Disney does early park days for resort guests. This means any person staying at a Disney hotel can get in an hour early to certain parks. So after getting to bed about 1:30 AM, we were up at 6:00AM getting ready to head into the Magic Kingdom (definitely the shortest night the kids had ever had).


After Connor and I spent the first hour running around and riding the few rides that Kale and Jen (who is pregnant) could not ride--like Space Mountain...we took off for Fantasy Land, which has a lot of rides based on Disney classics...such as Flying Dumbo. This ride is one of the oldest rides in the park, and while it only last 30 seconds, the 1/2 hr. wait was worth it to ride a Disney icon (and the kids really liked it as well).



















So after Dumbo, Peter Pan...








...Winnie the Pooh, Its a Small World After All, and other attractions...we were ready for lunch. So we made are way back down Main Street...





...to Tony's Italian Eatery (supposed to be Tony's from Lady and the Tramp):








I tried to get them to string a piece of spaghetti between their mouths but they refused...


And then after Kale (who must have still be hungry) captured and ate one of these ducks...











which made her happy enough to kiss her brother...













which her brother liked...




But we were all getting tired. So based on the advice of Disney travel books et al. we went back to the resort for an afternoon nap (since we would be at Disney until midnight).




It was quite task getting everyone to sleep but eventually Kale fell asleep on me...and Connor climbed under the bed and slept there.
