Day 2 12/11

Up at 0600, It's hard to break this habit, breakfast at Spoodles nice atmosphere and no people. I think we were the third table. Quick stop at the room to adjust clothing, layers is the key, and then it was off to MK by bus. This takes about 1/2 hr and we made it in time to see the opening by Mickey and friends. Tip don't stand under the awning is you want to see the show. We cut through Adventure land to Frontier land and did BTM and SM both were walk-ons then we took the train around to Toontown and walked through to Fantasyland for our first Philharmagic viewing. I loved this show

Then we strolled over to Crystal Palace for lunch. about 10 min wait to be seated, the place was packed with no stand-by available. Our table was decorated with streamers and confetti. Food was OK the setting is beautiful. Pooh never came to our table but had lots of attention from Eyore, and Piglett. Tigger stopped but moved on quickly. Did get pics with them all. Birthday cupcake arrived and the little girl at a table behind us thought it was for her. Since I don't eat sugar after I blew out the candle I asked her parents is she could have it and they were delighted at the offer and accepted. I also recieved a card signed by all the characters. I asked our waitress where I could buy the mickey confetti because we always put confetti in our christmas cards and since I was mailing them this week I would like to use it. She said its not for sail but she would give me some. She came back with a drink cup 3/4 full, more than enough for my cards. Now that's magic.

After lunch we went back to the resort for a rest, DH watched some football and I went to the concierge lounge to get help finding a cable for my camera.
They tracked down one at MGM so I woke DH and off we went to MGM for a quick walk about then back to the resort to see if it would work. Yahoo, success now I can print the picture for the christmas cards and mail them from here.

We took the bus back to MK and hopped the Monorail to Poly for dinner at Ohana's. Very loud, too much food, lol, the bloody mary was excellent. Then it was back to the resort and some much needed sleep.
