Walt Disney Part Three

Tomorrow land was pretty cool, at this point everyone was getting slower but thank god that we had the stroller with us so to limit the kids walking.

Miranda wanted to go to the roller coaster in tomorrow land and we were all set, but Lex ended up being too small.  Which I was happy about as my neck was still hurting from the last roller coaster.

So instead we walked around a bit then decided to take a ride on the Transportation of Tomorrow, which is a cart thing that moves by (I think) magnets.  It was really cool because you take a escalator up (but it does not have stairs, just a ramp) then you get on a revolving floor and then hop on the one of four carts.  This transportation system does not stop it just keeps going.  It takes you on a tour of Tomorrow land so we ended up seeing most of it.  It was so much fun that the kids wanted to do it again, so we did, we had time to kill before the fire works :)

After the second time on the ride we left Tomorrow Land and returned to the front of the castle, found a good spot and waited there for the final 20 mins before the fireworks began.  While we waited (and 10 to 15 thousand other people) we watched the castle change colours, it was really cool.

Right at 9 pm the fireworks started and they were the best that we had ever seen, the kids loved them and it was narrated by Jimmine Cricket.  The fireworks lasted 13 mins, they dimmed the lights around the castle (but of course not the street lamp right by us) and then lit up the sky.

Of course then as soon as the fireworks were done it was time to go, and everyone was moving at once for the only entrance to the park.  Surprisingly enough it took very little time to make our way out of Magic Kingdom and back to the Ferry landing which we decide to take back instead of the monorail again.  Waiting in line for the Ferry only took about 15 to 20 mins, Disney really knows how to move large amounts of people.  Lex passed out waiting in line and Matthew shortly after the Ferry started back to the front of the park.

As we walked back to the front of the park to get back on the shuttle back to the parking area we needed to rest Matthews head on a few towels so he did not fall out of the stroller and Lex slept on her new kitty that she got.  The lines for the shuttle were mad and it would have taken us another 30 mins (or so) to get on and then ride it for about 5 mins to the cars.  We decided to walk.

The walk back to the car only took about 5 mins, we packed the kids up and then headed back to the villa.  A great full day at Disney.

We got back home around 11 put the kids straight to bed and then relaxed for a few minutes before heading ourselves.

It was amazing how well the kids behaved this day, sure they did not listen a few times but they waited patiently in all the lines and other than a few "I want to go home now" they had a blast.

I had been kicked and hit in the head with a balloon while waiting for the Ferry (and neither by my own kids) but still was a wicked day and well worth the price of admission.

Next morning found out the Kath and Ian actually arrived after us, that is why we could not find their car when we arrived.  They had a good day but returned to the house by 6:30.
