We survived Disney World and have a great time. Our trip started out a little
rough as a huge snow storm hit on the day we were to leave. We boarded our plane being told, "so far there is just a little snow on the runways and we can take off once they get the runway plowed." SEVEN hours later we were on our way. As miserable as that was, the kids were great. We did have the option of exiting the plane if we needed to, so that was nice. We
were very thankful to be on the plane, as the terminal was jammed with the entire airport being closed. Anyway, we made it to Orlando, but unfortunately lost our first day of swimming and lounging :( Monday we headed to Disney Hollywood Studios (formerly MGM Studios). This was fun, but mainly shows to watch and very few rides. The kids liked it for the most part, but kept asking, "when are we going to ride something!" I don't know that I will return here on our nex
t trip. Tuesday and Wednesday we went to Magic Kingdom. This was just great. The boys loved it and we had a magical time!! (barf!, I know, but it is true!) I convinced (forced!) A to ride Splash Mountain. Though he didn't like the last plunge, he did like the rest of it and it is the one ride he brags t
o everyone about riding. We all loved Buzz Lightyears's spin ride and we rode it 3 times! On Thursday we went to Epcot. I love Epcot, but it isn't the most exciting for kids. I ended up leaving a little early that day with C and F as they were about spent on waiting in lines. F ended up going down for a nap at 4:00pm and never woke up the entire night. That boy was worn out!! Friday we went to Animal Kingdom. This has a great Safari ride which is so realistic. We left after lunch to get some good pool time in before leav
ing town! We stayed at Port Orleans Riverside resort, which is abosolutely gorgeous!! We loved the whole atmosphere. The rooms are nothing spectacular, but very nice. The only downfall was the long bus rides to all the parks. I think the next time we will plan to be at a monorail resort to decrease travel time from resort to park. Anyway, the whole trip was great and exhausting. We tried to take advantage of every minutes and the kids had a wonderful time. A was throughoughly depressed last night because he wanted to move to Florida!! We are already planning our next trip to Mickey!
