Our next day was a magic kingdom day. As we were walking to the marina, we saw a few turkeys, on sitting on a bike rack. I love the wildlife at the fort
Once we got to the park, we made a beeline for 7 dwarfs, which I have only rode once before in all my trips. Sooooo, of course the ride was down. Oh well. We instead went to space ranger spin and did the ride twice. Then, son and I went and did space mountain twice (almost a straight walk-on both times). You know, when I first starting going to MK, it was quite a bit lighter in the ride, with asteroids and comets that were visible on the dome.
While son and I were doing Space Mountain, the wife did Astro Orbiter for her first time. She liked the views from up there. We then headed towards Haunted Mansion. Another straight walk on, but I do miss the stretch room. This ride never gets old. The family then bought me a Disney Hawaiian short at the store near HM.
We had decided to do some shows this day, so we did country bear jamboree. Since we were right there, we grabbed some lunch at Pecos Bills (I think that is the name). Then it was on to the Tiki room and then PotC (about a 25 minute wait). We then decided to head back to Tomorrow Land. We did Space Ranger Spin and a few more on Space Mountain. Next it was on to some things we hadn’t done yet on this trip, like Little Mermaid and Peter Pan. Next, it was a 40 minute wait for 7 dwarfs, so we decided to do it. It is themed well, but the ride leaves a little to desired, IMHO.
It was then time to leave the park. We ordered food from P&J from the ferry, and picked it up on the way to the RV. The chicken dinner deal they have there is not a bad deal.
Oh yeah, while we were at the park, they were doing dry runs for the riverboat and the ride to Tom Sawyers Island (they re-opened the next day). I asked people at both places if they were doing soft re-opening, but I got nowhere. Also, the people mover was working most of the day, just with no people (which I guess makes it the no-people mover).
All told, it was about 8 miles of walking for the day. We were starting to get used to the walking.
