Disneyland Day 2
Another spectacular day. Went to bed a bit late last night. Dave and I had a few beers in the bar so never got around to updating the days events. Monday was the days we were getting into the park an hour earlier than the rest of the crowds. We caught the first bus at 7:20AM to the park and boy was it busy compared to Sunday morning. We were about 15th in line this time. We went straight back to Fantasyland going on all the rides there.

We then had breakfast at 9:20AM with the Characters at Minnies Breakfast just and the end of Main street. We had so much fun there and so many laughs, it was the best time. The place wasn’t busy yet so the food lines were empty and the characters spent a lot of time with everyone. Captain Hook was very funny, especially since there was some Tinkerbell stuff around our table. He had us all howling. Then the Fairy Godmother showed up and then Dale, Brer Fox, Tigger and Eyeore and Pooh and Max – Goofys nephew, Minnie and Gepetto. Tigger spent a ton of time with us and mostly on Carters hair – he kept taking ice out of Carter Sprite drink and putting the ice in his hair and making Carters hair spiky. Carter was a good sport and we all had a great time and the food was even good too.

More rides and fun at the Magic Kingdom. Some highlights were getting the kids on Space Mountain twice !! They loved it as did I. What a great ride. Scoring 115,000 on Buzz Lightyears Astro Blasters ride, Having my picture taken with Jasmine. I stalked her as she was trying to leave the park area and I handed my camera to her handler and she asked me ‘Where’s your Daughter ?” – I just said, it’s just me and they all looked a bit odd wondering what’s up with this guy ?? I wanted to show Haley that I met her. We did wait to see Ariel and I wanted my picture with her too but I passed on that and wish I didn’t now. She’s quite attractive.

The kids played a spontaneous game of Musical chairs with Alice in Wonderland and the Mad hatter – that was fun for them. We all did Big Thunder Mountain a whole bunch more times as well as the Haunted House and Pirates. It was too bad Splash Mountain was down – I love that ride. We had a great day since we accomplished so much on the Sunday that Monday wasn’t as rushed.

After the park closed at 8PM we headed to Downtown Disney with the thousands of others leaving the park. The World of Disney store was a complete zoo and the kids were burning out. We headed to the Lego Store after and hung out there for a bit and then took a cab back to the hotel. We were sure bagged. It’s so hot here during the day and not much of a breeze – we’re always looking for shade and taking a break with $3.00 water / $4 slurpees everywhere. Had some beers and went to bed.
