Disney Day 1....Vacation Day 4...

Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to Disney we go.........
We arrived early Monday morning....excited and ready to go.....Let the memories begin!




Our 1 and maybe only attempt at a family shot....kind of sad really.....


I don't know if it's just because I am older...or if Cinderella's castle has shrunk...but it seemed considerably smaller than what I remember as a kid.....


Our first ride....we started them off easy....the carousal.....




Next up...the Matterhorn...ha ha...not really although Ana and I did attempt this later in the day...she came off the ride saying she loved it...but was adamant that we not ride it again....




Here is the point in the day in which we stood in our longest ride line...45 minutes to ride an underwater submarine into "Nemo's" world....in which at one point all four of my kids were screaming in terror for fear of the "shark" that would eat them....good times :) !!




The lines were really not bad at all....this was the longest...the rest were no more than 20 minutes...with many many being 5 minutes or less....it was the perfect time of year to go....


Inside the "scary" submarine....


Adi's Day 1 nap...almost a 2 hour snooze in this stroller....


A break in the day....waiting patiently for the Sound Sensational Parade.....


Adi's smile....the girl just won't look at the camera!!




The parade was really fun...and a nice break for the kids and for us.....
















After the parade it was off to "Toon Town".....





Eric and I convinced Ana to do one more roller-coaster with us....The Train ride....


A good first day.....ending the day with a picture of Goofy in our hotel....

Dearest Suzie,

Just wanted to let you know that perhaps Cinderella's castle looked smaller to you because in fact it is NOT Cinderella's castle :) Her castle is at Disney World in FL. The castle you saw is Sleeping Beauty's. Just wanted to make sure you have your princess castles straight :). Looks like a fun trip! Super memories I am sure!
