Day Fifteen - Magic Kingdom

Our final full day in Florida

We started the morning by taking a walk around the resort to take some photos around the place before heading for breakfast at the Food Court.

This is a photo of the block we were staying in :

After a good look around and some breakfast we headed over to Magic Kingdom for the final time. It was a lovely warm day today which made a change after the few colder days we had.



Once we got into Magic Kingdom we headed over to Tomorrowland where I got us some fastpasses for Buzz Lightyear. Then we joined the line for the Monsters Inc Laugh Floor. It was very funny and the guy in front of us kept getting picked. We decided to give Stitch’s Great Escape a miss as I had read some poor reports of it.

We all went and did Buzz Lightyear (saving our fastpasses for later on) and then headed over to the Tomorrowland Indy Speedway.

We could have quite happily given this a miss since we both hated it at Disneyland Paris but the boys begged to go on it! It had the longest queue we had the whole holiday and it was getting warm now too. This combined with the engine fumes from the cars didn’t make queuing much fun!

We got to the front eventually and Tommy drove with me as passenger and Kev had Freddie as a driver behind us.

Although it was pretty hellish as Tommy’s driving was so erratic the boys both loved it!



Next we headed over to the Haunted Mansion which was nice to get out of the sun for a bit!



We walked over to Frontierland where we got fastpasses for Big Thunder Mountain and then headed over to go on Pirates of Caribbean.

On our way out the exit we spotted Peter Pan so joined the queue.





We were now getting hungry so headed back to Fantasyland where we had lunch at Pinocchio Village Haus.

While in Fantasyland we went to Mickey’s Philharmagic again as we had enjoyed it so much the last time. We were going to go on Winnie the Pooh but it had broken down.

It was now getting close to parade time so we headed to get a good spot. As we got settled down on the pavement I nipped over to a stand and got some ice creams to use up some more snack credits!

We didn’t have to wait long before the start of the parade:
































After the parade was finished we headed back over to Frontierland so we could ride Splash Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain. We already had our fastpasses for Big Thunder Mountain but didn’t have any for Splash Mountain.

We went to the Cast Member to get a Baby Switch (as Tommy is marginally too small). Kev & Freddie then went to join the normal queue while I hung around with Tommy in the little play area. The Cast Member must have been feeling very kind though as she then gave Kev an extra Baby switch pass so they could go in the fastpass queue instead!

While me & Tommy were waiting for them to come off the ride we joined the queue to meet Goofy.



We met up with Kev & Freddie and swapped over and I went on with Freddie again.

Next it was time to head over to Big Thunder Mountain which we managed to ride quickly using our fastpasses/ baby switch.


It was now time for our reservation at Liberty Tree Tavern at 5.10pm. We headed over there and were seated quickly.

We met Chip, Dale, Pluto, Goofy & Minnie (some of them came round twice) while we were served at the table by our server. The food was lovely and we all enjoyed it.










We headed over the Fantasyland and found that the Winnie the Pooh ride was now working again so we all rode this. We then went on the Mad tea party ride.



We had intended to watch Spectromagic but we were too late to get a good spot on the pavement so we decided to leave it.



We headed back to Tomorrowland where I rode Space Mountain but Kev didn’t bother.

We still had our Buzz Lightyear fastpasses form earlier on so we all had another go on this while waiting for Wishes.



It was now time to get ourselves a spot to wait for the fireworks to start. The boys were getting tired now so we were glad to have their buggies.




Finishing our holiday with Wishes was a brilliant ending.

We could see that it would be a nightmare to keep together to exit the park so we split up and arranged to meet back at the end of Main Street. Tommy fell asleep on the way back up main street.

One last look up Main Street towards the castle where you can see the Christmas Decorations are now up and the Halloween down.



A busy but brilliant last full day of our holiday we headed back to our hotel for the last time. No time or energy to pack now tonight so it will be an early start in the morning to get organised!
