We arrived at MK about 9:30am. It was not crowded at all. Everything was walk on, except for when we got to FantasyLand. Peter Pan, Dumbo, and Pooh ride was all at least 30 minute wait. So we didn't ride those.

It got more crowded about 3pm when the parade was getting ready to start.
MK closed at 8pm that night, but we got to do everything we wanted.

I braved the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. If you read earlier in my TR, you would know that I feared this ride. My DD talked me into it. I couldn't let her down. I just had to take some pics!

My DD laughing at me:

OK, so by now, it was lunchtime. We got 2 turkey legs & 2 bottled waters and I found a little bench to sit down & eat. Well, these birds (cranes?) just swooped down and surrounded us, begging for our food. A couple of them would sneak right up to us trying to get some. My DD put her food down beside her & one of them went right up & got a big chunk she had pulled off & set aside. It was so funny. So we decided to share our food with these birds, because they wouldn't leave us alone.

After lunch, we headed back towards the castle to watch the stage show & wait for the 3pm parade.

Here's some parade pics

Then we headed to ToonTown. We went to the tent that had the characters. The fairies were in one line with a 60 minute wait. The other line had the Princesses, so we went to that one, and it was pretty much no wait at all.

Then we went to Mickey & Minnie's house. A CM said they were together at the Judge's tent. SO we went there & it was about a 30 minute wait.

I liked it! I really liked the fact that it didn't have those huge drops that are in most roller coasters.
