Disney!

Wow, I am wiped out.  I’m not all that surprised as we we’ve been up since 3am with only an hour nap.  We all made it to Disney World safely and we are already having a blast.  Between the flight in and the nap, we weren’t able to begin until this evening but we’ve already done a good bit at Hollywood Studios.  Before going into that though, I have to say that this hotel is great.  We are staying at the Coronado Springs Resort and it is beautiful.  I haven’t stayed in a moderate resort since I was a child (before the value resorts existed) and it is so much nicer.

That’s not to say that the value resorts are horrible.  They aren’t but this is a step above and I’m really glad that decided to go here.   We were too tired and it was a bit too cold to enjoy our pool but I’m super excited to use it.  It’s a replica of a Mayan ruin with a giant waterslide running through it.  We have pictures which I’ve posted on Instagram and will post here eventually.  The biggest downer thus far is that the internet is super slow.  I’m writing this in Word and will hopefully be able to actually post it after it’s done.

Okay, I’m falling asleep at my computer here so the rest will be quick.  Tonight we enjoyed Fantasmic and the Osborne Spectacle of Lights before having some good ol’ Earl of Sandwich at Downtown Disney.  Again there are pictures, a lot of them and I will post them asap and let them speak for themselves.   To say that the Christmas lights were beautiful would be an understatement.  The lights, the choreography with the music, the whole experience was breathtaking.  Fantasmic hasn’t changed but is still one of my favorite shows. 

Alright, to bed now for much needed rest.  We will be up early tomorrow for the Animal Kingdom and Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party.  I wish I didn’t need sleep because I want to do it now.

Oh, and it’s Dave’s 30^th Birthday today!  He hit the big 30!  There’s so much more to say but I really can’t.  I just love him so much and am so glad that we are celebrating it here in this magical place.
