Fruit Inspection

Disney Oh Nine

Three days offline to prepare and 6 days offline to recover. Whew! I think we are relatively back to normal thank goodness. Laundry is caught up, emails replied to, food back in the pantry, mail opened, and bills paid.

(sigh)

We drove to Disney on pins and needles after my Expedition had “issues” just days before we left with the transmission, battery, tire pressure, etc. Nothing like 3 women and 2 kids getting stranded along the road in 90 degree weather on a Sunday afternoon. I didn’t even want to know what a tow truck would charge for that!

But here’s my mom and the kids when we so thankfully made it without any trouble. Jessica said, “I just want to get there. Who cares if we can get back?”

Amen, Sister!

We stayed at Port Orleans which had a total of 7 pools. SEVEN! That fares well with my kids who, when asked if they were ready to head to the Magic Kingdom and see Buzz Lightyear said, “No! Let’s go to the pool!”

Besides the pool, Emery’s other favorite Disney activity was riding the escalator at Epcot. Yes, that’s right, 2 things we can do right here in our very own hometown.

The trip was a lot of fun. I did feel bad for Jess having no one to ride the fast, scary rides with her. Some of the highlights include: Midway Mania, The Laugh Floor, Pirates of the Carribean, the pool, finding Lady (from Lady and the Tramp), Mickey Mouse waffles, Indiana Jones stunt show, Soarin’, sharks in the aquarium, the pool, and of course, the pool.

It was also fun to see our friends from Illinois while we were there. Thank you Nanny for taking us on such a special trip. I hope you enjoyed your first visit to DW, and maybe we’ll go back again when we can spend more time at the parks and less time in the pool!
