Had another fun day at Disneyworld! 😀
We started off the morning in Magic Kingdom. We got there just as it was opening, so there was a huge to-do going on with Mickey and all sorts of people. Then we got inside. Aidan and I went to The Crystal Palace to check in while Chris rented a stroller. Then we had breakfast. It was so cool. Piglet was kind of standing around, Eeyore was taking forever to move from table to table. Our server said “Tigger and Pooh will be here in a couple of minutes.” Then, while I was eating, someone came and kissed me on my head! It was Tigger! 😀 He’s such a flirt. Lots of cool pictures from meeting those guys. They all have their own little quirks. Tigger flirts, Pooh likes to hold your hand, Eeyore pats your back, and Piglet hugs. 🙂
After breakfast, we walked around the park. Rode the Aladdin carpet ride thingy. Why did no one warn me about the “spitting” camels? It got me good!
After, that, we were deciding between Pirates of the Caribbean and some Jungle Cruise when we saw Chip & Dale! Of course, we had to meet them. Then we rode Pirates–ugh. I didn’t care for it and it scared poor little Aidan! The Jungle thing was fun. Lots and lots of corny jokes, but cute just the same. Then as we were headed towards Adventureland, we met Captain Hook, and saw Peter Pan and Wendy dance by! 😀
I got to ride Big Thunder Mountain RR (MY FAVORITE!) and Chris rode after me. We did some sort of switch off thing where I waited in line first with a “fast pass” ticket. When I was done, I gave Chris the ticket and he went through the Fast Pass line and got right on. Awesome.
It was evident that Aidan and I were in need of a nap by now, so we headed to the front of the park. OMG, in that Times Square? There were so many characters. I had no idea who to go to. I ended up choosing Goofy and Snow White. Snow White was so sweet, and my first “person” character. She was beautiful and so nice! 🙂
We took the monorail to Epcot, then a bus back to the hotel. There, I took a nap while Chris and Aidan played in the pool. Then they came up and we headed to Epcot. I LOVE Epcot. Rode Universe of Energy, Spaceship Earth, then ate before heading back to World Showcase. Just as we got to Mexico, Chris looked down and realized that Aidan had puked. 🙁 And we didn’t have a change of clothes! So began the mad dash all over the park trying to find a store that sold toddler sized clothes. For BOYS!
We got him dressed and then headed back to Mexico. Rode their cruise, smelled the restaurant (OMG, the mere thought of how good it smelled is making me hungry!), and then headed to Norway for Maelstrom!! That ride is wicked cool. After Maelstrom, we took pictures, then waited for fireworks. 😀 Aidan got his head stuck in the railings not once, but THREE TIMES. You’d think he’d learn after the first time. When he went to do it again, I told him I was going to take a picture to show to his future girlfriend(s).
After fireworks, Aidan and I piled into his stroller and Chris pushed up to the exit. 🙂 Now I know what it’s like to be Aidan. It was so weird. We caught the monorail to Magic Kingdom to see the Main Street Electrical Parade. Actually, it has a new name now. Spectral Magic or something like that, I think. (Sorry, I’m too tired to go and get the guide to look it up!). WOW. SOO COOL!! I so totally want to be one of those parade characters. They make it look so much fun. We had prime seats, too. Can’t wait to show you pictures!
It was a good day. Except for Aidan getting sick, and then Chris passing out twice on his way back to the hotel room. He got sick too, and I think it was the mac & cheese. A word of caution for those who may visit in the future:
That place is gross and we think it’s what made Chris and Aidan sick.
The longest wait for a ride today was fifteen minutes. We just walked right on to most of them. I heard that it’s even more dead on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I’m excited about that! Test Track, here I come! 😀 Some of the character lines were really long, but most of them moved very quickly. I didn’t get to meet Minnie, but I saw her! Mickey–saw him from afar. I’m being teased again! 😀
But I’ll definitely get to see him tomorrow. Yay for Character Dining.

I’ll try to get some pictures up soon. I’m too tired now to bother with it. Plus I’m on dial-up. Mmyeah, about that. Heehee.
I’m having a wonderful time so far. Hopefully Chris and Aidan will take it easy at some point. Those two were going hardcore today, no wonder they got sick. Actually, I think it was the mac & cheese. I only had a tiny bit. I also didn’t spend an hour in the straight sun (Chris is pretty red)! Meep. I’ll try to update again!
Byeeee!
