DAY THREE- January 9, 2007
We decided to sleep in and not do a wake up call for this day, since I had made sickly get up early the day before. So after we finally got our rears in gear, we went downstairs and had breakfast again at our little two person table. Today we were going to the MK, my favorite. I love the MK b/c I have no problem acting like a kid and just having fun, and the MK is the perfect place to do it! We went down to the 2nd floor, and hopped (not literally) onto the monorail. Its nice being one stop from the MK on the monorail I must say! By time you get settled in your seat its time to go!
We walked down main street, did some photo pass pics, and headed out towards adventureland. I wanted to ride pirates of the Caribbean, b/c I have not seen it since they added jack sparrow, and of course, sickly had never seen it. The line was not bad, about 10-15 minutes. I really like this ride, the visuals are really good. When the cannon ball goes by you, kinda freaked me out a bit but my stroke was only minor. Haha. After that, we continued on and walked sadly by a dry splash mountain which was closed. I really wanted to do those one and get the picture. Another reason why we must go back soon! We decided to go on BTMRR. Let me tell you. The line for this ride is very deceiving.
When we first got in line, we couldnt tell how long the line was, but it kept going and going behind walls, and I realized Disney does this a lot! I had never ridden this ride for some reason but it was pretty good, except for the fat that we were in the BACK SEAT and it was so bumpy and it whipped us around a lot. My bones ached after that!
We had a reservation for the crystal palace, but decided to skip it b/c we would be paying OOP and did one character meal and that was good enough. So we went to Pecos Bill for some grub. The line moved very fast and we took a table by the window in the corner so we could see out onto the street the food was really good and the dessert brownie thing was DELICIOUS!
After we ate, we headed to fantasyland and saw the 75 minute or so wait for peter pans flight. I dont THINK so! We grabbed some fastpasses and headed to tomorrowland. We did the carousal of progress for my dad b/c its his favorite, (go figure?) and we rode the tomorrowland transit authority and had a car to ourselves and just enjoyed people watching and goofing off a little bit
It was time for our fastpasses, so we trucked back up to fantasyland and hopped on peter pan. Let me tell you, all the moms and dads with screaming tantrum throwing kids looked very unhappy that the fastpass people got to go in ahead of them. Haha sorry!
You snooze you lose! After the ride was over, I was very thankful that I had not stood in a 75 minute line for that. It was cute as always, but not worth half my day of being hearded like cattle and standing way to close to unhappy people. I wanted to take a quick walk through toontown fair for fun, so we headed that way and did a quick your of Minnie and mickeys house.
The line to see mickey was horrendous so I said forget it and decided to get a frozen lemonade instead. The train was pulling up so we hopped on and took it all the way around the park. We sat in the back by ourselves and it was very peaceful and relaxing. We then realized it was almost parade time and I had heard on the boards that it is pretty packed on main street but to catch it at the front in frontierland, so we did. We stood out in front of the diamond horseshoe place and had a great view. As soon as the parade passed us we high-tailed it to the exit and got out before it had even hit most of main street. We decided to take the boat back to the GF which was something I have never done, but also once again, peaceful and relaxing.
To be continued
