Sharing Disney One Bite at a Time

Magic Kingdom
15 hours at Magic Kingdom makes a little girl more tired than I have ever seen her.  She walked into the house, went to the bathroom, and fell across the bed fully dressed.  She didn't want to wake up this am either.  But now we are getting ready to go again.  Today's agenda, Epcot with Stephen Curtis Chapman.  I am excited about that.

15 hours and hundreds of pictures also ran my camera battery down, so no pics today either.  I will add them later.

Magic Kingdom was very magical.  The three princesses went in for a makeover.  Princess Ciara dressed like tinkerbell and got magical light up wings.  She got a beautiful hair-do with pixie dust all over.  She got make up and FAKE NAILS her very favorite thing.  She looked amazing.  She even got the princess shoes.  Then we rode Dumbo, Cinderella's Carousel, and saw Mickey's PhillaMagic.  It was one of the best shows yet.  It is 3D and you wear glasses and the objects on the screen pop out at you.  When the balloons burst, it blows air in your face.  It also rained on us inside the theatre!  All part of the magic of Disney.  Then the girls went to Cinderella's Royal Table.  We had beautiful appetizers, main courses, and deserts.  The girls had their pic taken with Cinderella, Beauty, Princess Aurora, Jasmine,  and Mary Poppins.  When Ciara saw Princess Aurora, the look on her face was as if she were seeing the most amazing thing in the world - or the same look as when she met Colton Swan.  We saw the Disney Christmas Parade, rode the teacups, train, saw Minnie's house, rode the Tommorrowland Transit, and a Buzz Lightyear ride, where I banged my knee and thought I would never walk again.  I am fine today, Thank You Jesus.  We also saw a Monster's Inc. show.  

We are consulting several books written on the subject of Disney vacationing, so I have decided to write one myself.  Sharing Disney One Bite at  a Time  On the way to Florida, one of the kids in the van wanted an apple.  So then another did also.  I told them to share, knowing that usually Ciara only eats a couple of bites.  So Shari told everyone in the adult van that we had to share food in the kid van and teased me about being so frugal.  So that has been our joke for the week.  Yesterday, four people shared a popsicle, I found an apple in my bag with only one bite out of it, three of us shared nuts, and three of us shared popcorn and a coke while they were announcing to refrain from eating and drinking.  So do you keep chewing what is in your mouth, or let it sit there for the rest of the ride????  This morning, there was only 1 banana left for breakfast.  Anybody want to guess how many people shared it????
