Then I took the time to finally update all my blogs with pictures and what not. I'm excited for my good friends, Mary Ellen and Jamie to come into town tonight and I am gonna do something with them tomorrow.
My one roommate got home and since Magic Kingdom was open until 11 we decided to go there. We got there just in time to see Wishes. My roommate showed me the spot where he likes to go to watch it, back by the carousel because then you're right in the middle of the action, fireworks are being blown off on either side of you it's pretty cool!
After Wishes we were both pretty hungry so we went to Cosmic Rays Starlight Cafe. After we ate, he wanted me to go on Space Mountain by I still won't do it. So, he said he still hasn't been to Storybook Circus so I told him we were going!
We first rode Dumbo. What made it really fun was when we each got in our own Dumbo and raced to see who could get up and down the quickest. After Dumbo, we went to the giant circus tent gift shop and since we get a discount, he got fudge and I got a cake pop and we both got cotton candy for free! Best cotton candy I've ever had!
After that we were gonna meet the characters in Pete's Silly Sideshow. So, while my roommate ran to the restroom I decided to start my collection of FastPasses (If I didn't mention yesterday, Sara suggested getting a FastPass from everything you can and make a collage out of them, and I loved that idea!!) so I got one for the Barnstormer, the new roller coaster in Storybook Circus. Then we saw The Great Goofini, The Amazing Donaldo, Madame Daisy Fortuna, and Minnie Magnifique! They all look so cool in their costumes! Since there was no line we actually got to get a picture of Donald and Goofy together!
After that we went to Enchanted Tales with Belle. It was so much more than just a storytelling experience! First you enter Belle and Maurice (Belle's Father) house and you walk through there living area complete with a beautiful portrait (seen below) of Belle as a young girl with her mother. Then you go into Maurice's workshop and see actually some diagrams for inventions like the wood chopper from the movie and a model for the giant music box in the Beasts Castle (Be Our Guest). Right before you leave the workshop you look at this mirror and you have to say take me back to the night where Belle and Beast fell in love and the mirror shows you going toward the castle and slowly expands until it closes in on a door and then magical opens and you're in the castle!!
You go in and you talk to the armoire, who assigns the parts for the story. Usually the kids get picked but sometimes an adult male will get asked to be a suit of armor or the beast! And all the props come out of the armoire! After that you enter the library and Lumiere sits on the mantle welcoming you. The whole get together is a surprise for Belle so when she comes in you yell surprise! She then re-enacts the story with Lumiere narratoring and everyone who was picked jumping in along the way. It's really cute! I would do it again!
After that we went on the Carousel and then we saw Mickeys philarmagic! The park was starting to close so we played the Sorcerer card game for a bit and then headed back. When we got back I find an empty potato chip bag on the floor I wasted my time to vacuum, sigh roommates.
