Disney World Vacation Part 5

Our second day started off nuts with a Buzz Lightyear ride in the Magic Kingdom that scared both Kara and Addison. They both enjoyed it until near the last part where the whole thing went pitch black and we couldn't see anything. I have most of it on film below in the first movie link. I'm going to also interject here that a majority of these rides/shows were louder than many concerts I have been to and thus significantly added to the "scary" factor for our kids.

After the fun time at the Buzz ride, Addison took her first ride in the teacups while Kara watched with me from the outside. She really liked this as Kelly didn't rotate the center console so that the teacup wasn't spinning like crazy. There were some people there that made them spin like mad and further reinforced why I don't go on them in the first place.

Then, we went to the 3D theater that was so loud the girls had their hands over their ears for most of the show. It showed an orchestra cartoon with all of the Disney bunch trying to get it up and running. Through the course of the show, we were squirted with water and had fog pour in the theater. This was not met well by the kiddos, and sufficiently freaked them out. We were not allowed to take any pictures in the theater room, so I just have the one beforehand with their glasses on.

Prior to lunch, we picked up a princess dress for Addison, as she had been wanting one since we arrived. Kelly had set up a lunch in Cinderella's Castle where all of the Disney Princesses would swing by your table. The food here was a lot better than our last big meal, and it was nice to get inside and away from the heat. Addison simply loved meeting all of the princesses as they stopped by, while Kara was very shy this time and didn't even want her picture taken at all.

After our dinner at Chef Mickeys, Kelly and I stayed up late to watch the fireworks that they launch near Cinderella's Castle every night around 10:00 PM. Luckily the girls slept through this first round, although they were quite loud from our room.

That first night we went to Chef Mickey's for dinner. This was a buffet style restaurant where Donald, Mickey, Goofy, Minnie, etc. would swing by the tables to say hi to the kids and for photo opportunities. The girls also had signature books as well that the characters would come around and autograph. The food wasn't the best, but the kids liked seeing all of their Disney characters up close. They were shy with a few of them and didn't want to get their picture taken, so Kelly and I would have ours taken for fun. After dinner(last picture) we took the girls to a store that was close and let them each pick out a hat. Addison snagged a princess hat that lit up while Kara got one in the shape of Goofy.

After getting settled in the amazing room, we walked over to our first park, the Magic Kingdom! We caught a parade right after popping in the front entrance that the girls really enjoyed. It was a bit crowded and a little hot on the asphalt that day. The girls were pretty tuckered out by the time we made it to the river boat ride as you can see int he pictures below.
