Day 2 Magic Kingdom

Today we saw how many people the Magic Kingdom can really hold--we think a lot of people who avoided the rain yesterday came today.  :)  It took us an extra 30-40 minutes to get to the park due to traffic, crowds, and a broken Monorail, so our plan to hit Space Mountain first, had to change, but it got us on the Speedway later in the day.


We started with Pirates of the Caribbean, and even Sophia gave it a try.  After a break at the Tikki Room with Dole Pineapple Whip (a definite must-have, according to Camille), we took a leisurely boat ride through the Jungle



Madeline chose two swords at the Pirates of the Carribbean ride as her souviniers, and they got  a lot of use during the day:  first, for sword fighting of course, and second, as digging tools on Tom Sawyer's Island


Madeline demonstrated her great driving skills, hoping that she could get a driver's license soon!

 
Sophia even took the wheel when she and mom went for a little spin on the Speedway.


Swords were invaluable during the main waiting periods we had throughout the day!




We ended the day with the fireworks show and the storytelling show at the castle.  It was nice to just sit, eat popcorn, and play with the light-maker that shoots bubbles that Mom thought was necessary to keep the younger kids entertained.  It also entertained the older kids (including Mom) too.
