NYE

After getting cleaned up and rested, we headed back to Magic Kingdom. We enjoyed seeing a packed park and a great fireworks show. We were able to reride Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Carribean, Its a Small World and Phillarmagic. Plus we both had some more pineapple dole whip! We stayed for about 3 hours before we had enough of the shoving, pushing and fussing from other people before we decided we needed to head back to the hotel. We enjoyed the fireworks from our hotel and enjoyed the peace and quiet of just us. 

Cody and I had an amazing time on our honeymoon. Boy were we thankful for time together and celebrating being married. We were ready to head home and see Coco though since we had never left her alone this long.

Cody said Saturday night that he misses Disney and is ready to go back. If you knew his opinion of Disney when we were leaving Magic Kingdom on NYE, this was a huge relief. He was baffled with all the people that we dealt with our last night at disney. The employees weren't feeling the magic it was so packed. We are planning our trip for five or so years from now haha..Now this is the end of my honeymoon posts :)

Magic Kingdom

Today, we have been married three months. Its insane to think its already gone by this fast. I figured I would wrap up our honeymoon posts. 

I love Magic Kingdom. I saved it for our last day. We also wanted to enjoy New Years Eve here. More to come on that in the next post. I sat the alarm for 6:00 so we could be at the park at 7:00 when they opened for Magic Hours. Magic Hours are for people staying on property. Well, my alarm didn't go off and we didn't wake up until 7:00. We made it to the park around 8:00 when they opened. It was PACKED! The 2nd row end picture shows all the people trying to get in.

I love pictures from the side. It was 8:00 in the morning and no I had not been drinking. I knew they were sideways :)

We walked right onto the Pirates of the Carribean ride. They had changed it since the last time I rode it. We both really liked it!

Next we were off to Haunted Mansion and then to Its a Small World. The wait was just over an hour for it but guess who waited in line...as well as the 100000 other people :) See below haha

Even the bathroom says Princess instead of women :)

I also had to take a picture of Cody's phone. We waited in tons of lines and what else was there to do BUT Facebook, pinterest, and games on our iPhones. We definitely used our wedding gifts to each other frequently on this vacation. Now just to clarify we also talked a lot and really enjoyed the quality time with each other but you can only say so much by day 6 and we had 10 hours together in the car the next day haha

We were able to enjoy a parade with the best seats.

Then off to the hotel for me to take a shower and Cody a nap.

Harry Potter

I am a Disney girl through and through. 

I do not like Universal. 

I have been before and my favorite ride was Dr. Suess land (hey I am a teacher) and then the Shrek ride was pretty awesome too..well that was 4 or 5 years ago and I thought well lets give it another chance. Same feeling as before BUT I will say that the Wizarding World of Harry Potter literally MADE Universal/Islands of Adventure. It was awesome, amazing and so real life. Well as real life as a movie can get :)

I love to read. I have read all the Harry Potter books. Cody is a movie guru and has loved all the movies. As a matter of fact we watched the 7th one part 2 on Monday night! I literally felt on set or in the book (however you want to look at it). But back to the point with many pictures coming your way.

You can see Hogwarts in the distance.

As always, I loved Suess landing. It is so cool! We hung out here for awhile because Harry Potter was already full. You had to get a ticket (free) to go at a later time. It was only an hour and a half delay but boy were we ready to go in!

Cody and I got to the gate a few minutes early and got some pictures.

We waited in line for almost 2 hours to take the tour of the castle which includes a ride. The picture that we bought from the ride is included at the end of this...

Love both of these..

Afterwards, we went to try butter beer. We couldn't decide which one we wanted so we shared. After trying both, I liked both but I loved the frozen version. It tastes a lot like cream soda but more butterscotch.  Cody liked the frozen better also :)

After enjoying "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter", we were back to Islands of Adventure.

Cody rode the hulk. I cheered him on from the sidelines and got pictures. I am not a fan of roller coasters but rode some while in Orlando. I refused gently turned down my husband about getting on this one. It went upside down.. NO WAY! :)

On the way out, Cody found a wand. In Hogsmeade (back to Harry Potter), the line was over 40 people to get a wand. Then the shop that sold them (based on the movie) had over an hours wait just to get in..so Cody said we didn't have to wait but oh my goodness was he excited to find a wand at the front of the park. He directed traffic with it all the way back to disney :)

We went back to the hotel and got rested up, changed and were off to dinner. We enjoyed a nice, romantic dinner at Narcoossee's at the Grand Floridian. Our food (we both got same thing) is shown in the last picture plus we both got desert. BTW side note about disney. If you go and stay on property, get the dining plan. Our bill at Narcoossee's took two of our table dining points each BUT our actual bill was almost $200 and boy was it the best meal we ever ate. We definitely have never ate like that and won't again anytime soon but the dining plan is the WAY to go when you are at disney. We enjoyed many great (average price haha) meals at Disney at no cost to us but the tip. Yes we payed for the plan and it averaged out to be a lot cheaper but don't ask me those numbers cause I don't know them haha

Back to dinner...as we were walking up to Narcoossee's (I hope I am spelling that correctly), the fireworks started going off at Magic Kingdom. We were able to watch them over the lake and got a great show!

A few of our cell pictures from our Harry Potter day :)

Only one day left to bore you with!

R&R day

Day 3 was an easy going day for our honeymoon. We started our morning at Chef Mickey's. Cody said it was a sophisticated petting zoo between all the kids screaming and the characters. He ended up loving it as much as some of the kids. The breakfast buffet is yummy anyway but its always a plus to get to meet Minnie, Mickey, Goofy, Pluto and Donald :)

Description below

1-This is where we ate on Day 4 (Friday) 

2, 3, 4, 5, and 6-riding the boat around the lake in front of magic kingdom, Grand Floridian, Polynesian, and Contemporary resort. Grand Floridian is where we are on Friday night and The Contemporary is where Chef Mickeys

7, 8 and 9 are just fun pictures we took :)

That afternoon, Cody and I went back to Downtown Disney. We met my Great Aunt and Uncle, Great Grandma and cousin/her husband for a great dinner at Wolfgang.
