We basically went through Main Street, Frontierland and Adventureland, with stops at the shooting candy shop (mmmm, M&M's), shooting arcade, and Alladin's carpet ride. Then we were drenched with pouring rain, which was actually a good thing because it was so hot. The rain also scared away some park goers, so the crowds were kept in check. We also managed to catch a couple parades and a Mickey Mouse stage show. But the best was Sasha waiting to meet Pluto - when her turn came, I don't think her face could smile large enough to show her excitement. I think Pluto is her new best friend.
The highlight of the afternoon was lunch at Crystal Palace, which is a buffet restaurant with Pooh, Piglet, Eeyore, and Tigger. All characters visted our table, hugged the kids, signed autographs, and generally made lunch a great experience. The kids were exhausted and this really brightened up their day. Plus what a great way to make them sit still and eat lunch! Now we know the secret - all restaurants just need a guy in a big fuzzy suit to make the kids sit at the table. Maybe I can rent John out?
We're back for naps - if the rain stays away then it may be fireworks tonight.
Comments
Ok, hopefully you will get this comment! Pictures from Disney look great and mom just looks happy as a bug with her mickey mouse shirt! HAHAHA! Sounds as if you are all having a great time and the kids are enjoying it. Guess no matter where you go at the moment it's 100 degrees, so enjoy! Safe travels...
