Magic Kingdom Part 2
After the Jungle Cruise we then headed to
We then rode on Peter Pan and It’s a Small World. All the kids were mesmerized in It’s a Small World. Timmy (5) especially enjoyed it since he just finished a recital where he sang the song. When we entered the White room with all the kids from all over the world, Joey (8) says, “Look, it’s heaven!” And he was right! It did look like heaven. You have to wonder if that’s what Walt was thinking of when he designed it. I glanced over at DH and noticed his eyes closed and he was propping up his head with his hand. Poor guy! He had to be exhausted from all the driving, or maybe it was just too much dramamine.
Before heading over to the Parade, we stopped by Snow Whites ride. Grace had been watching it for a while and didn’t get scared of the movie. If something scares her she says she , “closes her eyes.” Well, Timmy had to use the bathroom and we got in line, but he didn’t get back in time. I new there would probably be trouble and later on he did get sad, “You went without me.” But he got over it quickly, there was so much more fun things to help him forget.
We waited in line for the parade and got a good spot right in front of Cinderella’s Castle. The heat was really intense by now and we got our traditional ice cream snack while we waited. I wanted to get a spray fan (we usually take our own from home, but forgot). I told myself I’d pay no more than $10 and when they said $17, I choose to endure the heat!!! Grace was enchanted by the characters in the parade, smiling and pointing as they passed by. She finally got to se “Cindalella”, but my camera died and I couldn’t get any pictures of her. I thought maybe the camera was over heated, but it turned out to be the batteries died.
After the parade, Grace, Timmy and I went to hear a story with Beauty while the big kids went to
I ran off with the big boys to Space Mountain, while DH took the little ones on Buzz again. Absolutely no lines at
After
When we got out of Stitch it started to down pour. Luckily we had our ponchoes. We decided to eat at the Alien place and after that DH took the boys on Buzz again, I braved the rain and ran to see Minnie Mouses House to take a picture with Mickey. It was a wet trek and I had to leave the stroller in the rain, but Grace was warm and dry under the poncho and there was no line to see Mickey. My camera had started working again, but when it was time to snap a picture it died. Luckily I had my video camera and before I knew a Disney employee came in and snapped a couple of pictures for me and handed me a card. Now how did they know my camera died. I guess it’s Disney Magic. Well, I knew the picture would be expensive, so if I could get another picture at MGM with Mickey I wouldn’t need to buy this one.
The rain let up and we went home exhausted. We didn’t stay to see the fireworks. We figured there wouldn’t be any because of the rain. Besides we had to wake up early the next day to do one of those Time share tours…
