Walt Disney - Day 2

Well, I am sorry that it has taken a while to get our day 2 posted, but the internet kept acting up on me until now...

But day 2 was a whole lot of fun too! It was a little harder getting our princess up and moving because we didn't get in to bed until after 1am. But when we finally got moving, we went to Hollywood Studios to have breakfast at Hollywood & Vine.

There we ate with Leo and June from Little Einsteins and JoJo and Goliath from JoJo's Circus. She loved meeting them all but she didn't really feel like hugging JoJo. Who can blame her! I don't know that I would want to hug a 6 foot tall clown! She did linger quite a while with Goliath though. Her favorite thing at breakfast (food-wise) was her Mickey Mouse waffle - not that it was that big a surprise.

From there we went to meet Woody and Buzz. She almost didn't want to meet them, but once it was our turn she loved it! She was jumping around all over the place once we left their area and grinning ear to ear.

We wandered around after that and Katie found a fountain that she had to throw some money in, of course. We then headed over to see Disney Playhouse Live on stage and were chosen as the "First Family" and got to go in and choose where we wanted to sit before anyone else. So we were front and center to see many of the Playhouse Disney characters - Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy, Pluto, Pooh, Tigger, the Little Einstieins, and Handy Manny. We then went to go on Woody's 3D ride - where Christine and I whipped everyone else around us at the game. Katie just laughed and laughed as we spun around and around and had things flying at us. It was fun, but princess was getting tired. So we headed back to the hotel for a cozy, little nap and some lunch.

Once we were all rested, we got ourselves together and headed to Epcot and the Norweigian pavillion for dinner with the princesses. We did get caught in the rain though which made us make a quick pit stop for some pochos... To say that she was in awe of all of them running around there would be an understatement. She first had a portrait made with Belle. Then the parade of princesses came around - Ariel, Aurora, Jasmine, and Cinderella. They were all awesome with Katie and she just smiled and smiled and smiled. She did ask Jasmine where Rajah was, but other than that, she just grinned and hugged them.

Dinner was pretty good, and after that, we headed over to Mexico to do some shopping and take a boat ride through the Mexican countryside. She definitely liked that, especially the fake fireworks. Nemo and friends came next. It was neat and Katie thought it was "cool" seeing Nemo and all the other characters. At the end of the ride, there was an aquarium where we got to run around and some coloring activities for the bugga.

We left Nemo and head to Spaceship Earth. Katie was very excited to get there, but then was a little disappointed that the "roller coaster" was not very fast. I guess Goofy's roller coaster got her excited about roller coasters! Oh well...

Our last stop was a visit with more characters. Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, Stitch (who Katie had never seen before), and Goofy. She just hugged them all and got some more great pictures. After another full day, we came home on the monorail - where we got to be co-pilots in the front of the train. We hit the beds and slept well...

The next morning, Katie and I swam for a while after breakfast and then we packed up and headed out the family reunion.

Enjoy the pictures!!
