After breakfast, we grabbed Monorail Green and rode the Highway in the Sky to the Magic Kingdom.
The fall Halloween decorations were still up but the entrance was not too crowded outside the gates so we snapped some Photopass shots.
Too bad the sun was in the kids eyes:
Afterwards I tried one of my own:
Inside the park, Mom and I found another Photopass photographer and got some romantic castle shots:
And then DS and I tried to be Partners:
By now, Move It, Shake it, Celebrate It! was in full swing so we followed it to the hub and broke off towards Tomorrowland.
Mom decided to head to Stitchs Great Escape with DD and DS while I hung out with X.
I know most people frown on this attraction but we actually like it its basically little boy humor and little boys get a kick out of it.
Take it for what it is and you wont be disappointed.
Mom didnt think much of it but the kids enjoyed it as usual.
X and I headed to Buzz and got fastpasses for later.
Then we went to the TTA but it was down unfortunately.
So, the next best thing we went exploring!!
Little known fact: Stitchs Great Escape rotates the exit.
One show will let out into Mickeys Star Traders and the next will exit into Merchant of Venus.
So, X and I shop-hopped waiting for the rest of the family.
In the process however, we found some really cool details!
First stop was the Merchant of Venus.
I decided to dress up X to surprise Mom.
While we waited, I snapped away at my favorite part of this shop - the ceiling.
If you look up near the exit of the attraction, youll find these:
And they lead to none other than
Its a great continuation of the ride or even a post-show.
The crowd exited and no Capells.
So, it was off to Mickeys Star Traders!
There, X found something big, blue, and fluffy right away.
I LIKE FLUFFY!!!!!
Stitch was basically the same size as X.
How cute is that!?!?!
With some time on our hands, we explored a bit.
I love watching the TTA ride by in here and that drew my eyes to the murals high above.
There in the paintings is Captain Gantus ship.
And if you look closely, parked below is the one Stitch steals in the movie.
He took the red one.
On the other side of the store is Stitch himself flying over a futuristic bullet train of sorts.
There's also some Hidden Mickeys in there if you look around.
In fact there's a ton of Hidden Mickeys in the murals here but I didn't get a chance to grab pics of all of them.
Something for next time I guess!
The murals so reflect a bustling Tomorrowland out there though.
Speaking of bustling, the doors opened and the crowd spilled out of the attraction.
Still no Capells so we headed back over to the Merchant of Venus.
This time, we checked out the walls in this shop.
If you look closely, you might even find some familiar faces in futuristic vehicles:
But the more fun was the mural behind the cash register.
Doubling as a window into Tomorrowland you can see all of Stitchs cousins running around and enjoying themselves.
A cast member saw us looking and told us to find Stitch.
After searching all over, X finally discovered the little menace.
Can you find him?
X really enjoyed this way to pass the time.
We had so much fun, the CM even took our picture!
Then the doors opened once again and we were finally reunited with our ohana!
Remember,
nobody gets left behind.
So, it was about 11:40 or so and we had someplace to be at 12:00 a surprise in fact!
After all, I promised I would get to the Frog part of this TR sooner or later.
Now, the only question is whether or not I should start talking like a frog to tell the next part
Youll have to come back to find out!
You got some sweet pictures of the kids, as well as some great all family pictures. Chef Mickey's is a classic. 
(I know: Pot, meet Kettle. 
)
, and we had the best seats in the house!
