Magic Kingdom

Disney's Magic Kingdom was the third theme park we went during our winter break in Orlando, Florida. We've been to the Magic Kingdom a few times before, but it has undergone some renovations since our last visit. The lines are always pretty long, so it might make sense to splurge for the "fast pass" if you want to take all the rides in one day. We had scheduled a lunch with the Princesses in the big castle, which was definitely the highlight for the girls. The lunch is very popular, and has to be booked weeks, if not months, in advance. But if you have little girls, it's really nice, and worth all the trouble with the advance booking.

It's a process getting into the theme park... the parking areas are vast and there are several modes of transportation you can take from parking to the park entrance.

Mickey Mouse in the house

These mosaics are from the Magic Castle

This is main attraction... The princess lunch took place inside the castle.

Another amazing mosaic depicting the Cinderella story

Cinderella hard at work posing with dining guests! 

The menu was not very adventurous, but the food was decent

You get some little extras like these "wishing stars" for the kids.

The main thing, though, is that you get to pose with all the Disney Princesses.. This is Snow White

Aurora, i.e. Sleeping Beauty

Ariel, i.e. Little Mermaid

Jasmine, from Aladdin

You also get pictures of posing with Cinderella in this folder. 

Desserts were pretty! and yummy. 

One of the new attractions was Ariel's Grove

Dumbo, the classic ride, is still there too. 

Goofy

Donald Duck

Daisy Duck

Minnie Mouse - our favorite!

I have a feeling that it will be quite a while until we set foot in another theme park... Although we had a great time, our next vacation will definitely be something very different. This vacation was very active, so maybe the next one will be just vegging out on a beach - a vegication!
