Day 2 - 3 January 2013

First full day!  SO excited!

Morning EMHs at MK today and we are up at 5:30am to catch the bus and be there early for the opening show!  It was very foggy and misty! Made our way in the fog to the front for a great view of the opening show!  I tried my best not to cry since we were surrounded by a TON of people! =)   I found if I looked at Bek during the show I would tear up, so I just could not look at her during it! =) . 

She did not want to see me cry! =)

And we were in!  The first view of the castle was very dark and foggy, very unusual and great! 

Very foggy, but nice!

Bek wanted to go on the carousel first...so we did! Then Peter Pan (5 min wait when got on, 30 min wait by the time we got off!) and then Its a Small World.

Dada and Bek's first ride at MK!

This horse was so tall!

It's a Small World after all....

I really wanted to get an earlier BBB appointment, so I figured we would head over there at 7:45 to try to get a walk-in, and we did!  We had a WONDERFUL Fairy Godmother in Training!! The whole beauty treatment is not really Beks thing, but she loved it! The posing as a princess for the after pictures was funny, SO not her!  I love her!  

She was trying so hard!

We had a little bit of time before Chef Mickey breakfast so I *HAD* to ride Haunted Mansion so we headed that way via a Photopass Photographer (or 2!).

Fairy Godmother!

...with no doors and no windows...

The ride stopped her on our first ride!  We rode it 3 times on the trip and it stopped 2 of the 3 times!

After HM it was time to get on the monorail and head to Chef Mickey, but we were running a bit early we did a ride around the resorts on the Monorail (and Bek fell asleep). Mickey's was GREAT! Wonderful food, great character interaction!  Goofy was the best, he tried to steal Bek =)  She thought it was great!

Tired girlie!

We thought then we would head back to the resort to chill for a bit since we wanted to watch the Electrical Parade tonight (it was not planned to show again while we were visiting). Back to MK lines were crazy long (which we expected...)! We did Tea Cups, Carousel of Progress (LOVE this attraction!!), Bear Jamboree (Bek thought it was funny), Pirates of the Caribbean, fast pass for Dumbo. Supper at Cosmic Rays (great food and a great view of castle).

Bek at the Mine sneak peek!

Growing coaster!

Gaston!

very excited and happy!

Then we rode the People Mover then found spot for Electrical parade then left before fireworks. Was raining/misting for the parade so it was kinda yucky and cold, but the parade was beautiful!

The park was very crowded, but being that it was right after New Years and schools were still out we expected it to be very crowded and just planned our first day at MK to just be one of just taking in the Magic!  And we sure did!

And here is what we came back to find in our room...

 

And the end of day 2!
