Wish Trip Day 3

We were all pretty tired today after our long day on Day 2!  We planned to sleep in, which meant we were all up by 9:30.  We called the breakfast cart and had fruit loops and english muffins with peanut butter.

Charlotte and I headed to La Ti Da spa and had our nails painted.  Charlotte also got a tattoo and some makeup!  It was run that day by some wonderful volunteers from Stanford University who were there for the week.

La Ti Da Spa!  They offer nail painting, tattoos and light make up for the kids!

We then did Charlotte's star and pillows in the Castle of Miracles!  Every wish kid that comes to the resort gets a gold star that gets hung on the ceiling.  Each kid (including siblings) also gets a magic pillow.

there were little nooks to explore in the Castle of Miracles.

 We got lunch to go from Katie's Kitchen, and headed to Disney's Animal Kingdom.

The place was CRAZY busy!  It was a bit easier to get to as there was just the tram from the parking lot.  There were only a couple rides with 'fast pass', and even the 'fast pass' lines were crazy busy.  We saw Minnie and Mickey Mouse.  The photographer was the best we had met, and managed to warm Nathan up for a couple photos!  We were going to do the Safari, but heard it was broken down, and the crowds were so crazy we just wanted to get out of there so we headed back to the resort. 

Once we were back to the resort, we got in a quick swim in the pool before dinner at the Gingerbread House.  There was a birthday party for Mayor Clayton in the Village which meant games, cake, and loot bags of course!.  The kids had a great time, and then we watched a magic show.  Nathan and I discovered the model train in Amberville Station!

The ice-cream palace - you could get ice-cream anytime of the day - needless to say, they saw us a lot!

The most amazing model train inside the Amberville train station.

The Amberville train station - one of our favorite places.  It had, a model train, an actual ride on train, arcade, remote control boats and some amusement park like games.

This was our villa!  Right across from the playground which was handy!

Matthews Boundless Playground - which was right across from our Villa.  It's designed to be a big Candyland game, and one night of the week, they have a live Candyland game.

We were a bit of a walk from the main part of the village, but they had this little train giving rides around the village!
