Trip number 12 - Disney World and Cape Coral! Day 3 Magic Kingdom and Sanaa

Tues 8th

Today we were headed to the Magic Kingdom, we arrived at around 10 am and after a leisurely wander into the park we decided to get an early lunch at Pecos Bills. 

Shortly after we headed across to Fantasyland to ride the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train using our first fast pass. 



We then did a couple of our favourites in Tomorrowland - the people mover and the Carousel of Progress before riding Space Mountain with our second fast pass.



The ride was bumpy as normal and the slightly amazing part is that Rob caught a pair of sunglasses whilst on the ride. One of the other people on the ride managed to lose them along the way and somehow he caught them in the dark!

Our third fast pass was another favourite - Splash Mountain! 



After we headed to a kiosk to see what fast passes were available and selected Buzz Lightyear as our next choice. Rob continued the pattern of getting a much higher score than I did!



We then took a quick spin on the Tomorrowland Speedway which had a really short wait time. 



We also got 2 more fast passes this afternoon which were for The Haunted Mansion and Jungle Cruise. 

After that we headed back to the room to have a quick rest and get ready for dinner.

Tonight we were going back to Sanaa - which you may notice we tend to visit on each trip….sometimes more than once! 

Dinner was great as always, we had the bread service to start and then we both had butter chicken and spicy lamb with different rice choices. For dessert Rob had the trio and I had the chocolate mousse…which is delicious!









After dinner we headed back to the Magic Kingdom for Extra Magic Hours. We arrived just as Wishes was ending which was a shame but we would see them another night.

We started off with another ride on the speedway - and bizarrely we actually waited longer this evening than we had during the day!

Up next we decided to ride Peter Pan as I hadn’t seen the new standby line and normally the wait is just too long. The posted wait was still something like 40 minutes but from memory I think we waited about 15 which wasn’t bad and the queue is actually not too bad now that they have added more theming.

As we were in the area we decided to take the opportunity to ride It’s a small world which I love and Rob does not like! 

Final ride of the night was Big Thunder Mountain, which is not actually one of my favourites but it is more fun in the dark!

We took a leisurely walk out of the park and back to the room.
