Rides in The Magic Kingdom!

While we were in Disney, we spent the majority of our time in Fantasyland and Adventureland. These areas have the most rides and shows for Xavier's age group.

We spent the first few hours in Fantasyland. We headed straight "Dumbo the Flying Elephant" because it is ALWAYS the longest wait. Because we arrived at the park right at the opening, we only waited 5 minutes! After getting of the ride, we took advantage of the short line and rode it again :) Xavier loved it. His favorite part was reaching for the "steering wheel" or the knob that lifts or lowers the ride :)

Dumbo!

Round 2!

Here we go!

Looking at daddy!

Next was the Mad Tea Party also known as the teacups :) This is not a favorite of mine. I don't like spinning around and around but I obviously had to do it for Xavier!

My precious boys :)

I can't believe he is a year old...

Love

I also took a video of the ride...enjoy!

Next up was The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. This was a 20 minute wait but it had play areas in line for Bean to keep occupied. This ride, surprisingly, was the only ride that he got a little frightened on. The heffalump scene was dark and while he did not cry, he was definitely not pleased.

After Pooh we rode "It's a Small World." Dustin didn't want to go on this because he remembered it as being boring but I coaxed him into it :) We only had to wait for 5 minutes! While on the dark 10 minute ride, however, Xavier proved Dustin right...he fell asleep! At least we got pictures :)

Watching the ride and listening to the music...

Anddddd he is asleep!

Out like a light!

Sleepy

It's a small world :)

Right across the street was "Peter Pan's Flight." Xavier was still asleep while we waited in line for this ride. We waited for 40 minutes and while that is not bad normally, it was the longest wait we had all day and to top it off, Xavier was asleep so he was like holding dead weight! Dustin and I kept switching off and were very relieved when we reached the front of the line! Of course, Beanie woke up just in time to enjoy the ride :)

Cat Nap!

Waiting...

Here we go!

We beat Captain Hook! Yay!

The last stop in Fantasyland was Mickey's PhilarMagic show. This was a quick 3 minute wait. The show took place in an auditorium that was air conditioned so it was one of our favorites :) It was a 3D show that had water and smell sensations. Xavier was alarmed when the water mist came, but besides that he sat quietly and watched, intrigued. Unfortunately, there were a few other babies who were not as calm. Every once in a while, you would hear a few scream because the music was too loud or the sensory sensations frightened them. Poor babies :(

Ready for some air!

3D glasses!

Next, we headed over to Adventureland. Here we rode Aladdin's Magic Carpet first. It was very hot at this point and this wait, while only 10 minutes was very uncomfortable. When we were up, we decided to push our carpet all the way up so that we would get a nice breeze :)

Red face!

He was excited for this one :)

Here we go!

Weeeeeee!

Baby Face :)

Next, we went on Pirates of the Caribbean. The wait for this was about 15 minutes, which again is like nothing! But it was doubly awesome because the wait for this is indoors so we were able to cool off for a bit :) This boat ride was pretty dark but Beanie didn't seem to mind. He sat in between Dustin and I and enjoyed the ride!

He loves his daddy!

Hey Mama!

Bean's fake smile!haha

The last ride we went on in Adventureland was the Jungle Cruise. This was a 40 minute wait...outside...in the heat. But we made the best of it :) By the time we got on our safari boat, it began to sprinkle. By the time we got off the ride, back to the stroller, and under some shelter, it was POURING.

In the Jungle :)

While we didn't go on any rides in Frontierland, Liberty Square or Tomorrowland, we were able to spend some time in each area.
