Part of Your World - Disney World, that is!

After a restful night in the hotel, we headed out to the Magic Kingdom for the day. Marina dressed as Ariel today. Christina wore her Rapunzel costume and Leisa was Sleeping Beauty. It was exciting to be back at Disney World!

We met Mary Poppins on the way in. Then we went over to Fantasyland where we took advantage of short lines. The girls all wanted to sit together. We rode nearly every ride in Fantasyland - including Winnie the Pooh, Peter Pan, It's a Small World and Dumbo. At that point, it was time to say goodbye to Linda, Christina and Leisa. They were off to meet their grandmother while Marina and I went off to have lunch.

We had reservations for lunch at Cinderella's Castle - exactly one year after our first visit there. We had a lovely meal and got to meet Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Ariel and Belle.

After lunch, we headed over to Adventureland. We rode the Magic Carpets of Aladdin and the Jungle Cruise. Marina met with Ariel and Prince Eric there as well. We watched the Celebrate A Dream Come True parade, where Ariel excited waved at Marina, and the Dream Along With Mickey castle show. We also met with Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen.

After that, we walked over to Tomorrowland. We rode the Tomorrowland Motor Speedway, the Buzz Lightyear ride and saw the Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor show. During the show, Marty Wizowski had a few princess jokes. He asked for a kid to help him. Suddenly, Marina was on the screen. He asked her name and called her "Princess Marina." She loved doing that!

We watched the Main Street Electrical Parade before going into the Main Street Theater to meet Mickey and Minnie Mouse as well as three princesses - Sleeping Beauty, Belle and Cinderella. Marina never gets tired of talking with princesses. We don't get much of an opportunity at home, so we're doing that while we can.

Our day ended with the Wishes fireworks show. I'm amazed at how long we spent at the park today. But it was fun!
