Orlando - Magic Kingdom

We have been itching to get back to Disney since the first time we went 2 years ago. Just like before, we went with Nancy & Fletcher (aka Nana and Grandaddy) and rented a house. I hope we are building a little tradition because we simply love this little trip. We love the chance to visit Disney and we love spending some extended time with Nancy and Fletcher.

First on the agenda was Magic Kingdom. Cole remembered Goofy's Barnstormer from the trip 2 years ago and was itching to go again. The kid LOVES fast rides. (more on that later).

We had such a great time at Magic Kindgom. This was Adison's first visit, since she was just 1 the last time we visited, and we didn't bring her to the theme parks. She absolutely loved it.

We hit the hot spots: Tea Cups, Goofy's Barnstormer (times 3), The Motorway, Mickey & Minnie's house, Winnie the Pooh and more. A note on Mickey & Minnie: we met them live and in person. You can see from the picture, Adison is thrilled while Cole is most likely thrilled but playing his shy/nervous look.

The most surprising thing was that the kids LOVED the Transit Authority in Tomorrowland. It was essentially a moving sidewalk, only sitting down. It took you on a view over the whole section. The wanted to ride it twice! Fine by us who had been walking a good bit.

As usual we left when the kids started getting tired and headed back to the house for a relaxing afternoon. We love staying in a home instead of a hotel. It's so peaceful, everyone has their own space, we have our own little pool, it's such a treat!
