January 21st, 2019            

Drew and his Florida Jr. Everblades hockey team had a game early this morning and wound up losing in overtime, so that meant that we were free for the remainder of the day. Since we were still in Orlando, we decided to hit up the Magic Kingdom one more time for a few hours before heading home.

Since this was an impromptu visit, we didn't have any idea what we wanted to do. We targeted rides with short wait times, and did our best from there. Our first stop ended up being on the "it's a small world" ride, which is one of the classic Disney rides that you have to experience at least once. From there we made the walk over to the The Hall of Presidents, a show that the kids had never seen before.

After a couple of slow rides and attractions, it was time for something a little more exciting. We headed over to Frontierland to get in line for the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad roller coaster, which Drew and Jayden really enjoy. Although it was chilly today, the kids still wanted to ride Splash Mountain. Of course the temperature probably helped keep the line short, so it's a catch-22. Needless to say, it was a good time regardless of the weather.

At this point we decided that we should probably call it a day. We had a long drive ahead of us, and work and school tomorrow. And, as promised before, I will try to be better about tracking our activities next time so that I can give a better recap!

This seagull did it's best to hang with the ferry boat on our way to the Magic Kingdom.
