Florida Vacation: Day 2 - A Royal Invitation

If you need a guide, this is the best. We're using it for our next trip:


The morning after our arrival, we had a royal invitation to have breakfast with princesses at the Disney castle. We eagerly boarded the Disney Shuttle to the Magic Kingdom park to be at the castle for 8:30am. Disney World is huge, but its highway system is so great it put Montreal's to shame. Their shuttle system is even better. We made it to the park around 8:10am. From the entrance there's a main street that brings us to the castle.



Breakfast was great, we were welcomed by Cinderella, and got to meet Aurora (Sabrina's favorite), Snow White, Ariel and Belle.

Belle, the kids, and no Beast.

After breakfast it was time to enjoy the park and its attractions. It is really well designed, almost magical. We had a good times on rides like "It's a small world", "Dumbo", "Pirates of the Caribbeans", "Jungle Cruise" and "Liberty Square Riverboat". Though it can be quite complicated to eat out with Sabrina's peanut allergies, we found a great place at Tony's Restaurant (Lady and the Tramp).




We got back to the hotel for a bit of swimming at the hotel (the pool is twice as big as Mom's land). Fantastic!



After a bit of a rest we went back to the Magic Kingdom to see the night parade "Summer Nightastic" and the fireworks at the castle. Mathieu fell asleep on the way to the park, and woke up on the way back. He did not even wake up at the fireworks.
