I'm really quite proud of this picture.
We were right at the front of the rope on the side closest to Cinderella's Royal Table. There were just two little kids in front of us.
A CM came up to DH and I. Asked us how our morning was going, yada yada yada. I was getting excited. Then she asked how many were in our party. I said 2. She looked at the kids in front of me and said, "these aren't yours?" Nope. She moved on. Jerk. I was really getting excited that we would get to open Fantasyland. I had seen this CM talking to a higher up CM or at least it seemed that way and he told her to "go pick a party." Nope not us. She chose another family further down from us to open up Fantasyland. I was bummed. Poor DH had no clue, I had to fill him in later on what happened.
All the CM's came out and started blowing bubbles.
Then a teen, probably about 15 came booking through the side of the Castle and ran straight into Tinkerbell's Shop. The CM's pushed her back outside to the line and she was right up front. I thought that was a little unfair as there was a mother right up front with her little girl, all dressed up as Tink. I knew there was going to be a footrace.
The Fairy Godmother comes out to greet the family who has been chosen.
The CM with her back to the camera is the one who did not pick us. Oh well. The family heads off and then they drop the rope. I felt bad for the mother and her little girl, the older teen beat them to Tinkerbell's Shop to wake up Tink. Not that I have anything against older kids being able to do it but that girl cheated and should have been towards the back of the pack waiting to get into Fantasyland. It also didn't help that the teen's mother was screaming at her from the back of the pack telling her to run fast. Weird. I made myself a promise right then and there, that I would NOT being trying to do this when I have children. I can imagine myself having a full on panic attack at the Fantasyland rope wanting to get there first. Nope. I will not be waking up Tink ever.
DH and I headed to Peter Pan first.
Peter Pan Trees, don't ask.
We were the first ones on, the Peter Pan ride is big and roomy, we were able to fit very nicely together. As soon as we got off, we asked the CM if we could ride again and she let us cut right back in line since no one was waiting. We really enjoyed Peter Pan. I haven't done it since I was a child so it was nice to see. I loved that Ariel is in Mermaid Lagoon.
After Peter Pan, we went across to It's A Small World.
There was no line. I don't know why I took a picture of this.
DH and I were the only ones on our boat, we sat up in the front row. There were no space issues width wise. I think the only problem was there wasn't a lot of leg room for me.
On the IASW boat.
Jiri's Hippo Friend. I absolutely had to take a picture of this for her!
Pineapples for the LapuLapuettes!
After IASW, we doubled back and hit up Snow White. We sat in separate benches in the Snow White car. It would have been really cramped for the two of us to squish together. I felt meh about Snow White, it was nice to ride since we only had a two minute wait.
After we rode Pooh, there was no wait. We also sat in separate benches in the honeypot. We had no problem asking for our own benches.
We took a minute to breath from our Fantasyland Mad Dash.
One of the panels on the Carousel.
The Sword in the Stone. For those of you who didn't read my PTR, The Sword in the Stone holds a very special place in my heart. My dad, brother and I used to watch this movie almost every Saturday while growing up. I never knew about the Sword in Fantasyland before I read the Unofficial Guide. This was a must do!
A nice lady offered to take a picture with both of us. This is one of my favorites!
After taking our picture with The Sword in the Stone, we started to feel raindrops. UH OH!
Will it rain on our Disney parade?
YOU ROCK!!!
I have been off dealing with bridesmaid drama so I am catching up... But your TR makes me smile!
I loved the artsy castle pics.
I can't take credit for the bill settling beforehand because I read it on someone else's TR. I can't remember whose.
