! I almost texted you yesterday when it started snowing but then I thought I would just let you have fun with your family. I hope you continue to have a good time and safe travels! I also want to see pictures when you get back.
