Wish Trip Day 6/7

Day 6
Our last day!  While we still had one more pass for Disney World, we were feeling pretty tired and content.  We decided to spend the morning at the village, and see how we felt in the afternoon.

We had breakfast at the Gingerbread House, and headed to the Amberville Train Station to play with the remote control boats and games.  Nathan and I rode the train 4 times, and he had one more ride with Daddy.  We explored Mayor Claytons house too!  Stopped into the GKTW gift shop for a few things before we all hit the pool.

The train - Nathan's favourite!

Charlotte loved driving the boats!

After the pool, we decided we would head to Downtown Disney for lunch and a couple last souvenirs.  We ended up at the Dino Cafe, which is the same concept as Rainforest Cafe except with Dinosaurs.  Kids loved it of course and ate well.  We went to the Magic of Disney (World's largest collection of Disney items).  Kids picked out their last souvenirs and then we stopped at the outlets on the way home since Nathan fell asleep in the car.  Stefan got a couple pairs of running shoes and I grabbed a sweater.  We headed home for a quick bite to eat before heading to the Pirate and Princess Party.  Kids had a blast at the party - a great ending to a fantastic trip!  We went back to our Villa for Ms. Merry to tuck the kids into bed.

Day 7
We were up at 4am Florida time to head to the airport for our 7:30 flight.  Dropping of the rental car (no charge, even on an empty tank!) was a piece of cake.  Flight 1, 2.5 hours to Dallas was a breeze as both kids fell asleep.  We had just enough time in the airport to grab a coffee and snack before boarding flight 2 home.  Just over 4 hours.  Nathan was still very tired, and had MANY moments of screaming/crying.  The seat belt sign was on pretty much the entire trip which meant I was trying to keep him seated.  It was painful, and I was traumatized from being the one on the plane with the screaming child for quite a while after our trip.  Everyone around us was very patient, but I felt bad for the people in front of us, as Nathan kicked the seats a lot.  We were pretty happy to be home, and everyone had a very good sleep!

We are so very thankful to Make-a-Wish for this once in a lifetime trip!  And to the amazing Give Kids the World Village for the unforgettable stay!
