Disneyworld

Disneyworld was great! I think it was one of the best vacations we have ever had. It did make me a little sad from time to time to see all of the families with their children there -wishing we had Jade. We know that the next time we go, we will have her.

The first day we arrived a bit late, so all we did was go to Downtown Disney. We ate a really nice dinner there at the House of Blues.



The next day, we went to EPCOT. I have loved it there since I was in high school, especially the World Showcase. We spent a lot of time in China and when we were there, I had some sort of realization. I realized it doesn't matter how long we wait for Jade- we will never give up. We will never choose a different option. She is already part of our family and we already love her, so we will wait as long as it takes. Of course, we want it to be a short wait, but we will keep waiting until she is home.





The next day we had a wonderful breakfast at the Polynesian Village and then went hotel hopping to see some of the Disney hotels. I LOVED the Animal Kingdom Lodge and would love to stay there once. We were staying in the All Star Music Resort. After that we went to Hollywood Studios and then to the Magic Kingdom. It was a long and busy day.







The next day we went to Animal Kingdom and I really loved it there. It was Ken's 41st birthday and he wore his special birthday button you get from Disney. So many people said happy birthday to him. :) I actually was a big girl and rode Expedition Everest even though I was scared silly. It wasn't nearly as bad as I had anticipated. I do not like roller coasters!




We finished up by going back to Downtown Disney for some last minute shopping, and then the next day, it was time already for our flight home. I wore my new Mickey shirt home which I bought in Asia at Animal Kingdom. It was such a great trip. I just wish it wasn't over!



Soon I will have to start thinking about my classroom and getting it ready for the new school year. Summer, I never want you to end!
