We took Saturday off to enjoy some time at the pool. The idea was to slow down a bit and rest but with a big and small water slide that really didn't happen. What did happen was a full day of swimming in the pools by both girls.
There was even a baby pool that the girls played in some. Mom and dad liked this the best since we could watch from the lounge chair. Sadly there was no pool bar service though. I guess it was just as well with our fast moving girls.
The room had a bunkbed and a trundle for the girls. Both girls were very excited to have their own bunks. The first night Ashton slept there without a hitch but the second night she hit her head and didn't really want anything to do with it. So the bunks became a place to play during the day and then sleeping happened on the bottom bunk and trundle combination
We had a balcony that overlooked the pool. The best balcony story happened with Jacqueline getting a time out there in the evening. She was only in a diaper and she decided to yell (loudly) I'm cold! from the balcony so we couldn't really go through with a full time out for fear of having someone turn us in.
The last day at the park we found one of Jacqueline's favorite rides (Pooh). Actually, most rides, after completing them she'd ask to go again, so it was hard to really know what was the favorite.One she talked about several times was the Buzz Lightyear ride where you got to use blasters and get points. She wanted to get her own blaster after that, I'm guessing I'll regret that moment of weakness.
The big event of the last day was the Princess lunch. Both girls were very excited to see the princesses up close. They do such a nice job stopping at each table and spending a few minutes with each girl.
Surprisingly, it is also one of the better meal experiences in the park as well. Jacqueline was very happy to show everyone her "Rose dress".
We even managed to find Alladin and Jasmine late in the day. Of course this always brings memories of Jordyn's Jasmine experience where she was completely unable to speak when she saw her.
The last day we went until Jacqueline completely collapsed into the stroller (I'm tired mom) letting Bob and Ashton do a few bigger rides. Ashton was very anxious to push the envelope and show she was big enough for the big kids rides. So far Star Tours was the one she was most proud of. She was up for the Matterhorn but it was a huge line and we overruled it on her.
Jacqueline did the Toon Town roller coaster with us but announced afterward that it made "my tummy sore" (the first day she said it was too loud).
I think we should have listened to her since she woke up in the middle of the night getting sick (oops sorry hotel housecleaning). She got sick again this morning but rallied and had an excellent day, even napping agreeably on the flight home.
