I forget to write this post as it was a busy travel day.
Today was our last day!!!! It was very sad.
We woke up at 4AM to go to the airport. I had about 5 hours of sleep so I slept on the one hour drive to the airport. I also slept almost the whole plane ride which was great! (The flight was almost 4 hours and e flew back to Grand Forks.) I also found that I liked this flight a lot better than the first one; I didn't feel as sick. A great answer to prayers!
Once we had landed and had gotten all of our luggage into our vehicle, we drove to Target to pick up groceries. Then we drove to Pizza Ranch for lunch where Olivia served us all (it was a buffet).
Grandma and Grandpa drove home after lunch while our family went to Scheels. Only Dad, Olivia, Jacob, and I went in (Sophia wasn't feeling 100% and Mom stayed in the vehicle with her). We played some games and then picks up drinks from Starbucks for the ride home.
We then drove 2 hours to get home. It was a safe, and very fun trip! I am so thankful to be able to go on vacation like this. I can't wait for the next time we travel!
Breakfast: At the house - banana, toast, milk
Lunch: Pizza Ranch in Grand Forks - pizza, cheese pizza sticks, root beer, fries, dessert pizza, ice cream
Supper: At home - grilled cheese sandwiches, water

Orlando, Florida: Day Fifteen
Today the plan was for us all to go to Blizzard Beach. But then we pulled up and they were closed due to technical difficulties. So we decided to go mini golfing at Winter Summerland again. This time, we did the summer course (it's all right beside Blizzard Beach) instead. And also, we switched teams. Me, Sophia, Mom, and Dad were a team, and Grandma, Grandpa, Olivia, and Jacob were a team. Olivia got 3 holes-in-one today, and I got one!!
After mini golfing, we picked up lunch and went back to the house to relax around the pool all afternoon. Some of us have been playing Keep it Up throughout this trip, and today we set our highest record at 125!!
In the evening, we went for supper and then to the outlets.
Breakfast: At the house - buns with jam, milk
Lunch: Chick-fil-A at the house - chicken burger, banana, iced coffee, or age juice, chips
Supper: Texas Roadhouse - mini hamburgers, buns, fries, rice, lemonade

Orlando, Florida: Day Fourteen
Today we all went to Epcot. As soon as the park opened, we went straight to Test Track. That's my only "must" ride. The others I'd be fine with skipping if that meant more time in the countries (Soarin' is shut down for reme bastions otherwise that's my #1 ride at Epcot). The rest of my family really enjoy the other rides, and I like them too, but I would just rather have more time in each country instead. We went on Living with the Land and Spaceship Earth and the Finding Nemo ride. Then we walked around the countries. Again, I would love to spend more time in those than we do. We watched an a cappella group sing in the USA pavilion, and also a really amazing balancing act in the France pavilion. The Canada one seemed to sell a lot of food and stuff that we've never heard of. There seemed to be a lot of Quebec and First Nations things. I liked those things, I just wish there would be other things representing the other provinces or nationalities.
In the afternoon, we picked up lunch and then relaxed around the pool.
In the evening, we went for supper at Downtown Disney, and then went back to Epcot to watch the fireworks and lights show. It was very good!
Breakfast: At the house - toast, scrambled eggs, orange juice
Lunch: Jimmy John's at the house - Slim One (ham and cheese), orange juice, orange
Supper: Splitsville at Downtown Disney - meat lovers, and pepperoni and bacon pizza, root beer

Orlando, Florida: Day Thirteen
Today was Mom's 39th birthday!!
We all went out for breakfast, then mini golfing at Winter Summerlamd which is right beside Blizzard Beach. We chose to do the winter course instead of the summer one. It was very fun! Everybody got at least one hole-in-one on the last one (except for mom) but it was an easy one. Aegeeybody except me and Olivia got at least one more on other holes. Grandma, Grandpa, Sophia, and I were a team (called ourselves the BEES (Betty, Edmer, Emma, Sophia) and buzzed and turned in circles and flapped our hands like wings when someone on our team got a hole-in-one).
We then picked up lunch and went back to the house where we relaxed by the pool all afternoon.
In the evening, we gave Mom her presents, then went out for supper (which was suuuuuper good), then rode the Orlando Eye which was, I'll admit, a little nerve wracking if you stood near the edge of the cart, but it was supper cool.
After that, we went back to house, and ate some leftover Krispy Kreme donuts.
Breakfast: Cracker Barrel - French toast, milk, scrambled eggs, sausage
Lunch: Chick-fil-A at the house - chicken burger, iced coffee, orange
Supper: Charly's Steakhouse - steak done medium well, HUGE fries, buns (veeeery good), Pepsi

Orlando, Florida: Day Eleven
Today we (everyone except Grandma and Grandpa) went to Disney's Hollywood Studios. Dad, Sophia, and I separated from Mom, Jacob, and Olivia right away, and we went straight to Rock and Rollercoaster standby. We didn't wait very long there. Then we went to the Tower of Terror standby. Then we met up with the others and got in the standby line for Rock and Rollercoaster but left soon after because it was too long and we needed to use our Tower of Terror fastspsses soon. Mom, Jacob, and Olivia decided to not go on Tower of Terror so Dad, Sophia, and I took their wristbands and went on it without them. Then we used our own wristbands to go again. We ending up riding Tower of Terror 3 times today! Then we all used our fastspsses on Rock and Rollercoaster. Then we walked through this "One Man's Dream" thing where it had a bunch of displays of all that Walt Disney did and about him. From there we went into a theatre to watch a longer "The Jungle Book" preview (live action based on the animated classic). It was really good! Then we watched the Indiana Jones stunt show which was really cool! We also got some Mickey Mouse revels while we were watching the show.
After that, we picked up lunch, went back to the house, and then relaxed around the pool all afternoon.
In the evening, we went out for supper and shopped in the Orlando Eye area.
Breakfast: At the house - toast, milk
Lunch: Chick-fil-A at the house - chicken burger, orange juice, Doritos, and later a root beer by the pool
Supper: Carrabba's - pasta, chicken fingers, bread, Coke, and later a peanut butter milkshake
