Magic Kingdom and Epcot

I forgot to take my camera Wednesday night after all, so there are no pictures of the Trail's End restaurant or the hayride.  It was our third time, and it was great fun.  There are probably similar pictures from last year on this blog somewhere!

Thursday after play rehearsal we spent about five hours at the Magic Kingdom.  It was great because we hadn't been there in so long.  We probably have not been there since early last summer because of our big trip. We had fast passes for three things, saw the parade and two other live shows, and got on three other attractions easily.  What a wonderful day!  I do have some pictures here of that.

Today we are having lunch at the Food and Wine Festival.  Since it's Shabbat, we have put money on gift cards in advance.  It's also our third time, so we can get our free Festival glasses today.  Around 2:30 we will meet up with our friends Barbara and Al, whom we have not seen in many months either.  We are taking them up to see the new DVC Member Lounge in Journey into Imagination.  Then we have Soarin' Fast Passes and a dinner reservation at the Coral Reef restaurant in the Living Seas pavilion.  I see another great day coming!

Weight is up another pound, but I'm not surprised.  I ate way too much the last three days.  Today does not seem to be different what with eating lunch and dinner out.  Tomorrow should be better.

Our timing for the castle show was perfect.  It started just as we got up there.  We wanted to see the Alligator from The Princess and the Frog back in the show.  He had been replaced with Goofy for awhile.

Next we strolled into Liberty Square and our perfect timing held up again.  The new live Muppet Show was just starting.

Heading to Peter Pan for our first Fast Pass, we ran into our synagogue friend Leslie, who is also a long time cast member in Fantasyland.

Mickey's Philharmonic has this cool poster in the lobby.

Hall of Presidents is always a favorite.  

Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean were our other two Fast Passes.  We also went to Country Bear Jamboree and Tiki Room.  Mark used the shooting gallery, which was free for some reason, and we caught the afternoon parade.

After the park, we went to shop at the Winn Dixie and saw this awesome Coke display!
