Nyla was really at the perfect age to go. She was old enough to ride on everything -- including Splash Mountain and Space Mountain -- but young enough to have her eyes light up and jaw drop when she would see Cinderella in person. And there were a lot of fun rides for Celia too. Nyla's favorite rides were Peter Pan's Flight, the Astro Orbiter (where you control your own rocketship), and the Barnstormer (her first roller coaster!). Celia's favorite rides were Snow White's Scary Adventures, The Haunted Mansion (which I thought would be too scary for her; go figure), and the Tea Cups. Celia loves Snow White, and was lucky enough to meet her:
Wyndee and I shared a romantic meal at the restaurant from The Lady and the Tramp:
Celia also loved The Many Adventures of Winnie-the-Pooh, which had the most fun line to wait in. I believe Celia is pretending to eat the honey in this picture:
Celia looks nice and gloomy (maybe more on the pouty side) here in Eeyore's Gloomy Place:
Nyla tried to pull the sword out of the stone, but alas, was unsuccessful. England must continue to wait for a new Queen.
Pretty much every day ended with Celia fast asleep before we even got to our car:
We even saw a rainbow over Cinderella's Castle -- how magical is that?
Then we headed to Fernandina beach for two days:
Nyla appears grumpy here because she didn't want to be in the picture, but it's the only one of all four of us. It doesn't reflect Nyla's actual mood at the beach, where she had a great time, as you can in the following picture:
The ocean was a bit cold and the waves were a bit rough for the kids, so we spent most of our time playing in a little pool that formed at low tide.
Wyndee: Celia, do you want to go back out into the big ocean?So we called it the "little ocean" for the rest of the trip. Here's a picture:
Celia: No. Little ocean.
What a wonderful trip!
