The Magic Kingdom


Day: 15

Today, we visited the Magic Kingdom at Disney World. This place is huge! It was a 20 minute ride on the bus from the resort hotel to the park. This park is fashioned after Disneyland. There are many similarities, but it's very different. We decided we like the cues here better than the ones in California (with the exception of Thunder Mt.), but in general, the rides at Disneyland are better. There are 3 more parks to see.
The boys were perfect today. I thought they might be a little grumpy being so tired, but they had a blast. I didn't realize that Parker had just watched Peter Pan and hates Captain Hook. We all went on the Peter Pan ride and Parker rode with me. For hours afterward, he asked me why I made him go on that ride with Captain Hook! He told me that Captain Hook is mean, so he wants to kick him and punch him until he's dead (he really doesn't like him). I told Matthew & Jolene, I hope we don't see a Hook character in the park, or Parker may do great physical harm to him.
We went on the Transit Authority (People Mover) which Disneyland did away with years ago, and it was a nice little ride.
It is odd not having the Matterhorn in the center of the park. It feels kind of empty.
Looking forward to more parks, and more fun.
We'll keep you posted.

I sure hope that Hook does not make an appearence for his own sake. What a little cutie Parker is, that must have been so funny!
