Saturday 7th Oct Magic Kingdom

We never have a great night sleep on the first few nights and this was no different. Martyn, Lucy and I were all awake by 4:30. We decided to get up at 5, switch on the tv and all get showered. I had taken my hairdryer with me thinking it would be better than the one in pop but i was wrong, it was rubbish. The one at pop was great. We went down to the food court and all had breakfast. Rob and Sheila had gone down earlier to get their morning coffee. Lucy had Mickey waffles, bacon and sausage, and Martyn and i had a cinnamon swirl.

We wanted to get to the park before opening so we got on the bus just after 8. We had to go straight to the guest relations to exchange our voucher for the park tickets. Martyn and Sheila did this while we waited by the the ticket turnstiles. Virgin had made a mistake on the voucher, they had printed kennedy space centre on each voucher, the cast mambers had never seen this before so they had to make a few enquiries as to why it was there :confused3 . 15 minutes later were through. :cheer2:

We head straight for frontier land. We do splash mountain, big thunder mountain, Pirates of the carribean and then aladdins carpets. Everyone is very thirsty now so we go get some frozen lemonade in adventure land. I saw a lady I met on the plane the day before with her family. From here we did the jungle cruise.

Rob and Sheila didn't do Philarmagic last year so we all go and do this, its one of my favourite 3D's. We also did its a small world..... well you have to don't you :teeth:

For lunch we ate in Peco Bills, Sheila and I had a big chicken salad, Martyn had a burger, Rob had a pork sandwhich and Lucy had chicken strips.

That afternoon we did, The hall of presidents, The haunted mansion, The transit authority, Space mountain, Carousel of progress. We also have an ice cream stop, Lucy had a mickey ears but only wanted the ice cream not the chocolate so someone had to eat it :)

Lucy was scared of a few of the rides. One of them being the Transit Authority!!! :rotfl2:

We had our evening meal in the starlight cafe. We were all feeling the heat today and tiredness was catching up with us. We stayed and watched Spectromagic and Wishes. I love everything about the Magic Kingdom but wishes is one of my favourite things :)

Arrived back at pop, I draw the short straw and have to go and refil the cups :rolleyes: Were up early tomorrow as we have an ADR for breakfast in Norway. Booked the wake up call, checked the weather for tomorrow and lights off.
 
Hi

Sounds like a lovely first day. The castle seems bear, but still beautiful without the gold trimmings. All our recent pics has the gold trims.
 

Excellent first day ~ Lovely piccies :)
 
Aw bless her, Lucy looks terrified, hope she recovered enough, she looks so sweet in that dress with the hair ribbons. A great day, sounds like you got loads done,
 
A lovely day, Michelle. Spectro and Wishes are my very favourite things. Hope Lucy was not scared for too long.

I hated all those gold trimmings but must agree the castle does look a bit bare without them :)
 
What a lovely day:)

Brilliant photo's too.
