We Made It - Recap of September 28

We woke up at 4 am yesterday morning with big smiles on and a ready to go attitude. The girls alarm clock consisted of me cranking up When You Wish Upon a Star on our computer. I soon realized the neighbors probably didn't enjoy the wake-up call like we did.

Everything went so smoothly yesterday: getting our boarding passes, airport security, airplanes being on time, getting our baggage, getting on Magic Express and checking into our hotel. It was all wonderful except for the fact that it took the entire day.

We knew we were in for some Disney Magic when we boarded the Magical Express bus with it's red seats and yellow stars and my personal favorite, the glittery floors of the bus. Since the bus was pretty empty we sat up front and chatted with Rick, the bus driver who provided us with a wealth of information.

Our hotel is pretty wacky with the oversized sports theme. We're in the tennis building next to the surfboard pool and our view is of a tree and the tennis court. The food court here is something else very loud and chaotic and Anita is right, the food is overpriced and not very good BUT we're here on the free dining pan so no more complaints about food from me. We also unpacked everything and totally made ourselves at home. I think I brought everything except the kitchen sink, well, scratch that I did forget to pack Josie's black underskirt for her costume. Poop!

All good things muct come to an end though as we all had a small meltdown about 12:30 am when we decided the best remedy was to just go to bed.

I'd love to post pics but the connection here via the cell phone is pretty S L O W. We're off to Epcot!
