With love (and photobombing chickens) from Disneyworld

We are in sticky hot Florida to soak up some theme park adventure. More specifically the worlds best sister (and aunt and sister in law) decided she wanted to treat the 5 of us to Magic Kingdom and Universal studios galore. Who would not yell “yes please” and take their kids out of school and hop on a flight going south for this? We have certainly looked forward to this for ages. And since Christine paid - it was her rules! And one of the rules are ears for everyone:

But first we had to prepare. Such as getting the hair rollercoaster ready:

And getting through the magic parking and the magic tram ride to the magic ferryboat where we were immediately met by the magic bag search and the magic metal detector (this has cracked me up at both my visits).

And once inside the magic kingdom there were parades to watch

And bags to hold

And souvenirs to buy. I often do not buy any souvenirs but then I met Hei Hei. It was not love at first sight

And Hei Hei does have an ugly tendency to photobomb pictures:

But we made sure to restrain him for the Goofy and Donald photo session. Where we learned that both characters are quite egoistic (on the verge on being racist.....) as they prefer any visitors to look like them and them only - and they will not refrain from stealing hats from poor kids making the wrong hat choice:

Or trying to kiss pretty teenage girls:

LOL! Who thought it could be that much fun for a photo session?

We didn’t stay for fireworks as the park closed at 6PM for regular guests as they were preparing for Halloween special events. But that was OK as we were quite tired - despite an afternoon caffeine intake:

And we also needed to rest before....... a visit to universal studios the following day. Stay tuned
