We told our kids we were going to Houston to visit a friend who just had a baby. We drove to WDW instead to surprise them which thrilled our 9 year old son (at the time) but disappointed our 4 year old daughter who kept saying, Oh man, I wanted to go to Houston!" We drove up to the Contemporary and the poor bell man opened the sliding van door for her. She screamed, "Shut the door-I'm getting out of here and going to Houston!" I'll never forget the look on his face, poor guy. We carried her kicking and screaming through the lobby, up the elevator to the room. Thankfully Wishes was just starting, and we had a great view. That perked her up and saved our weekend getaway. We've never surprised her with anything again, and she's now 17.
