Disney Day 3

 Day 3 was by far our best day!!  We got there early, before the park opened so we could do some of the rides that get super busy.  As we were waiting in line the girls were hot so we told them to go sit in the shade close by, as I was walking up to see them they were talking to 2 girls that worked there.  They were asking them where their parents were.  So I said Hi!  Then they asked me if we wanted to be the first guests in the park and help open the gates for everyone else!  Of course I said yes!!
 They formed a line and clapped as we walked in!
 Then we had a photo shot with all the cast members!
 Mickey and Minnie also came to greet us!
 Getting ready to "unlock" the gate!
 "Hong Kong Disneyland is now open!"
We were the first ones on the Dumbo ride!

 Mickey hats!
 We had a great time but we need to rest up for our Character dinner so we headed back to the hotel to swim!
 Enjoying the nice weather and pool!
 We went to dinner at The Enchanted Garden.

 Pluto walked us to our table!
 We got to spend time with Pluto

It was an AWESOME day, one we will never forget!

 We had a great first day at Disneyland.


 Sleeping Beauty Castle
 Gary took the girls on the Tea Cups

 We got to see Minnie
 Mickey
 Goofy
 Donald
 Winnie the Pooh
 Hannah & Ben took a little nap in the stoller
 While Hannah was sleeping Kenzie got to see Aurora.  Aurora asked Kenzie all about Hannah and signed their books.
 We saw The Flights of Fantasy Parade.

 Aurora noticed Kenzie in the crowd and waved to her!


 Later we were able to see Aurora again.  When Hannah walked up to her she said "you must be Hannah, Makenzie and I are really good friends and she told me all about you!"  It was cool that she remembered the girls!  
 Ben!
 We also saw Cinderella

We had a very busy first day and got to see a lot of Characters.
After we left we went back to the hotel and went swimming!  
What a great day!
