We spent one last morning in Magic Kingdom before hitting the road for the long ride home. We had breakfast with the princesses at Cinderella's castle, and yet again..it was a highlight of the trip. We met Cinderella downstairs, and Gage got a kiss. In fact, he had a lipstick mark on his cheek and the other princesses kept asking who he had been kissing!! Little ladies man...
We also met Snow White, who talked with us for a long time. Savannah asked her what her blue birds names are, but SW said she hadn't named them yet. So, they talked about possible names, and Gage told her all about his kitties at home.
She also came back over to our table for a wishing ceremony. She showed the kids how to wave their wand/sword over their wishing stars, close their eyes tight, and make a wish. When the ceremony ended, she showed them how their wishes were flying into the sky (twinkling lights in the castle).
And..we also met Ariel (who Gage seemed enamored by again), Sleeping Beauty (who asked Savannah if she was her twin sister, because she had her SB dress on), and finally..Jasmine. Savannah was VERY excited, talked to her about her monkey, and declared that Jasmine is now her favorite.
and...we finished off the day with a lot of rides on Thunder Mountain (there was no wait to so we rode it over and over), and a visit to Woody & Jesse
Because thing had started to get busy, we took one last ride on Cinderella's roller coaster. Before we left I found some info about secrets of Disney. One of them was that they hide paintbrushes on Tom Sawyer's island adn if you find them you get a surprise (they don't do that anymore). Another was that something fun happens when you ask the Knight of Armor for his autograph (you just look silly because nothing happens), and another was that Cinderella has a favorite horse on the carousel who has a red bridle, red ribbon on its tail, and a crown. We found it!
and finally.....I also read that there is a Sword in the Stone that kids try to pull out of the rock. I read that sometimes the sword comes out. As the VERY last thing we did for our Disney trip, the kids lined up to try it. Gage....DID IT!! His face was red he was pulling so hard, and he got it. He was so proud. Savannah wasn't so lucky, but maybe next time. He is still talking about it....
