All of our trips to Disney World are extremely fun, but this one stands out because we took Jennifer's little brother, Jason, with us. This was Jason's first trip to Disney, and he was about to burst all the way to Orlando. This year, we stayed at the Buena Vista Resort at Downtown Disney. We arrived on the morning of August 14, and took our traditional nap before going out for the evening. When we were at Downtown Disney, Jason bought a Fantasia Mickey hat from the World of Disney that he wore for the remainder of the trip. We shopped around at the Marketplace and West Side, before eating dinner. We ate at the Rainforest Cafe, and sat outside alongside the water instead of inside. Jennifer and I were laughing at Jason becasue he ordered the $18 Tribal Salmon and he was only 13 years old. He didn't even eat it, he gave is to the ducks that were swimming around

The next day, we went to the Magic Kingdom. We had a great day, because it wasn't too hot. We all had fun, and Jason got to meet Mickey Mouse at the Toontown Fair. Sorry, we don't have that picture because Jason does. I was dissapointed because the Carousel of Progress was closed, and that's one of my favorite rides. We watched the SpectroMagic Parade that night and better yet, didn't run out of video tape or batteries the whole day. The next day we took the day off to relax before going to MGM Studios the following day. The plays were fantastic, especially the Hunchback of Notre Dame. Jason loved the Tower of Terror and the Rockin Roller Coaster. Fantasmic was the perfect way to end the day and the trip.
