all last week A was in orlando for work. which sucked for me, up until friday, which is when i caught the first plane out of here and traded the cold of colorado for 70-degree days and the happiest place on earth!
first stop: magic kingdom. we only had half a day there, but we made the most of it. we watched the parade of happiness and headed straight to the new fantasyland expansion {think little mermaid, beauty and the beast, and a storybook circus, with more to come}. we ate an early dinner at the beast's castle {where i pretty much almost passed out from the shock of all my little girl fantasies coming true right before my tear-filled eyes}, complete with exclusive disney champagne and a photo op with the master of the castle himself. next we got coffee from gaston's pub and i tried to contain myself once again when i saw little mermaid land. we did a few other magic kingdom musts {the haunted mansion, space mountain, etc.} and stayed for fireworks of course!
saturday morning we got to epcot right when it opened. because we are ridiculous. but also because EPCOT IS THE BEST. they were having the flower and garden festival, which meant we got to see all of our favorite disney characters portrayed in plants throughout the park. and in other exciting news, they'd re-released CAPTAIN EO! children of the eighties rejoice! michael jackson at his finest! we got to meet prince eric {!} and go around the world showcase with my dad who was in town from tarpon springs {!!}! we escaped angry trolls in norway, drank champagne in france, ate enchiladas in mexico, and saw a british rock band in england. happiest place on earth indeed.
