Disney World - Part 5

When we got to Disney, we decided to get Elizabeth a character signature book and pen.  Of course it was more for us than her, but we figure she can have it for years to come and take it back each time we go to Disney.  What we didn't expect was for Elizabeth to figure out the entire "process".  After meeting a few characters, Elizabeth got the hang of it and was hilarious!  She would walk up to the character, hand them the book and pen, and then sit down in front of them for a picture.  As soon as she got bored of sitting, she stood back up and took back her pen and book.  It was adorable!!!  I'm so glad we decided to start the book on this trip!

Disney World - Part 4

On Saturday we headed to Hollywood Studios.  We were there for the gates to open because it was the magic hour day at that park.  As soon as the park opened, we ran to Toy Story Mania (along with every other person in the park).  The ride was so much fun, and we only had about a 20 minute wait.  There weren't long lines for anything really, so we got to ride everything we wanted to, and in David's case, multiple times for some rides. 

The amount of strollers in all the parks is INSANE.  This is just one little section in Hollywood Studios.

Another great day, and the Christmas decorations there were beautiful!

Disney World - Part 3

On Friday, we took a break from the parks and hung out around our resort.  We also went to the Disney Boardwalk and to a few other resorts.  Since we went at the end of November, the Christmas decorations were up - which were beautiful.  The pictures below were taken in the lobby of the Grand Floridian Resort.  It is getting more and more difficult to get pictures of Elizabeth since she runs around all the time! 

 

 

 

We made reservations for dinner at an Animal Kingdom Resort for dinner, at Sanaa.  The dinner was excellent, and overlooked a "savanna" with animals roaming around. 

 

After dinner, we headed back to our hotel and we all passed out!

Disney World - Part 2 Magic Kingdom

Thursday morning we woke up early to go to the Magic Kingdom.  We chose to go there on Thursday because it was the extra magic hour day - which means if you are staying on any Disney Resort they open an hour early for you at a different park each day.  We did fast passes for a few rides, but because we got there early, we were able to get on all the rides without lines, so we were able to change our fast passes for other rides.   Elizabeth liked the rides she was able to do, but at the same time seemed a bit confused.  It worked out well with my being pregnant, David was able to use my fast pass on the roller coasters so that he could ride them twice. 

Waiting for the entrance to open!
