Rya's first Disney vacation

On Friday, October 23rd, The Johnsons headed out for an 11 day extravaganza around central and south Florida. We started off in Venice for a nice, but too short, visit to Nana Net. We then headed to Orlando for 7 days. We took Rya to Magic Kingdom on Monday, the 26th. What a special day!! Larry and I hadn't been to Magic Kingdom since my 22nd birthday...over 10 years ago. We arrived at the park shortly after they opened and just wandered around and took in all the sights and sounds. We watched a parade, a walking musical and a show at Cinderella's castle. Rya was in awe overload! Everywhere she looked she saw people, music, dancers, balloons, characters, etc. I can't count how many times she said "OOOO!" We left around lunchtime to take a nap so we could make it for the night parade and fireworks. We got back to the park around 4 and went on a few rides before it was time for us to find our seats for the light parade. Rya LOVED "It's a Small World"! She was sitting on my lap clapping, smiling and dancing the whole ride. Larry taped some video, but it came out just a little too dark. She liked the night parade so-so and was NOT a fan of the fireworks until we moved further away. We had such a wonderful time and can't wait to go back with baby #2. :)
