Disney World: Day 8, part one- A slower morning

Tuesday my parents would be leaving Disney World. We decided to sleep in a bit and take it slower this morning so we could spend some time with them before they left.

We met up with them in the POP cafeteria for breakfast.

I got one pancake meal with eggs, meat, and fruit and split it up between Abi, Maddy, and myself. 

It was cold enough this morning that we had some hot chocolate in our mugs. 

My dad had the omelet and said it was okay.

My mom got the same meal me and the girls did minus the eggs and got some juice. 

We enjoyed being able to hang out with them for a while before they had to leave.
We went back to our room and got ready for our day.
Maddy played with her stuffed animals for awhile, having a tea party.

My parents stopped by on their way and said goodbye. 

Soon we started out. 

We played Twister for a few minutes. 

Then played in the arcade for a few minutes. 

And then we went out to wait for the bus to Magic Kingdom.

For most of this trip it was really hot and humid.

Then, Monday it rained and cooled down a bit.

But this morning it was COLD!

Really, really cold.

We were so grateful we had brought the girls winter coats, our gloves, and our hats. 

When we went through the gates we noticed that Marie was out by the flagpole!
So we quickly got in line.

After meeting Marie we noticed that Mary Poppins was out close by. 

We went right over and got in her line. 

The Cast member came over and told us we would be the last in line. 

After meeting her we went to our destination for lunch.
Starlight Cafe.

We had never been here before but had heard good things so we thought we would try it out. 

It was crazy busy and we couldn't find anywhere to sit inside. 

That was unfortunate because it was SO cold outside. 

Abi and Maddy both had chicken nuggets with fries. Maddy had yogurt and Abi had a cookie.

Doug made them laugh by wiping their mouths with a napkin in a funny way. 

And then they laughed even harder when he did it to himself too. 

Doug and I both had the grilled chicken sandwiches which were good.
We got the gelato with our meals but it was way too cold out there to eat them.

Day two, part four: Pop Time

We rode our bus back to Pop! and went in the cafeteria to get dinner. 

It was very packed. As it was for this entire trip. 

But we were able to get two booths. Abi sat with my parents in one and Maddy sat with Doug and I in the next one. 

Doug and I both got the grilled chicken sandwich with fries. Doug had a monster drink and a Mickey ice cream bar for dessert. I had a water and a chocolate cake that I split into three sections so I could share it with the girls. (On the regular dining plan the kids get dessert with table service but not usually with counter service unless they are offering cookies or something like that in place of something else) It was good. 

Maddy had a hot dog with fries, grapes, and chocolate milk.

Abi also had the hot dog with fries, grapes, and chocolate milk. They both liked it. 

My parents both got the sesame chicken meal which they said was good. My mom got chocolate milk, my dad got soda, and they both got carrot cake.

After dinner we went back to our room and changed the girls into their swimsuits and took them over to the small wading pool. I love this pool because it's just deep enough that they can still float around but also shallow enough in most places to sit and play. That makes it fun for both of them. 

They had a blast.

As it got later we dried them off and headed back to the room, stopping to take pictures with some of our favorite statues.

They got baths and we gave them each their new nightgowns that we were going to give them the night before and forgot about. 

Posing with their new stuffed animals in their new jammies...

We put on Duffy Bear's bedtime stories and all snuggled into our beds and were soon asleep.
