Last Sunny Florida Day






On our last day in Orlando, we slept in a bit, said goodbye to the zebras and went on our way to the Magic Kingdom. We had a short list, as we'd been there Thursday night already. For a Sunday in early February, the place was completely packed! Not to mention, after a day with dream fastpasses, we collected as many as we could because waiting in line was just not an option for us!

We fit in all our favorites, including The Jungle Cruise, Splash Mountain, Pirates of the Caribbean (very long line!), Aladdin's Magic Carpet, the Carousel and the Mad Hatter's Tea Cup rides. We also rode the People Mover and laughing hysterically when the woman said, "Paging Tom Morrow, Paging Mr. Tom Morrow" - we are cheesy joke lovers I guess!

We also allowed the girls to ride the Barnstormer kids roller coaster together without us. I have to say that this was a little nerveracking for me again, but they did so well at Sea World... Of course, we kept an eye out for them in line and made sure they could see us. At one point, with a bunch of other adults around us and several in line, Em yelled to us, "All the other kids have their parents in line with them!" and then put on this wonderful pouty face for us! Way to make your parents feel great at WDW! They survived and loved the ride, no parents necessary.

After roaming the park for most of the day with groups of cheerleaders from the National Cheerleading competition and builders who had attended the National Builders Conference in Orlando that week, we were spent. We actually left the park a bit early and even forgot to pick up our free picture. I have to say, I really enjoy staying at Disney longer with hopper passes so we can split those long days in half! For this trip, though, we just had to say enough is enough. Our poor little feet were screaming for the end. We said goodbye to the mouse and Cinderella and our week in Florida.
