The so-so trip..March madness is at WDW *Updated 7/27* Final thoughts

[scottny]

Great updates.

I have the Mine Mine Mine coffee mug & I use it all the time!! It is a great size.

We love being in the parks late at night. Looks like you had a great night.

Thank you.
I love all things "Mine, mine,mine".
It is great being in there at night and seeing it empty out.

Nice Wishes photos! Ugh those crowds ... but the reward after getting to Tomorrowland was a fabulous spin around CoP and then Peoplemover. Two of my must do's in Tomorrowland!!

Love your galactic hero pose for Buzz! Well done defending the Universe.

Too young and gorgeous to be a grandparent! I've got to remember that one! Hopefully I'll be able to age a little more before I have to use that line but yeah.

I'm anxious to see if you last until 3am!

Thank you.

Thank you. I do a terrible job defending it though.
it is true I am too young.
it is coming up soon.

We entered the area and quickly walked back to Gaston’s.


We all got a LeFou’s Brew I believe and we sat outside to drink them.




With a flash. I liked it the other way.


We made our over to Little Mermaid and proceeded through the line.












Here are the ride vehicles.


That pic above was taken at 2:04. They informed us the ride was down. I then took this.


They looked good when we got there.


11 minutes later she was ready to go on the ride or to bed. This is where the title came in “do you want to leave the line?” but I was told no.


Then we were finally on our way. I think it was a 15 minute wait and it felt like an hour.

Let the ride begin.




















And then the ride was done. It is a fun ride but we had to wait to long for it.

Up next,

We are not done yet.

Sorry about the wait !! That happened to us a Universal with The Spiderman ride !! We were sitting on it when it broke down Never did get to ride it as by the time it was fixed and we went back the line was HUGE!!!I am really looking forward to Little Mermaid Ride in October and in December !!

 

[emmysmommy]

You all toughed out the wait! Great photos of Prince Eric's castle and the ride. The CA version used to have Ariel with a "swirly" hair-do. I guess the soft-serve look was not well received so they changed it to the version that is at MK!

Now to see what you did until 3am.

I love the Spiderman ride. I am sure we will ride Mermaid a couple of times. We are there for a long time in December.

We did and thank you.
Hair is very important.

As we exited the ride I took a pic. I never stop. LOL


Hello Ariel.


Potty break.


I took a pic while I was waiting.


We left NFL and I took pics. I love MK at night. I love any Disney at night.


The carousel, castle and Philharmagic.


We then decided to go into Philharmagic.


She was very welcoming. LOL




Way too crowded in here. LOL


Waiting for the show to start.


HEY! SITDOWN UP FRONT. LOL


I love the show. Vinny does not so we don’t do it every trip but I love it. Afterwards we walked out.


Then it was time to leave. Shall we stroll out slowly?




Same pic but with flash.


I love the Castle.








Soon enough we were inside.




Main Street USA. I love the smell as you walk down.


Con't...

 

[scottny]

More pics of the Castle.








Time to really start heading out.


As you can see we shut down the park.


Then we were outside the park.


When we got to the bus it was standing room only. I told them to go ahead of me and catch it and I would wait for the next one. They did but my wait 4 minutes and I got a seat so I was very happy.

Soon enough I was back at POP. 50’s pool lit up.


Then I was off to sleep. It was a fun night with them. Too bad Vinny couldn’t go and stay awake.

Up next,

AK day starts

We definitely will meet up.

I love the beautiful night photos of magic kingdom. I can't wait to ride the little mermaid ride again, we only got to ride it once in October.

 

[MEK]

Scott - you always have the best night time photos. Love the carousel and gaston's fountain.

I can't imagine waiting 15 minutes for LM at 2am. I would be hanging over the railing too!

I can honestly say I have never been in the parks that late at night. The MK just looks so cool. I hope someday I can stay up that late.

I suggested leaving but was told no.
I hope you can stay up late too. It is nice being there that late. Gives it a different feeling.

 

[scottny]

We obviously got a very late start. LOL


Just in case the title didn’t tell you. LOL


Waiting for the bus.


Soon enough we had arrived.


I love the tree. The carvings of the animals are so beautiful.


We were hungry so we decided to just have a snack for lunch and I knew what I wanted. The Jalapeno Pretzel.


I also had a frozen lemonade adult style. It had booze and it was so good. If you look in the pic with the stand in the background that is where we got them but I have no idea the name. I hope it is open in December because I do want this again.

Then we came upon some birds.




Then it looks like we went to Asia.




Would anyone like a ride?


There is so much to see in AK.


The lockers for Kali Rapids.


Then we see this guy just sitting around.






Hello there.


I am going to cut this update short as the next one will have pics that will put me over the limit.

Up next,

Tigers and more

 

[englishrose47]

I like AK Parade the best of all the day time parades !! I always see sooo many things I hadn't noticed in peoples pix of AK !! It is however the most tiring park with soooo much walking !!!

 

[disneyfan61]

Wow Vinny does not like Philharmagic?? I have not heard of anyone not liking it. Glad you got to do it that night.

Beautiful nighttime shots of MK.
