My son is completely back to himself, I was surprised how fast he recovered. usually it takes him a good two weeks or so before he feels better.

Our plans for the day was I decided to take DH over to the Richard Petty driving school & let him go around the track a few times. It was a late Father's Day gift.
Well, since Mother Nature had a plan of her own, DH could not get out on the track since it was too wet. :(

We went over to Magic Kingodm then. The first thing we did was saw all the characters on Town Sqaure. We had a BALL running to all the different lines. My son got so many autographs, it was a lot of fun.
We spent about 2 hours right in that area meeting characters :)

Afterwards he headed over to Adventureland & did a few rides over there. My son loves Pirates of the Caribbean :) There we also met up with Capitain Hook & Mr. Smee. Which really made my son's day.

We then headed over to catch the "Share the Dream" Parade. That is a wonderful parade.

After the parade we had to head over to Grand Floridian for supper at 1900 Park Faire. We took the Monorail & we were able to ride in the front. My son was in Awe since he loved riding the Monorail. The supper was wonderful, everyone ate themselves silly. I love the Chilled Strawberry "soup" That was WONDERFUL! We met the Prince, Cinderella, and the two mice (Suzy & Perla) everyone was wonderful except Cinderella, she just seemed a little off to me. The Fairy Godmother was in the lobby & when we met her there was no one else there so she spent quite a bit of time with my son. She was really sweet.

After supper we headed back to the Magic Kingdom & saw Spectomagic parade. Wonderful parade. I don't understand why they don't always run this parade. We really enjoyed it.

We also stayed for the fireworks. We never did see Tinkerbell 'fly' I don't know if we were just looking in the wrong place or what but no one in our party ever saw her.

It was a very long day so we were beat when we finally got back to the resort!

The cold strawberry soup is different - think it would be good to dip strawberries in too - thanks for posting!
