Been a while, but hopefully will get this finished up soon. Hope everyone had a wonderful Holiday. On Wednesday we went back to the Magic Kingdom. I had not checked park opening and just assumed it was the same time as Monday so when we arrived what I though was an hour early the gates were opening. Today's plan was Fantasyland but Nick wanted to ride Buzz Lightyear and Space Mountain again, so we headed to tomorrow land first. We walked onto Buzz and waited about 5 minutes for Space Mountain. On the way Nick wanted to ride Tomorrow land Speedway. So he and Eddie did that while I made a couple calls and had a snack. I like that you can sit in the Grandstand and watch. It's not really a ride I wanted to ride alone but it was nice to still be able to see them. On the way into Fantasyland Nick said he needed to stop for a restroom break and when we stopped we noticed a line, when I asked the castmember she said it was Gaston and the line was about to close. We were so happy to get in this line at just the right time, as with many times this trip we had alot of luck happening upon characters.
Gaston was absolutely awesome. Nick talked to him for about 15 minutes and when he told him that he saw his bow and arrow in the gift shop, Gaston insisted that Nick see his real bow and arrow and took him into Gaston's tavern. This was by far the coolest character interaction and made Nick's day.
After that we rode barnstormer and Dumbo. While we were waiting for Dumbo I started looking for somewhere for lunch and found a 2pm opening at BOG which was right between fastpasses. I was unable to book online but when I called got the reservation. I was so excited to be able to go in the castle. After Dumbo, we rode Its a small world and then our Peter Pan fast pass. Peter pan wait time was over an hour so I was really glad we did a fast pass. We also did the Little Mermaid which was only about a 5 minute wait and was so pretty. It was the first time I had ridden it and I loved it. Then it was time for Be OUr Guest. The line seemed really long but we were in and out within 45 minutes so everything ran very smoothly. I had the Crouque Monsieur and loved it, it was just the right amount of salty. Eddie had the prime roast sandwich and said it was also great. Nick had the macaroni and also liked it. BOG was a little more expensive than other counter service but the quality of the food was higher and the atmosphere was definitely worth it. After that we had to rush to make our Ana and Elsa Fastpass. Elsa is very formal and Ana is a lot of fun and excitement. Nick loved Ana but was not impressed with Elsa.
Next was 7D mine train. Next time I will definitely plan better so that we can ride this one more than once. It was one of Nick's favorites but the standby was always way to long to wait. After that we went the circus to see this guy:
Then we did some souvenir shopping, bought a couple new pins and did some trading. We then went to ride Winnie the Pooh. THis was about a 30 minute wait and I think the longest line we waited in this trip. We then walked around a bit and did some pin trading and headed to CHef Mickey's. I think next time we will try this one for breakfast instead. After dinner we went back and rode the train and the Magic Carpets and BTMR. We then did a little more shopping and bought some popcorn as a snack on the way back to the hotel.
