Travel & Vacation: It’s a Small World, Pirates of the Caribbean, Jungle Cruise at Disney’s Magic Kingdom (Orlando, FL)
Brina and Jake riding on the boat through It’s a Small World
The lines weren’t too long so we were able to get onto several rides, however, we had a couple hiccups with some as well. The kids liked It’s a Small World so much that we did it 2 times. The Pirates of the Caribbean was a little bit of a disappointment because we stood in line for an hour and were 10 people from the front of the line when it broke down so we didn’t get to go on it. It took us another 30 minutes to get back out because we had to wait for all the people behind us leave. The girls did well and had a great attitude despite the long wait time. The Jungle Cruise was a fun boat ride with lots of neat sights along the way. The kids really enjoyed it.
Smiling and soaking in all the sights at It’s a Small World

Travel & Vacation: Tomorrowland Transit, Monsters Laugh Floor, Prince Charming Carrousel at Disney’s Magic Kingdom (Orlando, FL)
Brina relaxing for a few minutes on the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover
The girls never stopped moving all day while at Disney’s Magic Kingdom. The only time we paused was standing in line, on the rides or at the shows. We did have a few bathroom breaks since the girls were drinking about 50 ounces plus throughout the day from their camel backs. The camel backpacks have been a life saver or should I say back saver.
Each person carries their own food and drink. The kids never have to ask for a drink or something to eat they can reach in and get their drink, sandwich, snacks, etc… Of course hand sanitizer is on every backpack to for all the germs we encounter while we are out and about. The had no problem carrying the backpacks and you’ll see them wearing them in almost every picture.
The kids have really enjoyed having the freedom to eat and drink whenever they need to. Usually when we are standing in line for a few minutes I would remind them that it was a good idea to grab a sip and something to drink. Although by mid-week I no longer needed to remind them; they did it on their own. Usually if someone had a snack out it would prompt the rest to get something as well. This helped a huge amount with preventing dehydration and hungry plus we never had to stop and get something to eat we just kept on going from sunup to sun down. We wanted to squeeze every last minute of fun out of our trip.
Karlie soaking in all the cool activities and figuring out where she wants to go next.
Karlie was not sure about the transit when it went into the pitch black, she ducked and said, “What’s going to happen now!?”
One last ride on the Transit after a very long, but super fun day at Magic Kingdom. We were there at opening and until closing. And yes, we are still smiling.

So funny!
The first time we went to the show it froze in the middle of the show so they had to let everyone out and gave us free fast passes for almost any ride at Magic Kingdom. The girls were disappointed, but the fast passes helped us get onto Peter Pan much quicker.
Smiling contently as they ride the Prince Charming Regal Carrousel
They LOVE anything pertaining to horses and this ride was relaxing too with a short wait.
Karlie riding hands free
She cracks me up…it takes skill to ride hands free on a moving horse
That was fun!
Travel & Vacation: Ariel’s Undersea Adventure, Enchanted Tales with Belle, and Astro Orbiter at Disney’s Magic Kingdom (Orlando, FL)
Being silly in line for the Under the Sea ~ Journey of the Little
Mermaid Ride Thankfully the lines were pretty mild most of the morning at Magic Kingdom. We got onto the Ariel’s Little Mermaid ride fairly quickly, however, we did stop to snap a few pictures. We had a great time at Magic Kingdom going from one activity to the next. The girls were troopers and did awesome not only in line, but walking everywhere. It is nice at their age they can do almost everything too!

Entertainment while in line!

It was a bright sunny day, somehow this is the only picture I got of the girls in front of the castle (a quick shot on our way to another ride).
My co-pilot on the Astro Orbiter
Karlie went by herself on the Astro Orbiter. She was very excited to fly!
Karlie giving me the thumbs up. Let’s just say this was not my favorite ride at Magic Kingdom. I get dizzy and nausea on a lot of spinning rides. This one was one of those rides. Thankfully it wasn’t as bad as some rides (like the spinning teacups…oh, boy).
Yes, that is Karlie way above Brina and I. I am not entirely sure we ever left the ground, but Karlie was having a grand time!
