On our Train ride we all where so excited that we could not sleep, So as I tried to get some sleep Joe stayed up and made sure none of the passengers getting on or off the train in the middle of the night messed with our kids. "We are a bit Over Protective" But Hey ya never know...

On The second Train To Orlando Leaving Penn Station was quite an experience. We met up with another family The Daughter was The same age as my oldest and Their Youngest son was the same age as my middle daughter. They had some fun and played on those Nintendo DS games.

That was our day of travel

This was one of my favorite days of our trip... We had a easy going kinda go with the flow trip. So I will be showing you many pics...


First we met Daisy Duck

They where so excited

We met The Fairy Godmother

Ducky was the only brave one to meet the evil step sisters and step mother

They where waiting patiently to meet Ariel, In her fishy form...

This was such a treat because Ariel was so nice and took her time talking to us..

We wanted to cage up those wild animals

Ducky Loved these guys

They where in a whole new world with Aladdin and Princess Jasmine

My oldest (Horse) Loved Stich sooooo much just wait and see..

Time for Lunch!!
The best Quick service ever!!
Cosmic Ray's Starlight Cafe

Tea Cup Fun!!!!

FACE PAINTING A MUST....With a little ducky fun....

Ducky Becoming a duck

The Finished Product...

After that we went around Toon town and ended back at the Crystal Palace for our dinner... awesome time we had..

Every Place we went we found the most difficult questions to ask, we even asked how high the top of the crystal palace is... They told us about 35-38 feet high.. but it took a phone call to to the higher up's to find out..

More fun with pooh and friends...

As the evening progressed the hiccup's started
#1 Rude people from other countries cutting in lines...
#2 pushy adults shoving their kids in front of people
#3 Black Friday atmosphere (every one rushing for no reason)

Then it was time for Wishes!!! But to windy for Tink to Fly

A quick look at the Castle and the little one yells I GOTTA PEE!!!
Great now we must loose our seat and run for the potty because they all have to go now..

HICCUP #4 This One Hurt!!!
A Lady Rushing out of Magic Kingdom Ran full force into me using her kids as a barrier to push threw people, she hit me and my HOT HOT HOT Coffee spilled down my shirt burning me... OUCH!!
So Then It was time to "shake it off" so the kids can have fun.. Back to find a seat for Wishes....

This was as close as we got but better than nothing.. I was planning to9 make it back to Wishes another night so I could see Tinkerbell fly..

And that was our day...
We Headed back to Port Orleans Riverside and took a dip in the pool the kids fell asleep in lounge chairs and me and hubby hung out in the hot tub for a hour, It was a calming end to a wild night...

More to come.....

this was a year ago at our local riverfront

Yikes! Hot coffee spilled on you must have hurt like the devil. Glad you were able to shake it off and enjoy the fireworks. Unfortunately there are plenty of rude people at DW, I have learned that is to be expected. It makes you wonder how people get so ignorant and ill-mannered. The adults can be worse than the kids sometimes. Atleast you had a relaxing end to your evening. Love all the pics, it's so nice to see everyone having fun while you are reading the trip report.
