We spent 1 day at Disney World- much to the chagrin of the Disney Co. that really wants you to spend 3 or 4 days there. We had a ball really! But there are so many
other fun things to do in FL. Like swim in the pool at the hotel that where we stayed! That was so fun. We got a great deal (off season) at a hotel that shuttled us in to Disney. We were dressed, had eaten, and were ready for the bus by 6:45 AM.
Here we are- ready for a big day!
The shuttle into the park-
We packed a lunch and snacks and went on rides and played and stood in lines (including getting succored into the hour long line to visit Ariel. We thought it was a ride. Luke was MAD. And Rachel had fallen asleep. Dang it). Wesley was ready to go "home" to the hotel by 5 or 6 pm that evening. I gently told him that we had spent a
lot of money to be there and that we would
never be going back again so we couldn't leave and we had to stay and have lots of fun. AND then we could go home. The kids did great in end. Rachel and Wyatt finally fell asleep by about 10 o'clock in the stroller and the older 3 kids got their second wind. When we left the park at ONE THIRTY AM we felt satisfied that we had gotten our money's worth! The kids were kind of excited that they had stayed up that late too! And we were all completely wiped out the next day.
The next day we slept in and then got up and swam in the pool again. After we checked out we went to the Orlando Science Center, a children's museum in downtown Orlando and had relaxing time (Jason and I wanted to crawl in the cave and take a nap). Awesome museum. I liked it almost as much as Disney.
