Emma's Vacation Blog http://emmaflorida.posterous.com Emma's blog about our vacation to Florida posterous.com Tue, 04 Aug 2009 20:20:33 -0700 August 2 http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/august-2 http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/august-2 We went to Kevin & Kathy's church. Later we went to another beach. It was better than the other beach because there were more waves and more kids. And I built a sand castle. It was so, so cool. After we changed clothes, we walked on the beach and found shells. It was so, so fun.

Tue, 04 Aug 2009 20:17:23 -0700 August 1 http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/august-1 http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/august-1 We went to Aquatica. We went down big water slides. We had fun, fun, fun. We floated in a river. It was really, really fun. And we played in a wave pool. And we rode in these tube things, and I fell out, but I could stand. And it was so, so fun.

 We went to Sea World, and we even got to touch and feed dolphins! It was so, so much fun! The dolphins felt like rubber. It was so, so cool. And we got to see baby dolphins. They were so, so cute. Only the mommies were in there, and they poked their heads out. The babies didn't; they just swam, swam wherever they wanted.

 On the way to Kevin & Kathy's I got a dolphin. He has blue eyes just like me. His name is Dolphie - I got to name him. I love him so, so, so much!

 Mom note: The adult dolphins in the dolphin nursery with the babies were all female - that's what she meant by "only the mommies were in there." And Emma made a point of making sure I included all three "so's" in the last sentence. :)

Fri, 31 Jul 2009 18:59:52 -0700 July 31 http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/july-31 http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/july-31 Me and Daddy went swimming, and then after dinner me and Mommy went swimming. I got a little kitty who has wide eyes. His name is China, and he reminds me of Daddy. He's a leopard. We went on Test Track and Mission Space. They were both so, so, so fun! I saw Daisy, Stitch, Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, Goofy, Donald, Lilo, Marie, Max, Mulan, Aurora, and Cinderella. I got my picture taken with all of them except Stitch and maybe Max. I was so brave to hug Minnie and get my picture with all the characters that Mommy and Daddy gave me a Minnie watch. And Mommy and Daddy also helped me pay for China. Mommy and Daddy also got me a Minnie charm and some powdered candy. My favorite part of the day was getting China.

Fri, 31 Jul 2009 18:54:05 -0700 July 30 http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/july-30 http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/july-30 Today I went to Sea World, and I really, really liked it. I even got a shark tooth necklace! Sea World was so much fun. I got to pet a manta ray, and it was really, really slimy. I didn't like the way it felt. I really liked to see them swimming around. We got to see a lot of penguins. I was so, so, so excited! We saw a dolphin show. It was so awesome. I even got to see people swing down from the sky - 5 of them. I loved these crabs - they went up and down. I wanted to go on it again and again. It looks really scary, but it's fun. We're going to go to Sea World another day. I hope I get to ride the crabs again & again & again.

Fri, 31 Jul 2009 18:50:09 -0700 July 28 http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/july-28-5 http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/july-28-5 Today we went to the beach. When we went down the stairs it stunk. There was seaweed in the water, and it felt so, so gross! There were TONS of seashells, and my Dad found a BUNCH of sharks' teeth. I kind of drank some salty water, but I didn't swallow it. And I was so amazed; I thought it was regular water. I met a girl, Hannah, but not Hannah Montana. And we found coquinas, and she found a sand crab, and she let me hold it. The beach was cool.

Tue, 28 Jul 2009 06:41:15 -0700 Princess Emma http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/princess-emma-0 http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/princess-emma-0 I got to be a princess today.  I was so lucky!  i got to keep the things that she used.  I got to sit in the window, and everyone got to see me.  I got to have a fairy godmother.  Her name was Laura.  I took a nap on the way to Kevin & Kathy's.  One of their dogs is named Jasmine.  I like the doggies.

Mom note:  This is yesterday's post; I didn't get around to doing it last night. :)

Sun, 26 Jul 2009 20:00:14 -0700 A Day at Epcot http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/a-day-at-epcot http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/a-day-at-epcot Today I went on Soarin', and I had so much fun I wanted to go again and again and again! We got to go on Nemo again. It rained a LOT today. I got a little red frog, and it has one pink heart and three red hearts. His name is Apples. I named him. The sign said to name him Pickles, but I named him Apples because he was red, and I didn't think pickles were red! And we saw a lady two times dancing on the stage, and I danced with her one time. It was fun. And we saw fireworks. They were good, and we saw fire. We got something for my mask at each country. That was fun. Sent from my iPhone

Sat, 25 Jul 2009 20:10:58 -0700 A Wild Day http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/a-wild-day http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/a-wild-day Today we got to go on a safari. We saw elephants, giraffes, and antelopes. They're all so fun! We went to dinner, and there was a humongous sea turtle in there. And it liked me so much I almost cried. It waved good-bye to me. And we went over a bridge, and we saw a tiger, and it jumped out of the water. Right now we're at Disney World. We went on a water ride, and we got soaked! We saw a LOT of ducks and birds today; I can't even count how much we saw. Daddy and I went swimming, and I really swam. Mommy and Daddy got me a lady bug, and I'm playing with it right now. And Mommy and Daddy got a bracelet for me and Mommy to share. Mom note: The paragraph above is verbatim, as dictated by Emma. It's disjointed enough that I gave up trying to separate it into paragraphs. We ate dinner at the Coral Reef restaurant, where we could see into a monstrous aquarium. A sea turtle was hanging out right near one window for quite a while, so Emma and I went to see it close up. While we were there, it looked up at us. Brian said just as we turned around to go back to our seats it lifted a fin and then lowered it. A few seconds later it swam away. Sent from my iPhone

Fri, 24 Jul 2009 20:17:23 -0700 We Did Lots Today! http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/we-did-lots-today http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/we-did-lots-today We went on Splash Mountain. It was awesome! I want to go on it fifty- hundred times. We had dinner with Winnie the Pooh, and I thought I was scared of Tigger, but I wasn't. He liked me. He spent a little extra time with me. We went on Toy Story Mania, and it was so much fun! We got to shoot things. We saw an Ariel show, and Ursula's pet eels stuck out. And we saw Muppet 3-D. It was so fun. And I loved the Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor! We met Jasmine and Aladdin. And we went on the Jungle Cruise. We saw a parade at night. It was so great! And we went on Honey, I Shrunk the Kids.

 Mom note: She was still scared enough of Tigger to not get her picture taken with him, but she did stand next to me when I stood next to Pooh for a picture. Eeyore and Piglet also came by our table at dinner. We also met Woody & Buzz from Toy Story and Mike & Sully from Monsters, Inc., as well as Pluto & Goofy.

Thu, 23 Jul 2009 20:36:43 -0700 Today's Highlights http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/todays-highlights http://emmaflorida.posterous.com/todays-highlights I loved the Small World ride! I saw Cinderella, her step-mother, her step-sisters, and Prince Charming at dinner. I love the Peter Pan ride. I love the horses. I love the Dumbo ride, but we had to wait in line a long time. I was scared of the Haunted Mansion ride - so scared I was about to cry. I loved all the food we had today. I'm going to sleep. Good night. Note from Mom: "the horses" means the carousel. And "Small World" has also been called "Little Town" and "Small Town" today. :) She asked several times to ride it again, so I'm sure we will. Sent from my iPhone
