Disney Day One



My parents gave us the gift of going to Disney for Christmas.
The first day, Matt and I got up at 4am and started the drive down to Orlando. We drove for almost three hours before the kids awoke. We stopped for breakfast and got back on the road. In no time at all, we were driving to the Polynesian hotel to check in. We immediately hit the pool and settled in to our new digs. Baikal and Rybolt love the pool, especially the huge volcano in the middle of it! We took the kids on the monorail over to the Contemporary hotel for dinner. Then it was back to the hotel. When we arrived at the hotel, Tinkerbell had visited our room! She had left the kids a note and a small gift. They got new pajamas for their Disney vacation. The note said that we would be having breakfast with some of her friends, Lilo and Stitch! It also said that we would be going to Magic Kingdom to ride on some rides and then to see a parade! Eventually, the kids settled down and fell asleep. What a great first day!
