We left on Friday, November 19, with Courtney, Chase and I flying out of Boise at about 7:30 am. Flight left on time, we had a whole row to ourselves, we had a great trip down! Jared, Tyler and Hayley were excited to travel down to southern Utah to visit family and cousins for Thanksgiving. They were going to join us the following week. It ended up being the best decision we made to do things that way, and everything worked out so well!
Chase loved sitting by the window. Everything went nice and smooth!
Once in Orlando, we were debating on whether to backtrack all the way to the Disney World area or just head directly out to the port, but decided since we had a GPS and the day was still young, that we may as well. We had to hit our favorite spots in Downtown Disney while we could!
Our favorite place, Goofy's Candy Company in Downtown Disney
Above: This Goofy's Candy Company sign was made out of jelly bellies. :)
Above: My favorite spot in the whole store: Chase posing with all the jelly belly flavors (my all time favorite treat).
Eating at Ghiradelli's ice cream shop! Courtney and Chase both had cookies and cream ice cream.
The dragon/sea serpent made of legos in the Downtown Disney lagoon.
Outside the Lego Store!
Who could forget the Lego Store?? It is one of the largest ones I have ever seen and had everything Lego under the sun! Chase loved it in there and it was hard for him to leave but the night was getting late and we still had to travel all the way out to Port Canaveral.
Every color of lego imaginable! You could pick and choose legos in a bag just like in a candy shop.
Our room at the Radisson in Port Canaveral. We got in pretty late to check in so we were really lucky they were able to switch us a room with 2 beds.
On board the ship
Chase loves to play chess. We went to the open house at the Oceaneer Lab and him and Courtney played with the huge chess pieces while we waited for our room to be ready. Chase learned to play chess from the great kids counselors onboard a previous cruise.
Our cat. 11 room #6549
Heading out to the drill. This is DEFINITELY NOT one of my favorite things about cruising...thank goodness its over with fairly quickly.
