Woke at 6:30am and we were at the bus stop by 7:20am (better than yesterday:))


The bus driver asked if anyone had any questions and no one did so he kept asking us questions.
Here are the ones I can remember: (see if you can answer them)


How many monorails are there???
What colours are they?? (Give at least 3 colours)



He was hilarious, he said that today was his first day as a bus driver and that his previous job was at the LMA stunt show so hold on tight :rotfl2:


When we got to the Magic Kingdom we were one of the first guests but we didn't get chosen to open the park. Ellie pin traded till we were allowed to go in and then we had to wait. For the train that is we had seen the show millions of times and it is always the same! :confused:


Jess I think a million times maybe a slight exaggeration :lmao: I like the opening show, I always tear up a little!


Whilst the show was going on Ellie caught the streamer and Dad took some pictures :thumbsup2 Here they are!

When we got through Mum thought it was clever to catch the train but we had to wait for ages :mad: We rode the train to Frontierland. We went and fast passed Splash and rode it, Ellie loved it and we said we told you so :thumbsup2.



Yes for some reason I thought it would be great to go straight to the train, jump on and ride round. Well what we (I) didn’t realise was that they don’t allow you onto the train that is there, so we had to wait, when we got to Frontierland we still one of the first there so all was good!


Ellie has refused for the last few trips to go on Splash and finally this year she braved it, guess what her favourite ride is now? :headache: :rotfl:


This is a blurry rednecked photo, we’re at the back!

We rode BTMRR at the back YAY!! Dad squished mum on the corners and I purposely squished Ellie :rotfl: We sung: Put your hands in the air and wave them like you just don't care Hey!! It was so much fun. We went up and down and as Ellie describes it we flew out of our seats. When we got off a CM called Omar said Hello and then we went and rode it again, we got straight on it again. We were at the front though so it goes really slow and all 4 of us didn't like it as much!! We got off and Omar remembered us and said “Hello again.” It was so funny. We didn't stop talking about him for the rest of the day!!


The girls have suddenly gone from holding on very tightly to the bars on roller coasters to waving their hands in the air :eek: They had so much fun though!

Next mum dragged us HM which had no wait, Yay for mum not me, I hated every minute of it till we got off and I was still shaking. I hated going down backwards in the dark. A CM at the beginning scared me by staring at me all the time till we went off. All the ghost effects were clever but I hated it and I was nearly crying!!!


Oh Jess you baby you, at least you found the hidden Mickey, right :thumbsup2


Next went to Fantasy Land and Mum went to FP Peter Pan’s Flight but she was still too early so we went on IASW much to my disgust. This is what I said: Yeah we all know it is a small world Grrrrr.


Jess loves IASW really ;) it has to be ridden once every trip though right? :lmao:


Mum, Ellie and I went on Teacups whilst Dad Fast passed Buzz and we got bonus passes for Carousel of Progress.
Some pictures of Ellie and I on Tea Cups.

(I tried to get photos like Dawn(Punkin) took but it didn’t work so well!)


It started to rain so we used our FP’s and went on CofP when we came out it was still raining so Ponchos on! We went on Buzz using our FP’s and got more for later we got bonus ones again! Dad won the first time. We then went next door to laugh floor and sat near a lamp, Mum’s theory didn’t work as we didn’t get picked!! This little girl was boo and she was so cute, she got told to play peek a boo and her Dad put his hands over her eyes. The 2 characters said: She has really big hands. :rotfl:


Another must do each trip is CofP, I love the catchy tune much to the girls disgust although Ellie now sings along too :lmao: And yeah David won Buzz, even with me reading up on the highest points targets :mad:


We were all starving, as we still weren’t eating at normal hours so we got 2 funnel cakes, we made a mess, Ellie and I loved the sugar that was left! We went on Pirates and we always choose the wrong slowest side. We got off pirates and headed over to our meal.


Ooooh I love funnel cakes, all four of us were covered in powdered sugar :rotfl:
 
Our meal is at Crystal Palace. We went and checked in early as it was raining, it seemed packed outside but that is because everyone was sheltering from the rain. We had to wait for at least 5-10 minutes and then the pager started vibrating and flashing. We went and I gave the pager to this lady and she took us in. While we were waiting I was looking through the window to see Pooh, Tigger and Eeyore but no Piglet. We went through the doors and saw the flowers carved into the characters, so cute. Our table was to the left by the furthest column and 2nd table in.

