Mickey Mouse Ears.....




The kids each got to make their very own Mickey Ears...they chose the hat..the ears..and the decals...as well as the color for their name on the back...

A Pirate...and...Donald Duck....





Back in Toontown..the boys wanted to do face painting...the boys enjoyed this...the removal however...not so fun....

Walt Disney World Railroad.....





We spent a lot of time on the train...The Main Street Disney Parade started...so we had to sit and wait for that to end....needless to say...we were a little bored.....once the parade ended...we were on the move...until...we had to stop again and wait for another train to pass...eventually we made it back to Toontown....

Character circle....minus my kids....



Once we left Mickey and Minnie...we saw that character circle...had a whole new set of characters...my kids refused...so...no kids here....

Mickey..and..Minnie!




We got to meet Mickey and Minnie together...in the country fair tent....I won't mention how long the line was...

Today I learned.....


...that I wish I was a goose....

In Church today we learned of the parable of the geese...and what we can learn from them....

1. They fly in a "V" formation....because they are able to fly faster and further...with less wind resistance.

2. The geese in the back "honk" at the geese in the front...to encourage them to keep going.

3. When the head goose gets tired....it rotates back in the wing and another goose flies point.

4. If one goose is sick or wounded...2 other geese will stay with the one...until the goose either dies...or gets better.

5. They protect each other...from those who seek to do harm.

I always enjoy the lessons taught...and the people who teach them...THANKS.

Mickey's Country House....






The kids were done with meeting the characters in character circle..so...we headed to Mickey's place.....

Pinocchio....



Stitch....the nice one...



A funny note...we had gotten off a ride earlier....Stitch's Great Escape...and on this ride...Stich was...well...evil...or more scary maybe..but anyway..no one was real excited to meet him....at first....

King Louie....



We learned that King Louie is unable to sign the autograph book...as his hands are plastic...

It's Rafiki.....



Toontown.....





I love Toontown..it's like entering a completely different world....I have to say though...I was not impressed with this one...Disneyland...is WAY better....

Liberty Square Riverboat....

















This is one of my most favorite rides....a slow boat ride....with lots to see.....
