We got to spend a few weeks back at Disney before doing our big move to Virginia. In many ways, it was a perfect last destination for us. The weather was gorgeous, we were back at our favorite RV park, and of course the kids had a ball at Disney. But they had just as much fun playing in the sand at the RV park and visiting with some friends. It was really a wonderful few weeks. Here are some highlights:
It was really amazing to see how much the kids had grown just in the 5 months since we were last at Disney. In May, Rinnah went on these Dumbo-style rides but was nervous. This time she LOVED them. Just couldn't get enough of it and was even doing the up/down controller on her own.
Characters are still a favorite!
Ian completely skipped over the water last time-but this time he actually asked to play at the splash pad and had a great time!

Back on the carpet ride-this turned out to be Rinnah's absolute favorite. She rode at least 10 times.
Ian was tall enough (just barely!) to ride Big Thunder Mountain, Splash Mountain, and Soarin' this time. He did great! He looks a little nervous in the picture, but honestly, he was begging to go again and again. He rode 6 times and would have happily ridden more if we'd have been willing to keep waiting in line!

Love that static hair!
Anytime Ian rode his bike to the playground, he insisted on wearing his helmet the whole time he was playing.

More friends came over to visit

Back to the splash pad
A very frequent routine:
"Mommy, I got REALLY wet!!!" she'd say. Then run back for more!
"Cheese!"
Before we left, we stopped for a day at the Orlando Science Center. Of course the water exhibits were a favorite.

Ian loved this car exhibit. You could change the tires, change the air filter, refill the fluids, change the oil....all sorts of car maintenance things. I think Ian changed the tires about 15 times.

What RV park did you stay at near Disney World? We'll be going through FL in mid-March and I'd love to get your recommendation.
Also - did you go through San Antonio, Austin, Pensacola, or New Orleans on your trip?
Nice pictures of the Disney visit. My Full time family are planning our first visit to Disney Presently. I look forward to seeing more of your blog!
