Mere's Blogging!: April 2011

Well, it goes without saying that our family does love Disney vacations. Here are some details...

HighLights:

- Eurostar trip to Paris, with TWO iPhones, one for each of the older kids. It was actually a rather relaxing ride.

- Our New York themed hotel complete with pretend ice skating rink named Rockefeller Center and a great pool and workout area that Mickey and Minnie also visited while we were there!

- The BBQ themed character lunch in the park

- The Mickey Mouse Wild West Dinner Show was fantastic, complete with real horses and buffalo

- The half day tour of Paris for Cynthia, Danny, Chris Sr. and Josephine

- Miss Maddie's incredible ability to be happy, sleep and/or smile in her stroller no matter time of day

- Ordering Beers, chips, nuts and cake from room service! Yum!

- The view out of our rooms and Cyn enjoying watching the 'ice skaters' whipping out

- The weather, simply could not have been better... 65+ and sunny every day.

- Danny calling the front desk for anything he could possibly need more of... towels (he asked for 3 more), pillows (he asked for 4 more), a blanket. It was quite comical.

LowLights:

- the transfer to subway to complete our journey there. Because of the limited time of day for the direct train we transferred in Paris, and this was quite a journey with all of our luggage and children

- Overpriced food, even more expensive than London, which is hard to believe is even possible.

- Our room needed some TLC when we arrived, tub was clogged, phone was broken and AC didn't cool enough. All was remedied quickly.

- Wishing more of our extended family was there to enjoy the trip with us... next year Grammy and Grampa Boutwell are planning to make the trip :))

Enjoy the Pictures:

Exhausted after the long journey there we enjoyed lunch a Planet Hollywood.
