It took 4 and 1/2 years but Bob and I finally took our long awaited honeymoon in Walt Disney World. Our flight out of Dallas last Sunday was uneventful and we were lounging pool side in Orlando by early afternoon as we waited for a visit from Bob's sister and brother in law.
After a brief monsoon that soaked our guests, we ventured into Magic Kingdom to enjoy our vacation and soak our guests a second time on my favorite ride, Splash Mountain. We rode all our favorites and then headed back to the hotel to get some shut eye (and because Bob's sister and brother in law needed to get home because they had to work the next day).
During our trip we managed to make it to all the major parks and Disney Interactive Quest. We didn't make it to any of the water parks nor the Disney Sports areas, but overall I felt the trip was relaxing and we had a great time watching the excited little kids prance around the park.
Surprisingly a lot had changed since our last trip to Disney World 7 years ago when Bob proposed. There are a lot of new rides in all the parks, some of our old favorites were modified, and they have a new make over to turn little girls into Princesses and little boys into Pirates. We saw little Princesses all dolled up all over the parks, and they looked so cute and were so happy that they brought a smile to our faces. Not to mention the little kids that still had energy to run around the parks in the middle of the night (picture a little girl, maybe 3 or 4, running through Epcot just as happy as could be .... in the middle of the night - so very cute).
Overall it was a great trip and I was super sad to leave - not just because I would be leaving the happiest place on earth (and one of my favorite places) but because it meant I was going to have to come back to Houston by myself. Can't even begin to explain how much I miss Bob and how much I wish we had a couple more weeks in Disney World .... maybe next year. :)
