Adventures

One of my favorite things to do at Disney World (besides going to the parks of course) is resort hopping.  It is so fun to see the different theme of each property and their different details.  One day we hopped a bus over to Animal Kingdom Lodge (you can not go directly from your hotel...you have to take a bus to a park and then take another to the lodge property).

I pulled up the map of the property and we checked out the animal viewing areas. 

Hello beautiful!

The cast members working there said that they feed them about an hour before dusk right up at the fence and the giraffes come up to visit. 

The plan is to take the kids over there on our next visit during a feeding. 

Animal Kingdom Lodge is a beautiful property.

Home Sweet Home

Jeff & I are now home after our 2 week adventure in Florida.  

While I was sad to be leaving, I am happy to see my kids and sleep in my own bed.

The only thing I am missing is warm weather.  It's August and it is only 66 degrees outside at 11:30am.  Seriously it feels like late September here already.  :(

Wordful Wednesday- Destination

Last week I wrote about how my husband & I went on a getaway.

We flew out at 6am and arrived in Orlando, FL 2.5hrs later.  Not sure if I have ever said this before, but I HATE flying....love getting to our destination quickly, but hate take-offs and landings.  I have gotten better, but I am still not fond of it.  

Once we arrived we hit the ground running...we checked in to our hotel went straight to the park.

Yep, we went back to Disney, just the 2 of us.  Our Anniversary was on the 11th of July and we had decided to celebrate by going to Disney.  At first I felt a bit guilty going without my kids, but that feeling wore off quickly.  We had a great time just hanging out trying new things.  Our goal this trip was to eat at different restaurants and go on some rides we had never gone on before and we did just that.  We also decided to go hotel hopping and see what they were like.  You know, things children do not like doing.    We had a blast.

Cheers!

Flying

WOW, it's been a while since I posted.  That's because I was working hard so I could go off and have some fun. 

If you follow me on Facebook, you are already aware that I did not have internet access all of last week.  What most people (except a small few) knew was my husband & I took a mini vacation with out the kids.  It was nice to get away by ourselves for a while.

We saw some birds on our getaway...

Any guesses on where we went?  :)
