Sorry for not posting the last couple of days. EXHAUSTED is an understatement for the way I felt! We continued on our marthon of parks. With our other niece Carrie visiting her sister, Megs, we wanted to do as much as we could. On Thursday DH, me and the kids had another character meal @ Magic Kingdom. Miss A got to wear her 'Belle' dress up. She was adorable. As our most of the kids dressed up. Miss A dug the characters, C'man still didn't even by the end of the trip. Then it was time to hit the park as nieces were there. We did Magic Kingdom then Animal Kingdom and ended up at Epcot. Hmmm..I feel like I might have posted about this already!?
Friday was Sea World. We spent from 9 till about 130 there. What a difference a week makes weather wise. We could ditch almost all 20 layers to just t-shirt jeans/shorts. But we missed Shamu show as it was full to capacity. That was a huge bummer b/c the park was dead. We were very thankful we saw it last Saturday, in the freezing cold! Oh I was forced to ride Mantis roller coaster. I thought I was going to die, much like the guy on that youtube video. It was CRAZY and NUTS! I hated it. You were like harnassed in and then tilted forward.I screamed so much my back still hurts. I didn't open my eyes ONE TIME and I just cried out to Jesus to end the ride NOW!
Hugely entertaining for DH and Carrie. Kind of like when we rode Space Mountain. I screamed the entire time. I'm not sure why I did that time but I did. (sorry no real good videos on youtube b/c it's such a dark ride.Loved that ride tho.
Later in the afternoon the girls, oh and C'man, did some retail therapy. Hit the outlet malls. Didn't get a lot but got some cute things for me and the kids. Nieces-NOTHING. What the heck!? After shopping DH called and said to just have me dropped off at Epcot. Ok no prob, till i realized I was wearing FLIP FLOPS!! My achen feet. DH thought we should walk around the world, and he wanted to do it twice! I was like oh heck no. I'm not sure why we had to do it once.
Then after we had our walk around the world, and ate, C'man and DH went on his space ride. I stayed with Miss A who had SUCH a fit no one sat even within 500ft of us. She dropped the stroller on my foot, which now really really hurt. She wailed for at least 15 min. I wanted to start screaming for my daddy too!!
Now Saturday we left. But we had one more breakfast with the characters. I didn't eat b/c we only had one adult meal left on our meal plan. But we had 2 more kids ones. We decided to make some magic for others and bought 2 other families there one childs meals. We hope they returned the favor some way to some other guests. It was better then letting them go to waste. Oh and this was @ Hollywood Studios we ate. Our breakfast was with JoJo's Circus. Great for Miss A but C'man just wanted to be left alone.
We left our hotel by 1230. BUT now with out me being in the cafateria trying to use up our remaining counter and snack services. I ended up with like 15 bottles of juice, 3 meals (GREAT sandwhich for me that I ate on the airlplane, and hot dogs for the kids) and then tons of snacks (rice crispie bars, muffins, cookies, etc) It was so crazy tho trying to do all of this during lunch time with a 5 year old! Eventually this nice lady that brought me my sandwhich (b/c I was running around getting everything) had C'man sit with them while they, and he, ate. That was so kind b/c it was driving me nuts running here there and everywhere with a 5 year old who loves to dilly dangle around. What a putzer that kid can be:)
So anyway, we made our plane and we are now home! Home sweet home. I did a couple loads of laundry already last night and now today. As I type this i'm looking right at the fish tank that so desperately needs to be cleaned. BUT it's like BALMING here. It's warmer here now then it was in FL those first couple of days:) I even got the chicken house cleaned out.
My parents are coming this afternoon to bring Boji back. DH is at the farm getting KDee and cleaning off his parents roof. Like so many others, the snow is melting and lots of leaking is happening. I think will be ok. Miss A is napping and C'man is with DH.
In the coming days to come I'm going to recap what to do, avoid, stay, eat, etc while at Disney. We met a lot of families that this was there first, 3rd, 100th, time here and each one had great recommendations. After I list mine I'd love to hear yours! We plan on going back, just not for 2 years. That was what one family from Boston does. Great idea.
And if any of those families, people, etc that we met have a blog, please post it. I'd love to read it!!!
OK OK i must get cleaning this fish tank. I'm feeling really sorry for them. Oh wait, I can't see them even!
