Another Princess In Town Day 3 - Part 1
Brekkie see day 2. Dropped case off at luggage room and bus into park 8.30 ish.
I actually had written down a list of what I wanted to do for the day as it was our last day.
Went on Buzz and got fp for later. Then fantasyland (again) carousel,dumbo,teacups,small world, pinnochio (dd wasnt keen to get on because it was dark ok when on but definitely not a fave)
Snow white didnt open until 11 so went to see dragon found him! A big hit with DD. Looked around the upstairs of the castle and took pics of the stained glass really lovely.
Snow white was the first time I realised that all rides were not open from 10. I also noticed the carousel shut at 6. There was just a small sign at the entrance to the rides. Again snow white not a hit with DD due to dark she liked the last scene with the prince/horse/snow white.
Park was A LOT quieter today I kept expecting the crowds to arrive and they didnt.
Area next to castle was being roped off for 10.45 sleeping beauty show. So we stood from 10.25 ish next to the rope so DD could see. Show was nice in French they danced and mimed to music. DD enjoyed it. Started 10 mins late. Prince looked about 16 wondered if he was a late stand in! They signed books as they walked from the castle to the sword bit so stand there if you want an autograph.
Only a few people came early 10 mins before would have been ok but when the show started lots came and the cast members were stopping kids sitting on the wall so alot couldnt see. Well worth getting there early. After the show the cast member came over to me and apologised and said because Aurora was late she couldnt stop for a photo but if we came back later she would do a photo with DD. We didnt have time to go back but I thought it was nice.
Went to see the dragon again (!) then off the cafe Mickey. The walk there was a bit fraught DD not understanding why we were leaving.
Tip id got here to use the liberty/discovery arcades to leave quickly spot on. Literally a handful of people in them each time I used them and welcome shade from the sun.

I also take the same exit as you, it is much quicker when you're in a rush. It's funny how dd likes the dragon but didn't like the dark bits of snow white ? my dd is the opposite, she loves snow white even the dark bits but if we go near the dragon she screams 
thanks for sharing your trip x
