Day 6, Oct. 7th
"Happy 23rd Birthday, Nicole!"
Today is my birthday!! I am so excited about this day! Regardless of last nights party, we will have a very early day today (well semi-early) but I'm sure I won't have a problem getting up!
Our plan is to be at DHS about 30-40 minutes before rope drop so I can take care of my birthday gift card before the park opens. We have one reason and one reason only to be at DHS for rope drop and that is for TSM. If for some reason we have the opportunity to ride TSM prior to this than we will either hit rope drop for MK or sleep in! But lets go on the hunch that we won't make it to TSM before this....
We'll ride standby queue at rope drop, and depending on time ride ToT. It would have been awesome if Sully & Mike were around for photos so early, but I'm pretty sure they don't start until 11am.
Our next stop is the Magic Kingdom, and fast! We have 10:20am ADR for my favorite place to eat breakfast in the world, Crystal Palace!!
On previous trips i've seen them decorate the table with confetti and streamers. Part of me wants to request it at the podium because I don't want to be disappointed, but the other part of me wants them to just know to do it on their own. As of right now i'm probably going to mention it. This is the one thing i'm getting my hopes up over my birthday. I don't expect special treatment anywhere else, but since i've already seen them do it for others I would be disappointed if I was left out.
Besides the make your own omelets, i'm sure this guy will cheer me up!
I don't have a picture of Pooh (my favorite)
I have a strong desire to eat at Crystal Palace and than go on my favorite Fantasyland ride The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. Being that it will probably be around 11am by the time we are done with breakfast, I don't have high hopes for a short line. Nevertheless we'll make the best of it! After all it is my birthday! I definitely want to check out the Monsters Inc Laugh Floor? Do you think they'll notice my Monsters Inc, tee shirt?
We'll hang around MK a short while longer, especially shopping with my gift card, before heading out to Epcot, Monorail style! Por Favor Montagense Allejado de las Puertas!
Our reason for being here is simple: F&W!! Once again i'm sure the heat and exhaustion will catch up with us, and being that we have a farily early dinner ADR we'll want to head back for some relaxation at some point. I know we have to freshen up and get into our Grown Up Clothes! Our ADR takes us to
Narcoosee's! It's a 5:40pm ADR, and we are both very much looking forward to either the Surf and Turf or Lobster!! I couldn't think of a better restaurant to have my birthday dinner! I've heard very good things about this place, and I just can't wait!
I'll pack an extra set of clothes with me (probably my birthday tee) so we can change after dinner and head back to MK! Tonight is the night for Wishes and Spectro Magic, but hopefully before dinner we can ride low line attractions like Pirates, TTA, Phillharmagic, Small World etc!
WIth not many sleeps left in WDW, we'll have to cherish every one!
