Magic Kingdom

So my last day in Disney world (well at least in the parks) we went to Magic Kingdom. This is one of my favorite parks of all. I got to do alot of things that i've never done before like.... ride the magic carpets of Aladdin...Mickey's Philharmagic (loved this one)...meet some of the Disney Princesses...ride Pirates of the Carribbean....Buzzlightyear's Space Commander ride... eat at Tony's ( the resturant's theme is Lady and the Tramp. And plus i got to do the teacups and the other rides that i can't remember right now.

Ready to hit the Magic Kingdom...

Epcot

So onto my day at Epcot. Well after we got through the gate, one of the workers said someone was on the phone for me....it was Goofy singing happy birthday. He noticed my big happy birthday button...it was great having my bday for a whole week instead of just one day. We did ALOT at Epcot so it was a very long but fun filled day. We went on the Mission Space ride (which of course i went in the chicken line), there was no way i was going to do the real thing and feel the G(gravity) forces. The chicken verison was still intense and i actually got a bit scared during part of it. We also went on "Soarin", it's a ride that makes you feel like you're flying over california. At one part of the ride you can even smell the orange blossoms. It's one of my new favorites at Epcot. My mom and I took a crash course on how to drive a segway. If you look to the left in the second picture you will my mom getting on her segway.I've always wanted to ride one and i finally had the chance so i couldn't pass this up. It was soo much fun. I never realized how sensitive they are, you barely have to move for the segway to move. Just the littlest amount of pressure and you're off. I think it would be so cool to have one around but they're alot of money. One of my favorite parts of epcot is where they have the Seas with Nemo and friends. It's soo cool how they have all the characters around...and the segalls who keep saying "Mine..Mine..Mine". I LOVED Turtle Talk with Crush!! So after we went through everything in the front of Epcot, we headed for the World Showcase. I love walking through all the different countries. And that month they were having " the food and wine festival". So you could try different foods from all these different places. There was ALOt to chose from, i waited till we were in Italy and got some Ziti and Tiramissu....oh was it yummy. Then we went to the French Bakery and got pasteries which were also very yummy. And then we had to find our spots for the "Illummnations Fireworks". Here's a video....my camera doesn't record the sound..so it just the fireworks.

Hollywood Studios...my vacation continues

So the day after my bday we went to spent most of the day in Hollywood Studios. But before we went there we went back to Animal Kingdom, to see the Finding Nemo Musical. I highly recommend seeing this if you're there and never have seen it cause it is incredible. If you love Nemo you'll love it.

This day was the first day i got to wear my "Happy Birthday" pin. If it's your bday you can get this big pin with your name on it....and everyone wishes you happy bday or sometimes sings happy bday to you. I wore mine the whole week. So when we went into Animal Kingdom, one of the workers at the gate sang happy bday to me....the funny thing was he couldn't sing. He sounded like Scuttle from the Little Mermaid. He made us laugh so hard. And later when we were in Hollywood studios, another worker, saw me and bowed...and said Happy Birthday princess. And later on we saw him again, and he bowed. It was a lot of fun getting all that attention.

So at hollywood studios, we walked around some more, did the Muppets 3d ride, the star tours (which my mom really liked), saw the Narnia thing, which i was kinda disappointed with. I think they need to turn it into some kind of ride or something. I can't remember what else we did at the moment. But here are some pictures from that day.....

Downtown Disney

So our first real day out..my mom and i went to Downtown Disney and walked around in the chilly rain. We actually went to the House of Blues for their Gospel Brunch...that was definately an experience. They had so much amazing good food, and then after we eat for awhile it was time to have church...gospel style. After the brunch we walked around some more. And then took a bus to the Grand Floridian (which is like the most amazing hotel at disney) and looked around. And since we were so tired from all the walking, we rode the monorail for awhile. Then went back to Downtown disney for dinner at rain forest cafe.

Turning 30 in Disney

So I'm finally getting around to posting some of my pics from my disney trip. I think this was the best birthday EVER and i will never forget it. We went to all of the parks. I spent my birthday in Animal Kingdom, which is now my new favorite park, besides Magic Kingdom. There was so much to see there.....we saw the lion king show, did the bugs life ride, went down the rapids and got completely soaked, went on safari...and also did ALOT of walking. then that evening we went to the beach club for my bday dinner and afterwards walked around the boardwalk. It was a great day!! So here are pics from animal kingdom.....

Here's my mom and me..

This was one of the singers from The Festival of the Lion King show..which was really awesome!!
