Florida 2010 – Cruising, Harry Potter World and More!

It’s vacation time! We went to HOT Orlando Florida for our summer break!
When we landed it was raining, and a lovely 115 degrees outside ๐Ÿ™‚

Here we are at Bahama Breeze!
Dadu and Mama ate here on their 1st anniversary dinner.

On our way to the cruise ship.

The second day, we drove in HEAVY Pouring Rain to get to our CRUISE!
We made it ๐Ÿ™‚ Here are Daddy and I ready to explore the SENSATION!

The first evening on the ship we went to a dance party to meet all the kids on the ship.

I also got to dance with Fun Ship Freddie. But he was kinda scary to me!

The first port was FreePort. Mama and Daddy left me on the ship to have fun instead of dragging me out in the rain. And boy did it rain and rain and rain!

Here I am hanging out with the other kids on the ship watching a movie!

Here’s Daddy at dinner “working it out” with the Pirate of the ship ๐Ÿ™‚

Handsome cutie pie ready for dinner time!

That evening we cleaned up and went for a lovely dinner on the ship.

There we are. I was the prince of the table!

I started getting a little tired of posing for pictures.

There are my Mambu and Dadu!

Love.

There’s me! Don’t you love the smile?

We got some rest and then arrived in Nassau. I’m very independent, so here I am walking around town ๐Ÿ™‚

Mama just loved this BEAUTIFUL painting while we were visiting Atlantis so she had to get a picture of me in it ๐Ÿ™‚

Atlantis was AWESOME! We can’t wait to plan a family vacation where we can spend more time here.

CHEESE!

There were fishies and water everywhere!

Mama and Daddy came here for their honeymoon and now we get to take a picture with me, the prince of the family!

Our last day of the cruise was at sea.
We did a lot of eating, sleeping and hanging out!

I drank a TON OF CHOCOLATE MILK on the ship! DELICIOUS!

Daddy and I enjoyed the balcony and the lovely ocean water.

Daddy and I enjoyed playing Zombies & Plants on our iPAD!
We won the game! “I don’t like zombies on my lawn!”

Here we are having or evening Chocolate Milk! Cheers!
I’m wearing my pirate hat that I made at the kids club ๐Ÿ™‚

After 4 days on the ship we got back into Orlando and were ready
for a little bit of RELAXATION!

Harry Potter World Here we COME!

After we relaxed, went to the pool for a bit weย freshenedย up and went across the way to Islands of Adventure!!

Mommy was so excited! We got to see Harry Potter WORLD! YEAH!!!
Here we are in front of the Hogwarts Express!

There’s the beautiful town of Hogsmead. Don’t let the snow fool you! Still a blistering 110 out.

Amazing candies at Honeydukes!

And all kinds of great toys at Zonkos Joke Shop!

This way to Hogwarts!

We took a walking tour of Hogwarts. It was AWESOME! The pictures behind us talk just like in the books.

After Mama and Daddy took turns on the Harry Potter Ride, Daddy discovered that I was tall enough to go on the Flight of the Hippogriff!

It was a BIG Coaster! Here we go!

Yup! That’s right Daddy and I went on my first roller coaster ride together all at the age of 2!
I was quite during the ride, with little yells but as soon as I got off, I said “LETS GO AGAIN!”

Afterwards we were hungry! So we went to the amazing Three Broomsticks for an early dinner.
Daddy had to go to another land because they don’t serve anything but butterbear, cider and juice inside of Hogsmead. No sodas allowed!

Pretty cool that we can say “Yeah we’ve eaten at The Three Broomsticks” and visited “Dervish and Banges!”

The Three Broomsticks. A totally magical place.

Either will soda…

Please respect the spell limits.

Even the postcards had their very own “hand inked” Hogsmeade Owl Post.

After we left The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, Daddy played a basketball game. You get a toy for each basket you make.
Dada made ALL 3!!! So, as you can see; I got a blue teddy bear, a red dragon, and aย leopard! THANKS DADA!
*We had to stuff these in my suitcase to get them home! That was fun!

The next day, we went to Downtown Disney. Apparently Mickey Mouse and all his friends go their to PARTY! Here I am just hanging out with Mickey and Minnie.

Donald Duck wasn’t too happy with me since Daisy let Dadu and I take a picture with her ๐Ÿ˜‰

It’s kinda hot…actually really hot. Daddy and I bought ice cream, but the second we tried to eat it, it fell off the cone because it melted sooo fast! I got a whole set of Toy Story Toys!!!

The last day of our trip. We were pretty tired and it was still hot outside, so we decided to go to the local shopping in Tampa! Here I am hanging out with one of the girls in Old Navy ๐Ÿ™‚

Here’s Mambu hanging out with her buddy Mr. Potato Head!

We met Buzz Lightyear! To Infinity and BEYOND!

I’m back at the lovely hotel enjoying my new toys in my huge hotel!
Ahhhh life is GREAT!

Here’s our view from Tampa. Super nice, but tooo hot to do much!

We had a GREAT Trip, but boy am I sure glad to be back home!
There’s no place like home! See you all soon. Love, Jatin.
