Terrific Thursday

Our first full day at Orlando..... We checked out of the Nick Hotel and then went to the Magic Kingdom and checked into our room....



At the Contemporary which is really close to the Magic Kingdom.... The cool thing is that the monorail goes right through it....


Our room looked something this (not our family though)

We weren't in the main building so we hiked a pretty good way but we were close to the water.

After check-in we headed to the Magic Kingdom.....

Wow... Cinderella's castle is amazing...... the Mickey in Blaine's hands is a great thing... It is an interactive toy that tells facts about the parks with a sensor in his nose that interacts when we go by the parks sensors. It will tell about the rides, do jokes, and many more things. It was his first purchase from the loot G-Daddie, Nani, and Poppie gave him.


A little rain dampened things for a while but luckily we were waiting inside for a ride so we just watched other people getting wet.


One of the last rides before we left the park was the old standard.. It's a Small World... A great ride....

Then we had tickets to see...

An awesome show.... We have seen many cirque performance but this was one of my top favs.... the four little japanese girls were amazing and stole the show....

One of my surprises was to eat at Wolfgang's restaurant. Wow was the food great. I had crabcakes, shrimp and scallop fetticini, and a super dessert. Here is Blaine with his dessert. It was create your own sundae.....


Lastly before we passed out, we went to Disney Quest.... an arcade where you pay one price at the door and then you need no coins. We had a good time. I even relived the old days and got my skills back on Frogger and Dig Dug. Wow. There was also a River Rafting Virtual Experience where the family practiced their rowing. Both Kev and I decided we were definately out of shape......
