Disney Cruise part 2

 We woke up the next morning and the kids thought it was so fun to sit and watch the ocean go by. 
 Ben slept on the top bunk - he loved it up high!
 Elizabeth slept in her bed - but then got sick in the middle of the night!  So she's hanging with daddy in bed. 
 You can kind of see our room here.  To the right where you can see a door frame is the bathroom.  The bathroom was separated - one for a sink and shower and one with the toilet and another sink. 
 We had to get a picture out on the edge of the boat - it was so windy!  We were going really fast on the first full day at sea. 
 
 After this picture I went right back to the room to change into shorts.  I was so afraid I was going to flash someone with my skirt on!


 Belle was in the kid's club reading a story so Elizabeth went with Emma to listen. 



Hanging around the ship.

 We had our formal dinner night that evening. 









 After dinner we went to watch the hypnotist.  We had more time for pictures. 
 My kids were playing with our camera.



 The two other guys we were traveling with volunteered to go on stage!   Bobby and Paul are the second and third from the end on the right. 
 Bobby sat down after a few minutes - it really wasn't working for him - but Paul stayed up the entire time and seemed really hypnotized!  Then we found out when we sat down that he was aware the whole time!  Bummer!!

 The next day we were in Key West, Florida. 
 We didn't sign up for an excursion.  We just decided to walk around Key West and then head back to the ship. 


 We got back and had a big lunch on the ship. 
 We ate a lot of pizza, chicken strips and hamburgers for lunch.  The kids loved it!  They had great buffets for the adults when we were in the mood for something a little better :)
 Then it was time to take advantage of the pool. 

The Mickey slide was a big favorite!
 




 It was pretty crowded but it didn't bother the kids at all.








We had a blast!  More coming soon!

More Disney

The next day we went to Animal Kingdom. 
The tree of life in the middle of Animal Kingdom.
We went to see the 3D Bug movie right when we walked in. 
Our first glance of Everest - the big roller coaster at the park.
We met the rest of the family at Dino Land.  Elizabeth went on the Triceratops Roller coaster with Tom, but unfortunately Ben wasn't tall enough so we rode some other rides. 
Jackson didn't really want to ride anything so he just hung out looking cute! :)
 
There's a big playground area in dinoland that the kids had a blast in!
 
 
 
 

 
We had reservations at the Tusker House for lunch.  After a very long wait we had a good lunch and got to see a few different characters. 
 
 
 
Next we went on the safari ride.  I love it - it's so much fun seeing all the animals pretty close up! 
 
 
See - close!
 
 
 
 
At the end of the day we waited for the parade while enjoying a some snacks. 
 
 
I had to have a picture of Jackson - he couldn't quit waving - he was so excited to see Mickey!
Here are a few pictures from the next day.  We were at Hollywood studios waiting in line for our favorite Toy Story ride.

Man we all look cool with our 3D glasses!
 
 
We ran into Jake after the ride. 
One more day of pictures left!
