Day 3's breakfast consisted of the boy’s favorite breakfast item, BACON! Any meal with any amount of bacon makes these kiddos happy.
Everyone finished their bacon and eggs we proceeded to get ready to head to the park. The boys made their beds.
I threw a small load of laundry in the wash mainly socks, undies, a towel or two and the boys swimsuits. This way I could come back midday, put the clean items away and be done with it. Again, another perk of the RV vs a hotel!
K dressed and ready to go!
We were out the door, on the ART shuttle and inside DCA by 10:15. The first stop was to be RSR for FP’s but they were already out for the day! We rode it several times over the past two trips so if we weren’t able to get on this trip we would be okay with that.
We headed back toward Mermaid and hopped right on. One of K’s favorite characters is Ariel. In fact, if you ask him who he is going to marry he will tell you mermaid in a very matter of fact two year old voice. I still don’t know what it is, the tail or the seashells? Maybe it’s the long red hair... who knows. But I do know that both K and DH are head over heels for Ariel. You know it’s bad when someone asks DH if he is holding a spot in line while his daughter uses the restroom. Yeah, no, he is in line to meet her himself. 6’3” and in line to meet Ariel.
After taking a trip under the sea not once, but twice we headed to Soarin’ to grab FP’s. Did I mention that it has been raining all morning? No, I forgot that part. It was just a slight drizzle so nothing too bad… yet. (This might explain the lack of pictures). We obtained FP’s for Soarin’ and I could hardly wait to ride it. I love everything about that ride; the sights, the smells, the music, and the goose bumps that I get at the end when we arrive at the castle. I’ll admit I often get teary-eyed at the end of this ride.
It was a bit cold and still drizzling so we ducked into Elias & Co. to check out the prices of the sweatshirts. I couldn’t believe it! $60+ for a sweatshirt. I was cold and they were cute, but I was not that cold and they were not that cute! While looking about I spotted Santa sitting alone without a line so I took K over to see him. Santa called him over and asked if he would like a candy cane. K climbed up on his lap and then refused to smile at the camera! I am pretty sure he just wanted the candy cane. Such a little stinker!
This was a bit unusual for him as he LOVES Santa.
The drizzle was now becoming a full on shower. The big boys headed to ToT and I took K to Disney Jr Live.
Guys ToT shot.. loved the Photopass+!
Another item checked off our bucket list. K absolutely LOVED Disney Jr. I also enjoyed it. I loved to watch the smile spread across his face as some of his favorite characters came to life on stage. I also loved to watch him sing and clap along. This will definitely be a must do for every trip for as long as it brings him this much enjoyment.
K and I walked out from the Disney Jr. building and out into a complete downpour!! The stroller and everything in it was completely soaked even though I left the sunshade cover over everything to protect it from the rain. The guys caught up to us and we decided at this point to head back to the RV.
It seemed to take forever for the ART shuttle to come. Everyone was drenched and starting to get chilled. Back at the RV I made French dip sandwiches, French fries and some onion soup. It was the perfect meal to warm our bellies. The boys laid down to watch Peter Pan while I put away the clean load of laundry. The boys were asleep within a few minutes so I decided to also take a quick nap.
After nap, DH popped some popcorn to refill K’s Mickey bucket. K was completely thrilled with the idea of putting new popcorn in his empty bucket. He spent at least 15 minutes at the counter playing with the bucket and eating a popcorn snack while we prepared to head back to the park for the night.
The big boys also grabbed a quick snack. Napping must make them hungry.
K all ready to head back to the park! Such a goofy little guy.
After drying out, warming up and resting we headed back to DCA. First stop, Screamin’.. Did I ride it?! You bet I did! I rode it and I actually LOVED it. I wanted to ride again, but decided to let DH have a turn with the big boys. None of the Screamin’ photos loaded to our Photopass+ disc and now that I think about it, the screens were off to view the pictures after the ride so it makes me wonder if the camera was not working
. K and I headed to the boardwalk and won a large plush Woody to go along with the large plush Bullseye that we won back in March. He was thrilled. We met back up with the big boys and walked along the boardwalk and fed some ducks a few goldfish crackers (I know a big no-no) while A and B rode the swings. We then headed to Taste Pilot’s Grill for dinner. This was another must do on our bucket list and it made our tummies very happy. After eating we bought K a light-up balloon, which lasted the entire duration of the trip and also the car ride home. Money well spent for an item that brought hours of smiles.
We headed back towards the Mad Tea Party and let K dance for a bit. Someone gave him a light up ice cube and he was thrilled. He had to place it on the ground and then dance around it. Some girls asked if they could record his dance moves and I said sure. They got a kick out him going around and around.
We then decided to head towards Bug’s Land in hopes that it had died down a bit. It had! We were able to hop right on to Heimlich’s Chew Chew and then watched It’s Tough to be a Bug, which K loved.
After riding a few more rides in Bug’s Land we made our way towards Carsland. I just love the holiday overlay in this area. It is so bright with lights. We rode Mater’s Junkyard Jamboree.
After checking out Cars Land we made a group decision to hop on Soarin’ before heading back to the RV to relax and get to bed fairly early. We had reservations the following morning for Mickey and Friends at 7am and wanted to be well rested!
K fast asleep with the stuffed Woody doll that we won earlier that day.
and thank you!
