We arrived at our hotel room last night just before 11PM and grabbed a quick bite at the food court.
My older son had a minor melt down because, though the food court is open until midnight, we were not told that the grill station shuts down at 11...and I swear they closed it down while we were standing there studying the menu. He had to settle for pizza instead of a hot dog..and as hungry as we were, and tired after a long day traveling, he did not handle it with good grace.
So we ate and went back to our rooms and got the kids to bed... Our suicases arrived just before midnight...and I settled in to sleep fairly well.
We were up and dressed and out the door before 9 and arrived at the Magic Kingdome just ater 9AM... As usual--we kick things off with the Pirates of the Caribbean. My 4 year old, who has been on this ride countless times since he was 3 months old, was suddenly deathly afraid to go on this ride... but I dragged him on promising him he would be safe....and he acquiesced after a lot of coaxing...
We managed to get on Thunder Mountain, Splash Mountain, the Haunted Mansion, the People Mover, Tomorrow Land Speedway,the Teacups and the train..and had lunch at Columbia house.
We left MK at abou 5 to take a zip back to the hotel... the kids wanted a swim...and then we got ready for dinner and back to MK for dinner at Chef Mickey's at the Contemporary hotel. I have never see my daughter eat so much Macaroni & Cheese... Mickey Mouse tried to steal some of it but she was not in the mood for sharing.
My 4 year old danced up a storm--he was in a great mood... For dessert he came back with a plate full of sprinkles... My daughter came back with a plate full of gummy bears. My oldest made himself a sundae which he could not eat--it was too full of junk. LOL.
So anyhow I am home in my hotel room--in my bad with my aching feet...and I am going to catch me some much needed shuteye...
I'll check in with you fu's in the AM! We will be EPCOT bound. I think my feet are going in sneakers tomorrow!
