What an awesome trip! Beautiful weather, no meltdowns, no sickness (other than a puking incident in the pool-yuck!). Just good times and lots of family fun. We landed in Florida Wednesday morning around 10:30am with no problems. The kids really liked flying and seemed to do okay with their 4am wake-up call. We couldn't get into our room at the Nick Hotel until 3pm, so we had lunch and figured out where everything was. Once we got in our room, we hit the pool where the kids had their first 'sliming'. We also saw a show that night which was like a Nickelodeon game show.
On Thursday, we went to Epcot - loved it! They were having their flower and garden show and had beautiful flowers and topiaries of Disney characters everywhere. I think our favorite ride was Spaceship Earth. I was impressed with how everything was educational but so much fun. Like we played one game where we had to flash a flashlight at fire hazards for points. We starred in our own video game.
Friday we went to Hollywood Studios. There were fun moments but I thought it was a little bit of a dud for us. It felt like we did a lot of walking for not a huge payoff. It was also very crowded. But the kids loved seeing the Indiana Jones show and going on Star Tours.
Saturday we stayed at the hotel and did lots of swimming. It was Thomas' birthday so he was just happy to have all the wonderful attention he loves! He got to see Spongebob, so what could be better than that when you are 7?! We also saw a few movies at their 4D movie theater. The hotel was great because of the characters the kids like, the movies and 2 water parks. It could have been a little cleaner, and we had issues with the air conditioner in the beginning, but minor incoveniences compared to the big picture. All in all, we feel very fortunate we got to go to such a fun, beautiful, tropical place. We are already thinking of where to go next!
