Where Sparty Meets The Mouse New Years 2011 TR -**NEW 4/17 Arriving at MK**

Wow! I can't believe I haven't updated this TR in a month! I have been so busy with class, work, wedding planning, and blogging (I have started doing recipe reviews every Friday for my friend's blog. If you're ever looking for a WDW recipe check out illuminatingepcot.com!) I haven't even been on the DIS this month!

Today's photo of the day:

Finally, on to the Trip Report!

Day 5
So, even though we had gotten back really late the night before, we got up bright and early to try to get to the Magic Kingdom for rope drop.

We stopped at Starbucks and loaded up on caffeine. It was drizzling and I was really worried that it was going to be a yucky day in the parks but at one point we saw a double rainbow!

We were running late but I was super excited to see this:

By the time we made it to the park we missed rope drop by minutes but I still wanted as much park time as possible so we moved quickly to the monorail.

Once we got to the park we headed to get our Space Mountain fastpasses but I saw these cuties on the way

And we saw a PP photographer. I handed him my camera and I was surprised that he didn't even ask to take a pic with their camera. That was fine by me since I wasn't planning on buying it, but I just thought it was weird.

After we got our fastpasses there was no line for Buzz Lightyear so we ran over there. Ever since I rode TSM I find Buzz just kind of annoying. You never know if you're hitting a target or not...I dunno, I just think it could use an update.

Next we headed over to Fantasyland in search of the Cinderella fountain I had seen on Flickr but I had never seen in the parks. And I found it!

Next we rode Snow White, which I hadn't ridden in a LONG time, but I heard it was closing so I wanted to get one last ride in. I know its an opening day attraction, but I can see why they'd close it. It just looks old and it is kinda scary. I'm sure I would've kept my blanket over my head as a kid. lol

Then we headed over to one of my favorites: Philharmagic. It said it was only a ten minute wait, but I'm pretty sure we waited in the lobby area for 15 minutes.

Gosh, I love this show! There is just something about it with the 3-D and the music...and it doesn't hurt that I saw it the first time with my high school band director :thumbsup2

Next: Space Mountain and Lunch at Columbia Harbour House
