DONE

After 10 different post and countless numbers of pictures I am finally done posting vacation pics. I promise this is the last one....

Trying on hats became a game for Kate during our Disney visit. She must have tried on 50 or more different types. By the end of the trip the boys had joined in but never came close to catching Kate. Here are a few of my favorites...

Character Sightings

Animal Kingdom

Yes, I am STILL posting Disney pictures. I am almost done tho...PROMISE! I love Disney and even I am getting tired of looking at these pictures, but they have to be documented for my posterity. So, here is a condensed version of our trip to the Animal kingdom. It is a beautiful park with animals, trails, lots of wooden sculptures, and we could never forget Everest....one of the best roller coasters Disney has to offer.

Disney's Hollywood Studios

Tom Sawyer Island

Tom Sawyer Island is located in Frontierland in the Magic Kingdom. Last time we went to Disney we didn't explore this little island. It was a nice little surprise though. You have to take a raft that looks just like one built by Tom Sawyer or Huck Finn. The island itself has trails winding through it, forts to explore, and cave like tunnels. It is a nice "quiet" retreat from the rest of the park.

Which way do we go?

Gotta love Kate's face in this one.

Look closely and you can see Kate and Cary in the window.

Ferry v. Monorail

To get to the Magic Kingdom you have to take a ferry or the monorail. The monorail is technically a few minutes shorter but you end up being stuck with a ton of people who are usually grumpy, dirty, sweaty and don't have such a nice odor. We prefer the ferry with clean, crisp air and the wind blowing in your face...and the view is much nicer too.

Magic Kingdom

The Magic Kingdom is my favorite of the 4 Disney Parks. It is full of magic and wonder and brings me back to my childhood of princesses and fairies.

Big Thunder Mountain....not my favorite roller coaster but still so much fun!

Liberty Belle Riverboat takes you all around Tom Sawyer's Island
One of my all time favorite movies as a kid was Swiss Family Robinson. The Robinson's lived in the most perfect tree house.
For some reason, Kate fell in love with the alien Stitch from "Lilo and Stitch" on this trip. She has never even seen the movie. She kept saying over and over, "He's sooo cute!"
We were able to see two different parades at Magic Kingdom. The first was the "Move it! Shake it! Celebrate it!" street party and the second was "Celebrate a Dream Come True" parade. I LOVE the parades. They are full of fun, music, and tons of different characters.






Between Main Street, U.S.A, Adventureland, Frontierland, Tomorrowland, Fantasyland, and Liberty Square there is so much to do and see in the Magic Kingdom.
