Magic Kingdom Day 1 - 10/23/10

Waiting anxiously for the park to open

The Gate

First shot as we entered the gate

Breakfast at the Crystal Palace
(Winnie the Poo and Friends Character Meal)

*Brad, Henry and I had breakfast alone here shortly after learning that Frankie potentially had a detached retina. We thought she was going to be headed back to Charleston to see her Dr. here, but instead saw someone in Orlando who then cleared her from this diagnosis. She does have some sort of detached/floater issue, but thank goodness it isn't a big deal and they were able to meet us just before lunch. We were so SAD that morning thinking that they wouldn't be with us, but it all turned out good in the end!

Jungle Cruise in Adventureland

Pirate Goofy just after we got off Pirates of the Caribbean

The Snow White ride scared the crap out of Henry. He is petrified of the "Wicky Witch" and clutched our arms so tight. This is the only ride he was scared of...including the Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean.

My FAVORITE ride as a child

Walt Disney and Mickey

Buzz Lightyear

Mickey's Philharmagic 3D Show in Fantasy Land

Goofy's Barnstormer Rollercoaster
(henry's first rollercoaster and he LOVED it just like his mama)

There are no words to describe the magic and enchantment of the Magic Kingdom and especially seeing it through your child's eyes. It took my breath away seeing him as we entered the park and we packed the day full so we could do it ALL. We were exhausted by the days end, but it was such a good tired.
