Day 1 Disney Cruise - Port Canaveral

We have left our apartment now and have now boarded the Disney Dream Cruise Liner at Port Canaveral.  Just across from the ship you can see the Kennedy Space Centre and Cape Canaveral. It was from here man left for the moon and the Space Shuttles launched from.

Wednesday 30th October - Wedding pavilion & return to EPCOT

Today I went to see where my Mummy and Daddy got married back in the year 2000.  The Wedding Pavilion at Walt Disney World is on the Seven Seas Lagoon and, from the Altar, through the window, in the distance, you can see Cinderella's Castle.  Mummy and Daddy also have a brick laid in the ground outside that commemorates the occasion.  After, we headed back over to EPCOT to do everything we didn't have time for the other day.

Here I am showing off Mummy & Daddy's Wedding Brick

This is it

This is the Wedding Pavilion where they got married

You can see the Castle through the Altar window

Tomorrow we are off to Port Canaveral to set sail on the Disney Dream to the Bahamas for 3 Days.  Internet connection will probably be difficult to get, but I will try to update as and when I can.  We get back to Florida on Sunday Morning and if I have not managed to update the blog while on the cruise, then there will be a big update made then.

Tuesday 29th October - Back to the Magic Kingdom

Today I realised that I am now just over 44 inches which allows me to go on some of the bigger rides!  We went for another explore of the Magic Kingdom as we only really had a quick look around last week.  I went on most of the rides including all of the mountains (Splash Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain and for the first time, Space Mountain.  I really love all of the thrill rides and must have been a handful for Mummy and Daddy afterwards as I was jumping around and could not keep still!

Here we are entering Walt Disney World

Monday 28th October - Daytona Speedway and Beach!

I have had THE most AMAZING DAY EVER!

Today I was lucky enough to be taken to the Daytona Motor Racing Speedway.  Home of the American racing series NASCAR!

As you all know I love transportation but I especially love NASCAR.  It has been my dream to visit Daytona and today my dream came true.  We took a tour which brought us onto the track itself.  The bends are so steeply banked.  The tour guide said then if you were going any slower than 70MPH you would just slide down to the bottom.  NASCAR racers take the turns at 190MPH!!!!  I got to have my photo taken on the podium on Victory Lane where Jimmie Johnson stood a few months ago after winning the Daytona 500 in his number 48 NASCAR.  When a driver wins the Daytona 500 the car is kept at the track for the following year to be displayed for all to see.  I got to see this years wining car and it even bears my favourite number...48!

We then carried on a couple of miles to the famous Daytona Beach.  The beach actually has a road down it that anybody can drive down.  

Wow...I hope you like the photos.  I am off to bed...I've got so much to dream about!

Sunday 27th October - Disney's Hollywood Studios & EPCOT

Sorry I didn't get a chance to update you all when we got back last night.  It was late and I had to go straight to bed.  We had a full day out starting off at the Hollywood Studios and then took a boat from there to EPCOT.

Proudly posing by the Hollywood Studios Bus Information sign 

Here I am at the entrance to the park

I got to meet the real Lightning McQueen and Mater from the movie Cars
