The Robinsons: Day 7- Our Last Day at Magic Kingdom

When we found out that we were going to Disney World I knew that there were 2 places I wanted to eat, the Coral Reef Cafe and Cinderellas Royal Table inside Cinderella Castle. I was able to secure reservations for the Coral Reef Cafe but not the Castle. The dining reservation cast member told me that my best bet at getting in was to call everyday we were there and see if there had been any cancellations. So we did. We called everyday and nothing. Finally on our last night there we got lucky. They'd had a cancellation for 8:30 the next morning! Yes! There was a problem however. When you make reservations at the Castle it is prepay only and we had left our Visa's in our hotel room because when you are in the park you only need your "key to the world" which pays for everything. Now normally this wouldn't be a problem because we have our Visa numbers memorized but just before we left for the trip we were notified by our bank that our information had been stolen and they issued us a new account with new cards and new numbers (that we still hadn't memorized). There was also one other small problem. We weren't at our hotel. We were standing in line for the shuttle back to the hotel though so we asked the cast member we were on the phone with if she could hang on while we took the 10 minute shuttle ride back. We wanted these reservations bad! She agreed and hung on the line. For some reason however our bus driver went a different way back to the hotel and instead of being the first stop we were the very last stop! Ugggg! After 35 minutes we were finally back at our hotel and were able to secure the reservation. Hooray! What a sweet lady for waiting on the line for that long for us.

We were up bright and early (6 am which was 4 am UT time) to make sure we were on time to our breakfast reservation. We had to get up that early to get ready but it was also our last day at Disney World so we had to get packed up, checked-out of the hotel and checked-in to the airline. It was hectic but worth it to be able to eat in the castle!

When you walk in the castle you are greeted by non other than Cinderella herself.

Sitting at our royal table.

The ceiling of the castle. Can you see the Hidden Mickeys? :)

As part of the breakfast package you get to meet the Princesses, like I said before the princesses are way more accessible than at Disneyland.

The kids had to sit on the outside of the table so the princesses could get to them more easily. Unfortunately it made taking good pictures more difficult because the window was behind them.

In between the princesses they take a break to give the girls a wand and the boys a sword and a wishing star. When they are all passed out they do a little rhyme and make the kids close their eyes and make a wish. As you can see Harris was really into the wishing part. ;)

So sweet!

This Ariel was the prettiest and sassiest ;) that we have met.

For some reason they only have peasant Belle at Disney World.

After a fabulous breakfast of deep fried cream cheese danish :) we set out to find more characters. Our first stop was to see Rapunzel and Flynn Ryder from Tangled. At this point it was only about 9:15 and the characters weren't scheduled to come out until 10. So I stood in line while Chet and the kids went in search of hot chocolate. You see, over night a cold front moved into Orlando and it was freezing! While I was standing in line freezing my butt off I checked Weather Channel and it said that the temperature was 24 degrees! So cold. So cold.

Finally we were let into the area where the characters were going to be. They had the parents line up against the wall and the kids were all around a big table set up with crayons and coloring paper. When the kids finished coloring, Rapunzel and Flynn finally came out. Liv was dying because they came out and wanted to do a dance with all the kids. She was so embarrassed! Fortunately, it didn't last very long. :)

Poor Liv! I just love watching her face she looks like she is going to die of embarrassment!

Rapunzel and Flynn

This is right next to where you stand in line to see Flynn and Rapunzel and the kids wanted to pose for the camera. You don't say no when the kids want to pose. ;)

After meeting and dancing with Flynn and Rapunzel we wanted to go find Davy Crockett Donald in Frontierland and do Big Thunder and Splash Mountain.

This was a cool character find. For some reason Donald is very hard to see. He is hardly ever out so to see him and have him be in a new costume was awesome!

After riding Jungle Cruise (which got a +3) we wandered through Frontierland and came upon our family treehouse! ;)

It was almost time to head out but there was one more character that we wanted to see. So we headed back to Main Street to meet Daisy.

Surprisingly enough this is the first time we have ever seen Daisy. You think she would be out more with the other main characters. Maybe she is just elusive like Donald.
