1 Trip down, three to go...

I am back from a wonderful vacation at Walt Disney World. I actually got back last Saturday but I have been busy catching up with work and household matters.

The vacation was great with only a few issues. The first issue was the weather. Apparently Florida had record lows during our trip. Hmmm, good if you like the cold but bad if the intention of going to Florida was to escape the cold. We left 10 inches of snow in St. Louis to low 30's in Florida. Luckily I had my ski jacket and gloves so all was good.

The second issue was the crowds. I am use to going to Disney in off season so crowds are usually very low. Plus everyone keeps talking about a bad economy so I thought Disney would be uncrowded. I was so wrong. Yeah I am sure it wasn't as busy as July but the park was a little more crowded then I am use to.

Other then those two minor annoyances, we had an absolutely wonderful vacation. We enjoyed several good dinners with the highlight being a delicious dinner at Victoria and Albert's. We met up with my sister and her family several times; which was great for me because my niece Haley is adorable and I loved seeing the parks through her eyes.

Everyone (including employees and fellow vacationers) was extremely nice during this trip. We struck up conversations numerous times with other guests and enjoyed their stories and friendliness. We definitely felt like we were in a magical place and was very sad when the trip came to an end.
