My 50th here we are!

Am finally excited and bouncing. At the airport having breakfast with my lovely husband, did twilight check in, stayed at the Hilton (for what the room looks like check out Robyn's photos exactly the same!!).

Will see you all on the other side, warn Mickey I want a hug and kiss, Stitch I will be more naughty than him and the dwarves that my husband is applying for a job!!!

Jet lag! 5am and awake! What can I say about yesterday, flight boring but watched Monster University and Ironman 3 (love Ironman and Marvel). Immigration nearly 2 hours, I have never seen it that bad! Weather humid but wonderful. Magical Express fairly quick stopped AoA and Pop, then Jambo and finally Kidani. Oh gosh how wonderful to see the arch. Magic bands, so far Ok (once the AP glitch was sorted but guest services at MK sorted it out. Thank you Vanya x fab CM who gave us our MNSSHP cards too). Apparently they are not linking to the MB properly so being taken off and cards issued. Then in to MK as it was open until 11. Got stuck just as Main Street Electrical parade was starting so went into a couple of shops found Allie's ears and will sort that out when we next go there.

Tried to get to Pecos for food and failed due to crowds so oh dear wink had to go to Cosmic Rays instead! Green Apple Slushie and pulled pork hit the spot! Came out and stood outside for the fireworks and arm round husband to watch them we were right under them and it was the most magical start and yes I cried they are so so beautiful I never get tired of seeing them.

We then walked through new Fantasyland again beautiful. Saw the second Wishes from the side of the castle again magical. We had FP for the second Main Street Electrical and bands worked fine for that. Grabbed a spot right outside the castle and waited. Oh I am home now spinning lights, characters waving and the dragon. We left after that as I was flagging, got the bus straight away, phew and a seat double phew and back to Kidani 20 mins. Walk to room well we are nearly all the way to the end but I don't care.

I forgot to mention when we came into villa/room I did run round it like a child going look, look oh do come and see a lot! This one bed is huge Smile I am so happy (slightly tired) but happy. Sorry for the ramble and no photos they will have to come later!

Have a magical time. I think we all cry a little a wishes. There's a lot of work that goes into getting to see those fireworks.

They are heavier than I thought Mark. We aren't really running to do rides as we want to take things steady but yesterday at DHS the wait time for Toy Story Mania was about 2 hrs at 11am and the fast passes had gone by 9.30!

Yesterday woke early unpacked, saw the baby zebra which was so cute and hit the bus by about 8.30. Overcast but humid. Two things we had to do was get out photo pass + and tables in wonderland. Waited at guest services for a bit of an age. There appears to be a lot of people trying to get to the front of queues without any true reason to be allowed to! The CM did a great and very polite job of explaining why you can do some things at Magic Kingdom you cannot do at DHS due to disability living act and the age of the parks!

In we did the photo pass card and went for our first FP+ at Tower of Terror. I love ToT and am really glad we had FP+ as the wait for that was an hour and we have our first ride photo where Graham looks alive, is smiling and... Has his eyes open. We had a walk around and I wanted to buy a new watch so went in to the villans shop and got a Maleficent watch that is just gourgeous. I love it it is so me. Now being the occasional bear of small brain I forgot that a watch with hands you should be able to see and read the time with.....yep youve guessed cannot see the hands! But it does look good, black hands and black face do not make for a good watch!

We then walked around past Gertie's lake and on to Toy Story Mania which we both love and play at home. Neither of us are very good on the real ride but again glad we did FP+ as the length of this was long.

It was hot so we wandered around went in to Writers Stop saw the carrot cake cookie but it was too near to our ADR to get one, next time getting one first. Caught the end of Jedi training which was fun and the guy running it was funny with the children. Can see why there are lines for this. It was time for our ADR at 50s Prime Time and that was so amazing with our server Mikey nearly making me cry (through happiness) and us having a dessert selection for breakfast today!! I will stop now as I have to prepare for today's adventures but keep reading for my rambling no photo blog (I will post photos but will have to be from home as IPad and camera do not play nicely together), EPCOT and MNSHHP here we come. Oh one observation from the morning there are a lot of people who don't plan and have no clue, then moan when they cannot get on TSM without a long wait and you touch in at the beginning of the FP line and when you get to the other end
