On Sunday we opened and closed Magic Kingdom.
Riding the ferry (The morning air out on the water was a bit chilly.)
Cinderella’s Castle
We take Claire’s picture by the mosaic mural inside of the castle during every visit. Here’s her picture from May 2012
And here is the picture we took last week:
Side-by-side you can tell how much she’s grown in a year and a half – all the way up to the light-green leaf!
The girls riding Prince Charming Regal Carousel
My princess riding with her daddy
Cinderella’s glass slipper, on display in Princess Fairytale Hall
Claire and Cale with Rapunzel (Isn’t she great? She referred to Cale as a “little ruffian”!)
The princesses
Meeting Snow White
Then Snow White kissed Cale!!
I missed the kiss but got a pic of the evidence!
When we left Princess Fairytale Hall, we ran into Cinderella’s stepmother and her stepsisters, Anastasia and Drizella
Then we went to meet Mickey Mouse – He talks!
As we were making our way back to Fantasyland, we found ourselves in the front of the line to meet Merida!
One thing I LOVE about meeting the Disney characters is that they don’t rush you. They take time to interact with each person and family before posing for pictures. It’s actually an encounter and an experience rather than just a photo shoot. It makes my kids feel so special and important. Another thing we love about Disney!
We rode the Mad Tea Party (a/k/a the teacups). Afterward we ran into the White Rabbit and Alice.
Cale managed to get all of the pretty girls to hug him!
Claire got plenty of hugs too!
We headed over to the Storybook Circus next and rode Dumbo.
Then Cale just had to check out the Casey Jr. Splash and Soak Station since it was a “choo-choo train.” He managed not to get too wet.
Then we rode our favorite ride in the new Fantasyland – Under the Sea: Journey of the Little Mermaid.
Oh how I love this face!
After the ride, we went to Ariel’s Grotto to meet Ariel. She was beautiful and so very sweet!
Check out Rapunzel’s tower! And the lanterns!
Then we just rode more rides. Claire’s favorite was Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. She rode it twice.
We found the perfect spot to watch Wishes Nighttime Spectacular.
I took several short videos of the show, so that we could remember it. How cool is this?! (The videos don’t do it justice; but trust me, this is spectacular!)
Watching the fireworks
Leaving the park - our babies were plumb wore out!
We had to take one last picture of the six of us in front of the castle. My babies were so tired that they were crying. Ahh… Memories!
The next post will have pictures from our cruise!
