Our Walt Disney Adventure - Day 3 Magic Kindgom

It's taking a long time for me to get through writing about our vacation because life gets busy and if I do take some time to sit and write I feel guilty.  But I do like having a place to go to and share all the memories.  With a mother with Alzheimer's who knows what my future will hold.  Plus, it's a place for my kids to look back on too.

Anyway, day 3 in Disney brought beautiful weather FINALLY.  We started the day by eating breakfast at the hotel and then the kids played in the hotel's arcade.  Our schedule at each park was jammed pack with food reservations and fast passes so having a chance to squeeze in fun at the arcade and pool was important for them.  We took the bus to Magic Kingdom and arrived in time for "Move it!  Shake it!" party with some of the famous characters.

Then we spent the day walking around.  We had fast passes for a boat safari and Pirates of the Caribbean.  We also had a chance to pick and choose the rides we wanted to go on.  The lines were long but we got through some of them rather quickly.  The popular rides had a long that could take up to two hours or longer so that's why I would recommend getting as many fast passes as possible.  With all the money you spend on Disney it would be a shame to spend so much of the day just waiting in line after line.

 We also joined the huge crowd to watch the 2pm parade.  This was our chance to see every character.

In the evening we all agreed to head back to the hotel for rest and dinner and then headed back to Magic Kingdom to watch the firework show.

The firework show was amazing.  This was the best firework show any of us have ever seen.  Absolutely breathtaking.
