I am attempting to post about this day again...I swear I did it already, and now it is not there...:confused: Here I go..
This morning was our Keys to the Kingdom tour. I was over the moon with joy to go on this tour. The five of us headed out to MK, we had a 9am tour scheduled. The kids split off together and we met up with our group. Mark was our tour guide, and he was terrific. Honestly, I didn't learn too much that any devoted Intercotee or Disney fan didn't already know, but it was fun nonetheless. We went backstage to the parade floats, we rode Pirates, HM and Jungle Cruise and it was cool to get an insiders perspective. We had lunch at Columbia Harbour house, and there were sovenier pins (keys to the kingdom!) waiting at our place setting. That I liked. Meanwhile the kids successfully handled their lunch ADR at the Crystal Palace. After lunch we went down to the Utilidors! I couldn't wait to do this. Believe me when I say, there wasn't anything that we saw that Disney didn't want us to see. There was a dedicated wing for the tour. It was enjoyable anyways.
We met up with the kids and back to the Poly for some water mice! http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp324/lcrimando/SANY2533-1.jpg
We love the mice and had fun touring the waterways...
Look how lovely the Volcano pool looks pulling into the marina...Pretty Poly.

We spent time playing in the pool afterwards,
The girls got dressed up for our evening at Marrakesh, a first for us..

We got a table DIRECTLY on the stage where the belly dancer and musicians play. A little awk-ward..:blush: but a unique experience, I'll leave it at that!! The food was delish, and our server took his time with the kids, showing how their name would look in his country. http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp324/lcrimando/SANY2592-1.jpg
We snuck in a SSE ride tonight too, and another Kim Possible mission which took us to France! This was a great one. At one point we had to look up towards the eiffel tower and say cheese, then they sent our photo to our Kimmunicator! Neat!
Our mission ended at this old style camera. http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp324/lcrimando/SANY2600.jpg
Kai did some frog hunting on the path to the Poly from the TTC..
