Day 2
Tuesday 16 October
I didn’t sleep well….I never do anywhere we stay, and for some reason I just could not drop off so I was quite happy when it got to 7am and I felt it was acceptable to get up.
Mark knocked the connecting door around 8am and took our Starbucks orders. Lewis went with him but Mark was soon back when he was told that they didn’t accept the Hotel Magic Pass that he’d set up to pay for things during the stay. So I gave him my Revolut card for payment. Very handy having a Starbucks at the hotel and also good that our building was quite close to everything.
Latte’s in hand, we headed off round the river to the parks and reached the entrance just before 8:30.
It was already looking like a nice warm day ahead, the sun was starting to shine and I was comfortable without a jacket.
We showed our Magic Passes and headed through the turnstyles. Macie was through first with her ticket but the rest of us were stopped with our Annual Passes and asked for additional photo ID as it was our first time using them. I don’t recall being told this during the application process or having to do this the last time we had AP’s. I’d left our passports in the hotel. The CM was a bit nippy but he was then called away to another gate and his colleague that took over didn’t see a problem and let us through fine. I’ve since checked when I came home through all the emails/website and cannot see anything about this…..
Anyway, we were in Fantastic decoration on Main St Station as usual.
Loved the Cup Cakes everywhere to celebrate Mickey’s 90th Birthday.
What a shame they need to rope them off though...
Town Square was vibrant and gorgeous with the Halloween decorations. I love the ghosts and the noises they make, it’s such fun
We took our time savouring Main St and letting Macie take it all in. It was busy already and the sun was starting to come out. It was going to be a beautiful day. Pluto was meeting at the boarding house and Donald was in his Maleficent outfit at Casey’s Corner.
We strolled on to the Castle.
Into Fantasyland and Maleficent's Bramble was looking fabulous.
