Just a Little Exciting

We decided last night that we would head back to the Magic Kingdom today but we would take our time getting there. Yesterday I became a little anxious about the transportation to and from the hotel to the park so we thought we would see what would happen if we didn't try to get there right at opening. We slept in til about 7:30 and went and grabbed some breakfast. We came back to the room and went down to catch the bus at 9:30 to head over to the Magic Kingdom. We didn't have to wait long for the bus and it wasn't nearly as crowded as yesterday. Once we got to the park we went stright to Tomorrowland and rode a few rides over there. Then headed to Adventureland to ride the new Pirates of the Caribbean ride. Braxton kept asking all day where the characters were and it really surprised me because he never seems to care one way or the other. About 3:30 it began to pour down rain. We were lucky and found a nice covered spot and sat and watched  for a bit. As soon as it lightened up we headed toward Main Street to get some shopping done only to get in and it began to pour again. I tried to shop but about half the park came to the same shops and I didn't find it very enjoyable. We had dinner reservations at Chef Mickey so when the rain slowed we caught the monorail to the Contemporary to eat dinner.
I had forgotten what the dinner was about but when we checked in they told us that 5 of the characters would be coming to every table. Braxton was SO EXCITED! He watched their every move and when they came to him he happily gave them a high five and posed for a picture.
