Okay so it wasn’t necessarily a panic but I did leave things like clothes and more to the very last minute. I of course carefully planned out things like cameras, video equipment and all the technology stuff. So, today on the way home from work, I stopped at Walmart and decided to buy us a new suitcase because the two we have are shot. The two big ones we have are so beat up that they have duct tape on them and pockets don’t close so I figure it was time. So we finally finished packing tonight and tomorrow, when we get to Florida we’ll discover what we forgot.
After work this morning I ran over to Isis Parenting in Needham. I was there to pick up some cloth diaper shells and biosoaker disposable inserts from GroVia. We’ve been doing cloth diapering with Andrew and have pretty much paid for themselves already in my opinion. With the cloth diapers that are available now it is tremendously easy to switch over from disposable to cloth. When we started planning the trip we wanted to do something easy but still very much in the cloth diapering department and Allison discovered the GroVia items. We’ll be testing them in a theme park and many other places during our vacation.
Today Allison, Eva and I were joined by Mimi and Grandpa Dano. We went over to the Magic Kingdom for a second day because it has the most stuff for Eva to play on. We took Eva to Goofy’s roller coaster again because she loved it so much the first time. She enjoyed it once again so that was fun to see. After the coasters we waited in a few lines for autographs, Mickey and also the Princesses. Eva was so cute and she went right up to every character without any fear. Her autograph book was filling up quickly.
We took a break from being in the park in the middle of the day and went over to the Whispering Canyons Cafe for lunch. Each of us ordered the All You Can Eat Skillet and we did a really good job of polishing off two of them as a group. That is one of my favorite meals at Disney.
After lunch a quick boat ride back to the park where we got more autographs, Eva rode the carousel with Grandpa Dano and we all saw Mickey’s Philharmagic. Then we got some snacks and Eva enjoyed the heck out of a Mickey Ice Cream Bar.
Mimi and Grandpa Dano got Eva a Jasmine outfit complete with shoes, crown and matching purse and gloves. They also took her back to their hotel for the night.
