Our Disney Vacation

Mommy, Daddy, and Lauren spent the weekend at Disney's Beach Club Resort and Villas, located on Disney's Boardwalk. FRIDAY: We started the trip at Animal Kingdom.
We spent half the day over there before checking into our Villa.

Lauren loved petting the animals!
"Hello, Room Service?" Caught ya!SATURDAY: The next morning we played at Epcot. It was only a 5 minute walk from our hotel. We were able to use the World Traveler entrance which lets you in by Great Britain and France. Daddy bought Lauren a little figment. She slept with it each night.
In the afternoon, we hopped on the monorail and sat in the front with the driver! It took us to the Magic Kingdom just in time to see the 3:00 parade. Lauren experienced her first roller coaster ride over in toon town. She fit the height requirements for Goofy's Roller Coaster. She actually enjoyed the fast little plane ride!

After a brief trip at the Magic Kingdom we headed back to hotel to enjoy the pool, Stormalong Bay. This was the best resort pool I've seen. It was three acres of waterslides, currents, and sand bottom pools. The kid pool was the best. It was no deeper than 3 feet with a sand bottom. They had mounds of sand, buckets and shovels for kids to play with. The adults just sat in the pool to relax and tan while the kids were self-entertained. That's what you call relaxing! We loved it so much that we ended up booking an extra day at the hotel just to stay and play. SUNDAY: The next day we ate at Cape May Cafe - Character Breakfast. Mmmm, was it a delicious buffet breakfast! Lauren loved seeing the characters from a far, but only let Minnie get close enough for a picture.

After breakfast we played in the pool again. Since we booked one extra day to play, we also had to switch rooms from our Villa to a Hotel Room. They actually placed us in a brand new upgraded room. Lucky us!After resting up in our new room, we headed over to the Magic Kingdom to end the night. Because we were resort guest we were given wrist bands to stay extra hours in the park. We rode many rides late at night with little to no lines. The last picture is our sleeping beauty at about midnight. We really wiped her out! Although we enjoyed our little vacation, we were all ready to go Monday morning. Sometimes you need a vacation from your vacation!
