Last full day has come around so quickly, its open to the vote today for everyone to decide where they want to go. The resounding choice is of course The Magic Kingdom.
Spectromagic is on again tonight and Reg missed that last week so we’ll make the effort to get a good spot tonight. Needless to say MK is absolutely heaving. Wheelchair at the ready we head straight for Adventureland. Our last spot of the hairy leg on POTC and the kids catch the Tiki room again whilst we sit out and enjoy the sun.
Frontierland is absolutely heaving and we debate as to whether its worth fastpassing (return time is already after 4:00pm) or standby for 80 minutes! Reggie decides he doesn’t want to ride BTMRR again so we bundle my mum into the wheelchair and nip up the disabled antrance, wait time was about 3 minutes so that one was done and dusted. We avoid Splash as we can’t be bothered to wait that long
So nip into The Columbia Harbour house for their delicious Tuna sandwiches.
Oer to The Haunted Mansion, The Cm here spots the wheel chair and gives us a ticket to return in half an hour so we say our fond farewells to It’s a small world. Singing at the top of our voices and splashing Ruth we thoroughly enjoy ourselves.
Back to The Haunted Mansion for Reggies first ride here, its so good the way the ghosts sit with you during the end bit!
We wait in line for Philharmagic (my choice) then as we mooch through Fantasyland Donald Duck came out of a door and we walked together towards Tomorrowland.
Its dark already and the lines are ridiculously long for all rides here, we even have to get off the TTA after 1 turn around!!! So we go again, and again.
Buzz’s line is huge but Callum and I stand by for 30 minutes to ride once more. Of course I was thrashing him, until about a minute before the end then he got lucky and jumped to about 40 below my score, so he finished happy.
We attempted to get into the galay theatre for the special showing of Mickeys, T’was the night before Xmas but as it was standing room only and we were all shattered, we declined.
Back to the centre and the partners statue to get a good spot for Spectro, we’re in the wheelchair viewing area and theres still an hour to go before the parade but its filling up fast, so we take it in turns to relay back and forth to the shops.
We’re pretty much all spent out and the suitcases are fit to burst (thank heavens for Virgin Luggage Allowance) Ruth, Reg and Dan bought me a huge and magnificent Villains snowglobe which is wonderful but a bit of a squash in the case, hopefully it’ll make it back in one piece!
Spectro is fantastic and Reggie and Dan had a really good view, we were ticked away at the back but as Callum, Mum, Ruth and I had seen it before we didn’t mind them having a better view than us.
We bid a very fond farewell to MK as we leave and the CM’s are out in force wishing us happy holidays and a very good night. Even after a really long busy day these guys till sound like they mean it – that’s the magic of Disney!
Still enough Baileys left for a wee tipple so after I’d wrestled it from the toys who’d evidently been having a party I got stuck in.
