Our Travel Day

Well, the boys weren't real impressed with flying, BORING!!! :o) Mommy met her friend Keli at the airport for a VERY QUICK hello before she had to head back to Philadelphia.

Then came the waiting -

We flew from DFW to Miami, and let me tell you, Miami has the grossest airport!!! Ewwwy!! The boys did have a fun time playing around this zoo advertisement that had this big giraffe statue. They "made a friend" with another little boy waiting on his flight, it was a riot because he couldn't speak English but that didn't make a difference. Cameron did ask if he spoke Spanish, then went on to tell him that we just speak regular. ;o) Our flight was delayed into Orlando, so we left about an hour after we were supposed to and didn't get into Orlando until about 3p.m. Once we landed we found our way to the "Magic Express" which brought us right to our resort! We got checked in about 5p.m. and immediately went to the cafeteria for burgers and fries...long day of travelling will really work up an appetite!

Once settled in we were supposed to get our luggage and head out to the Pirate and Princess Party, but our luggage was delayed so we did not get to wear our costumes to the party, which was probably more of a disappointment to me than to the boys!!! So, first things first...when visiting Magic Kingdom you have to wear your Mickey Mouse ears -

Once we got situated into the park we headed for Tomorrow Land where we first went to the Monsters Inc. attraction. Cameron was VERY worried about this attraction and stood like this 90% of the time:

But, once inside he enjoyed himself and was even chosen out of the audience for a pretty big role in the show!! He told what "grade" he was in (he said, "I don't go to school, I go to FasTracKids!") and said that he wanted to be a scuba diver when he grew up. The monster kid asked how long he had had his ears and he said "Five days." I don't know where he got five days from, but the monster kid said, "Wow, did you know humans can grow ears in FIVE DAYS!" :o) After that we went to meet characters:

After meeting characters we road a transportation ride and wanted to ride the space ship things but they got shut down due to inclimate weather. We considered heading home at that time but instead took advantage of the weather and walked onto Space Mountain!!! Cameron rode this ride with Eric, I was very impressed!!! After Space Mountain we went and watched the fireworks show, which was a special show just for the Pirate and Princess Party. We were EXHAUSTED by the time we got back to our resort!!
