Disney World!

So, last week we made the big trek to America's kid-mecca, Disney World! Matt had a conference there, so we decided to turn it into a family vacation. We stayed with friends for 3 days (who have two girls, 5 & 7), and then at the hotel for 3 days. It was surprisingly relaxing for Matt and I, and the girls had an awesome time.  

Lucy's highlights were the roller coaster (one for young kids), and the Viking boat ride. Clara loved the "It's a small world" ride, pointing and exclaiming at all the dolls and dancing figures. The splash park was also a big hit for her.  Matt and I had so much fun watching the girls experience it all.

The first few days were pretty hot, but then the tropical storm came in, and all day Sunday there was pouring rain and high winds. Thankfully the rain cleared up by mid-day Monday, so we could enjoy more rides.

Lucy dictated the captions for the pictures below.

This is me at the Pooh ride.

Hi, this is Clara and Mama at the carousel. Do you see the Cinderella castle behind the carousel? We are in the shade.

Do you know this next one? It's me and Clara and Papa on the carousel. Do you see the other people on the carousel?

Hello, this is Clara getting wet. There was a sprinkling park. This is Clara splashing in the water.

This is me. I got all wet in the sprinkler park. Those are the other kids getting wet. There is a whole train, and the animals are squirting out water. It makes the floor really wet and I almost slipped.

Here's me with my mickey ears. There's my dad behind me. Do you like my pretty dress? Do you like my mickey ears? They're so shiny with sequins. I would have got more for my sister.

Here's me asleep in my mickey ears. Do you like these? I'm kind of asleep.

There's Clara. She's showing me my stickers.

Clara is little. Now she is holding her stickers too. Now she shows them to everyone.

Here's Clara and me. We're at the table eating with mommy. Yes, the food was good.

Here's Clara. She's in her high chair eating chicken and smiling.

This is when we are at Epcot. We went into the big ball. Also, there was an aquarium ride- we saw fish and a big dolphin. There was a viking ride. We really liked it. We went 20 feet down in the boat, really fast!

I'm in a fountain! Can you guess where we are, Mimi and Papa Jack? We are in Morocco!
