Magic Kingdom definitely requires two days!

As I mentioned yesterday, Michelle and her family were going to spend a second day at Magic Kingdom so thats where they headed. Unfortunately, since I wanted to meet up with them in the park; I had to go to work. Apparently we were overstaffed because I was an Extra.

So I got all these random rooms throughout the one building, but I only ended up with three checkouts. The biggest problem was that the extra metro wasn't stocked... At all! So it took forever and a day to stock it, which sucked. Good news however was that I only had 14 rooms so I got to finish and leave early as I had hoped.

After work I immediately headed over to Magic Kingdom. Michelle told me they were in line for the boys first time on Splash Mountain. I was hoping to catch them before they went on but I didn't make it!

When they got off the ride she told me that they rode Haunted Mansion and it broke down on them... Twice, they rode Big Thunder Mountain, which the youngest loved! Also, they had gotten FastPasses for Peter Pan's Flight. They still had a bit before they were valid so we waited in line to see Aladdin and Jasmine. The youngest took a nap as we waited which was good because later found out that there was Extra magic hours until 1 am. He woke up when we were next in line. The oldest asked Aladdin how Abu was doing.

After that they rode Peter Pan, I just walked around for a bit then we met up again and decided to ride the Voyage of the Little Mermaid, since it was only a 20 minute wait. At that point we had covered everything they wanted to do except Tomorrowland so we headed there.

We decided to eat so we headed to Cosmic Rays again since they had food that everyone liked. Before I sat down I ran to get Fastpasses for Space Mountain. We ate and then we rode Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin. Since we all love Stitch, Michelle decided she wanted to ride Stitch's Great Escape. The boys didn't really like it cause of the dark. The youngest said it creeped him out a little. We rode the Peoplemover after. Since we still had some time before Space Mountain, we decided to split up.

The youngest wanted to ride the Astro Orbiter and the oldest didn't, instead he really wanted to ride the Tomorrowland Speedway again. So, Pete and the oldest went on the speedway and Michelle, the youngest and I headed to the Astro Orbiter. Once we saw the wait was 35 minutes we skipped it and the little guy decided to check out Club 626 and he got to dance with Stitch a little bit. He high-fived Goofy and Stitch, so he was excited.

Since the others weren't back yet Michelle let him decide if he wanted to do Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor or Buzz again and he picked the laugh floor. So we got in line, unfortunately we missed the fireworks because we were waiting inside. Michelle told Pete where we were and they met up with us and we saw the show together. Finally it was time to ride Space Mountain! Michelle asked and since the boys would have to sit completely alone she decided that she didn't want to do that to them so the adults rode.

I told Michelle and Pete to go together first. Mostly because our Fastpasses were for 10:10 until 11:10 and it was 10:50 so k didn't think they were gonna make it back in time. They went and then Michelle and I were gonna try to go but it was 11:13. She went to ask if we could use them and since it was after 11 only resort guests could get on. So the lady ignored Michelle, so Michelle complained that we were passed the time because we were ignored and we got on. I love her quick thinking. I just used Pete's resort card.

After that the youngest really wanted to ride Big Thunder Mountain again so we headed over there and since the oldest didn't want to we told him he could take two grown-ups with him and he picked Michelle and I. After that we had asked if the oldest wanted to ride Splash Mountain again but he didn't want to. So we headed out. I asked if she thought I should call in to work the next day to see them before they left and since they were leaving around 4, I would have missed them completely of I didn't call in. Since they all wanted to see me, I decided I would call in. Plus, by the time I got back and went to bed it was 2 AM. So it was the right decision!
