day two

The day kicked off with breakfast at Ohana's (located in the Polynesian hotel). My boys were especially excited to meet Lilo & Stitch and Mickey Mouse. Our pals Goofy, and Pluto were there too! After autographs and photos, they passed out maracas and did a parade through the restaurant. Our food was excellent!

Then it was back to Magic Kingdom for more rides

Space Mountain (Harrison) - he loved it, and rode it twice
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad (Harrison) - loved it!
Peter Pan's Flight - we were very lucky to meet Pan himself!

Mickey's PhilarMagic - a favorite for all of us! Sawyer trying to reach out and grab the 3-D images was just priceless.
Golden Carousel - Sawyer wanted to ride this over and over


Dumbo - I still remember riding these when I was five years old!

Mad Tea Party - many thanks to Jonathan for riding this with the boys, as it makes me sick to even look at!
Astro Orbiter - I decided at the top that I couldn't stomach this one either, I just can't handle rides that go around in circles. Blech. The boys (especially Sawyer) loved this! You are supposed to be 7 to ride alone, but no one questioned Harrison when I wimped out of my rocket ride.
Stitch's Great Escape - didn't scare Harrison
Barnstormer - another favorite of Harrison's from our last time at Disney, and a favorite for both boys this time!
It's a Small World - I got a little teary thinking about my grandmother and how this ride was her favorite!

That night we went to Epcot for just a couple of hours, the boys enjoyed Spaceship Earth (the new ending is so fun!) and The Seas with Nemo they were also thrilled to discover McDonald's chicken nuggets and french fries for dinner! Aah, all the comforts of home!

YEAH!!! My grandmom and I used to ride It's a Small World over and over again. Memories the boys will have for a lifetime. I thought it was closed for renovations, glad you got to ride it.

Your boys are so cute! That Peter Pan, not so much. ;) Is Stitches Great Escape similar to the Buzz ride?
