Disney: Day 1 -- A Plane, A Train, An Automobile

Today is Day 1 of our 9 day trek to Orlando/Disney. We needed a family vacation and an escape so about a month ago we planned this trip. Camden has been looking forward to this day for a while now.

I have to say, I love AirTran Airlines. I usually fly Northwest for business, but we got a great deal on AirTran and it was a great experience. Much better service than Northwest. Cheap too: $170/ticket roundtrip, with a direct flight.

Here's a couple of pics of Camden and Caleb on the plane. Both doing their favorite things:

The boys did awesome on the plane! Once we landed in Orlando had to take a train to the main terminal to get our bags. You would think that a busy airport like Orlando would have their process nailed down and streamlined for getting bags delivered. However it took about 45 minutes for the bags to arrive in baggage claim. At least they did arrive!


While Holli and Caleb waited for the bags, Camden and I decided to go get in line for the rental car (a cool white mini-van, yes friend's of Holli, you can gasp now). We rented the car through Dollar because they has a sweet deal. I guess the rest of the Orlando tourists got the same great deal because the line was crazy long! And Dollar only had 3 agents working.


Here's Camden's feelings on the long wait:


Notice all of the empty computer terminals behind him. OK, I'll get over my bitterness toward Dollar, once we finally got up to the counter the agent was nice and did I mention the sweet deal?


Off to the hotel: Nickelodeon Family Suites. This place is kid crazy. We were only here for about an hour and Camden declares: "THIS IS THE FUNNEST VACATION EVER!"


This hotel isn't for the weak of heart. Holli and I are not sure we're going to make it out alive, but hey, it's for the kids. Awesome pools and water slides and they do a mass-slime at 4:45pm every day at the pool.


Pizza and chicken nuggets for dinner and then it was off to bed for the little guys. Heading to the Magic Kingdom tomorrow to meet up with our friend Mickey.


Holli and I couldn't resist a pina colada after the boys went to bed.

Okay, I had no idea you all were leaving for Disney. Hope you all have a wonderful vacation - we took the boys over fall break and we had an absolutely fabulous time. Can't wait to go back again soon. Tell Camden that Ian says he hopes "Cammee" has soooo much fun at Disneyworld!!!
