Disney World, Florida, here we come!
Ty and Lydia excitedly waiting to board the plane, just a bit before sunrise. This was Ty's second plane trip, and Lydia's first. She loved it, he did not.
Keeping busy on the plane. Lydia got the window seat for every flight. She loved to see that we were above the clouds.
Our cool hotel. We stayed at the Pop Century. It has buildings themed 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s. We were in the 80s building, so you can see iconic 80s things here, such as a rubik's cube (for our stairwell), walkman (it was huge! notice how tiny Ty and Lydia are in the pic--top left), bigwheel, Pacman, and more.
Taking a boat ride to our restaurant for dinner. We ate at 'Ohana at the Polynesian resort the first night. It was a Polynesian feast, and oh so delicious!
Thus ended our travel day. The real fun begins the next day...

Favorites:
Ty - Aerosmith Rock 'N Rollercoaster

Lydia - Splash Mountain
Ty - Waiting in line (the lines really weren't long), being hot (it was around 80°), and walking.
Favorite food:
Ty - hamburgers
Lydia - hot dogs, of course!
Favorite character:
Ty - Piglet
Lydia - Meeko, because he tickled me.
Rides:
Soarin' - Lydia said, "It was awesome!" I agree. Her and I went on it twice.
Test Track - Shane and Ty went on this one twice. Ty loved it.
Star Tours - I really like the simulator rides. The kids and I went on this one twice, it was that fun. Ty liked this one better than Soarin'.
Haunted Mansion - none of us liked this one. Not as tame as I've heard it was.
Space Mountain - I don't like rollercoasters, but Ty thought this one was tame enough that I would like it. So I went with him. He was wrong. Ty loved it SO much, he rode it 4 times in one day.
