So for those of you that didn't know, it is Mrs J's birthday today so cue a noisy rendition of Happy Birthday and It's Your Bear Day... Don't ask...
So what was the plan today I hear you ask? The choice was up to the Birthday Girl. It was a close contest with Animal Kingdom but the final decision had to be.... The Magic Kingdom!
We caught the ferry from the Disney Transportation Center (apologies Mum in advance for the US spelling) and arrived at the MK at around 9am.
First point of call was to pick up a celebration badge for Mrs J. This has provided so much amusement today. Not only have Disney Cast Members been saying Happy Birthday - one even sang to her - but even park visitors got involved. Not sure Mrs J has received so many birthday greetings...
Not sure if it is the Universal effect (Diagonal Alley opening) but MK was extremely quiet this morning but it didn't last...
In terms of what we did...
Flying Carpets next ride
Pirates of the Carribean walked straight on
Thunder Mountain Fast Pass + next ride
Thunder Mountain waited 2 rides
Splash Mountain showing 20 mins
Space Mountain Fast Pass + wait time was 210 minutes
Lunch at Tomorrow...
Waiting for Snow White to open currently broken
Haunted Mansion
After that we decided to head back to the villa for a swim stopping off at a Wallgreens for some essential purchases.
We then showered, got changed and went out for a meal. As it was a birthday treat there was really only one place to go - Bahama Breeze.
Check out our shared starter below - a mountain of onion rings, the batter covered with coconut served with a chilli and pineapple salsa - fantastic...
After eating we visited a Super Target - I know - we really know how to treat Mrs J! You can literally buy almost anything in there.
And finally I got to have a corn dog, it was an interesting experience but is unlikely to be repeated.
Pop back tomorrow to see what we got up to.
