When we weren’t at the Magic Kingdom, we were at the resort in the heated pool. It wasn’t super hot there, but the water was still warm. We stayed at one of the resort hotels (Carribean Beach) and loved it. It was very easy to take the buses back and forth from the park to the hotel (for an afternoon nap for S).
Everyone warned us about the long lines at Disney, but we never had a prob. We never waited more than 20 minutes for any ride. Not many grown up rides there, though. James and I love the super scary roller coasters and there are none of those. The only “grown up” rides we did were the Thunder Mountain coaster and the Haunted Mansion ride (which is cool for the effects). We took a steamboat ride while there and a train ride, not to mention the many rides on the carousel. I tried to get Sophie to go on the Dumbo ride, but she wasn’t having none of it. Too scary for her.
We’ll go back again when Sophie is a bit older. Next time I’ll do the Bibbity Bobbity Boutique with her (if she wants to do it). This time I deemed her too young, though I think maybe she wasn’t (makes a girl feel special to be so fussed over!)
The one day we took off to lounge at the pool, Sophie ended up with pink eye. It was no prob, though. A shuttle came to pick us up and drop us at an Immediate Care type place. We had meds for her within two hours. Getting the meds into said child was more of a problem than actually obtaining them….
OMG brownie!!!! (At Cinderella’s Royal Dinner)

Sophie was a happy kid. She loved the dinner.
One last shot of Cinderella before we headed back to the hotel. Sophie fell asleep on the tram about two minutes after we boarded and slept the whole way back. The thumb in the mouth is a sure sign of fatigue.

I can’t remember this fairy’s name, but I know she’s a light fairy.
Meeting Tinkerbell!!!
Garden fairy. Can’t remember her name, either, but she was deliciously in character with a southern accent and all.
More eating!
Yum! Sophie never says no to ice cream (or French Fries, OMG).
A pretty shot of the Princess House right before the Specrolight parade (magnificent!). The fireworks were awesome too. We watched both the two days we spent at the Magic Kingdom.
That’s all, folks!!!
