One More Disney Day

So in case you didn't hear, yesterday the Magic Kingdom was open for 24 hours for the "one more Disney Day" Leap day celebration. It opened at 6am yesterday and closed at 6am this morning. Alex and I went last night around 11pm to experience the craziness.. and it was crazy. There were TONS of people there. I think Disney definitely underestimated the number of people that would be in attendance. We didn't even get our "one more Disney day" buttons and they were almost completely out of the tshirts and we got there 7-8 hours before park close! Anyway, we wanted to be part of the special day and even though it was so crowded that we only rode a few rides I'm still glad we can say we were there.


This picture of the castle was around 2am. They had an ongoing pajama dance party in front of the castle. We also started to play this new game in the Magic Kingdom called the sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom. We just started playing last night so we're still learning but basically it's our duty to save the Magic Kingdom from Hades and all of the other Disney villains! It's this interactive game where you have spell cards and cast spells against the villains at portals all over the park. We only got to 1 last night because there were so many people but you can play it as long as you like so we'll definitely be playing the next time we go back. 


Here we are on the "people mover." We look excited- but it's definitely no thrill ride. haha It basically takes you on a tour through tomorrowland which is a section of the Magic Kingdom. Basically, it's a good way to sit down and relax- and since everything was so packed this was one of the only rides that didn't have a huge line.




This picture was taken on Main Street USA as we were leaving around 3:45am. There were still lots of people throughout the park. Alex had to get up for work around 6:45 this morning so I'm sure he's been exhausted all day. Unfortunately my work day hasn't even started.. I'm working 6pm-2:30am tonight and not looking forward to it at all. Luckily, I'm off this weekend so I won't have to worry about it after that. We're planning to go back to Magic Kingdom sometime this weekend to continue to protect the kingdom from villains!
