Blogcrastination

I was going to blog about all of our Disney adventures, but I left it half-finished and now it's old news. The hightlights are as follows...

1.) My favorite moment - (there were many), but the "surprise" parade we ran into at MGM studios was pretty great. Somehow or another we ended up in the front row and just about every character had a personal encounter w/ both my kids (the 5 year old's recently purchased Kermit the Frog doll even got to be part of the parade for about 10 seconds). When my daughter (the three year old horse freak) saw Mary Poppins riding in on a carousel horse, she screamed, "I can't beweeve it!"

2.) Most "interesting" moment - Ok, in my defense, the 5 year old insisted we go see It's Tough To Be A Bug in the Tree of Life. He loves A Bug's Life okay? Well, for those of you who don't know, it's a fifteen minute 3-D movie in which the audience gets to experience what it's like to be a bug. There was stink spray coming at us and then giant spiders with beady red eyes dropped from the ceiling. In 3-D! The three year old still doesn't trust me.

3.) Most interesting Disney tidbit I could do without knowing - My son vomited all over Norway. We found out later he had a double ear infection (no wonder the airplane was a challenge for the little guy). In addition to shutting down the Maelstrom for 15 minutes, we encountered a crack team of Disney employees on hand with bags of sawdust and various other vomit cleaning supplies. We were calling them the Vomit Team until my sister discovered they have an actual name. The Protein Spill Squad. Somehow, this doesn't seem like the kind of job one actually applies for.

All in all though...it was a WONDERFUL trip.
