Disney World! The Magic Kingdom!! Bring it!!!
Rather than give a blow by blow....enjoy the following photos.....
At the main entrance.....
It's Halloween time at TMK....
Everyone loves a parade....
Mickey and Walt.....not Lenin as Ben insisted....
Out first ride...the magic carpets from Alladin....
Splash Mountain.....
This sign wasn't lying.....
As is evident from this photo.....
The Haunted House.....
My new friend whose name I can't remember.....we're not close friends.....
Alice's tea cups.....
Amber and Katie.....
The Dumbo ride....with Amber in the background......
Ariel's under the sea thingy.....
In front of Gaston's Tavern.....
On Prince Charming's Carousel.....
Apparently no trip to Fantasyland is complete without a trip to It's a Small World....I maaged about 5 trips to Tokyo Disneyland without this going on this excruciating ride.....and I now know why!! Stereotypes aplenty. And my favourite was the Chinese (Japanese?) characters with the slanted eyes. Political incorrectness at its finest. Australia was represented with a kangaroo that looked more like a dinosaur and a couple of koalas. Our NZ brethren were represented by a kiwi and a Maori girl. All of the "singers" mouthed the words to the song, which I won't repeat here, and will possibly feature in some of my future nightmares!!
A trip to Space Mountain and then a bit of a restrained shop to round out the day.
Tonight the park closed early at 7 for a Halloween. Party that you apparently needed to book tickets for....no doubt well in advance!! One thing the Americans do VERY well is dressing up for Halloween. It was great fun just to people watch!!!
We found Wally(s) or I guess it is Waldo here.....
Narelle Haines put in an appearance...
We certainly spent the day well and had a great time!!
Tomorrow, New Orleans beckons.....
