All we remember from that trip is meeting the Ant and getting signatures from the chipmunks. So my memory of the Magic Kingdom is a little tainted, the happiest on earth was not that happy for us. After all, we were spending a couple of thousand dollars to be here. We stayed away from the crowds and closer to the exit, so we can just take a quick peek and leave. We never made it to any of the parks after that… The last day after 5 days of being holed up in a hotel room, we ventured out just to watch the parade and the fireworks. Being in a room with two sick kids, inevitable both of us caught the flu as well. But her temperatures kept rising and we soon found out she had the flu! The little one started getting fussy and promptly fell sick the next day! We took rest in the hotel between visits to the pharmacy and soup runs. We chalked it up all the excitement and exhaustion of visiting the park, seeing the animals and her favorite characters. She was doing ok but was wiped out by the end of the day. We had a non-refundable trip booked through Expedia and couldn’t cancel, so went ahead with the trip. I had checked with our pediatrician who gave us the clearance to go but left the decision to us. Miss S was running a slight temperature before we left on the trip.

We were there during a Thanksgiving break and started day one with meeting all the Disney characters followed by a Kilimanjaro safari tour at Animal Kingdom. The Animal Kingdom was the only park we experienced in the one week we were in Orlando. The last time we visited the Disney Theme Parks was a few years ago when the kids were little toddlers. There is another reason why Animal Kingdom is our favorite of all the Disney theme parks.
