"Here [We] Leave Today and Enter the World of Yesterday, Tomorrow and Fantasy"
Day two started off with an early, but not as early as yesterday, wake up call. My roommates and I all had packed our concert attire the night before so we were ready to rock and roll out to breakfast when the time came. Soon enough it was departure time and we all loaded our buses to hit up Disney's Magic Kingdom.
We ferried over the lake and we were met with the classic Disney picture: Cinderella's Castle
We got inside the park and immediately started going on rides. My group got through three rides before the orchestra kids had to bid adieu to the choir kids and get to our rehearsal.
We eventually got settled in with our instruments and then it was time for the wind to blow in. It was quite blustery and kept blowing our sheet music every which way. The Disney crew, like always, had a fix prepared already. We used fiberglass sheets to keep our music down so we could also read the music.
We roamed around Disney Springs for awhile before attending the choir's concert. We found some of the highest quality food trucks I have ever had the opportunity to eat. The choir preformed beautifully and they sang one of my personal favorites, "Light One Candle" by Peter, Paul and Mary. The soloists also did such a fabulous job on the Gospel tune! If you didn't watch the choir's performance, I would strongly suggest that you go watch it at your earliest convenience.
We left back to Magic Kingdom but before we could even get everyone on the bus, a black cat crossed the street and not too far behind was Mr. Teague bounding after it. We went directly to Splash Mountain when we got back which was a great choice. The rest of Magic Kingdom is a bit of a blur because it all went so fast but my favorite part was buying Mickey Mouse shaped ice cream and Minne Mouse ears.
There were some technical difficulties with the fireworks so we left to go to the ferry. We ended up lounging on the ferry and watched some of the fireworks from there and there was a floating light show. Today was definitely just as great as yesterday, it was so fun!
