First Disney Trip

We took the kids to Disney World for the first time today and everyone had a great time! There was a bad accident that had the highway closed down on oir way over, so it took us 3 hours instead of 90 minutes, but that was the only snag we hit all day.

We went on It's A Small World, the Pooh ride (formerly Mr. Toad's Wild Ride - this was my first time on it's new incarnation), the steam train, the Tiki Room, and the treehouse. The kids loved all of it, even the parking lot tram and the ferry boat from there to the Magic Kingdom, but their favorite thing by far was the Pooh-themed playground... with fountains of water shooting up out of the ground. All 3 of them squealed and giggled and got SOAKED!! Fortunately it was 90 degrees out & Mommy brought along a change of clothes for everyone.

They had nice naps in their strollers after Jimmy watched the train go past a couple of times ("WOW! WOW!"). At the end of their nap time we took a snack break in the shade just at the right time in Frontierland and ended up with spots right up front for the parade, which had them waving and clapping at all of the characters & dancers.

We had some dinner and a couple of last rides,and then headed for home as we are all pretty worn out after all the ecxitement.

Pictures to come as soon as we get home & get them to bed.
