Disney Part 3: Magic Kingdom!


FIRST, Please be sure to read Disney Part 1 and Disney Part 2!

Wednesday April 15, 2009

We woke for showers, then our yummy free breakfast! We arrived at Magic Kingdom at 10:30am (and stayed until well after midnight)!

Of all four parks, Magic Kingdom was the definitely the busiest with long waits for many attractions. The weather was sunny & beautiful - even bordering on hot at some points during the day... we loved every minute of it!
CHECK OUT THOSE CROWDS...

I will post the list of all we did that day, and include pictures of course :) I apologize now if there are too many pics, but I have trouble choosing which ones to post! By the way, we (I) took more than 700 pictures during this Disney getaway!!

Last pic is great-loved the ones in front of the castle and that is awesome you were able to meet the princesses, especially cinderella b/c that is a RARE thing those girls got. They only come out for a few things!! It looks like it was lot of fun and I am proud of all the photos you took!!!

Madeleine's first ever roller coaster was the Goofy one. Julian's favorite ride is the Buzz Lightyear one. I wish Madeleine would stand next to a princess for a picture, but it's still a huge NO.
