MissE and Me: WDW Day 1: Magic Kingdom

* These posts at Disneyworld will mostly be photos. A note, that I decided to only bring my phone to take photos with as we purchased the My Memory Maker which includes ALL photos taken in the park including ride photos and videos too; this was great because we got some special photos done at Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party.

Day 1 was spent at Magic Kingdom. We rode on Seven Dwarfs Mine Train (new) and all our favourites like Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin and Under the Sea - Journey of The Little Mermaid . Here are some of the highlights:

Today was Mickey & Minnie - themed
(I made my skirt)

Yes, I insisted on coordinated outfits!

NOW it's this is the Happiest Place on Earth

Splash Mountain

There comes a time in every kid's life,
where you are finally tall enough to ride Splash Mountain.
And it was Eden's time!

For lunch we ticked off one of my must-do, Be Our Guest Restaurant. It was okay but it’s mostly for the dining experience. The restaurant is Beast’s castle (Beauty & the Beast). You can dine in the main ballroom, the Rose Gallery, and where we ate, The West Wing. The West Wing storms every few minutes, with the portrait revealing the Beast when lightning strikes.

The grey stuff is delicious!

The enchanted rose

We ran out of time! The park even at reasonably low crowd numbers (me with my crowd aggregators again) was incredibly crowded. We even skipped a few rides that we could ride at Disneyland to tick off what we could.

Hanging around with Rafiki

We were pressed as we had to go back to the hotel, change and then get back into the park as soon as possible for Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party. By the time we were heading out to change, the lines for the rare character meet and greets were already getting insanely long but we still met one! The party itself was a whole lot of fun and definitely worth it, especially if you love Disney and Halloween. Umm, do you not know me?

We donned our Wreck-it-Ralph costumes again for this event.

All the live entertainment on this night was amazing. Seriously, I would have said it was worth it just for this! We started the night with Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular.
