Just returned from Orlando! Kani and I agree that this has been the most fun we've ever had at Disney World, though we wish it could have been for more days. Chase started out last week a very sick boy, we had to take him to the local emergency clinic and to his doctor twice. We were told he had a sinus infection... turns out that he also had pneumonia. So he stayed home from day school all last week to give him time to recoup, and then he was given the ok to travel.
We decided at the last minute against flying to JAX and then going to Daytona, thinking that the long flight to Florida and ensuing long car ride might cause a certain little person to become, in a word, 'un-corked.' So we opted instead to go straight to Orlando and were better off for it.
This was definitely the trip of the free upgrade. We flew in 1st Class on CO, and Chase did great. Avis then gave us an upgraded car, because our first one smelled of smoke. Then we asked for a hotel room with a better view, and the nice desk lady gave us a suite w/ sitting room for no charge! So a rather quickly thrown together, last minute trip to Disney turned out to be rather special, with beautiful weather and no worries all around.
Chase absolutely loved Magic Kingdom and we took many good pictures. His favorite experience was the Main Street Parade, he was totally enthralled, making his Mom 'a little teary.' Hannah was a good big sister, being the resident expert and showing Chase all around.
Hannah also had a blast riding the 'scary' rides with Dad multiple times and trading from her rather sizable collection of Disney pins with other Disney nerds. Interestingly, her trading buddies all seem to be handsome, tall, teenaged males. (?)
As always, we are very thankful to God and feel blessed to have this special time to relax together as a family and recoup from our hectic life. God bless our families!
