Our Magical Express bus to the airport was scheduled to pick us up at 5:55 AM, which meant we had to get up at oh-dark-thirty to make it there in time. We were sort of hoping the big storm headed up the East coast would delay us a bit, but no such luck. So, back [...]

Our last day at Disney – this trip anyway – and we headed back to Epcot to see some of the things we didn’t get to the first time there, and to finish our world tour! First, we headed for The Seas. The Nemo ride was a huge hit with the girls, and Anna has [...]

Anna was not quite sure about the characters, but wasn’t really afraid of them either. Carrie was just thrilled! We got to see Mickey, Donald, Goofy, Minnie [...]

Our Disney adventure started with an early, slippery drive to the airport. And thank goodness we got there early – they boarded the plane and took off 20 minutes before our scheduled flight time! I sat with Anna, Denis and Carrie sat in the row behind us. We rented a CARES harness for Anna, which [...]

The morning didn’t quite go the way we wanted – I think this is the first Christmas in my whole entire life that I didn’t get to mass – but we had a mostly good day. The girls found out today that… …we’re going to Disney World!
