DAY 2 of DISNEY:
----
THE MAGIC KINGDOM
Because we were staying at a Disney resort, we were able to take advantage of Magic Kingdom's Magic Hours. The park opens one hour before it opens for the general public. Neat, huh?
waiting for the bus at 6:40am
this was the first view we saw when we entered the park...cinderella's castle!
breathtaking!
minnie was greeting guests as we entered!
meeting minnie!
we are at the most magical place on earth!
meeting mary poppins!
can they pull the sword from the stone?
not this time!
on "it's a small world" ride
beneath rapunzel's tower
on splash mountain - livia's expression is priceless!
after splash mountain
all sophia wanted to do was "see a princess", so we stopped and
watched some of the princesses from frozen
waiting in line to see ariel
sophia FINALLY got to meet a princess!
on the jungle cruise - we used our first fastpass for this iconic ride
they were getting "hot" while waiting to drive the cars on the speedway - poor things! it was 20 degrees in minnesota, while it was sunny and 84 degrees in orlando!
livia took me for a ride on the speedway
sophia drove bobby in her blue car - #71
livia drove #66
looking at the castle from tomorrowland - doesn't it look like a picture postcard?
we used a fastpass to get to the front of the line for space mountain - awesome!
it was an intense ride, but the girls had fun despite sophia's face!
riding inside a shell for ariel's underwater adventure ride
waiting in line for big thunder mountain rollercoaster ride - we were smart and used our last fastpass for this ride!
we took a break for some disney treats and found a place to watch the evening fireworks
the castle lit up at night
we had a magical day at the magic kingdom - all 14 and half hours of it!
