Yes, I know we just had dinner but let’s get a snack-PART 4
After we finished our meal, Lucy and Aaron made their way over to the Tomorrowland Speedway to use their FP’s while Olivia and I went on over to Space Mountain for ours. It was a bit of a weird ride for me because the music wasn’t playing.
We met back up and decided NOT to venture over to Fronterland for our Big Thunder Mountain RR FP but instead we opted for a snack (yes, we just ate dinner) and then to stake out a spot for Celebrate the Magic and Wishes. This would be EVENT #2 that would be new for us. I am ashamed to say we have never stopped to really watch Wishes and have never really seen any of Celebrate the Magic.
First we stopped at Aunt Gravity for Lucy (a Root beer Float) and Aaron (Tropical smoothie).
Olivia and I had more celebrated Disney snack in mind from the Cheshire Café. Yup the cupcake cups were finally happening. Both were amazing but very sweet...I am a frosting girl and I barely made it through. Can’t find the name of the Strawberry one but it was a bit better than the Mocha, if I was forced to just get one (well we shared them…I am definitely not recommending you get more than one unless there is more than one person eating them!!).
We staked a spot in front of the castle for our night time entertainment. I was really blow away by Celebrate the Magic. It was like World of Color but I could actually see it (don’t get me started on the TERRIBLE viewing for that!). I loved the castle backdrop. Wishes was beautiful and familiar since we have seen bits and pieces as we usually are racing around Tomorrowland during it. It was great to finally see Tink.
After the shows we hit the Tea Cups and then made our way over to Buzz to use the FP I had gotten when we had decided to skip BTMRR. Aaron is really competitive about this….me not so much so he was pretty mad that his laser blaster wasn’t working right (yeah…whatever) and I beat him.
We took the secret walk to Fantasyland and rode Barnstormer, Under the Sea and Pooh.
We stopped to get this photopass picture outside of Under the Sea.
It was 11:40 by this point so we had time for one more ride. As we walked by the 7DMT the wait was 45 minutes and I really wanted to wait it out but I was over-ruled (we had ridden it several times in May and had FP's later in the week!) and we ended up at the Haunted Mansion.
It ended up being a pretty great night....SO glad we opted to hit the parks on our first night!
I have in my notes that we had good bus karma coming home so that was nice to read.
