Oh my dog, the bus back to Magic Kingdom that evening? Chock full o' cheerleaders. And the bus driver was hockey stick bent on cramming us all in there so it was standing room only and you got really friendly with your neighbor. Well, not with them so much as with their body parts.
But we're back in the Kingdom of Magicness to it's all good, right.
I'm all happiness and light and Alex grabs this picture for the girl that we babysit for because she loves Minnie.
(We're not the standing in line for characters type.)
So we're right at the little round thingy at the beginning of Main Street that they do character meet and greets at that has a curb and so forth and I see Mary Poppins and something happened, I don't know what it was, but it had something to do with the curb, my being distracted by Mary Poppins, my feet, and my general lack of coordination.
I fell down. Hard. Landed on my knees banging my right one up pretty hard.
Mary Poppins handler came rushing right over to make sure I was okay to which I think I replied, "Peachy! KTHXBAI!" and then told Alex, "People can see me! Get me out of here!"
We laugh about it now. Ah, the day that I fell down and Dick Van Dyke tried to save me.
I power walked as fast as I could to Tomorrowland and stopped at the bathrooms on the right near Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant where I excused myself, closed myself into a stall, allowed myself a 30 second freak out and then pulled myself together.
Alex and I enjoyed the Carousel of Progress next and then rode the Tomorrowland Transit Authority WEDWay PeopleMover 500 Names (which I looove) over and over again until about 45 minutes before Wishes! started.
We hadn't really planned an exact spot to watch the fireworks so we were somewhat aimless, but quickly jumped into Mickey's Star Traders as the rain started to pour down.
We played with a lot of Star Wars related garb and luckily the rain let up after a few minutes so we ended up grabbing a spot to watch the fireworks on the bridge near Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant. We still had awhile to go before the fireworks but we were joined by a college aged CM who was photographing the fireworks and spent the time talking to him and watching the pre-show on the castle itself.
Wishes! was beautiful, of course. Again, I don't have any pictures because we chose to simply relax and enjoy the show. Besides, we weren't in a particularly great spot for pictures and it was still dreary out.
