Day 2, Part 1 - Magic Kingdom

Day 2 Happy Birthday to Hannah!  TEN years old!! 

We had an exciting day ahead at Magic Kingdom!

Waiting for the bus to take us there.  I will just go ahead and say that the double stroller we rented was awesome!  I don't know how we would have made it without it.  The kids took turns in it.  The only thing I wish we had done differently was to get another single along with the double!  They kind of fought over riding too much.  Hard to blame them.  We did a TON of walking.

First glimpse of Cinderella's Castle!!!

Rapunzel's Tower

Pretty quickly we hit the rides.  We took advantage of the FastPass+ System and so we tried to plan our riding around those times.  It was kind of crazy.  Between the 2 days that we were here, though, we road just about everything.

Magic Carpets of Aladdin.

Wish our pictures in front of the castle had been better but the sun was shining right in our eyes.

This was just a few pictures of a show in front of the castle with a lot of the characters.

Tomorrowland Speedway.

We had lunch at Pecos Bill Tall Tale Cafe.

Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin.  It was really cute.  It was a game where you got to fire lasers and shoot things.  You were competing against each other and got a score at the end.

 Astro Orbiter.

The rest of the pictures were taken by Disney's PhotoPass photographers throughout the resort.  We purchased the Memory Maker.  I totally think it was worth it because most of the photos are great.  I especially love all the ones of us on different rides!

So, Layton's height was about 39 1/2 inches.  He was so close to 40 inches that on some rides the workers would let him through and then others they wouldn't.  He was the cutest thing trying to stand as tall as he could when he was being measured.  I don't think there would have been anything he wouldn't have ridden.  He was not able to ride Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, so it was just the four of us.  I can't remember exactly but I think Dad rode this one too.

These next few were from the Buzz Lightyear ride.  They crack me up.  I especially love Mom and Dad's!  Ha!  You can barely make Layton out next to me.

This one was in front of the Haunted Mansion.

Having a snack while waiting for the Festival of Fantasy Parade to start.

Birthday girl!!!

Love these.  They are from Space Mountain.  That ride was fun, but whoa it really jerks you around.

One of our favorite rides was Splash Mountain.  Mom was definitely regretting she got on it!  She had her head in Dad's lap the whole time. Ha!  (Sorry Mom!!)

Along with Splash Mountain, our other favorites were Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train (We didn't get to ride it until our second day because the lines were so long.), and Space Mountain.  We also really enjoyed the Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor.  It is a really funny interactive show.  It is improvisational so you could go see it multiple times and it would be a little different.
