Last day at Disney

Up at 7:30- to the Magic Kingdom for one last day.

We rode the boat over and arrived at the park as the opening music was playing.
Each person got to pick their 2 favorite rides for one last go around today.

Here are the choices:
Samuel: Indy race cars- big thunder mountain
benjamin: goofy barnstormer, carousel
Kim: pooh bear and peter pan
chris: pirates of carribean, transit authority

Well it turns out there were NO lines. It was amazing. We rode Pooh bear back to back. We just hopped from ride to ride. By 11am we had been on all of the above plus some for a total of 11 rides. We rode the transit authority around twice. It was cool, the lights were on in Space Mountain so we could see the roller coaster tracks.

It started to spit rain as we left to head to Downtown disney. We rode the monorail again. We got to ride in the conductors cabin up front. So fun. The conductor was from Illinois. From there we toured the Grand Floridian and then boarded a bus for Downtown Disney. Benjamin fell asleep on the bus ride over. We hit some shops- too busy for all of us.

From here we went to the Boardwalk. We rented a 2 seater bike with a front basket for the kids to sit in. Just as we are about to pull away it started to pour. Benjamin wouldn't sit in the rain so he sat between us under the cover and samuel put on a poncho and rode up front. He LOVED it. Every time we hit a bump the rain would poor off the canopy onto Samuel's head. He and we laughed so hard.

Dinner: The flying fish
so yummy- again the kids ate our food instead of the kids meal

We took a bus to the magic kingdom then the boat to our cabins. Samuel quietly cried as we pulled away from the magic kingdom.

Bed: 8:30

we pack and get ready to head out.

I'm big time jealous. It's been almost 35 years since I've been to Disney, and still remember the good times. Hey, Samuel, I'm with you bud, I think the Indy Race Cars and Big Thunder Mountain would be my favorite rides also!! Loved the picture of Benjamin sleeping after a long and hard day!
Love to all,
