Our morning went something like this:
Jeff and I woke up at 5:45 and got ready. We got the boys up at 6:00. Jeff leaves to go stand in line just after 6am. I take the kids to the continental breakfast at the Captain Kidd restaurant next door at 6:15 and we take Jeff some food. We meet up with Jeff (first in line!) at the gates at 6:45. Jeff had already made friends with the family behind us who is from Salem, Oregon. The gates open and we rush to our first ride, the Nemo Submarines. We hadn't wanted to waste time standing in this line since it is always huge and doesn't move very fast. Besides that, we both had memories of the ride being pretty lame. After power walking with our boys on board the stroller we were first on the Sub ride and there was only one other family on our ride. It turned out to be a really fun ride and Harrison loved it. They have redone the entire ride to be Finding Nemo and they have really cool effects. Since we were at the park an hour early all the rides in Tommorowland were pretty short so we rode all the ones that usually have long lines like Buzz Light Year where you shoot targets with your lazer gun for points, and the Astro Orbiter, kind of like the Dumbo ride but in rocket ships. We actually headed over to Dumbo next since it's typically a long, slow loading line and the boys really had fun.




We spent the afternoon riding all our favorites again like Pirates of the Caribbean, Haunted Mansion, and Jeff and James did splash mountain and big thunder railroad. Jeff took advantage of the single rider line for Indiana Jones while I kept the boys entertained in the gift shop looking at fake rubber snakes and other overpriced paraphernalia. We heard the parade on Main Street so we found a park bench in the back and watched. Harrison loves to dance whenever he hears music so he was bouncing and jumping all over the place.
We headed out early since we wanted to get the kids in bed at a decent hour since we were planning to stay out late for the World of Color the next night. Here's a picture of our room configuration we made up for James and Harrison.

Reading these really makes me think I should plan a Disney trip.
