Destination Disney - Downtown Disney

Since Magic Kingdom was such a long day, we decided to let everybody have a rest day....only it was NOT a rest day. We did sleep a little later and had a later breakfast, but then we decided to go to Downtown Disney to do a little souvenir shopping. It wasn't rest. We walked almost as much as you do at the parks!

We knew the Bibbity Bobbity Boutique was there, so we headed straight there to get appointments. We parked at the OPPOSITE end of "mall." This was no ordinary mall either. I mean, this place has it's own map! So we got to the Bibbity Bobbity Boutique, and the participating girls were treated like princesses. McKenzie even got long hair that she tossed around regularly.

Then we headed to lunch where the boys (BLaine and Gavin) had fun playing with my camera

Blaine had been looking for a Tigger hat since the minute we stepped off the plane. He found one he wanted, but they only had it in toddler sizes. I told him the day we went to Downtown Disney, we would find one in HIS size. He asked about it just about every hour. So after lunch, we headed to the Pooh store to find him one. They only had the toddler size one. Period. He wanted it SSSOO bad, and even though I knew it wouldn't fit long, it did fit that week at Disney World, so I let him have it. I later found a cap with Tigger golfing, so I bought him that one, too, for later.

After that, we all split up. The girls wanted to shop, and the boys wanted to go to DisneyQuest, a three story arcade that you buy a ticket to get in, and all the games are "free". That's how the boys tell it anyway. On their way down there, they stopped at the Lego store, of course.

After our shopping, we took the LONG walkback to the other end to meet up with everybody.Since the boys were the designated drivers, Kyle drove the non-arcaders home to swim and cook dinner and then went back to DisneyQuest.

The evening was relaxing before we headed back out early the next morning to....
