Babymoon to Disney World

It was so much fun! We have missed that place.
We stayed on property the whole time which was new for us. We loved the free transportation that came with it! It was a stress-free trip.

We started out the first day there at Hollywood Studios to see the Festival of Dancing Lights. We got there on the last day they were doing it. It was cool to see all the Christmas decorations still up everywhere. They took them down as the week passed.
At HS we met up with our good friend, Josh. It was a nice reunion! After we played at the park, Josh was nice enough to take us to Wallgreens to get some things we forgot at home. haha

The next day was Keith's birthday! We went to Epcot for lunch at the Nine Dragons restaurant in China. We then met up with Josh and walked to the Boardwalk. The Disney ID I had was going to expire in a couple days so I needed to get it done asap and my managers would help me. While I was there I saw my favorite manager, Alliette. She was happy to see me. The new manager there said that since I was there he would like me to take some training courses on the computer. I ended up doing one course but it was only because they were yanking my chain about it. After that, I left to hang out with Keith who was patiently waiting for me outside. It was weird that they had me do that after I told them I was on VACATION. haha anyway, whatever it takes to get them off my case I guess.
We went to Epcot again and ran into a bunch of Keith's old managers. It was fun to see Keith so excited to be home.
After Epcot we went to the Magic Kingdom to watch the castle show and fireworks.

On Monday I woke up really early in order to get to Access Control (the place that issues ID cards). I went without Keith so he could sleep in. I had to take the bus to the Magic Kingdom and when I got there the plan was to somehow enter the underground tunnels to get to another bus that would take me to access control. When I got to the MK gates, my ID was not allowing me into the park. I told the ticket taker lady my situation and her manager let me in "to be nice". The park had not yet been officially opened so I had to wait outside and watch the opening ceremony. I was not expecting that. I had never seen it and always wanted to see it. It was so magical! Then the rope dropped and everybody ran into the park! I saw what Mainstreet USA looks like with no one on it during the day, and they had the horse-drawn trolleys out! Again,  I had never seen those in real life. I had to stop and take that all in. I shed a happy tear, and went on my way.
I went to guest relations to see if someone there could help me into the tunnels. I told the cast member behind the counter what the situation was, and he said "I'll do you one better." He had another cast member DRIVE me to Access Control. AMAZING. I would have had to have walked a long way, and I don't know my way around the tunnels. I was so appreciative of that. That's when I said on Facebook that Disney is awesome because they take great care of their CMs. My mom thinks it's because I'm a cute little lady that they did that for me, though. lol
I got my ID just fine, and everything went smoothly. Phew! I was having nightmares about it months before I left.
The rest of the week we spent hanging out at whatever park we felt like, watching shows and riding kiddie rides. It was so much fun though. I'm so grateful for Keith. He didn't even ask to ride a crazy ride while we were there. He just wouldn't think of it. I was the one saying "Can we ride that?" and he would say "Absolutely not." And he never showed any sadness for that. We did ride Big Thunder Mountain, because I insisted I would be fine. Keith was a nervous nelly the whole time though. He's such a sweet guy.
On Friday Keith's friend Wes came to visit, and they rode all the crazy rides that day. I mostly walked around gift shops and took pictures of things. It was a sad day, but I kept cool because, hey, I was at Disney World. There was no need to be depressed. :)

I'm very glad for this trip. We got to experience all kinds of things we had never done, and we got to do it one last time as a couple. The next time we go, we'll have a stroller and all kinds of bulkiness to carry around. Fun!
