We survived another Easter Week vacation-Day 1-2

[snowwite]

We left for Disney trip 4/14/06 after working all day and driving to MHT for a cheap Southwest flight.We did have A and were second in line but so many people use preboard to get thier entire family on early that we still ended up pretty far back in the plane.DD chose the row and unfortunately it was the one that does not recline.Not good on a night flight.We got to MCO and while I got the luggage DS and DH got the rental car.We arrived at Dolphin around midnight but our room was not ready (we needed a roll away bed and waited an hour for it) even though I had spoken to front desk a few hours earlier.The Key system was not working so it printed our arrival as 12/31/1899.We had headaches with EMH due to this problem. Sat am we went to MK early entry.DD got the fast passes and I got chocolate croissants and drinks from main st bakery.We all watched parade and then headed to the mountains.After riding both we went on pirates then hopped on train to toon town and took back walkway to space mtn.We tried stitch then went to our late breakfast res at Crystal Palace,which was really our lunch.We went back to hotel for nap/swim and then to Epcot where we had dinner at Teppanaki and watched candy lady make beatiful candy art.We stayed for Illuminations. We walked back to hotel because the boat line was so long. Bed around 11pm.

We walked over to Spoodles for ADR but were shocked to find a preset menu at close to 30.00 pp We dined outside in front of bakery then walked over to Epcot. We took lots of pics of topiary and walked right on to Test track.DD and I rode twice while DH and DS got FP for Soarin.They rode while we shopped for few mins in mousegears. We all went to Innovations and made a robot then did Soarin,Living Seas and headed to the countries.Lunch was samples in each country.Kids watched Miyuki in Japan.DS got a Dragon and DD a Seal. We watched Off Kilter,got CD and had them autograph and take pics w/kids. We went to Wishes at MK.Long day!
