Jack had a week of firsts… first airplane ride; first trip to Florida; first boat ride; and his first trip to Disney! The Shaw’s and Cervone’s headed down to Orlando to visit the Magic Kingdom and all the other parks. We all had a lot of fun.
The airplane ride was decent. It wasn’t that he didn’t like the airplane, its that he didn’t like sitting in one spot for so long. We had movies and coloring books, but it did not matter. But it was only a 2 hour flight, so we all survived.
Disney was amazing. Jack loved every minute of it. He LOVED meeting all the characters (or guys, as he calls them). He loved the rides; even Goofy’s Barnstormer, which might have been a little too big for him, but he loved it none the less. He even enjoyed the 3D shows. At one point he was reaching out at the stuff.
Two things were constant throughout the trip: Jack would put his finger in either the eyes or nose of the characters and I would be soaked in sweat. It was soooooooooooo hot. So hot. Hot.
All in all we had a great time. And anyone who read my Facebook post saw the line of the vacation… After waiting 30 minutes to see Mickey and Minnie it’s finally Jack’s turn. They turn to him and open their arms in a big hug. Jack goes running towards them… then right past them to the big mouse eared pumpkin saying, “Look at this pumpkin!” The photographer said she had never seen that before.
You will see in the photos a picture of Minnie Mouse shrugging her shoulders next to said pumpkin.
