The next day, we woke up and after a quick pit stop at WalMart we headed to Downtown Disney. Its basically an area of Disney shops and restaurants. Since we weren't going to be doing Disney this trip, this was a way for us to get a little taste of what we could expect when we do go. Abby LOVED it! They had a princess store that she could have spent all day in if I let her. There was also a Lego's store where you could play with all the lego's and it had a playground for the kids to play around on. After we were all tuckered out, we headed back to the hotel and took a dip in the pool. Oh, the things you will do for your kids. It was warm out, but it wasn't hot and the pool wasn't very warm either. After I finally got used the temp. Abby and I had a blast in the pool and by the time we were done she was jumping in all by herself (with floaties on of course). After Andrew got done with work, we went back to Downtown Disney and met his friend Matt (you will remember him from the previous post from our trip to Biloxi). for dinner at Raglan's which is an Irish restaurant. The food was yummy, but Abby and I were exhausted so we headed back to the hotel while the boys hit up a cigar bar.
This is downtown Disney, it wasn't very crowded when we first got there, but near lunch time there was quite a crowd. When we went back that night for dinner, it was crazy. There were people everywhere. It was reminiscent of Bourbon street in New Orleans just on a lower scale.
Abby loved that the bathrooms at downtown Disney all had kid friendly sinks that she could use without any help from Mommy.
This dragon is actually in the water and its made entirely of Legos. They had a lot of Lego sculptures, they were all really neat and it was amazing to me that people are creative enough to come up with these ideas and then actually build them! It must take FOREVER!!!!
There will be more to come of our Orlando trip to come! Our visit to Sea World will need its own post :)
