#NikonMOMents, part IV: Orlando, Florida (sponsored post)

By Leave a Comment

Looking back on 2014, there was one common thread that tied our year together as a family: travel. Whether it was Punta Cana (where we visited both the Hard Rock and Club Med) or the several Southern Ontario road trips we took — not to mention my jaunts to Aruba and New York — we wrapped up the year as we started it, travelling together and making incredible memories.

Even a one-night stay in a Toronto airport hotel is enough to excite my kids, but faced with a surprise trip to Orlando, Fla., their reaction was priceless:

OK, so The K Man’s reaction was priceless and Miss Q decided to act like a seven month old who can’t actually speak real words. Perhaps I shouldn’t have confused her by putting jammies and socks in with her surprises. Lesson learned.

Neither Big B nor I had been to Orlando since we were little kids, so this adventure was as exciting for us as it was for them. And with nine months of planning behind us, four carry-ons, two iPods (with headphones!) and one shared piece of luggage — we were off.

You can also read some of my top tips for visiting Orlando over at CanadianFamily.ca; but in the meantime, here’s a rundown of everything noteworthy that we did, ate and saw (all captured on my trusty Nikon D3300!). Think of it as the ultimate highlight reel for everything AWESOME in Orlando:

  5. Holy moly. What a trip. I almost don’t need to go. I feel like I’ve seen it all through your beautiful pictures and detailed descriptions. Love the fam picture btw! So cool that Nikon had photo tips throughout the park. Glad to see you all had a blast (as if you wouldn’t).
