We checked in to Fort Wilderness on Monday at 2:00. We settled into our sites at the 300 loop. We have never been on that loop before. The sites are nice but we cannot get satellite reception. The kids are happy that Disney has their old cartoon channel back on their cable line up at the site. We told the kids that we were not going to go to parks everyday and that we would not be going to a park on Monday. I cut all of the kid’s hair. Nathan gets his cut the day after Halloween but with the big beard he would look stranger than he does if I cut the rest of his hair. Timmy has been wanting to have his hair spiky so the girl who braided Nathan’s beard told me how to cut it. It worked but I need to get him some stiffer gel because his hair is so thick. Anyways… we looked and the Magic Kingdom had extra hours for the evening so we had dinner and went to the Kingdom to go on a few rides. Here is a picture of our new form of transportation around the campground.

I need to look into getting some battery operated lights for the bikes because it was difficult to see the sidewalks on the ride home plus dangerous because cars can’t see us either. Here is a picture of Nathan (with beard) and Josh on the boat ride over. Also, a picture of Samantha and Timmy with his new haircut.

The lines were great. It was late so it wasn’t hot and the crowd was light. We were able to walk right on to Buzz Lightyear and the Speedway. Here is a picture of mom and Samantha in their car and of Nathan and Timmy in their car.

After the Speedway we started making our way through the rides in Fantasyland. Here are all of the kids on the carousel. Samantha managed to find Cinderella’s horse again.

Next was Dumbo. I took a picture of Nathan and Timmy before the ride started. After I got his picture Nathan took the camera and got a picture of Josh and I since we were behind him.

The last ride before heading home for the night was It’s A Small World. Nathan, the boys and I were in one row and my mom and Samantha were behind us. Here is my mom and Samantha…

The last picture of the night is of one of the light decorations at the park. I love how Disney decorates for each season. This is the first time I have been here around Halloween. I can’t wait to see if the other parks are decorated as well or if it is just the Kingdom because of the Halloween parties…
