Orlando Vacation-Day Three











So, day three, still beautiful and sunny. We went back to the Magic Kingdom for Space Mountain and rode some more rides again, like Pirates, then we took the train ride around the park. That afternoon we took the monorail to Epcot. We went on the ride in the big ball there. We got in our cart and there is a screen in front of you where you choose the language you want to hear the ride in. Well, I was trying to get settled in with Wesley, who decided to touch the screen and ended up choosing chinese as our language. So I had to listen to the whole ride in chinese. Then, the little guy fell asleep on the ride! Afterwards we wandered around several different countries-Mexico, Norway, China, Germany (where Christopher got lunch), Spain (where Christopher serenaded me), Morocco ( where I got lunch), France (where we had champagne) and England. We saw lots of characters there-Snow White, dopey, Alice, Sleeping Beauty, Mary Poppins, "That cat from Pinnochio", and the big guy himself, Mickey Mouse! Wesley got his ice cream cone that he begged for after seeing some girl eating one. We also went on the Nemo ride (we helped find Nemo, very cool how at the end you see the animated fish in a real fish tank!). We looked at the dolphins and fish and saw the shark exhibit there. We staying until late that night to catch the fireworks show, Illuminations. It was beautiful, Wesley LOVED the fireworks, all the colors and water show they do. He kept saying "Ooooh! cool! More again Mommy!" It was well worth waiting out the day there to see it. I can't believe Wesley lasted so long. 

In the pictures: metting the characters, Christopher reuniting with a camel (ha), Wesley and I at a fountain, Wesley and Christopher sticking their feet into the fountain in France, Wesley enjoying his ice cream cone, the three of us in Morocco (didn't know we got around so much, huh? lol)

alex was amazed at the picture with you two and Mickey Mouse. He was just in awe for a good 5 seconds. He likes to see Wesley...and I guess himself since he thought he was Wesley in one of them!
