Today we spent another day in the Magic Kingdom. Ally desperately wanted to go back, and Mom, Dad, Jay, Barbie, and Alex hadn't been there yet. Evan LOVED the monorail ("choo choo? more choo choo?")
Ally was even ready with her pirate ears! (Although they didn't last long...)
Right inside the gate, we ran into Pinnochio! What a good start.
This time we started in Tomorrowland and tried to hit a few things we missed the first time. After Buzz Lightyear (again) we hopped on the Tomorrowland Transit Authority for a spin above the street. Evan was all over that.
It's not the most exciting ride, but it does go through Space Mountain and (here's the coolest part) it is still under testing so when we went through the mountain we could actually see the actual rollercoaster! It's usually in the dark so you have no idea what it looks like, but here it is:
From there, we moved on to the Racetrack. Ally rode with Papa, and as always loved it.
All I could ever see of Alex was his hat.
Apparantly a seatbelt wasn't enough to keep Evan sitting down. He's been a handful this trip!
From there we went on the Barnstormer in Mickey's Toontown. Both Ally and Alex LOVED it, and Alex went on it again!
Instead of riding the roller coaster again, Ally went in to meet the princesses and the faries. I didn't mind, it was really really cold in there!
Aurora was really sweet and took a lot of time to talk to her. Cinderella was in a bit of a hurry...
Belle was better, but she changed her pose for the photopass - and it was a better one... Hmmm...
I was having trouble with my camera all day (operator error, but I couldn't fix it...) so I didn't bring my flash in for the faries and of course the room was dark. Grrr.... I could adjust, but not fast enough for Rosetta
I had it better for Tinkerbell.
And the best for Silvermist. I just wish they hadn't rushed us along.
We moved on to Winnie the Pooh next, and Evan was in awe.
Afterward, we went to Mickey's Philharmagic again (both kids did better) and then on to It's a Small World. My kids looked amazed, but it could have just been exhaustion because Evan crashed just before Peter Pan.
Since we had him down a few minutes, we hopped on the carousel.
So did Barbie and Alex
And mom and dad
Since we were near Ariel's grotto, we went and waiting to meet her. Everyone else headed to see the Hall of Presidents.
We also saw the Country Bear Jamboree for my Dad, and I stick by my earlier assessment - it's kinda creepy. We hopped over to Adventureland to see the Pirates again (and have Ally inducted as an honorary Pirate) and to catch the Tiki Room. Jury is still out on that one. We hopped on the Flying Carpets and that was a blast. The best part was hearing Jason scream when the camel spit on him!
This was about the end of the day, although we hung around to see the castle light up. We rode the train around the whole park and then got a photo together on Main Street.
Arron and I stayed with the kids to see the castle light up. It was worth it. :)
Last day : Hollywood Studios!
