After the Disney Wine and Dine Half Marathon expo, we were scrambling to make it our reservation window at the Magic Kingdom. Buses had been running fairly smoothly so we hopped on a bus to Caribbean Beach Resort and dropped our stuff off in the room. We then re-boarded another bus to make our way to Magic Kingdom. With a bit of hustle we were able to make it in time for our reservation for lunch at Be Our Guest.

Wow! Just wow inside and out!

Try the grey stuff it’s delicious… no really delicious!

After our amazing lunch (I had the quiche!), we made our way over to Buzz Lighyear’s Space Ranger Spin. Which we all took way too seriously. Like waaaay tooooo seriously.

Did someone say game faces?!? Mr & Mrs. RockymtnPearls are above.

the whole gang. yes we are wearing mickey ears. My hubby and I are on the left and Mr. and Mrs. RockyMtnPearls are on the right.

During our fun-filled day we rode Voyage of the Little Mermaid, the Haunted Mansion, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, It’s a Small World, Jungle Cruise, Seven Dwarves Mine Train, and munched on yummy snacks all over the park. Our group separated briefly because Space Mountain is not my scene… but we joined up shortly there after.

We ate a fantastic dinner at Liberty Tree Tavern. If you have the chance go, it’s the best parts of Thanksgiving dinner in a cute “Americana” environment. #YUM. After dinner we were all in a food coma and meandered more around the park.

Elsa turned the Castle into ice!! (Also Frozen was EVERYWHERE!)

We also had tickets for Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, which thankfully turned out to be a great time! We practically walked on rides, enjoyed our hot chocolate, meandered through the shops, and enjoyed the snow fall on Main Street.

It’s beginning to look a lot like …. Christmas!

Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Parade

We watched the parade and fireworks shows! Overall it was a fantastic day and we were all exhausted. Our plan was to tire ourselves out on Friday and sleep late Saturday for the race!

Are you a big Disney fan? What’s the one ride you have to go on? Do you enjoy Fireworks shows? How to prepare the night before an evening race?
