The perfect freak outs!

Ever wondered how little girls dream? Well... I can take you into their dream which was filled with magic, adventure, excitement & thrill :-)
Dec 2014 
Yuvi had a week off before he had to switch to the next client. We decided to fly to Florida along with Kavya & Oviya to escape the horrible winter in our area. This place is supposed to satisfy every tourist in every way with it's tropical climate, beaches & water activities, theme parks & resorts, shopping & dining  and lots more. We roamed, saw couple of places, got exhausted, and sat thinking what was in store next. That's when we received a call from the client saying the joining date is rescheduled after 20 days. But, we had to go back in the non-refundable returning flight. The trip was an unplanned one which went in the way we least expected. While in Florida, the kids got sick, didn't eat or drink enough and they couldn't even see their favorite Disney characters in the Disney World. The next couple of days didn't carry the exciting memories from the trip. We felt like a great part was missing which made me think CrAzY :-P. 
Yup... Very crazy! 
We decided to go again, but this time, by road. This became a 12 day trip with four days on road to and fro.
No... No... we didn't lose our mind :-)! Our ultimate adventure started right there...
Hang on...
1.. 2... 3
Off we went!!
With dreams in the eyes
Laughter around the roads
Carrying memories all the way...

                        


What we did : 
Relaxed and roamed in the beaches
Got soaked in the water
Enjoyed all sorts of hotels with pools
Stood in queues for rides
Danced in the crowd
Walked hand in hand throughout the theme parks
Ate like a pig
& slept like a log :-D

                          
                       
                     


Walt Disney World - Almost every kid's dream is fulfilled here. So was Kavya & Oviya's dream. The land of fairy tales welcomed us with the dramatic, grand, enchanting entry. Though it took 3 days to at least cover one of their parks, it was worth every bit. Just the brief interaction with Mickey & his friends created an unforgettable memory in the minds of the girls. We were also celebrating their belated birthday in the park. So, both were melting like an ice cream when Mickey sang them a 'Happy Birthday' song with all it's sweetness :-). The Disney parade & the fireworks were creating magic everywhere. The huge castle was glowing with sparkling lights. This was a visual, sensory, physical treat for all of us. The kids were overjoyed, elated and frenzied. 

                       

                       


The remaining days went by visiting one of the water theme parks of Disney, Lego land for toddlers & the downtown Disney for shopping. Everything carried Disney characters which made the shopping experience more intense. Kavya & Oviya wanted every Mickey they saw to fill their world with the same magic they experienced :-P. Finally we were able to watch the spectacular New Year fireworks that sparkled 360 degrees filling the night sky. 



Hmmm... So that's how we spent our holidays like the most happiest people in the entire world. Then came the reality ;-P.  With great mementos & happy hearts, we rode for couple of days & returned to where we started - our home, sweet home :-). Hope the fresh imprints in the hearts of Kavya & Oviya remain unfaded. The autographs from their favorite characters, videos and pictures should help here.  

Then I thought,  "Even if I was a pauper, I should save to go on a vacation where I could be a Princess at least for a day" :-D.
