Disney - Magic Kingdom

Our first park was the Magic Kingdom.  I mentioned in an earlier post that Dylan had been seeing the castle and the beginning of Disney movies and saying "disney world". I know he had no idea what to expect and I wish that he could really communicate what he thought of the park.  He said he had fun and he liked it, but other than that, I don't know what he thought.  To our surprise, we practically did everything in one day that we wanted to do.  Of course there were a few things we didn't get to do as the park closed at 7pm for the not so scary halloween party and we didn't buy tickets to stay.  

We started off the day with Peter Pan as that ride always seems to have a long wait later in the day.  I had never been on the ride and it was a lot darker than I expected.  Most of the rides, Dylan found himself crying and saying he wanted off, even on it's a small world.

After a while, he got the hang of it.  Some of the rides were probably a bad idea, but we forged on.  He really enjoyed the Dumbo ride, the carousel, Buzz Lightyear's ride and I think his favorite was the Jungle Cruise.  The first character he got to meet, no one other than Mickey.  We met him after touring his house and it was a nice, short wait in air conditioning with a cartoon.  Dylan ran right up to him and had no problem with him

Next we saw, Pirate Goofy after getting off the Pirates of the Caribbean ride.  ( a ride that was probably not suitable for Dylan after all).  I think Goofy was one of his favorite characters.

He even tried pulling the sword out of the stone.

One ride that I think he would have enjoyed but fell asleep waiting in line for was the race cars.  I really wanted to take him back and ride it again as it was his friend Joseph's favorite ride at Disney. Oh well.

Time to rest up Animal Kingdom awaits us tomorrow.
