Day 2 - Magic Kingdom Day!

Our second day at Disney World was designated Magic Kingdom day. Because we were staying on property, we were able to take advantage of a program that they run in the fall called "Little Ones Magic Hour". Because of this, we got to enter Magic Kingdom 1 hour early, and they had all of Fantasyland open for us to enjoy! One really cool feature of this program, is that many characters come out and play with the little kids! We saw Peter Pan and Wendy playing ball with a group of kids, Tigger and Pooh were playing on the playground there, Stitch was riding Dumbo....I can't remember them all!

We didn't play with them, though....we were too interested in taking advantage of the VERY short lines! We walked right on to Snow White's Scary Adventure, Peter Pan's Flight, It's a Small World, Cinderella's Golden Carousel and the Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh all before the park even officially opened!

After Fantasyland, we headed to the "Mountains"....well, Splash Mountain anyway. Big Thunder Mountain ended up being closed while we were over there. :o( But the girls all loved Splash Mountain, and we all ended up pretty soaked! Sydney was sitting on the right hand side of the boat, and was soaked before the ride even really got started!

It was time for some Pirate Adventures after that, so we headed over to Adventureland. We rode Magic Carpets of Aladdin ride for the first time, and it was really cool. A lot like Dumbo, but your "carpet" can tilt. Of course, we couldn't leave out Pirates of the Caribbean with Captain Jack Sparrow and Davy Jones. Then we took a little Jungle Cruise.

We then headed to Tomorrowland for some futuristic fun. We defeated the Emperor Zurg in Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin, learned about the progress of technology in The Carousel of Progress and took a breezy tour through Tomorrowland on the Tomorrowland Transit Authority!

It was getting close to our lunch reservation by this time, so we headed back to Fantasyland where Bill and the girls took some time out for tea on the Mad Tea Party. We did a little shopping in Tinker Bell's Treasures and Sir Mickey's, then we headed to lunch at Cinderella's Royal Table.....
