This post is long and has lots of pictures of our 8 day vacation to Orlando. These are the pictures I took with my phone, so everything is not captured here. My mom took over 700 pictures and Scott took over 500 and I knew if I even started looking through those for the blog, I would get completely overwhelmed. Here we are leaving for Orlando. The four of us were in one car and my brother and his wife were in another one behind us.
Emma did so well on the 5 hour drive. We stopped once to get a few items and another time to eat. She fell asleep in the car very easily too.
We got there and met up with my aunt and uncle and then went out to eat in Downtown Disney at T-Rex. Emma and I came home to sleep and the rest went grocery shopping. It was like 11 at night before we got done eating, but it was great food! The next day it was rainy, so we went to a mall to walk around.
They had a Bass Pro there and had this cute carousel that Emma rode three times!! We went back to the condo and ate spaghetti for dinner and then played games.
On Monday, it was pouring down rain, but we were determined to go to Sea World. My mom, Emma, and I went to watch the Elmo show. Emma loved it. We met the characters after the show and met up with everyone else who had gone to ride a roller coaster. As we came out of the show, the sun was so bright and the rain had stopped. It made the rest of the day nice.
On Tuesday, we went back to Downtown Disney and then to City Walk to eat at Bubba Gump.
After we ate, we walked around City Walk for awhile. We attempted to take a picture of the Universal globe in the background.
Wednesday, we went to Magic Kingdom. It was misty that morning but after we got through the gate, it did not rain anymore, which we were so thankful for.
Emma loved riding the Dumbo ride with us. She even tried to make it go up and down with the knob.
Emma had so much fun!! She fell asleep in her stroller at the parks pretty easily and would nap for over an hour, which made for a happier girl!!
On Thurday, Emma and I slept in until 11:30!!! We were so tired from spending the whole day at Magic Kingdom. Scott, my brother, and uncle went fishing that morning. Us girls hing out by the pool.
Here is one of the fish that Scott caught on his fishing trip.
After they returned, the three of us, my brother, and his wife went back to Sea World for our free day. We were not there long. We saw one show, some seals and sea lions, and let them ride a roller coaster. Emma loved looking at the sea lions and "barking" at them.
Mom and I took this picture Friday at Islands of Adventure while the rest were riding a roller coaster.
Emma met the Cat in the Hat and friends. She would stare at them all and then tell them bye as we would leave them.
She was taking a break eating a banana with my mom while we rode a ride.
Here we are on the way home with all of her stuffed animals. At one point, you could barely see her. :)
One tired little girl home from a great vacation!!!
