Paul - DH Also loves Disney
Ben - Son 17 years old
Chris - Son Turned 14 on 2/26

Monday, February 19, 2001 - Mickey woke us up at 7:00. This seemed very early since I did not get much sleep last night. Ben stayed in bed and the rest of us went down to the foodcourt for breakfast. After breakfast Paul, Chris and I went to the Magic Kingdom. Ben was still not feeling well. Our first ride was Buzz Lightyear. Chris was the overwhelming winner with 457,800 points. Paul had 197,800 and I came in last as usual with 92,700. I don't think that I have ever won! After Buzz Chris and I rode Space Mountain while Paul did Timekeeper. We also rode the TTA, and Splash Mountain. We wanted to save the rides that Ben liked until he was with us. We kept in touch with Ben and he decided to meet us at 11:30. This turned out to be a mistake because he really did not feel well. He wanted to ride something, so we waited in line for 20 minutes for the Adventures of Snow White. This was the longest line we waited in all vacation. After Snow White we headed back to Port Orleans. We ate lunch in the foodcourt (Ben tried to eat some toast and jello, but he ended up just going back to bed). After lunch Chris went to the arcade and Paul and I sat and read by the pool. At 3:00 Paul, Chris and I went to MGM. We rode The Great Movie Ride and went to see Drew Carey - Sounds Dangerous and the Voyage of the Little Mermaid. For dinner we go turkey legs to eat while we were waiting for Fantasmic to begin. We got to the theatre at about 6:00 for the 7:00 show and got seats right in the middle about 5 rows from the bottom. They were great seats although it was a little windy so we did get a little wet. After Fantasmicwe headed back to Port Orleans. Paul and Chris both had cake at the foodcourt and I had a Caesar Salad. Everyone was asleep by 10:00. Ben thought that he would be better tomorrow. We could only pray that he would feel better and that no one else would catch what he had. Tomorrow morning we go to Epcot.

I know how you felt with your DS being sick. I can remember a few trips when our DS was sick also. I hope he got better quick! Thanks for posting!
 

My worse fear is that my dd or I will get sick on vacation - knock on wood - hasn't happened yet. Another fun day. Thanks for posting!
 
yeah, getting sick on vacation would be the pits. thanks for the report.

Nothing worse than being sick on vacation -- I was sick on my family's first trip to WDW (in '72) and I wanted nothing more than to get well fast so I could try more rides! It was still a great trip for me though (I was 5 at the time). :D
 
Looking forward to your continuing saga....!

Having a member of your family having to stay behind while the rest of you are out having fun can put such a damper on your day. Hope to read that he is all better in the next report!
 
What a shame that Ben was sick. I get migraines, sometimes months apart, sometimes frequently, and of course, got one while at Disney a few years back. It's really a bummer when you're sick on vacation. Hope he recooperated quickly.
