BACK HOME

Dear All,

just a quick note to thank you all for the wonderful time we spent together.

You guys are awesome! It was great to spend time with you.

Now we will have to go back in 2010 for a ride on MANTA... (is that the right name?)

Lots of love

Roller coasters - here we go!

It's me again! Posting some news while the kids are getting ready for tomorrow's task. We are going to Magic Kingdom where they will play the role of "reporters for a day".

Today it was the day of major roller coasters (Hulk and Duelling Dragons - check out Ilse on her radical ride - hehehehe) and swimming pool.

Looking forward to reading your posts.

XXXx

Sea World

I dashed to the hotel before the kids today. They went to Downtown Disney with Ilse, so I'm taking the opportunity to write a few lines.

It's been a wonderful experience. We've been here for a few days but it seems we have been together for ages.

Today we went to Sea World and we all faced the most threatening challenge so far: the roller coaster Kraken. And we went twice! Very thrilling!

Shamu show was wonderful. I had to spend some time convincing the kids not to sit on the front rows (the soaking zone). After the show they all thanked me for that - people who were sitting there got soaking wet.

I can't believe it is almost time to go back home!

Enjoy the photos.

One day at universal studios

Hi there,
Today we went to the Universal Studios. It was very cool, we went to the Mummy rollercoaster and it had a lot of special effects. And we went to the Simpsons simulator, it was very cool, real and funny. We also went to E.T. Adventure, it was a bit slow, but we liked because in the end the E.T. said our names. We also went to the Men in Black ride, it was like this: we had a gun and we needed to shoot in some aliens and got some points. On the Disaster show they take some people from the audience and they show how they make the films, and in the end we see ourselves in "the movie" ... it's really great, we were screaming when we appeared in "the film". We went to the Twister ride, we steped into one of the most action-packed movies of all time as the swirling vortex of a tornado blowing our away, it was very funny when Luiza fell down because the floor moved. We went to Hard Rock Cafe to have dinner. It was really nice and cool.

Hello everybody !

Today, we went to Animal Kingdom and saw the park's icon: The tree of life (photo). We took lots of photos and went to our first attraction, called It's tought to be a bug! A 3D show about the insects life.
But today's highlight was the roller coaster Expedition Everest that is a high-speed train around the Mount Everest.
We also went to Dinosaur, Kilimanjaro Safaris and the Kali River Rapids(we all got so wet!!)
See you later,
