Magic Kingdom Day 1


For our Fall Break this year we got to go the Happiest Place on Earth!! (Well, at least for some of the time it is.) We flew to Orlando, where we rented a car and stayed in a condo just a few miles from Disney World. The plane ride was great. It is always my biggest source of stress. I had a lot of anxiety before we left because I just didn't know what to expect, as this was our first trip here. One thing I will say about Disney is they make it very easy for you. From the parking, to the maps, to the lines, it is very, very easy to maneuver. Our only real mistake the first day was staying a little too long. We ended up being there open to close because we got stuck in the electrical parade and couldn't make it out. But the kids did great anyway!



When you first park your car, you have to take a ferry boat or the monorail to get the actually park. We decided to try the ferry boat just for fun the first day. We used the monorail after that.

The Wicked Step Sisters--One of my personal favorites.

We had many character sightings. Because it wasn't terribly busy there, we were able to get a bunch of character pictures. Here is us with Mary Poppins

Evan found the sword in the stone and almost had it!



A couple weeks before we went on our trip we watched the original Swiss Family Robinson on TV, so it was super exciting to go in the real treehouse!

Even though this picture is a little blurry, this was Emersyn's favorite "ride." I think I rode it with her at least 10 times. It was just a little ride that took you all through Tomorrow Land over the top of all the rides. She LOVED it!

Everybody must be getting tired. No more pictures Mom!!
