Spontaneous Day!

Before we get into our discussion of Spontaneous Day, enjoy this side by side comparison of Colleen with the Denmark Norway troll, and one of her with Ariel, her idol.

Prepping for her future job singing Part of Your World every 17 minutes.

Today, we woke up and based on the very cold temperatures and a forecast that predicted it would only get colder, decided to pack up a day early and spend tonight at Courtney's aunt's house, who had generously offered to host us again. It was so spontaneous! 

So after we slept into as much as we wanted (spontaneously woke up!) we packed up our campsite, and said good by to campsite 1504 and the rest of Fort Wilderness.

Folding air mattresses!

Packing the back seat!

Sad, empty campsite.

Spontaneously heading to the Magic Kingdom!
After that we spontaneously (well, not really, we discussed it the night before) returned to Magic Kingdom to ride everything we wanted to one last time, and see a few things that we missed out on before.

 - Robert miraculously was able to get a perfect score on Buzz Lightyear, proving that he was the true Galactic Hero among us. He was very proud of this moment, and it may be the crowning achievement of his young life.

The perfect score.

 - After staring at them for days, Courtney finally (spontaneously!) decided to get the Mickey ice cream, and Colleen and I joined her for some delicious frozen Disney treats.

 - We saw Mickey's Philharmagic and the Hall of Presidents (spontaneously!) which we missed out on our first day of Magic Kingdom, which was fun! We also rode Space Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad again (not spontaneously, we got fast passes), since we loved them both so much.

Once we were done at Magic Kingdom, we headed over to Downtown Disney to have a nice farewell dinner at Portobello (pseudo-spontaneous, we decided that day, but we had to get a reservation), and it was a nice change of pace to eat something that wasn't PB&J or fast food, and reminisce about the awesome week we had at Disney.

Look! Real food! (Real food not pictured) 
Overjoyed about the prospect of real food.
We then drove back to Courtney's aunt's house, and are prepping for our road trip back to Ithaca. Cannot wait for road trip, part two, and we all know what road tripping means...the return of hourly blog posts! So get your refresh button ready tomorrow, because we know for sure we're going to have a rollicking good time traveling from Florida to North Carolina!
