EPCOT by Ryan
This morning my mom woke me up so I could walk Mousse. Once we had breakfast we took the golf cart to the bus station and got on the bus to EPCOT. After we got through security we rode Mission Space. It was the most intense ride I've ever been on. We went to the clinic afterwards because I skinned my knee. After I got the bandage we walked around the different countries and sampled different food. We had lunch in France then we walked to the Land and rode the Soaring ride. We did several more rides then we went to Downtown Disney. I got some more Legos for my project and we went to the candy store. We came back home, had dinner, and tried the Harry Potter all flavor jellybeans. Dad got a rotten egg flavored jellybean. After I read some of my book I went to bed.

Universal Studios by Ryan
This morning my mom woke me up and told me that we were going to Universal Studios. I was so excited when I realized that they have a Harry Potter ride. After breakfast we got in the truck and drove to Universal. When we arrived we rode the Harry Potter ride first. It actually felt like we were flying during the ride. Once we finished we rode a small roller coaster. My mom and I decided to go on the bigger roller coaster so we did. It was the biggest and best roller coaster I've ever been on and it went upside down. I did that ride five more times that day.
After that Kylie got a pearl necklace and we went on several more rides. Once we were done at Universal Studios for the day we went home and I worked on my Lego creations. And then Kylie got eaten by a dinosaur. :)?

Walt by Ryan (Nov 1)
This morning we got up a little later than usual and got onto the next bus to Hollywood Studios. We went on several rides like the Rockin Roller Coster. That was the first roller coster that went upside down I've been on. After that we went to the Walt Disney museum. Here are some of the things I learned about him. Walt Disney was the guy who created Mickey Mouse. Mickey was not his first good idea though. He also created Oswald the lucky rabbit but lost Oswald do to a contract dispute. He created Mickey on his way home from New York after he lost Oswald. Walt had a big success with Mickey and created many more characters like Snow White and the seven Dwarfs. When he took his daughters out on family days he realized that there was not a family place where they could all have fun so he created Disney Land. After he finished Disney Land he decided to make another family park called Disney World. He never got to see Disney World get completed because of his death but his brother (and best friend) finished it for him. He also changed the name to Walt Disney World in honor of his brother.
After the museum we went to the Lego shop and then had cheeseburgers for dinner. It was a fun day.

Catch Up thru Nov 3
Since my kiddos have been doing such a good job with the blogs I have let them do all the work! We have been having a great time. Tim had to take off for a few days but arrived back late Tuesday. He left early Sunday morning so the kids and I went to Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom and Epcot on the 3 days he was away. We were ready for a break but Tim was ready to see the sights.
On Halloween we took the day off of doing anything Disney, went to the grocery store and then a stop to The Halloween Megastore! We had tickets (with the rest of the people in the surrounding Orlando area) to Disney's Not So Scary Halloween Party for Halloween evening. It seemed like the greatest idea ever. But back to the costume shopping.....last minute choices are never a good thing but we were all happy with how it ended up. Kylie REALLY wanted to be a nurse but they didn't have that one in her size. This was a very good thing because, in the end, she came up with the idea that she and I should have matching costumes. The nurse costumes for women are not quite ones that go with the Disney scene! She settled on a ladybug costume and I was fortunate enough to get one that matched. I could wear exercise pants with it and sneakers so I was a very happy camper. Ryan finally got to be a scary guy so I guess this means that he is growing up. Tim was "casual wear" Dracula sans makeup and in jeans.
As for the actual event, it was chilly, crazy crowded and we tortured the kids by watching the parade instead of being at the RV camp where it was Trick or Treating galore. The highlight was watching the fireworks on the boat ride home along with the water parade.
We went to Hollywood Studios on Thursday and then Universal Studios on Friday. That place was a blast! We did some crazy roller coasters there and also the infamous Harry Potter ride. Kylie had her eyes closed the majority of the time but didn't come out mentally damaged - she asked beforehand if it was scary and we said no. I was thinking more of H.P. number 1 as opposed to the darkness of the movies that followed. Oops! I was a bit off! We are going back over to Universal on Monday - Tim and I want to do that ride again! The Butter Beer was rather tasty too!
Today we went to Epcot. Kylie somehow managed to have a run-in with Sleeping Beauty. She grabbed Kylie by the hand and took her on a walk. I was thinking Sleeping Beauty would take great care of her and we should go see the sights for a few hours but we decided to follow along behind.
A stroll thru Downtown Disney and another visit to the Lego Shop was the end to another long day. Mousse is being a very good sport but we will not abandon him tomorrow for as long. It will be a half day at Magic Kingdom so that Tim can go there. This has been fun but I'm ready to go back to a more "normal" lifestyle!
