Magic Kingdom

We started our day bright and early. Everyone was up by 6:30am and on the bus headed towards the Magic Kingdom by 7:30 AM. We were just pulling in as Mickey Mouse and his gang were singing the opening ceremony song. We were on a mission to get to the popular seven dwarfs mine train ride. We ended up only having to wait 20 minutes before getting on. The kids and I had watched this ride on YouTube about 100 times. It was so neat. Apparently it's the most popular ride at the parks. I even got a bit emotional.  

Sophia, Christopher and I decided to try space Mountain. Christopher had been been on it before with Jason.  I remembered it as a kid but apparently not that well. It was terrifying. I was actually sick when we got off. Sophia and I vowed never to ride this one again. Christopher wanted to immediately ride again.
Most of the other rides were not busy so we jumped on it before heading for lunch at beauty and the beasts castle.  The lunch here was served quick service style it was amazing. I tried the gray stuff and it was delicious. :)

Great food is everywhere at Disney World. We decided to pop into GastonsTavern and grab a cinnamon bun to share! it was literally the size of Jason's head.  We're going to make this stop a tradition for all our future Walt Disney World vacations.

Pirates of the Caribbean and small world were a must. Both rides everyone in the family could go on.
Around 4 o'clock we decided to head back to the resort for some down time. 

We went for a relaxing soak in the hot tub , has a quick dinner and then headed back to the Magic Kingdom around 7:30 pm to see the Main Street Electrical parade and fireworks.

Disney doesn't mess around where It comes to lights and sounds.  So special. Christopher ended up falling asleep and Jason had to carry him home before the fireworks.  It was just me and the girls enjoying some time together.
