Day 2: It's all about expectations



Today was a crazy day, full of ups and downs.

The day started at 3:30 for Maren who was unable to get back to sleep. So, our long awaited trip to Magic Kingdom was already off to a rough start!  But, we arrived  at MK for the girls' 9:00 am appointment at the Bibbity Bobbity Boutique. 


Maeve was a little unsure of the whole thing, overwhelmed by the size of the park. She was so shy that she didn't even want to put on her dress.  Maren loved every minute of the princess experience!

Then we started making our way through the parks. Crowds were high, and it was a HOT day so we were all hot and tired by lunch. So much so, that we even considered canceling our dinner at Cinderella's castle to head back to the hotel. But, we soldiered on and had a pretty good afternoon. All told, we rode:

-Merry Go Round (twice)
-Under The Sea
-Barnstormer (the kids all loved this junior roller coaster)
-Dumbo! 
-Pirates of the Caribbean (poor Maeve was terrified)
-Swiss Family Robinson tree House
-Tea Cup Ride
-Enchanted Tiki Room
-Jungle cruise

We ended the day with dinner at at Cinderella's Castleand the kids loved it!  Maren and Maeve got to meet all of the princesses and have pictures taken with them and Beckett even got a kiss from Ariel!

And, unbelievably the kids still had energy for a quick swim after we got home!  They fell into bed though and fell asleep within seconds. 

Maeve made my day by telling me that she saw a shooting star and wished for a perfect day like today. 

Tomorrow we're off to Epcot!
