Disney downtown

    The evening before our journey back, we went to the disney downtown. I think Niya enjoyed the disney downtown much more than she enjoyed the disney parks.
    We did window shopping of disney stuff , had some hagen-dass ice-cream and took in the nice sights around - the fountains , the lightings , the T-Rex restaurant with dinosaur-themed interiors, the extra-life sized disney character props against which we took snaps - Donald , Mickey , Winnie the pooh. We purchased one with toy with all the characters standing in front of the cinderella castle.
    As part of our walking around, we reached a hanes make t-shirt yourself shop.We had to come up with lines that need to go on the T-Shirt. It is a tough job - so we sat outside on a bench and brainstormed the lines and came up with lines like NIYA - Nice In Yellow Attire with yellow colored t-shirt.That is what we had decided on but the trouble was there was no yellow t-shirt for her size.We had to do it impromptu now and put an image of mickey with her hand on his heart. I still think we did a good job coming up with the line - Niya , my dearest buddy - Mickey.
      That was the finale for a great day for Niya and for us well. I still had the desire for having cuban food and we satisfied this at the bongos restaurant where we had cuban shredded beef which was great.We rushed back to the t-shirt shop to collect the t-shirt - we arrived 5 minutes late but the sales girl was waiting for her.
   Sales personnel were talking about Niya - 'She is so cute' every now and then. Even earlier while she was playing in the clearwater beach , a lady came in and told Divya - 'She is so cute. I just had to come in and tell you that'. This day was completely for our cute Niya.
   Disney downtown does not usually figure in must-visits at Orlando but for kids, it is a must visit.
