Last Day

Big Sister woke up this morning reminding us that we only had 1 more day at Disney!  Unfortunately, before that Little Bud woke up crying VERY early, and nothing seemed to calm him down!  Poor little guy is teething again :(  He finally went back to sleep about an hour before we had planned to head out for our last day at the Magic Kingdom.  So, Big Sister was the only one who was bright eyed and bushy tailed today; the rest of us were quite tired this morning.

Our boat docked just in time to catch the Welcome Show, and then we headed straight back to Fantasyland.  Our first stop was Enchanted Tales with Belle, since we had only been through once last week.  The wait time was listed at 20 minutes (the least we'd seen it all week!), but we ended up spending about 45 minutes in line (someone up ahead of us was holding a spot for 15 other people who swooped in at the last minute and the attraction attendants weren't very fare in how they integrated the regular and FastPass lines -and you can't get regular FastPasses for the attraction, only those using the trial Magic Wristbands could get FastPasses).  Yuck!  BUT, Big Sister loved it!  It really is a great attraction.  She played the part of Phillipe (Belle's father's horse), this time.  Little Bud even seemed to enjoy himself too (despite being tired/teething).

After that we went Under the Sea with Ariel one last time.  Big Sister told us it's her favorite (along with the Star Tours ride).  On our way over to Splash Mountain, we stopped by to meet Captain Hook.  John and I took turns riding Splash Mountain with Big Sister.  It always surprises me how she doesn't even hesitate to ride anything, she just gets in line and hops on with a smile!  She of course played her little, "It's not scary, there's no big drop off" game with me again ;). She kept it up until we were going up the last hill, when she turned to me, flashed a big smile and said, "It IS a big drop off!!"

Big Sister requested that we ride the People Mover again, so we did.  Little Bud really likes that ride too, since he can sit beside John like a big boy!  We hadn't ridden the train around the park yet, so we made the loop before we changed the kids into swim suites and let them splash around at the Casey Jr. Splash Station.  

After that, we waved goodbye and loaded up for one last boat ride back to the Fort Wilderness campground.  We did a little pre-packing before heading to the pool for a bit.  John took Big Sister to the big pool so that she could go down the water slide a few times, while Little Bud and I headed straight to the kids play area.  John and Big Sister joined us for a while, then we rode the bikes back to the campsite where we finished packing up and started our journey home!  

We went back and forth about leaving tonight, instead of in the morning, and in the end, the idea if dividing up the 9+ hour drive won out.  Both littles were fast asleep in their car seats before we even made it off Disney property :)

A few days ago a Disney Cast Member gave these to Big Sister.  She was sad to leave them behind, so John took a picture of her with them so she will always remember them.  He's such a sweet Daddy!!

Little Bud was asleep before we even checked out!
