Disney Post #2

Ahhh...back at our "new home" after our second day at the magic kingdom. The kids are in their bed watching The Swiss Family Robinson and Jonathan and I are enjoying our daily "entitlement" of a bottle of wine. Today was even better than yesterday...if that's possible! We rode tons of rides and did many very fun and exciting activities! We started off in Adventure Land where we toured the Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse (mommy's favorite!), rode the Jungle Tour, Aladain's Flying Carpet, and Pirates of the Caribean (eleanor's favorite...ha!). We had lunch back at the Crystal Palace and got to see our friends Pooh again. Jon David even got to lead the "Pooh-rade" with Pooh! It was very exciting!

We went back and re-rode It's a Small World and Peter Pan (the kid's definite two favorite rides in Fantasy Land) then we were back at Tomorrow Land to see a bit of Buzz again! We had reservations at Cinderella's castle for dinner. This was the coolest ev-er! We got to have a meet and great (yes, it's called that!) and then go UPSTAIRS in THE castle and eat in the dining room. The Fairy Godmother was there with the mice and everything! Eleanor wore her Giselle dress Aunt Allison gave her for her birthday and Buzz wore, well, Buzz. And if that wasn't over-the-top enough, there were chocolate crowns in the icecream sundaes. We were tired little park-goers after all that excitement and headed back to take our fairy home. What a super fun day!

Tomorrow, we're off to Disney Hollywood and all the Playhouse Disney stuff. We're having breakfast with The Little Einsteins and Lunch at Toy Story's Pizza Palace. Dinner is Mickey's Beach Barbeque back at the Lodge. Oh, tis the life!

Here's a few choice shots of the day...and no laughing at the ameuteur photography!
