Orlando, Florida: Day Four

Today everyone except my grandparents went to Blizzard Beach. Summit Plummet was closed unfortunately for Dad and Sophia, so instead of heading there first, we went on the family river raft slide....three times in a row. We took the "ski lift" twice and walked up the stairs once. Then we went on a tube closed-in slide (I forget what it's called). Then Dad, Sophia, and I went on some slides where e raced each other on purple mats while Mom, Jacob, and Olivia went to the kid area. Then we all met up and went around the lazy river once (Sophia leading us as per usual). 

We went back to the house after Blizzard beach and ate lunch and relaxed around the pool for the rest of the afternoon. 

Around 6PM we left for supper, and then after supper we went shopping at different outlets than the ones we went to on Tuesday. I got some new shorts, some workout tank-tops, and a t-shirt.

After the outlets, we came back to the house.

Breakfast: At the house - toast, orange juice

Lunch: Chick-fil-A at the house - chicken burger, apple slices, orange juice

Supper: Giordano's - pepperoni pizza, cheese bread, Pepsi

Orlando, Florida: Day Three

Today was my 15th birthday!!

We woke up early and went to Disney's Hollywood Studios. When we got there, we went straight to Toy Story Mania and waited about an hour (!!). We then used our fastpasses at Tower of Terror (which is one of my favourite rides). Then we went on The Great Big Movie ride, and then we used our fast passes for Rock n' Rollercoaster (my other favourite ride). Sophia and I used our grandparents fast passes again for that ride.

While we were there, there were these cast members that were acting kinda like paparazzi. They were so funny!!! They would shout at random people saying "hey look! It's Zac Efron!" There were these guys that the "paparazzi" "thought" were Nick Jonas, Justin Timberlake, and Harry Styles who had formed together to become One Direction. And the guys got all in to it and even sang a song! They were actually pretty good!

We headed back to the house at around 2PM and picked up lunch and McFlurries along the way. then we relaxed around the pool for the rest of the afternoon.

In the evening, we went for supper, and then to Target, and then back to the house where I got some birthday presents.

Breakfast: At the house - toast, or age juice
Lunch: Chick-fil-A (at the house) - chicken burger, French fries, orange juice
Supper: Cracker Barrel - corn, French fries, fried chicken tenderloins

Orlando, Florida: Day Two

Today we relaxed around the house. I slept until about 9AM but only got out of bed closer to 10. We ate breakfast outside, and then sat around the pool for a while.

Around 12:30 we decided to go for a walk around the resort. It was pretty humid outside and we were sweaty and tired by the time we got back to the house. It turned out that we only walked 2.4 km; we thought we walked a lot further than that!

After the walk, we ate lunch around the pool. We then lay around the pool for the rest of the aftwrnoon. I read my storybook ('Rejoice' by Karen Kingsbury with Garey Smalley).

It was a cloudy day and started raining with a small thunderstorm just before we headed out for supper.

After supper, we went to the outlets and I got a new pair of shorts, and some souvenirs for my friends.

We went back to the house after shopping, and ate some ice cream.

Breakfast: At the house - toast, eggs, milk
Lunch: At the house - sandwich, orange juice, apple slices, Pringles
Supper: Buffalo Wild Wings - sweet bbq wings, French fries

Orlando, Florida: Day One

Trip travelled with: my parents, my siblings, and my dad's parents

Today, we woke up at 6AM to drive to Grand Forks from where we boarded about a 3 1/2 hour plane ride to Orlando, Florida. We arrived at 3:30 our time, 4:30 in Florida.

I get air sick so I took some gravol beforehand and slept for a good majority of the plane ride (although near the end I could not wait to land).

We rented an eight-seated vehicle and drove an hour to the house we rented for 17 days. We then unpacked and went out for supper.

After supper, the girls went back to the house to sit in the hot tub while the guys picked up groceries.

Breakfast: Denny's in Grand Forks - toast with jam, bacon, eggs, and chocolate milk
Lunch: On the plane - chocolate chocolate chip muffin, and water
Supper: Chili's - cheese quesadillas, French fries, and chocolate milk
