DISNEY WORLD; The Final Day

On Wednesday we were headed back to Magic Kingdom for the day but first to The Grand Floridian for a character breakfast at 900 Park Fare. The Grand Floridian is amazing. It's so beautiful and we were able to take the monorail to get there which was fun.

Ella was having a rough start to the day. I stopped in the gift shop and bought more Motrin (left ours in the room) in hopes that it would give her ears some relief, my poor baby.
The characters at the breakfast were not as familiar to Lilly but she still had a blast and it gives us something to read about now that we're home! Mary Poppins stopped by our table...
Hey Tigger, we see you everywhere!
Alice tried to cozy up to Ella. Ella doesn't like you Alice!
Lilly liked her though.
Ok, seriously, The Mad Hatter was a complete freak! He was screaming and scary. But not much scares Lilly.

Pooh again!
After breakfast we went to The Magic Kingdom for our final full day. It was very relaxing and fun. We toured Minnie Mouse's house. Minnie wasn't home.
The girls spent time playing in a couple different playgrounds. They loved it. Lilly kept asking to go back and Ella loved the freedom. It was a chilly day (hence the hat) though the sun was shining and it warmed up. I was being a bit overprotective of Ella's ears.


Everybody likes a carousel ride!
I didn't take as many pictures because we rode many rides as a family on our final day and took another boat ride. We filled our day and enjoyed every minute of it.

We ended our final day with a character dinner at The Crystal Palace. I really loved the meal and it was in a beautiful dining room. Here the girls are waiting for them to call our name. Lilly befriended a duck. Ella says, "Duck duck duck!!"

My personal Disney travel guide (thanks Christine!) informed me that this is the only place you'll see Piglet in the parks. It was indeed our only sighting and Lilly and Ella were both really excited! There were other characters there but we already had pictures with them so Lilly just enjoyed hugging them. Ella kept pointing to Piglet. It was cute.
Watching Piglet in her ears...
On Thursday morning we took our time getting up and out. Lilly and I had breakfast together at the hotel food court while Ella slept in. Then we packed up, took the kids to the resort playground for an hour, and were picked up by Magical Express to be taken to the airport to return home. This was the final picture I snapped...
We had an awesome vacation. I loved our family time and am so happy that we went. I do miss Disney as it was sad leaving on the last day! I hope Lilly will remember our trip and we'll surely return one day with our whole brood.
