So when I last left off only 2 months ago, but we were leaving MCO on Magical Express. I wish I could have more pictures coming down the road, but it was getting dark outside, and the windows were so tinted you couldn’t really see anything. I really enjoyed taking DME. I was so nice not to have to worry about where we were going. I wish I would taken more pictures when we got there, but it was dark and we were all so tired. We basically just checked in and made our way to our room. I took a couple pictures on our way to the ROCK INN!!!

Yea that’s all I took. I was completely dark by the time we got there, and we were all hungry and ready for bed. We just had 2 standard rooms on the 3rd floor which I was happy about, but not so happy about being 3rd room from the end looking at ASSp and so far from the bus stop, although it was really quite. We were glad to be so far away from the main pool after we walked by there a couple times. We booked on a military room only code and got the rooms for $115 for 2 nights. I could not complain ya know?!

Hidden Mickey heads anyone???

After we put our stuff down in our rooms, we set off for the food court for some food. DH and I got a mug to share, and my mom and dad did the same. We got a yellow top and I think they got a red top. I don’t think I have any pictures of these either, nor do I have pictures of our dinner. We were starving!!! I want to say we got salads and sandwiches I believe, and then of course we had to get ice cream. This is where the screaming kids start. We sat next to a table of 2 adults and 5 kids. The oldest looked to be maybe 10 with the youngest being maybe 2 or 3. Now first let me say, I understand kids cry, but when kids scream and cry just because they don’t get their way, this really strikes a nerve with me. The parents let all the kids at the table by themselves while they went and got dinner. They came back and had a little bit of everything. They were handing out the food and that’s when it starts. One of the little girls maybe 5 falls down in the floor screaming… I don’t want this… I told you I would cake and chips. The dad quickly picks her up and puts her back in her chair says you aren’t getting it (at this point I am impressed) but then turns around at another table sits down and starts eating paying no more attention to her. At this point she throws her food in the floor, crosses her arms and starts screaming to the top of her lungs I want cake and chips, all the while mom and dad are having their own little conversation completely ignoring her. After about 3 or 4 minutes of this the dad turns around and says If you don’t the H***shut up I am going to beat you’re a** and you are going to the pool with no dinner. I mean seriously people come on. At this point the little girl gets up and walks out of the food court with a fine them… I’m going to the pool, and off she goes by herself. Eventually the mom got up and went outside with her, but I was completely appalled by this situation. Anywhoo… rant over haha After we finished out ice cream and got refills on our drinks, we made the long hike back to our rooms ever so far away. It was like an unending walk. Needless to say I will definitely pay the extra for a preferred room next time. When we got back to our room, our luggage had arrived, and after Mom having a mild panic attack about not being able to find her luggage that was sitting next to her bed (oh poor Mom bless her heart) we went to bed with wake-up calls set!!!

Up next: We go resort hopping, and end with a Wave and Wishes!!!
