Day Two: Disney

Day Two @ Disney World:  For our first day at a park, we started at the Magic Kingdom.  We were there all day and it was a long day because it rained late in the afternoon, but we had to stick around for dinner.  Before it rained, we rode some favorites like Buzz Lightyear's ride, the Silly Tea Cups, Dumbo, the train and we drove the cars on the racetrack.  We probably waited in the longest lines of the week, but lines got shorter as the week went on.  
We had dinner reservations at Tony's Town Square so we could eat and watch the Electrical Parade.  While waiting for our reservation time, Brody and I slipped in and met Mickey Mouse.  He was beyond thrilled to meet the REAL Mickey Mouse.  Because of the rain, we ended up eating inside so our view of the parade wasn't as good, but it was definitely warmer!  The fireworks were just starting as we exited the park and watching them from the bus stop seemed about perfect for my kids...not as loud, but a decent view above the tree line.  After a magical day, there was no fight from anyone when we settled them all in their beds that evening.
