Disney World - Day 1: Travel

We awoke at 4:00 am to be ready for our 6:00 flight. We had told Max on Friday that in a few days we would be leaving Lily at Grandma's and the three of us would be taking a trip. Not wanting to ruin the surprise, I told he we would be going to Baltimore (because I thought it would be funny to hear a five year old get excited about a trip to Baltimore). Max was excited for the things we told him we would do there; stay in a hotel, go to a zoo, an aquarium, and maybe even visit a gift shop.

On the first leg of our flight, we asked him if he was excited for Baltimore:

Coincidentally our layover was in Baltimore. I knew that the surprise was probably going to be lost on him, and wanted to make sure to video his reaction. We were not expecting his response:

He did get pretty excited the longer he thought about it as it started to set in. We looked at some maps of the park in the plane and by the time we landed the kid was pretty geeked.

We stopped to grab a quick picture in the airport, and headed out to catch our bus for the 'Happiest Place in the World"!
