she, he and i go mad in orlando - day 13:Magic Kingdom
Our last full day . Katy had been desperate for a sleepover, so i woke up having slept in her room at about 8.30. As the weather had been unkind duting the middle of the holiday, we hadn't yet seen a parade, so that was the plan for today. After a morning of packing and laundry, we set off for the Magic Kingdom, arriving at midday.
We enjoyed a slow walk up main street and as Katy was having blister issues, we called into the first aid centre for plasters. Another must do was Aloha Isle for a Dole Whip which was worth the 10 minute queue. We walked back across the hub and into fantasyland, as we had decided one final 'must-do' was Philharmagic, our favourite show of the trip. On the way over we were delighted to see that Cinderella's stepmother and stepsisters were in session. We waited for Katy to meet them for about 15 minutes, they certainly didn't disappoint! As Katy approached, Lady Tremaine looked down her nose at her and said 'oh, look. Another ginger one!' Katy thought it was great. We were in the line for Philharmagic when a group of saxophonists came into the waiting room and played for us. After the show, we went into Pinocchios Village Haus for lunch - I can't remember what we ate apart from Katy, who had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. We went back to the hub for the parade and got a spot on the kerb. it was so hot! The parade was lovely, we all enjoyed it.

I really like this one: Captain Hook tried to shake Katy's hand but she got scared, so he kissed my hand instead, which she found really funny. And that was it. All over. Right on cue the heavens opened. To console ourselves we looked in the shops on the way out and bought a sackful of souvenirs. Then it was time to say goodbye to the magic kingdom. We drove back to the villa and had a swim and a chill before heading out for the evening. First stop was Wallmart for candy and other bits and pieces, then we whizzed up the 27 to Posner park, so I could have a quick look in target, where I nabbed a couple of T-shirts. For dinner, we decided to stick to tradition and went to Mannys for the 5th time. Steaks and salads all round as usual. We headed home and after Katy had gone to bed we tried to finish the packing. The bag we had already bought wasn't going to do, so we did what we could, then went to bed with plans for a return trip to Wallmart in the morning for another bag.

Great photos we just got the tail end of the celabrate parade but like you its was a hot day for us too and i dont think we could have stuck it out for the full parade (90 odd degrees with about the same % of humidity! ) but the few mins we got was great. I have to laugh as i am on a break from packing up so glass of wine and a dibb! ) and i brought out 2 empty cases and have had a job closing them - opps!
Great day thanks for sharing. karen x
