Disney – Day 2

We woke up this morning and headed off to the Contemporary Hotel to meet up with our bestest friends Kristin, Kourtney, and Joe.  In the parking lot we found another letterbox to add to our collection.  We headed up to their room and the kids had fun hanging out in the room (and balcony).  Brenna loved all of Kourt’s princess toys.

We then headed off to the Magic Kingdom on the monorail. 

We hit Fantasyland first and spent the morning over there.  Then off to Toontown and met the fairies and princesses.  Yes, Braeden was thrilled!  Poor guy!  Liam was okay with it, although got a bit ticked at Tinker Bell when she was chasing him.

Enough fairies and princesses!  Off to lunch and to the Buzz Lightyear ride, we played/rode this ride more than everything in the park.  This was Braeden’s favorite ride, along with Toy Story Mania at Hollywood Studios.

After riding it several times we drove to Epcot.  On the way over Brenna fell asleep.  We took this time to find another letterbox with Braeden in Downtown Disney.  Then off to Epcot where we had a dinner reservation with, you guessed it, the princesses.

We had our first major meltdown when we walked into the restaurant and saw all the princesses going around to all the tables.  Brenna wanted them to visit her immediately.  Then finally when they come around, Cinderella (her favorite) is first only to cry more because she wanted Snow White….guess because they had matching dresses….who knows what goes on in the mind of a two year old.  Once Snow White visited she was happy to enjoy her time with Ariel, Aurora, and Belle.

This is what Liam thought of the princesses…..

 

Normally they don’t allow stollers in the restaurant but our server must have had pity on Ed trying to hold him in his arms and told us he checked with someone and they said we could bring it in here.  The service at Disney was awesome, almost everywhere you went they would go out of their way to make everything special for you (with the exception of one mean monorail guy with an attitude).  When I went up to get Brenna some fruit and the lady heard Brenna saying she wanted grapes and there were only a few, she came back with a HUGE plate of grapes….like the size that you buy in the bag in the store.

After Princess overload we got Braeden out of there and went over to Soarin which is another one of his favorites, if the lines were shorter we would have went on it more.  When we were at Disneyland a few years ago he did it 12 times.  He did end up going on it four times with the parent swap.  This is definitely my favorite ride by far.

Then on to the Nemo area that was just being built the last time we were there.

By this time it was time for the firework/light show.  We watched from a distance, and then headed back to the hotel to catch some sleep before day three.
