Where else would we help celebrate Gavin's birthday than at Disney? It seemed only natural for our family at this point. We asked which rides Gavin wanted to ride specifically for his birthday and he named almost all the rides at every park. We decided on Magic Kingdom in the morning and then Hollywood Studios in the afternoon.
Not the best shot of the entrance, but I was not waiting for the space to clear and we had not got a shot of the entrance yet.
We finally waited in line to ride Astro Orbiter.
Too bad we did not have fun.
We lucked out with the front row on Small World again.
Gavin cannot wait to drive a real car when he is 'bigger.'
In the afternoon, we park hopped over to Hollywood Studios. The new Star Tours opened last weekend and Fantasmic! was scheduled that night, both attractions we had not seen.
Star Tours turned out to be a blast (pun intended) with super short lines. Then for dinner, we headed to the Sci-Fi Diner-In Theater. It was too hard to snap a picture in there, but head to the site to get an idea. It was great having the boys entertained by the giant 'drive-in' screen while waiting for our food. After dinner, we discovered where the Mickey character spot was in the park. The pictures are sadly not the greatest but the memory was preserved.
Logan was pretty exhausted at this point and lost it a second after this shot when we saw Mickey. The crowd watching 'awed' in unison beautifully.
Fantasmic! was great but pretty late for our kidlets (9:00).
Then like this once in the car with his pajamas on heading for home.
And here is our oldest with his birthday present, the Peter Pan character set, clutched in his gripped never to be let go. After the Pirates ride at Magic Kingdom, Gavin asked if he could have a pirate sword. We told him to slowly look around the store and pick one thing he wanted to take home. Notice the treasure map a.k.a. park map too.
Another beautiful day!
