Disneyworld!!!Well, first we started the day with one of Shane's amazing breakfasts! He made a sausage egg scramble, fruit and yogurt parfaits and we had Krispy Kreme donuts. Good start to the day!!
Our timeshare was about a 10 minute drive from Disney, so great! We only went to the Magic Kingdom because it was the most age-appropriate for Oliver. The other great thing about going this was that both kids were free. We took a ferry boat into the park, which we thought Oliver would love, but he was kind of indifferent to. The first thing we did when we got to the park was buy a stamp for our Sun Pass payment. A couple of days previous I had called and explained that we accidentally drove through the Sun Pass. The operator said we just had to send a check in for the toll amount ($.75!). Very easy solution! They also said that the rental company would never know about the transgression. What a relief! So with that out of the way, we could really enjoy our day! That morning Irene had bought Oliver a wrist strap so that he could walk around the park but still be attached to one of us. It was such a blessing! He felt independent walking, but he was always withing 3 feet of us.
OK, so rides we went on, I'll just list them off...Tommorrow land tour (good intro to rides for Oliver), Carousel of Progress (I hate this stupid ride, but Shane makes us go on it every time!), Cars (Oliver drove...and loved it! Still talks about driving his race car), Thunder Mountain (both babies were asleep, so Shane and I went on it...a 3 minute wait!), Splash Mountain (literally walked right on to the ride...crazy!), Carousel, Perimeter train (a good breather from all of the excitement), we tried to see Mickey but it was a 40 minute wait, so I just showed Oliver a picture of Mickey and said "Look, there's Mickey! Say Hi!" He seemed okay with that solution!, Goofy's Airplane rollercoaster (Oliver's first roller coaster!! He LOVED it. He's such an adrenaline junky! He just giggled with glee the whole time we were on it!), Dumbo ride (a must, apparently for a lot of people, our longest wait of the day...40 minutes! Oliver liked controlling the up and down, though, and everyone got to go on), Jungle Cruise (a calm ride for the end of the day). We took the monorail out of the park which Oliver probably counted as another ride! The babies went down fairly easy that night. Shane and I had some lackluster Chinese and called it a night. What a great day!!
