A Magical Day in the Magic Kingdom

Right after breakfast we went back to Main Street, where we shopped, searching for an autograph book for me. I found a really cute Tinkerbell one that you can put photos in, right next to the autograph. Anyway, I saw Cruella DeVille, so I got in line while Nicky sat on a nearby bench, waiting to take my picture. After she signed my book, I turned her to face Nicky for the picture. Then she said, in all her snottiness, "Really! You're sitting all the way over there on a bench? Really? Hmph!" Nicky just smiled, nodded a big yes, and took the picture. We both got a big kick out of that. We thought she was funny and laughed about it all day.


After Main Street, went to Space Mountain, where there was a huge line, so we got a fast pass for later and went on Buzz Lightyear instead. We criss-crossed through the park at least 3 times that day, stopping to shop everywhere, find hidden Mickeys, and get character autographs.

Twenty years ago, on our honeymoon, I took this exact picture of Nicky under this sign. We looked up the old picture and compared it to he new one and, boy, has Nicky gotten cuter! lol

While we were walking, we saw Rafiki (from the Lion King) and Meeko (from Pocahontas) and we stopped. I planned to have Nicky take a picture of me, but when Rafiki saw my button, he got very excited and asked (with hands only, of course, how many years. One? Two? How many? When I said 20, he got very excited and had his "handler" take the camera and get a picture of us both with him. It was funny, and he even wrote "Happy Anniversary" in my book.

We stopped for a snack break and I took this picture of us.

Of course, the highlight of our day was our dinner at Cinderella's Castle. When we first went in, we had a "private audience" with Cinderella. We took pictures and got her autograph, then went up the tower stairs to dinner.

We had a table for two overlooking Cinderella's Carousel. It was beautiful. On the table, there was Cinderella's Castle confetti. I made Nicky put it in his pocket so I could save it for my scrapbook. lol

They gave us one of the pictures with Cinderella in a pretty folder, a wand (for me) and a sword (for Nicky), a certificate signed by Mickey, Minnie, & Tinkerbell, and a pair of crystal wine glasses. They are beautiful. See?


We really were treated like royalty and it was wonderful. :-) After dinner, we walked around a little more and watched the fireworks. Finally, we headed back to our hotel after a very special day.
