Two Kids, Two Planes, Three Hotels and Mickey Mouse





For all the set-up of the fear of flying with two kids under 4... it turned out to be way too easy. Yes, we brought way too much stuff. Yes, I didn't need to carryon half the stuff we did. BUT... Emerson and Bryce were so well behaved that I couldn't believe it. Both of them pretty much slept. I also want to give kudos to Eric for enrolling in a certain credit card the week before vacation, which allowed us to take all our baggage for free and get discounts on the inflight tv. AND... that brings me to the big kudos to whoever came up with inflight direct tv. Thank-you for allowing me to watch DYI, rated R movies or My Little Pony at the push of a button.
Emerson adored the hotels, and as you can see so did her dolls. Yes, that is Prince Phillip and Sleeping Beauty in the "hot tub" (that presents a whole host of questions in its self). The Contemporary is an amazing place to stay, in that it is steps from the Magic Kingdom; however, it is not very child friendly. They do have a cool splash area (as you can see in the picture) but the design of the building and rooms is a little too adult. Just imagine washing bottles in those bathroom sinks. You can only put about an inch and a half of water in those puppies and the water smells of chlorine so you then need to take bottled water and boil it in the coffee pot and sterilize everything! Totally worth it though!
