After having our fun with Pinocchio and Chicken Little we see what we came to see....

The Castle

[JustaT]

First we stop and watch the show on the castle stage (not sure why I can't remember the name....we saw this 3 times...it was Avery's favorite show).

Then we buy two 10 dollar balloons...GULP!!!! on a side note...these balloons are still with us and look exactly like they did when we first purchased them....I should do a photo diary of them just to see how long it takes them to deflate....on Monday it will be TWO WEEKS

Then off to fantasyland....first stop the carousel (we rode them at least 10 times this day)

[JustaT]

Let me just say....it was EXTREMELY BUSY this day. Most of the rides had a pretty long wait. I doubt it was as busy as it gets during peak season, but I didn't expect there to me nearly that many people.

We rode a few things and then off to get the girls in princess gear for lunch at Cinderella's Royal Table.





The wait to get in was tough because the girls were all really not wanting to be standing in a line nicely. We were moved from one waiting area to another and that didn't bode well with the tiny ones. Here is an example...

[JustaT]

Saffron and Avery did very well because they could see Cinderella and they wanted to use princess manners. It also kept them entertianed looking at Jaq and Gus up high on the wall.

Here is my best shot of everyone and Cinderella



I know....not too good. The other group got better pictures and then we do have the pictures that they took which turned out great, but I don't have a scanner handy. I will post those later when I get them.

OK....now comes the part that made this trip worth EVERY penny and more. The anticipation was just overwhelming.

Avery was patiently awaiting


Lillian was just pleased to not be waiting in line. Finally....some crayons to eat

[JustaT]

First, Aurora

What an embrace


Avery was beaming


This is what I call happy

[JustaT]

Next up, Snow White (she was OVER JOYED to meet her)

[JustaT]

At this point we were all fighting back the tears. That is, all of us except

MEMA


I love this picture....really captures the feeling of that moment

[JustaT]

Next up, Jasmine



Even Lillian get's into the action.....although I am not quite sure what she is looking at I could go on and on with captions for this one, we could even make a game of it. This picture CRACKS ME UP!!!!

[JustaT]

Finally, Belle

[JustaT]

Avery was VERY proud of her lipstick marks....she asked me not to wash them off or mess them up.

[JustaT]

Avery enjoyed the yummy sunday that Cinderella made



But Lillian the sunday

[JustaT]

Bottom line for us.....it was ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY, 100%, WOULD HAVE MISSED A PRICELESS MOMENT worth every penny. It might not be as wonderful for the older kids, but for my little girls....I would have paid double the price for that experience. I don't even think I ate anything.

I am off for the evening, but I will finish Day 3 soon. Thanks for hanging in!!!!

makes me think of that movie "look who's talking" when JT ask the kid "what are you looking at? are you thinking what i'm thinking" and the baby says "yeah, LUNCH!"

I agree about CRT....definately worth every penny!! Pictures are pricless and so are the memories! My kids absolutely loved the wishing ceremony and still talk about it months later!

Definately, a must do on our trips!
