Friday, Nov. 25

Magical Friday

We started the day off with a Supercalifragalistic breakfast at 1900 Park Fare, where we ran into Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Alice, The Mad Hatter and Mary Poppins.  The breakfast buffet was delicious: it included a carving station and an omelet station, Mickey waffles, cheesy hashbrowns, French Toast, fruit, cereal, oatmeal, sausage, bacon, smoked salmon... on and on.


After breakfast we went to the Magic Kingdom, repeating a few favorites (Space Mountain, Buzz Lightyear), meeting Pinnochio, Peter Pan and Chip & Dale, and also taking in some classics: Philharmagic, tea cups, Winnie the Pooh, Haunted Mansion, Swiss Family Treehouse, etc.

On Main Street we caught the Dance Party parade, which was quick and fun - lots of characters and people dancing, getting the crowd excited about celebrating at Disney.  We had lunch at Tony's Italian Restaurant, which was good - our server was great. He'd been at that restaurant for 16 years!  I had a pistachio creme brulee for dessert.

For our last afternoon/evening, we all hung out together at the volcano pool, eating Mickey ice cream sandwiches, then dinner, and wrapping up by watching the new Winnie the Pooh movie on the beach.  The girls and I also worked in some hula lessons that afternoon. Great family time this afternoon. 


The kids were tired after the movie, so we went back to the room.  They asked me to wake them up to see the fireworks tonight, so I did.  Poor Michael didn't even remember them the next morning.  He was barely awake when we walked out to the beach to see the evening fireworks.
