Fun In The Sun: Fall Disney Trip Day One

No one is really surprised by that title are they? Yes, we are back from yet another trip to Disney (3rd this year!) No, we are not made of money lol. We buy season tickets so for the cost of one trip we can take multiple trips. Plus we use dh’s hotel points to score free nights. And these trips are our only vacations…seriously, anyone will tell you we only ever go to Disney World. :)

We didn’t stay on property this time, but at our favorite non-Disney hotel, the Embassy Suites. We had a pool-view room.

The front desk had a cute Mickey ghost decoration. Yes, Disney celebrates fall/Halloween very early.

The boys almost immediately hit the pool. The days were nice and sunny and not overwhelmingly hot. But still hot. :)

Ds3 and I outside our room.

We weren’t really planning on going to any parks that first day, but after the pool time we all felt pretty refreshed and decided to go to Epcot.

Right when we walked up to Spaceship Earth we were greeted by an RC Mickey, with stickers to share with ds4.

Next up was the Living Seas. The place was practically empty, we just walked right in with no wait.

We spent a good while watching the sea life, including rays and really big fish. The dolphins were also pretty playful that day, and I snapped this possibly indecent pic of one up close.

Me and the little guys.

We got to sit up front on Living With The Land so I got some pretty good pics.

Ds4 didn’t want to go on Imagination, so we played with the jumping water outside the attraction.

Now get this. We actually parked our car in the MK parking lot, not at Epcot. Here’s why. Dh loves the long monorail ride from Ticket and Transportation to Epcot. So we parked at MK, rode the monorail to Epcot, rode it back, hopped over on the resort monorail and went to the Polynesian. Why? Because I am a resort mug freak, and I had to have one lol!
