16th July
We were off to Chef Mickey for dinner tonight and then to Magic Kingdom for the fireworks so decided to let the kids choose what they wanted to do and they decided on a pool day which I thought was only fair as they had been getting up earlier than a school day !!!!! They lay in their bed late that morning whilst I set up by the pool a good book and a cool drink!!! The kids soon emerged and bobbed in and out of the pool whilst me and my mum soaked up the sun. It was soon lunchtime and DH who was getting restless by this time decided we wanted to visit some golf shops the kids looked at him in disgust and I may have glared a bit too so it was decided DH and John would head off and we would stay by the pool .
As we sat by the pool a family of birds came to call they were very friendly and if we were about during the day always came by the pool door in hope of something to eat. It was amazing in the 3 weeks we were there how much the baby grew.
DH appeared back around 4pm after visiting every golf shop in Orlando and stopping off at IHOP for a sneaky stack of pancakes. By this time we all went and got showered and ready for our night at Chef Mickeys.
We arrived early so we could look around the hotel shops and we sat for a while just watching from the windows watching the clouds rolling in and the rain starting.
We were called on time for our meal and as usual Chef Mickey did not disappoint. The food was delicious and the characters were great. We all ate until we could not move and then ate some more. We all love the cheesy mash and the beef was cooked to perfection.
Once we were done we caught the monorail to the Magic Kingdom and although there was lots of puddles the rain had eventually stopped. We headed for fantasyland and rode Peter Pan and Small world then headed over to Mickey and Minnie house. DS was intrigued by these houses.
We then went on the Winnie the Pooh ride and then headed to POTC. By this time we needed to get a spot for the fireworks. As usual Wishes was fantastic and once finished we moved back to Fantasyland to ride Peter Pan again and then the Carousel. We then decided to try and find a spot for Spectomagic and got a great kerb spot on Main Street . As I sat by DS I watched as we was just captivated by the parade and waved and clapped as the parade passed.
We walked slowly out of the park buying DS the balloon that he gone on about all night (no balloon is worth $10) and then walked back to The Contemporary to pick up the car and home to bed at around 1am.
