Day 1- July 26, 2009
We were all too excited to sleep the night before, even Addison. We put her to bed around 8:00 and I dont think she fell asleep until past 11:00. Ryan and I were up until 3:30 or so. I had to finish a lot of wedding stuff before we left and pack because I tend to procrastinate. I was surprised when 6:45 rolled around and she was in our room waking us up! No need for my 7:00 alarm. She was so excited to go on the Mickey Boat! Here is Addison waiting to leave.
We finished packing the last of our things and were on the road by 8:00. We stopped at McDonalds for breakfast and Wal Mart to pick up my book because my Wal Mart was out of stock. I wasnt sure if I would actually have time to read it, but you never know!
Addison fell asleep in the car and as we got closer we woke her up to see the Mickey Boat.
We got to the port around 10:00 and were told the parking lot wasnt open yet but we could pull up and unload our stuff. A guy came over to our trunk and took out our ONE suitcase and asked if that was it. Yes sir it is! My goal was to pack as light as possible and get all of our stuff in one suitcase. My dad would be proud!
While Ryan parked the car, Addison and I called my mom. I think Addison was too excited to talk and she just sat in her stroller staring at the ship.
It felt like it was taking Ryan FOREVER to park the car. I called to see if he was on his way back and when he finally arrived I was like Great, it took you so long were going to get like a 4 or 5 boarding card. I knew I wouldnt mind if we did because I have heard the boarding process goes by fast, but still, I wanted a low number
We went through the security check point, Addison told everyone she was going on the Mickey Boat. Her excitement made me even more excited! When we went to check in, look at what we got
YAY!!! I got a 2. I was so excited. Check in was easy and afterward we just chilled, watched Cinderella, and took turns taking Addison to look around the terminal. During this time we got to meet the Big Cheese himself. Perfect timing if I might say, we were 2nd or 3rd in line!
After what seemed like a short wait, they started boarding. It was kind of annoying because a bunch of people with threes and fours were blocking the way so we had to push our way through. After we finally made our way up there we walked through the Mickey Ears and I couldnt stop smiling. We stopped for our family boarding photo and then walked across on to the most WONDERful ship ever!
Up Next: Our first magical afternoon and evening on board!
