Disney Days 2 and 3: Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Parade and the rest of Magic Kingdom (Day 3)

For those who know me, I am strict with bedtime. I feel it is one of the most important times of the day for a baby. But... for Mickey Mouse and all his friends... it was worth breaking the rules... last night we stayed out until midnight WITH Millie. She got to ride It's a Small World, Pirates of the Caribbean and Peter Pan. She even got to meet the real Peter Pan and Wendy, and they got a kick out of her "flying" power. Peter Pan said that she must have lots of happy thoughts for being able to fly so high. For those who haven't seen her flying power, refer to this post.

We picked a spot to watch the Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Parade. Before the parade started Santa caught our eyes in front of the humongous Christmas tree that greeted us at the park entrance. The line was so short because everyone was waiting for the parade to begin that it was perfect time to visit with Santa. She was very mesmerized by his beard especially as she kept yanking it. Intermittently she did get some snooze time in the Baby Bjorn, which I highly recommend, and went right to sleep without a fight (go figure!) when we got back to the house.
Today, we revisited Magic Kingdom and here are some photos from our day today. Millie especially loved the Tiki Room with talking birds. And I have so much more to say but I'm too whooped to write it so I'll let the photos talk to for themselves. Oh, but I will say that we ate dinner at the Boma Buffet in the Animal Kingdom lodge and it was fabulous! Lots of food and not enough stomach room and Millie enjoyed a lime. Good times!
