Florida

1/20/2016

We just got back on Sunday night from a ten day trip to Florida. We went to Disney World, the beach, Legoland, and SeaWorld. It was so much fun!
Our first day there, we drove to Magic Kingdom. It was raining a little. Here's our first picture in Magic Kingdom:

Evidently rain ponchos aren't Wesley's idea of fun. :-) He didn't have to wear it for very long, since the rain cleared up pretty quickly. We got to cross the lagoon on the monorail. After that, we went on some rides. We tried to take a picture in front of the castle, but it didn't turn out very well.

Too bright!!

That night we headed to Epcot, another one of the Disney parks. The centerpiece of Epcot is "the ball". This attraction towers over the rest of the park, and is eighteen stories tall! Just before this picture was taken, Wesley yelled, "Silly face," and here's what happened:

Here are some pictures I took at sunset.

One of my favorite parts about Disney is the world showcase in Epcot. As you walk around the lagoon, there are clusters of buildings and attractions, and each cluster is made to look like it is from a certain country. There are different restaurants in each country, and that evening we ate at the German restaurant. They had a live polka band that played while we ate.

The next day, we met Donald Duck. We met up with some new friends, the Pleasants, who happened to be at Disney. (You can read Mrs. Pleasants' blog post on helpful Disney tips here.) At lunch, Mommy fed a squirrel who was very intent on getting into our stroller! In the afternoon, we went to Animal Kingdom, and went on the "Kilimanjaro Safari", which Wesley loved.

We went to the beach with some good friends of ours who happened to be in Florida around the same time. I waded and looked for seashells, and Wesley chased seagulls.
