Our day began very early this morning. At about 5:00 AM, Mommy came into my room to wake me up. As soon as she said "go on an airplane," I was ready to be up! Grannie and Paw-Paw had spent the night at our house, so I got changed and we all loaded up in Paw-Paw's truck to head to the New Orleans Airport. From there, we flew to Orlando!
After landing, we learned very quickly that not all "7 passenger vans" have enough cargo space for seven passengers' luggage! Just with Mommy, Daddy, Grannie, Paw-Paw, and me, we were stuffed full in our Chevy Traverse! (I don't think Mommy and Daddy will be getting one of those any time soon!) But we still had to pick up Parin & Aunt Emmy in less than an hour! So we drove straight to our condo, dropped off the bags, then headed back to get them. It all worked out!
We then headed to Downtown Disney. It's not one of the parks, but is an area with lots of restaurants and shops. We were all hungry and wanted some lunch! We picked the Rainforest Cafe. It was a lot of fun! There were lots of fish in aquariums for me to look at, and the animals all around us came alive every half-hour. I really enjoyed watching the gorillas, elephants, and the big butterfly!
After lunch we went to a few shops, including Goofy's Candy Emporium and the Toy Shop. At the Toy Shop I saw a giant Mr. Potato Head! I recognized him immediately! Inside Mommy and Daddy put together a box of new Mr. Potato Head accessories for me to take back to my Mr. Potato Heads at home. I even have Mickey Mouse ears for them!
Then we headed onto our condo. I took a nice long nap while Mommy, Daddy, Aunt Emmy, and Parin went to get groceries for our week here. We had dinner at the condo and just hung out. I've been a giggle box all night! But now, I'm sound asleep!
Tomorrow is going to be fun! We get to start the day with breakfast with Mickey & Friends! Check back tomorrow night for an update! Meanwhile.... enjoy these pictures from today!
