I just returned yesterday from our *double* surprise trip for my daughter who just turned 6 on the MAGIC~!!!!!
Man, was it something else. We had planned the cruise waaaay back in February, and had to keep the secret since then.
First fold was we told Pookie that we were going to Boston
..on a business trip with her dad. We were actually going to the SWAN!!!! We arrived at night, and rode a limo to the hotel...so she had no idea where we were. Even walking thru the lobby of the Swan (obviously our first trip there) she still thought we were in Boston. When we got to the room, (this was Thurs. the 27th btw) we sat her on the bed and told her that we were not in Boston, but at Mickey World as a birthday surprise (her b-day Oct. 30) for her. Friday was EXHAUSTING...because we did AK, MGM, and Epcot..
...Saturday she assumed that we were going back to the airport, when we were really going to the Port.
We are just laughing cuz we can see the ship from the car, but she has still not seen it yet. When we get out and she FINALLY see's where we are..she goes NUTS!!!!!
If you are interested in more of how our story goes, I wrote a live thread last week, it's under "Tenor and her Peeps" Magic 10/29. We had a blast and I was with a group of crazy Dis'ers.