I saw Piglet and Ellie was really glad as he’s her favourite and our server came over and asked for our drink requests. I had a sprite Ellie & Mum had Lemonades, and Dad had a Coke. We asked how do the characters go round and we were like the 3rd to last table in our half. Eeyore and Piglet had just started. We went to get some food. I got pizza and croutons from Pooh’s corner I also got the chicken nuggets!!! Ellie got the same without the Croutons though. Mum and Dad got veggie Yuk!! Mum decided she was being a child having the chicken nuggets from the kids corner.




CP is always a favourite with the girls as they love Eeyore and Piglet, the wait to get in wasn’t too long and as always there were lots of walk-in people being turned away! Yes I did get a few chicken tender things from the kids station but they are nice, I must say I prefer the Dinner food offerings to the Lunch ones, but I’d booked lunch because I knew we’d still be suffering with jetlag and need an earlyish night again!



Eeyore was here :yay:

Ellie and I with my favourite 100-acre wood character.

Piglet was here :yay:

Ellie with him her favourite 100-acre wood friend

Me with Piglet, have a look I am so tall that my head is in Piglets ear :rotfl:

Pooh and Tigger had just finished the other side and went on over to us. We had time to go up for seconds and I went up and got exactly the same as last time.

Tigger was here :yay:

Tigger signing my book

Pooh was last but I got the biggest hug, he loved my book as it had a picture of Pooh on every page. He drew his siggie and drew an arrow to his little picture. I kept the first page spare for him and he was glad by the look of things.

Finally Pooh turned up :yay:

Ellie and Pooh

We went up for dessert and I had ice cream with sprinkles. Ellie had ice cream and sprinkles with a chocolate chip cookie. We then left and Ellie traded a pin and got a baby Tinkerbell well it looked like it to me, after she traded she said it isn’t baby Tinkerbell but then got a better one another day. We went straight to use our Buzz fast passes but the queue was ridiculously long, coming out of the door.




After our meet with the characters we went to use our Buzz FP’s but for some reason the FP queue was out of the door, which kind of defeated the object of the FP’s so we decided to find something else to do!



We went and hopped on TTA and a LGMH was spotted on our bag. We went through the whole thing and I saw a hidden Mickey on the girl who is having her hair done, it is on her belt. Mum said as it is our 2nd park day we have to do Mickey’s Philharmagic. We all love it and Ellie was going mad with all the things that pop out, she was trying to catch them. It was hilarious :rotfl: I saw all the hidden Mickey’s, 1 on the Aladdin bit by the palace and the other around the rim of the frame of instruments on the trombone :thumbsup2



As we went up the slope to the blue line (TTA whatever!) a lady behind me said “ooooh ohhhh” and tried to spin around to show me her LGMH on her bag too. She was very sweet and we chatted a little, her screen name was PB&J2 I think. When we got to the bit where they assign you cars they tried to stop me getting into the car with David and the girls as they thought I was with PB&J2 and her friend :rotfl: After TTA the queue for Buzz was still enormous so we went to one of my favourites, Philarmagic, I find it almost as relaxing as Soarin and love to see the girls reach for stuff, oh and the music is great too!



We thought as our dinner had gone down we can go on Splash so we went and used our 10:10am fast passes at 3:10pm :rotfl2:
Dad and I got absolutely soaked we were in the front of the log it was fun as we saw the rabbit and danced to the music. We went home via the shop to buy mum her CD: Four Parks One World. I wasn’t feeling that good and I didn’t want a CS meal so we had a swim, then a shower and then food. Ellie had a cheeseburger, Dad had a bacon burger, and Mum had a steak sandwich I just had a bit of everything!! Ellie had another swim at night, Mum got bitten, and I was asleep by 8:30pm!!!




As Jess said we then headed for Splash but what she missed out was the fact we rode on the Liberty Boat, it’s something David has always wanted to do apparently :confused: It was nice and relaxing and a break from all the running around, we found some bench type seats on the lower level at the front which were nice, except when some people came and stood in front of us :headache: The boat was empty for petes sake, go stand elsewhere!!!!! We then did go to Splash and used our 5 hour late FP’s, the standby queue was about an hour, why do people wait in lines that long when they can FP? Oh well more FP’s for us!


Again as Jess said we bought a CD for me, I was looking for the Soarin music and I listen to it loads, especially before golf matches as it puts me in the right mood :lmao: David even knows exactly what part of the music goes with which scene on the ride :lmao:
