We were up bright and early on day 2 because we had an appointment at Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique! Boy was this an experience :) The Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique is nestled inside the castle and hidden behind 2 wooden doors. A little mysterious :)
This picture shows the chaos when this place first opens up for the day. There were little & big girls everywhere! The ladies behind the counter are the "Fairy Godmothers".
Boys are welcome at the boutique too! Sir Eli received the royal treatment as a young knight.
Check out the spray shield...hilarious! I think I had one of these back in middle school. This was by far a magical experience.
Ta-da! My favorite picture from the whole trip...so sweet!
We quickly headed over to Adventureland to check out the Swiss Family Robinson tree house.
Here's a close up of the cool glitter that is part of being a knight. They also painted a set of mickey ears on the back of his head.
Group shot! We are in the front row of this show & notice that no one is behind us...it was seriously not crowded.
Aladdin's Magic Carpets!
Another favorite of Eli's was Tom Sawyer's Island. He was all over that place! While we were waiting for the ferry boat, the kids were climbing on the nearby rocks.
Cinderella's Castle! This place is truly magical. A huge construction project is going on right now at Magic Kingdom. Toon Town is gone and a new plan is being constructed. Everything was covered so we couldn't get a good picture of what was really going on.
Man behind the wheel! Eli & I had a blast on these cars. He couldn't quite reach the gas pedal so I kept it pushed to the floor while he steered us around.
Such concentration.
Scott & Emery were in the car ahead of us. She didn't want to drive so Scott did.
My 2nd favorite picture of the trip...so beautiful!
Remember that monkey Eli bought at Animal Kingdom? We came back to our room on day 2 and he couldn't find it anywhere. We all searched high and low with no luck. All of a sudden Emery opens the blinds and there it was! We all ran outside to check out what the maid had done.
That night the kids wanted to go back to Animal Kingdom to eat and check out the dinosaur area. We showed up at the dinosaur dig and jumped right in. Well, Miss Emery wasn't having the tiny rocks that are in the dig. The sign said, "Keep your shoes on!" but she just couldn't do it...those rocks were.in.her.shoes! I was lucky enough to capture her running to me in the midst of all of this. Too funny!
Here we are going to it. We had a ball :)
Eli was right at home digging around.
I'm not sure what we were doing here. I think I may have been telling the kids about how long the tail really was and that we needed to dig a little further.
This is a terrible picture of us but the Tree of Life at night is just BEAUTIFUL!
A little "Goofin" around at the gift shop before we headed to Epcot for the fireworks.
More of days 3 & 4 coming soon!
