Shane and i went to Disney World for our 6 year anniversary/graduation gift to ourselves. This is our second time to go together and it was just as fun as the first time. I went a couple times as a kid, BUT this place is always just as magical as the FIRST time. We had an absolute BLAST!!! tons of fun. We went from the 12-16, which seems like little time, BUT we were ready to go home on the 16th. It was a perfect short vacation. The weather was PERFECT the entire time. I couldn't have asked for better weather. I didn't take my DSLR camera. A few times i wish that i did have it, but it was nice to not have to haul around that big thing all day everyday. :) We took a little point and shoot that we've had for years. Let's just say, It got the job done. Here are some pics.
Epcot. Epcot has lots of cool things. The race track ride, Soarin ride, Nemo, Mission to space ride....and all of the countries. Very cool place. And of course the ride in the big Epcot ball. They have made a few changes and one change they made was soooo cool. It was the last part of the ride. I love that ride for some reason.
Aaaahhhh, shane is getting eat'n up by Bruce!
Me on the phone at Epcot. We were walking around all the different countries one evening and saw these. I had to get a pic! Epcot is soooo cool with all the different countries they have.
We went to this and it seriously felt like i was on american idol. They have 3 competitors compete against each other every hour, 6 times out of the day. Each person that one from those competitions ALL compete at the end of the day in the finale. AND whoever wins, wins a golden ticket to stand in the very front of the like at an american idol audition in the U.S.A. Cool huh?! This was at Hollywood Studios.
Eating pizza one evening at our resort. We stayed at the All-sports resort. For the price, we got a great place!
Hollywood studios lit up a portion of the park in the evening. It was soooo cool. They also had fake snowing falling on us the whole time with Christmas music playing. Then the lights would dance to the music, i think every 30 minutes. It was the coolest thing. The Osborn family put it on.
Also here at hollywood studios is the Tower of Terror, which we rode a TON, the aerosmith roller coaster ride, which we only rode once b/c it gave both of us a headache, but it was fun still. They also had a beauty and the beast broadway type of show, which was fun to watch, and they have fantasmic....which is an AWESOME show they hold in the evening. It was so cool. We love Hollywood Studios. They also had a Toy Story ride which was the COOLEST ride ever. That ride was the only ride that expierenced extremely long wait time....i never say any other ride that had over an hour wait time except for this one. BUT i could see why when we did it. I wanted to do it again, but we didn't want to wait forever. We had to use a fast pass for it. Kids love that ride. They also have The Great Movie ride, which is a really cool ride. I like it a lot.
We went in to see A Bug's Life 3-d show. It was cool. This was at Animal Kingdom, i believe.
When we were waiting for a parade to start at Hollywood Studios there were these different characters going around putting on little skits to keep us all entertained while we waited. This one was HILARIOUS. I loved it. It was so funny. This lady was too famous to walk on the pavement so this guy would carry her to her red carpet, in this manner. haha. He would put her on his back, move the red carpet forward, walk and put her down on it. Then repeat that over and over. She would tell him where she wanted to go and who she wanted to talk to and then he would get to everyone in this manner.
One of the shows we saw at Hollywood Studios(formally MGM).
Us and Mickey!!!
Our boys loved this one.
I was so excited to show the boys this pic with Buzz and Woody. I knew i would be the coolest mom after this one.
At The Magic Kingdom i made shane ride on the Peter Pan ride with me and also on Snow White. It reminded me of when i saw it as a kid and i LOVED the rides....it doesn't matter your age. All these rides are awesome. We love the Haunted Mansion and Splash Mountain. Oh my gosh, the coolest thing was The Laugh Floor. It was a comedy show that the Monsters put on and it was so awesome the technology they had to be able to do that. That was one of my favorites!
funny faces.
Cinderella's Castle was lit up soooooooo beautiful every night. It looked like magic. You had to be there to truly appreciate it. It made me feel like a kid again. How fun is that?!
We absoutely loved our little trip. Now we can't wait to bring the boys in a few years. The boys talk about wanting to go there and we will keep talking about it. And one day when we do bring them it will be so much fun.The unfortunate thing about this trip is that i was limping on my foot all day long. I hurt my foot somehow about a week before from running. I thought i had a stress fracture or something. It would hurt during the day and by the night time i could hardly walk. It was swollen and hurt so bad, but i pushed through the stupid pain b/c i wasn't going to let it stop me from having fun. A few days after we got home the pain completely stopped and i haven't experienced it again. Weird?!?!!? It seems like with that much pain it would have to be something serious, but it just disappeared. ?? I am so glad. By the time we had experienced every park, some even twice, we were all walked out. That was a lot of walking. We were ready to see our boys and show them pics. We took more pics of characters they like, but i am not going to post them all on here.
