Part 3.1 - Disney Magic Kingdom

Part 3.1: The Disney Experience

The big day finally arrived for the kids,... we are off to the many lands of Disney!  We double checked that we had our lists, maps, times, and Magic Bands, and we were off to the front of the campground to catch the Green Ferry, direct to Magic Kingdom.  We broke Magic Kingdom into two sides, one that we could try and cover on Tuesday and the other we could attend more on Saturday when we returned.

 

Magic Kingdom - Tuesday

As we cruised along the water to the other side of the lake, Madison saw the top of the castle for the first time and her eyes widened and her face beamed with excitement!  We soon got off the ferry and joined the crowd of people entering the gates and bag check.  The weather was looking great for the day and we were through the lines quickly and easily.

We were entering the main gates and heading to guest services for Becky's medical pass, and off to the left we see Sleeping Beauty!  The girls quickly got in line to meet her and they were so excited!

As you can see, what a busy day to start off our vacation.  We were all very tired by the time we left that evening but it was a very good day.  No melt-downs or lost kids, and lots of smiles and memories.  So many photos to chose from but these give a little snap shot of our day.  I'll be posting a link to a slideshow in a my End of the Year post, so keep a look out for that.
