day 7 - day 2 of Magic Kingdom

We had an early breakfast reservation at the Crystal Palace, home to friendship day and breakfast with Pooh Bear.  So early that we were the 2nd family in the park and we were able to get great shots in front of the castle.  The girls had mickey mouse shaped waffles and pancakes.  After breakfast, the park still was not officially opened so were able to walk through the castle and right onto the Pooh Ride, Haunted Mansion and Small World.  That was the last no-line rides of the day.  The park was packed by 11:00 a.m. and we could not ride anything for less than a 30 minute wait.  Summed up, it felt as if we walked aimlessly from one side of the park to the other.  We were able to get great seats for the afternoon character parade.  We ventured onto Tom Sawyer's Island, child swapped on Space Mountain, which is still a great ride.  Both of the girls submitted a joke to the laugh floor with Mike from Monsters Inc. and both jokes were chosen.  We decided to skip the 2 hour wait for Rapunzel.  We got front row seats for the night fireworks and castle display.  Another very late night, but a great ending to a great vacation.
