Wednesday September 8th.
Today was the day! We were moving to Riverside. I was very excited and couldn't wait to see if we did get a Mansion room after all.
We were up bright and early. We brought our luggage over to bell services. Let me tell you, that was quite a hike with our luggage, we were both pouring sweat by the time we got there. It was already hot, hot, hot! Once we got there, the CM said, "We could have picked those up for you." Oy! How did I not know that? Oh well. We dropped off our luggage with a wish that we'd see them again very soon at Riverside.
We were waiting for a bus a little after 8 and made it to Magic Kingdom well before rope drop.
Once we were let into the park I slowly made my way up Main Street. Marc was on a mission, a Space Mountain mission so he headed to Tomorrowland.
I walked very slowly to Fantasyland. I was hot. I think this was one of the worst heat days for me after our horrible Epcot Monday we had already experienced.
I saw the step sisters yelling for Cinderella at her Royal Table.
I collected fastpasses for Peter Pan and took a spin on it by myself. Then I headed over to Pooh. It was a little weird in Fantasyland with all of the construction, I didn't really like it. I understand it's necessary but it kills a little bit of the magic.
After my ride with Pooh, my favorite part being when you bounce like Tigger, I headed back towards the carousel and spotted my favorite nanny.
Marc texted me and he was headed my way and he made it just in time to take my picture with Mary and Bert. This picture is hideous...my hair was awful this day.
Marc didn't love Space Mountain, he said it's not a must do for him but it's an okay ride.
Marc & I decided to head to get a slushie coke but we decided to stop at the tea cups first since there was no line. I haven't ridden the teacups in Disney since I was five. My uncle spun me so badly when I was five that my mom swears to this day that my eyes were rolling back in my head, all I remember is hearing my mom scream from her teacup with my dad and brother for my uncle to stop....he didn't. I made Marc promise not to spin it.
Those teacups are tight quarters, my goodness!
They are still not my cup of tea but I conquered my fear so i was happy we took the time to take a spin.
We headed to Tomorrowland and the Lunching Pad wasn't open yet!! Not until 11!!! We went for a spin on Buzz Lightyear, there was no wait. We still didn't like it. I am so confused when I am playing, I have no idea where to shoot. It just isn't fun for me or Marc for that matter.
We still had time to wait until 11 so we journeyed to the Carousel of Progress. I was too hot to take pictures at this point in the day. Some would say that I was a crank pot. I don't dispute that description. We then took a spin on the Tomorrowland Transit Authority Peoplemover. Say that 5 times fast.
After our spin on the Peoplemover, I decided that I was not walking another step until I got my slushie coke so I sat down at a table in the shade and waited for the Lunching Pad to open. I had been texting back and forth with Brook about our Haunted Mansion meet. I had debated leaving the park before the meet because it was so darn hot. Brook & her family were enjoying their time at Epcot so they decided to stay there which was just fine since Marc & I were not going to stay at Magic Kingdom for much longer.
FINALLY, the slushie coke was in my greedy little hands.
Mine! Mine! Mine!
A picture of the newly renamed Peoplemover.
I was feeling refreshed from my Slushie Coke, I did drink it a little too fast and got a little stuck but it passed fairly quickly, I had to nurse the rest of it even slower but it was worth it.
We decided that a break in AC is just what we needed, Philharmagic it was! A lovely show as always. Then we redeemed our Peter Pan fastpasses. I adore this ride, it makes me feel happy.
Then of course since we were so close we hopped into a doom buggy and visited the 999 Happy Haunts. We walked through frontierland but we decided to skip out on BTMRR and I offered to ride Splash but Marc didn't feel like getting wet. He was a bit cranky too because of the heat.
You will have to take my word on all of this, beacause I was too hot and cranky to take pictures.... We weren't too cranky to take a nice cooling ride on Pirates though!
After pirates we had decided, enough was enough. We had the Riverside pool waiting for us!
We took a few pictures on the way out.
Marc asked me to take this picture, I still don't know why. He was even directing me, "Don't just take a picture of one bird, get them all!"
Ok, Marc.
We cut through the Emporium and headed to a glorious Riverside bus. Do you know how close the POR stop is to MK? It's like the closest bus! Score!!!
Coming up...
Would I be able to fulfill my Southern Belle daydreams with a Mansion Room??
Great taste!! 
but maybe if I just ate around them...or just all of the cheese!! Those fries looked yummy too! 
I love, love, love this! I will surely be looking for it when we get there!
I'm going to pretend I never read that or I will be having them every week when I got to Target.
Now just forget I said that.
