Farewell Magic Kingdom.

After a fun night at Downtown Disney, we made our way to the Magic Kingdom on our second morning. The girls wore their birthday buttons that they received from the resort and sure enough, every cast member we saw wished them a happy birthday- including all the characters, in their own special way. With the exception of the carousel, we rode all the rides that we didn't get to go on when we went to Disneyland a few months back. I liked the fact that the streets were wider and the park seemed much more spread out. Although there were lots of people that day, the lines didn't seem too long. We never waited in line for more than 15 or 20 minutes. Therefore, we were able to get through much more of the park compared to Disneyland. The girls did wonderfully and made it from 10:00-4:00 (that's 7:00-1:00 PST). We thought about going back in the evening for the fireworks show but decided against it since we knew we'd be pushing ourselves too hard. Besides, we'd be seeing fireworks on the cruise ship very shortly! The girls loved meeting all the princesses, going on the rides, seeing the musical shows, and of course, waving to all their favorite characters as the parade went by. We even sat in the front row of the Pirates of Caribbean ride and they loved it. What a day!
