Day 2 - The Magic Kingdom Part 1
After getting to sleep at 3, DS woke up at 5. Yes 5am!
I was shocked, at around 5:45 we all just decided to wake up and go for our showers.
We wanted to arrive at the Magic Kingdom before or straight after the opening ceramony. We grabbed a horrible lunch at the hotel
(didn't do that again) then jumped in a cab to the Magic Kingdom
We got to the Ticket and Transportation centre and waited for a ferry. Seeing the castle in the distance was amazing.
I hadn't seen that beautiful castle in 8 years
We went through bag checking and moved quickly up to the ticket boths. After just recieving our tickets (at the T&T centre) they had been demagnetised
the CM that was at our booth just looked at us and said gruntly, I'll be back in 5. She walked realy slowly untill we couldn't see her. She took more than 5 minutes, that's for sure
After about 10 minutes she waddled back and handed our tickets back. They worked fine
Thankfully.
Entering Main Street was magical, everything looked so sureal and clean, I know, don't ask
. Everything just seemed to gleem. We were close to the castle when we heard some familiar music. It was the Trolley Parade
I realy love that little peice of magic
After watching the Trolley Parade we took a left and headed for the Haunted Mansion, we practicly walked on
This was a first for me, as on my last visit I was too young.
I realy enjoyed it, I was petrified during the stretching room sequence, the CM that we had tapped a handfull of people on the shoulder during the blackout which caused a scream
After the HM, we strolled into fantasy land were we rode, It's a small world, Peter Pans flight and experienced Mickeys Philarmagic which was a blast.
After the joy of Fantasyland we visited Toon Town. I realy wanted to meet Mickey, no one understood me to be honest, why would a teenage boy wish to meet a Mouse? Well I will let the Mousebuzzers in with a secret of mine, When I was young I had a phobia of all characters, it started of just being a little scared of them but as I grew older my phobia grew bigger, I started having panic attacks when seeing them and would get myself into a state. So this trip I wanted to meet Mickey because it would be my first every time meeting him. We went to the judjes tent. I was realy nervous and to admit a little scared. The CM took us to the room where Mickey was and to our suprise Minnie was with him too
The que got shorter and shorter and before I knew it I was with the Mouse
It was a simply magical experience, he took time with me (he obviously knew how excited I was) I told Mickey and Minnie how I was going to work for them and I also told them how long I have waited for this moment. They were both realy kind a sweet. It was a moment I will never forget.
Part 2 coming soon
