Take Small Children By The Hand....a Sept Trip Report (Baby pics-Page 40)

I woke up bright and early at 5:45am. Once I was ready, I got Tony up around 6:30am and Madison got up shortly after that. We were all so excited for our breakfast at CP! We were at the bus stop at 7:05am...impressive! There were quite a few other families in that line as well. I guess everyone wanted an early breakfast on Sunday morning. A bus came around 7:15am and we were through the MK turnstiles by 7:35am. It was another beautiful morning!

While in the breakfast reservation line, we saw the family of the day get picked! They had been on our bus that morning...how exciting! There 3 girls who were in their teens and they were there with their mom. They all freaked out and were screaming and jumping up and down.

As we were let into the park, I noticed that the crane behind the Castle was gone!!! So, we took quite a few PP pics on our way down Main Street.

I wish every morning could start like this!

I was on the porch of the Crystal Palace at 8am on the dot. The line to check-in was a little long, but they had 2 CM's checking people in so the line moved quickly. While we waited to be called, I took more pics!

Our name was called around 8:15am and we were SO hungry! When Madison and I came back from the buffet, we noticed that Tony was talking to a CM. I looked at this name tag and he was from Buffalo! As you can see from my photos, Tony wore his Buffalo Bills t-shirt that day (it was Sunday...football day). We continued chatting with him for a little while and he was really nice.

Our breakfast was fabulous as usual and we were done eating around 9am. For some reason, they didn't charge us for Madison's breakfast! Maybe the nice CM from Buffalo noticed her birthday button and spread a little magic.

Up Next...more MK!
 
Wow, you are really making me crave BF at CP!! Wouldn't that be sooo good right now on this cold, snowy morning?

The early morning PP pics are great. Looks so peaceful at the MK!
 
Yay!!! No crane. What a wonderful morning. I wish we were early risers. Well I am, but the other 2 are NOT!
How cool that they didn't charge for her breakfast. What a great treat.
 
I'm impressed that you were ready in 30 minutes! I would love to have my family & I ready that quick!

That would be so cool to be picked as the family of the day!

Maddie looks so cute in the Tink pictures!:tinker:

I didn't know they had chocolate Mickey waffles!!!!! Those look so good!
 

Awww what a great morning at Disney!! I just love before park openings at Magic Kingdom!!

Breakfast looked amazing!! I so do love breakfast foods!!!

It would be so good today. I'm a little disappointed at the lack of snow, but the snow day sure is wonderful!

I love early morning at MK! So pretty!

I'm SO not an early riser on a normal day, but at WDW....I don't even need to sleep! :laughing: It was a great way to start our day and I was shocked that they didn't charge us for her breakfast. We had free dining already, but that was really free!

Tony doesn't take very long to get ready...quick shower and shave and that's it. While he would get ready each day, I'd pack our park bags. With Madison, I only need to do her hair and she gets herself ready (I just toss out her outfit for the day).

I'd LOVE to be the family of the day! I guess that's how you do it...get to the park about an hour and a half before opening!

The chocolate Mickey waffles were delicious! I think we only saw them at CP.

Awww what a great morning at Disney!! I just love before park openings at Magic Kingdom!!

Breakfast looked amazing!! I so do love breakfast foods!!!

Me too! It's amazing walking down Main Street with hardly anyone else around.

We are huge breakfast lovers in this house. That was our 3rd breakfast ADR!!!
 
Great pics of Maddie and Tink! She did get really good at that pose! So cute!:cutie:

WOW...we've never done a breakfast ressie before, even though my boys get up early, we could never make it to the parks that early...not yet anyways, maybe when Cole is a bit older. MK was so empty! :cloud9:

Can't wait to hear more!!
 
That sunrise photo is gorgeous! It looks like it belongs on a postcard. I have always wanted to do a CP breakfast before park opening. I love the look of an empty Main Street. How nice that CP had chocolate Mickey waffles and also gave you a free breakfast. What a great way to start the day! :thumbsup2
 
OMG a fellow Buffalonian, heidi hoe there neighbor! Great TR, just found yours today and all caught up. Can't wait to read more!

Thanks! She can be quite photogenic when she wants to be.

Someday, you just have to do an early breakfast at CP. It's awesome!

I saw that sky and I just had to take a picture. So pretty. You must do a CP breakfast...yummy and fun to walk down an empty Main Street.

Hi there! Thanks for joining in!

What a wonderful morning at MK. :goodvibes We just love CP breakfast! Can't wait to hear about the rest of the day.

The 2 requests I got from Tony & Madison for the trip were Chef Mickey's and Crystal Palace. We love them both so much!
 
Loved this update!! It brought back so many memories. There's two main things I love at WDW: sunrise and sunset. :cloud9:

How awesome you saw the family of the day get picked!! Lucky them!

Your CP pics remind me of our breakfast there. And how awesome for a little magic! :goodvibes
 
Another beautiful family photo, how do you's look so nice so early in the morning?!:goodvibes

Crystal Palace looks like such a picturesque restaurant, didn't know you could get chocolate mickey waffles! Really want to try a pre opening breakfast there someday!

Thanks! Watching the sunrise that morning was awesome. I think it's the earliest we were up all week.

I was very happy for that family...I'd love to be the family of the day!

Breakfast at CP has never disappointed. We love the characters there!

Hahaha...thanks. My hair actually loves the humidity. The second I walk outside with damp hair, the humidity starts to work it's magic! :goodvibes

CP is beautiful inside and out and the breakfast buffet is one of our favorites. I really loved the chocolate Mickey waffles....I love anything chocolate.
 
yay for one free breakfast!!!

Looks like a lot of yummy food for breakfast! I love all the morning castle pics! My favorite pic from my college program was one that a few of us FGITs took outside of the castle before the park opened. It was taken at like 7:45am but it was still pretty awesome even though it was freezing!!

That sounds like so much fun!
 
That sunrise is just gorgeous! Only at Disney is waking up so early so wonderful! Madison's Tink shot is too cute-- she has that surprise face down pat. Your castle pictures are great-- we didn't get any crane-less pictures our last trip. :sad2:
Glad you guys enjoyed your breakfast-- everything on your plates looks yummy!

I love the sunrise picture too. It was a beautiful morning. Madison really liked getting the Tink magic shots. So cute!

I was so happy to not see the crane that morning! Of course, the Fantasyland cranes were still there, but that was to be expected.

We sure do love our breakfast buffets!
 
We love Crystal Palace breakfast! The chocolate waffles are so good! Isn't that they best feeling in the world to walk down and almost empty main street and get your picture with no one in the background. My DH always gets mad when I schedule a breakfast for the first time slot because it is so early and he is not a breakfast person to begin with. But it is worth it to get in their to an empty park and be done before the park even opens.

We love waking up for Crystal Palace! Madison is such an early bird anyways, so she doesn't mind waking up at all. Our ADR was for 8:15am, so it was nice to take some PP pics before we even checking in at CP.
