Today is my 37th birthday and I’m at WDW!!!! We woke up at 5:45am and got in a 3.5 full humidity run. It was such thick humidity that it felt like it was sprinkling! We skipped breakfast at our resort since we had breakfast reservations for Crystal Palace at 9:15am! We were on the bus by 8:30, cutting it a little close, but made it on time! There was a lady trying to load her scooter on the bus, but couldn’t figure out how to navigate it, so the driver had to help. So it took us a good 10 minutes to get her situated. We got to MK at 8:55am and met my sister, niece and brother-in-law for my birthday breakfast with Pooh and friends!!! We only waited a few minutes before we got the text that our table was ready. We saw Eeyore and Tigger after getting our first round of plates. The kids all did their parade around the dining room. We got refills and then met Piglet and Pooh (my favorite!!!)! It was lots of fun and we had delicious food! Our service was a little slow, but not too bad. He brought me out a birthday card signed by Pooh, Piglet, Eeyore and Tigger! Our bellies were full and then we were off for a quick meet with Chelle, Steve and their kiddos! We all had FP to meet talking Mickey. Mickey sang happy birthday to me too!!! We then met outside for a group castle pic. We said our goodbyes to Chelle, Steve and the kiddos. It meant a lot that they came to wish me a happy birthday on a Sunday at MK, in the heat and crowds!! Our friends Corey, Amy and their 3 kiddos drove in from Ft. Meyers for the day to celebrate with us too! We met them over at the People Mover exit and got in line for Buzz as a group. My sister and her family, met Corey and his family in April and got along so well. So it was a big reunion for all of us! We had FP for Space so Amy, Ryan, my sister, niece and myself rode while the two smaller kiddos and two dads waited. Amy’s family was hungry, so they went off to eat while my family rode Little Mermaid. We all had Pirates FP and met up to ride. Then we all did the special Magic Maker princess meet with Belle in Liberty Square. We were all about to attempt a group castle pic, but rain moved in quick and hard. So we took shelter in the shops. I took a birthday call from my folks. The rain started to slow, so my sister and her family needed to head out because my niece starts middle school the next day. We said goodbye to them.
We went to Country Bear to wait for the rain to fully stop and enjoyed the show with Amy and her family. We then went to Splash with a 40 minute wait. It was fun to catch up and chit chat some more. We took the train to Fantasyland. Used our Barnstormer FP. We grabbed a snack of fudge in the circus tent. Then to the Laugh Floor with our FP. We took the train to the front of the park. We took a group pic with their family before having to say goodbye. They had a few hour drive home and the kids have school tomorrow. It was so great to see them for the day!
Ryan and I went to Starbucks to get some iced tea to have with our dinner. We got birthday castle pics with our SB drinks! So fun! We grabbed food at Columbia Harbour House! The CMs behind the counter sand me happy birthday and gave me chocolate cake! So fun! We sat upstairs and watched people walk around Fantasyland. Such a relaxing dinner. We then went to Haunted with a 20 minute wait. We got a spot in Liberty Square to watch the Main Street Electrical parade for the last time before it left. There were a lot of rude people that came at the last minute by us. They kept pushing their kids into us and stepping on us. We asked them several times, very nicely, to be careful where they were stepping. But they didn’t care. So sad to have rude guests. We still enjoyed our parade! Then off to Main Street to watch Wishes! Such a great fireworks show! After Wishes we used our Peter Pan FP with a 15 minute wait. We then grabbed a citrus swirl, yum! Then a Dole Whip! We then took some night castle pics and then walked through Main Street Shops. We were at the bus stop at 11:25pm, park closed at midnight but we just couldn’t make it any longer. We were dropped off at 11:45pm and lights out at 12:20am. What an amazing birthday!!!!!!
