Camping At Disney World 2018 - Day 6

Picking up where I left off...

We spent the next day at the Magic Kingdom where we had FastPasses for Space Mountain, Splash Mountain and Peter Pan, in that order.

It's easiest (in my opinion) to take the boat from campground to the Magic Kingdom, plus the scenery beats a bus ride.  We traveled to the campground boat launch and waited about 15-20 minutes for a boat.

Pretty crowded
Picturesque

Even though it was a 2-hour wait we decided to ride the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train because we had never been on it before.  I'll not do that again.  The animatronics were great, but the line takes forever to move and the ride itself was hi-ho ho-hum.

Clouds are gathering.  I don't remember if we got any rain - I want to say it sprinkled some.

Glad we got to ride Peter Pan with our FastPasses.  Usually the line is prohibitively long so we just skip it.

And boom! - Ya' iced


Leaving the park
This was our last full day at Disney World.  The next day we would spend half a day, then hit the road.  We had originally planned to spend the half day back at Hollywood Studios, but...stay tuned.
