Finally, Magic Kingdom

We were up really early on Tuesday morning, the big day to take CeCe to the Magic Kingdom.  She had been there on Sunday with her parents, grandparents and Aunt Kristin.  She loved the parades!  

We started with Winnie the Pooh which got a ho hum response, then on to Under the Sea.  Now that she got into, clapping and dancing in her seat.  It was very musical and colorful and she was very familiar with Ariel and the music.

We also did It’s A Small World, Country Bear Jamboree, met with Cinderella, Philharmonic Magic, the carousel and watched part of a parade.  By then it was lunch time and someone was getting tired and hungry.  In fact, we all were.  We, Pat and Kelly were with us, ate lunch at the Plaza Restaurant and then headed for home.  

Kelly and Pat had Park Hopper passes and were supposed to proceed to Hollywood Studios.  But Pat was not feeling good so she went on alone on Disney Transportation and met Cassie and Kristin.  Sam and Morgan had left them to return home. The four of us went back to our condo where Pat slept on the single bed that comes down from under the TV, Ted chose the couch and I put CeCe down in the king bed so I could close the door.  She slept 3.5 hours.  When she awakened we used our Disney app to order food at the restaurant here on our grounds.  Then Ted took CeCe to our pool and splash pad.  She had a ball!  

Later, Ted and I went to the Grand Floridian to see the special fireworks.   We joined Kara and Bill and had a margarita at the tables around the lake with the castle in the background.  We were unable to return to the Magic Kingdom because Mickey’s Halloween Party was 6-11 and you needed another ticket!  

Wednesday everyone slept in but Kara, Bill and Sam.  They headed to Magic Kingdom minus Morgan who was still whipped from a full day at Hollywood Studios.  

We eventually went to Disney Springs shopping district.  I found another gift for Nancy.  We needed to stop at Walgreen’s before coming home.  After lunch we put on our suits and headed to the pool.  We met a delightful British couple and talked to them for a long time.  

I didn’t want dinner so Ted  went to McDonald’s (I think) and brought ice cream back for us. We have one more day here and Morgan wants to take us to the Art of Animation Resort to see all the art throughout.  Because we are all resort guests we can get on property.  They are very strict about not having just anyone roaming around their resorts.  

We have our Mickey Bands to do most everything.  CeCe has an old one, not attached to any account.  She insists on putting hers up on the Mickey too to enter the park!
