I had to do a presentation on Thursday, April 24 in the morning, so I brought my daugther and we spent 2 days at the world after that - and then hit the beach for a day before heading home.
We got to the Magic Kingdom at noon on the 24th. I thought the parks were pretty busy the 2 days we were there - which surprised me this lated in April. We were hungry so we got a hot dog from Casey's, and then went to the Laugh Floor - which we love. We then got a fast pass for Space Mountain - which was for 5:00! We went into Fantasyland and did Snow White and then Philharmagic. We then did the Haunted Mansion, and got a fast pass for Splash Mountain - which was for 8:30 (luckily the parks were open until 11).
We went to Adventureland and did the Tiki room, went and saw the paradem and then got on the train in Frontierland. We walked through Mickey and Minnie's house, and took some pictures. We took the path to Tomorrowland and got on Space Mountain - which had a hug stand-by line. When we got inside in the final queue, there was a problen with one of the coasters - so they had to turn on the lights for a while - which was pretty cool!
After that we got some ice cream, and rode the Teacups - and then Small World. We had reservations at Chef Mickey's, so we headed to the Contemporary (after a little shopping on Main St.).
Chef Mickey's was great as always - we had no wait, filled up, and got all the needed autographs. We then walked back to the Magic Kingdom. Spectromagic was going on, so we watched that for a while.
We went right to Splash Mountain and rode it - which is always great, and then were able to walk onto BTMRR - which then packed up as soon as we got on the Coaster. Wishes was going on as we left - and we got to watch it through Adventureland and then Main St. We left - and stayed at the Hampton Inn Eastgate - which was nice. We passed right out.
The next morning we got up early - checked in at the Coronado Springs, and then got to Animal Kingdom just after opening. We went right to Expedition Everest and rode it 3 times - the lines were pretty big - and then rode Primevil Whirl. We went to Pizzafari for lunch and headed out.
Next stop was Hollywood Studios. We got a fast pass for Tower of Terror, and then did Star Tours. We went to the Indy Show, a little shopping, and then saw the new Block Party parade - which was great. We did the Magic of Disney Animation, and then rode Tower of Terror - which was a hit!
We headed out and went to Epcot. We rode Mission Space - and then played the multi-player video game at the end for a while - which my daughter loves.
We then had some wet burritos in Mexico, and walked around the world. It was getting late, and we were wiped. We headed out and got to Coronado Springs. We hit the pool for a while, and then crashed.
We packed up in the morning, and then hit Cape May for breakfast before we hit the beach. Good breakfast, and more autographs. After that, we were on our way.
Like I mentioned before, the crowds were much larger than I expected. The weather was mid-80's - which was pretty hot I thought as well. But even with that, we had a great time - as always. Can't wait to get back!
