WDW Here We Come...

Thursday January 27th Kacie drove home so she could fly out with us the next day to Orlando.  She arrived around 4:00.  She had a little visit with Grandpa and Grandma then we finished packing, had dinner and I went to bed around 9:00pm.  We got up around 4:00 am and Mom drove us to the airport which was nice to not have to pay for parking.  We got there around 6:00am to catch our 7:40 flight to Denver CO.  We then had a 5 hour layover which was brutal.  We had lunch there and while we were waiting at our gate we realized they changed it so we had to go to our new gate to catch our flight to Houston, TX.  We were originally suppose to flight straight to Orlando from Denver but they changed that too which was really frustrating.  Then once we got to Houston they made us get off to catch another plane to Orlando which was another change for us.  The flight across the Gulf of Mexico was pretty cool seeing all the coastal towns.  We finally made it to Orlando and I was so relieved we got all our luggage.  I was sure it was going to be lost due to all the changes.  Kacie paid for a shuttle for us to the POP Century Resort which was around $120 round trip.  It was so nice to not have to rent a car and we either rode a bus or took the sky-liner to the parks from our resort.  That was one of the major reasons why we picked this resort plus it was one of the cheaper resorts you could stay at.  It was pretty cute with all the decade decor.  Our room number was 7311 which was in the 80's section.  I think we arrived around 10:30 eastern time.  That was such a long day.  Another perk to staying at the resorts is you can get on at 7:00am to request the lightning lane for the more popular rides.





It was pretty fun how our staircase was in a giant Rubik's cube.
