Disney, Day 2

We made no attempt to be to Magic Kingdom by the time it opened.  We preferred to let the kids sleep in a bit.  The first thing we did when we crossed through the gates was.....get a wheelchair.  Then, we powered our way to Splash Mountain.  Don and I had been building up this ride to the kids for weeks!  We told them how we went on it over and over on our honeymoon.  We did get to bypass some of the line due to the wheelchair :-).  The kids loved it!  Megan was a little scared, Big Thunder Mountain was closed :-(.  We also went on The Pirates of the Caribbean, Magic Carpet Ride, Jungle Cruise, The Haunted Mansion, Prince Charming Carousel, and a second round of Splash Mountain.  We ate at the Crystal Ballroom, which is a Winnie the Pooh themed restaraunt.  The family with the screaming kid was also there dining.  We took a mid-afternoon break to go back to the hotel for swimming, then returned to the Magic Kingdom.









 The boys thought the "It's a Small World" ride was absolute torture.
Megan loved it

Splash Mountain was by far the favorite.  We did not venture at all to Tomorrowland or Space Mountain.  Too much to do in one day, especially with the wheelchair.
