Disney Day 2: Epcot

On Saturday we woke up really early and got ready for the big day. We were going to Epcot to meet the princesses! It was the beginning of our 4 day trek through Disney. We did a good job of getting there early to avoid the crowds. We opened 3 out of 4 parks.

Here we are all dressed up and ready to go. Jena as Cinderella, of course. We brought a Tinker Bell Costume for Lily, but she wore it for 1 minute at the restaurant and wanted to take it off.

Excited to start the day!

We met some of the characters just inside the gate. Lily liked them from about 5 feet away. Any closer and this was the result. Lily didn't make it in a lot of character pictures that day.

Once again we were there for the Garden Show. We hit Futureland first and actually road almost all the rides the girls were big enough for. Then off to The World Showcase.

The main event, Breakfast at Akershaus. Belle is the hostess and greeted us at the door. Lily started to cry when we got closer. I learned that princesses don't do crying babies, so Lily didn't make the picture.

Waiting for our Royal Breakfast.

And we got to meet the princesses (and Mary Poppins.) Everybody really liked Jena's blue nails.


Out in the park we found a few other princesses, a prince and a kitty.

Along the way we passed through the wilds of Canada.

And made some masks.

Before leaving for naptime we took a break in one of the playgrounds. Then it was back to the hotel for Lily's nap. Jena and Roger hung out at the pool and Lily and I took a nap. Then we got up to go back for dinner at the Garden Grill.

The girls loved the family style dinner we had, complete with Mac & Cheese, French Fries, and Chicken Nuggets. Lily was more excited about the food than anything else.

Lily liked the characters, from a distance, so she skipped the pictures. Jena though was ready to ham it up!

After dinner we wondered around some more. Right before we left we found these guys. Finally, Lily made a picture.
