Disney World!

We took Kase for his 1st Disney World trip the week of his 2nd birthday! We headed out Monday Feb 28th. We were little nervous about Kase's first plane flight. He was a champ!! We had a 2 hour lay over at IAH and then made it to Orlando at about 3. We stayed at the Polynesian Hotel which was perfect. Right on the monorail route out the front door. Out the back door was the boat to the Magic Kingdom and to the side was the Ticket and Transportation center. We were able to get to all the location SO easy. We will for sure stay there again!



It was a very long day but we were all excited and ready to do something. We made a visit to Down town Disney. We visited the Lego store and save the Dragon made of Legos in the lake. Kase LOVED the dragon that kept his attention for almost an hour. He still talks about the big dragon in the lake.
We then ate at a really cool place called T-Rex. It is like the Rain Forest Cafe but Dino Themed. Kase had a cautious respect for the Dinos and stayed a good distance away. As long as he didn't have to pet him he was fine :) I couldn't get him close enough to any of the Dinos to get a good picture.


The Next day was our big day at the Magic Kingdom. It was so Magical! It rained for the first half of the day. We rode Buzz's Space ranger spin several times since it was indoors. About 11 it cleared up and we were able to find Mickey and Minnie. I was nervous that he would be scared of the costumes but he LOVED them. I have some cute video that I will post once I can get it off the Iphone.


We also got him the Mickey Ears that he enjoyed. He wore them every day that we were at the park and a few days at home.

The Tea Cups and Dumbo rides ended up being Kase's Favorite rides. He still talks about wanting to go back and ride the tea cups. He even figured out how turn it and make it spin. I got a little dizzy but the faster we spun the more he loved it. We have a little dare devil on our hands.
Check out Disney World Part 2 for more fun in the other parks!

Yay! Pictures! Looks like a great time. Did you make a dino at t-rex? So funny that he was cautious. Oddly Gabriel wasn't nervous about them at all. Unusual for him.

I'm envious that you got to ride all of that stuff. And so glad Kase enjoyed it.

We didn't build the dino... it was so cute! I wanted to but we had just bought Kase a huge Mickey and Pluto stuffed animals at world of disney.

kase loved the rides. He even liked the Haunted Mansion. He huged me the whole time saying... I'm a little scared. Then when we got out he said, wow Fun!
