After we returned from the pool and had showers, we went to catch a bus back to Magic Kingdom. Once again ther was only a minute's wait until the bus pulled up. We crossed over to the monorail station and boarded the resort monorail for the Grand Floridian. We had a 5:30 ADR at the Grand Floridian Cafe. This would be our first time eating at this restaurant, and it definitely will not be the last! Everything was delicious and the service was terrific! Both girls wound up ordering from the kids menu, for Ashleigh it was the waiters mistake, but that was fine. The girls both had a very generous serving of Chicken Noodle soup for an appetizer, grilled chicken with rice and broccoli, and vanilla ice cream for dessert! Ron had the land and Sea, while I enjoyed the prime rib, both came with asparagus and red mashed potatoes! All very tasty, and our waiter Chris, was one of the best we've ever had. I also loved the raisin bread that came with the dinner rolls, yummy!
The plan was to leave the Grand Floridian and head back into the Magic Kingdom, but both Ashleigh and Ron were hoping to hit Downtown Disney. We compromised! We did take the monorail back to the Magic Kingdom and got to ride in the front! This was Ron's first time riding up there. Once back in Magic Kingdom, we boarded the train and got off in Toontown. I checked on the character lines in the Hall of fame, but they were way too long. Emily wanted to see Minnie's House as well as Mickey's House. Ashleigh then took her on the Barnstormer, and we made our way out of the park. Since the boat to the Poly and GF was waiting, we decided to hop on that and catch a bus to DTD from the Grand Floridian. Yet again, the bus was just pulling up as we were getting to the stop. Emily fell asleep on the way over, so while Ron held her, I went to rent a stroller at Guest Relations. We plopped in her down in it and we didn't hear a peep from her. Ron didn't find what he was looking for here, but I managed to get some minor shopping done at the World of Disney and got my AP discount! Not bad! We decided to call it a night, and returned Emily's stroller and still carrying her all the way to the bus, getting on the bus, and carrying her to the room, she did not wake. We laid her down in bed, removed her shoes, and she stayed out for the night. Once again, we watched a bit of TV, I wrote some more notes and it was lights out!
Day 3 soon to come!
