April 19th, 2012-Thursday
I woke up around 6:00am, yeah I can never sleep in long when leaving for vacation because I'm usually really excited. Got up, ate some breakfast, watched tv, made sure all my music and movies, etc were on my ipohne, ipod touch, and ipad and then took a shower. After that made sure everything was packed and then waited for Dad to get home so we could leave for the airport. Dad got home and we headed to Newark airport. We checked in and checked our bags and then we headed and grabbed some lunch. I can't remember where we ate, but I do remember I had a good burger. After that we headed through security and too the gate area to wait. We eventually boarded the plane and were on our way to Orlando. I watch a episode of Law & Order since we flew Jetblue and it was on and then the rest of time I can't remember what I watched, might have listened to music. We landed in Orlando and got our bags. We then headed to budget for the rental car and then headed to pick up some alcohol for FE gifts and mikes hard lemonade for me for the cruise and I think Dad picked up some rum or something like that for himself.

We then headed to to hotel. We were staying at Coronado Springs this time. We went to check in.

Checked in and then drove and parked the car and headed to our room, it was nice.

we took some pictures around the hotel

We then headed and grabbed some dinner at the Pepper Market food court, which is nice, we both had Mexican food. After dinner we went back to room and dropped off our cups and then got a bus to downtown disney to shop some. We shopped at downtown disney for a while and then headed back to the hotel for the night since it had been a long travel day and we were both tired. Dad went and got us drinks, while he did that I watched some Grey's Anatomy. I took a shower and some point and fell asleep.

Next Up: Magic Kingdom and Epcot

April 20th, 2012-Friday

I can't really remember what time I woke up, prob like 7:00am I am guessing. Dad was out of the room getting us drinks and taking pictures around the hotel.

While dad was doing that I took a shower and got ready for the day. Dad got back and we decided what to do for breakfast, we went to the pepper market and had the buffet. After breakfast went back to the room and got ready for the parks. Once ready we left to walk around the hotel for a little.

We have a ways to go before our trip *next* June, so I'll enjoy seeing the Fantasy through your eyes. (We're doing the Eastern Caribbean too!) I'm already loving the pictures. Our neighbors are staying at Coronado Springs this week; the lobby is gorgeous!

 

[DMMarla07860]

So we then headed to catch a bus to Magic Kingdom, had to wait a little, but wasn't long. We got to Magic Kingdom and the fun began.

First we went and rode Pirates Of the Caribbean, it was good, then dad rode Haunted Mansion, I'm not a ride person really so I waited for him, after then we went on It's A Small World, then we went and rode the People Mover thing.

After that we rode the train.

After the train went to the store and shopped and then got a bus to the boardwalk hotel. Took a restroom break and then headed to Epcot. Took some pictures with heading to Mexico for lunch.

Ate some lunch which was great and then we took some more pictures around Epcot.

 

[DMMarla07860]

and some more pictures.

We went and rode the boat ride that goes through the greenhouse, can't remember what it's called and then we went and got some soda.

We split up for a while. I went to the store and shopped and I don't know what my dad did, but he took some pictures.

it started to rain so we met back up and decided to head to the hotel for a break. We put the FE bags together while back in the room.

We were also on the Fantasy cruise. When it started raining at Epcot we were probably just leaving Cocoa beach and heading back to the Radison Hotel before the dark storm clouds arrived.

 

[DMMarla07860]

So back at the hotel I put together the FE gifts while dad took a nap. The rain passed pretty much, so we decided we would head over to Epcot again and grab so dinner.

We went and got fish and chips for dinner. While eating a duck almost flew right into my dad's head it was funny. After dinner we went to Japan again and went to China so I could get a drink I wanted. Rain started again so we headed back to the hotel for the night. Once back at the hotel dad got some drinks for us and we both had ice cream and then we both got our stuff ready for tomorrow. I watched tv and passed out sometime.

Next Up: We're Going On The Fantasy
