Since we got in late the night before due to Mickey's Halloween Party we had a late start to our day. Today Emilia received her very first haircut at the Harmony Barber shop on Main Street USA. While there wasn't a lot to cut off Emilia did well since they gave her lots of different light up toys to play with and that she got to sit on Daddy's lap. This started the asking for a light up toy the rest of our trip. They gave Emilia a nice certificate for her first hair cut and a set of Mickey Ears with First Haircut embroided on the back of the hat. All for $18 which to me is a steal in Disney!
After her haircut we made our way back to Toontown and took a few rides on Goofy's Barnstormer. Emilia was tall enough to ride and now is hooked on rollar coasters. She had the cutest little scream and kept asking to go again. I think we rode 3 or 4 times in a row before we moved on to Fantasyland.
It was packed in Fantasyland today so after taking a spin on the carousel and watching Mickey's PhilharMagic we decided to go to a different park. We caught the Castle Stage show on our way out and went back to the resort for lunch and figure out what would be a good park to go to according to Tour Guide Mike. Definately worth the money subscribing to that site as he tells you what parks are the best to go to each day.
We decided to head to Epcot to ride a couple of quick rides before we head over to Hollywood Studios for the evening to see Fantasmic! We rode The Seas with Nemo and Friends, caught a showing of Turtle Talk with Crush where we educated him on what a weekend was, and Herm and I each caught a ride on Soarin. Emilia had fun in the Seas Pavilion showing Julie all of the fish. Soon it was time to head over to the International Gateway to walk to Hollywood Studios. Now we have never walked there before and it was dark so we got a little lost. We should have taken the boat but didn't feel like waiting for it. Somehow we missed a turn and ended up at the Mini Golf Fantasia Gardens. We backtracked and soon found the correct path to Hollywood Studios.
This is the first time that we have seen Fantasmic as it is only shown twice a week since we always travel in the slow season. The show is extremely popular so you are always fighting the crowds no matter when you go. It was worth the wait and battling the crowds to see at least once. Emilia loved the show so we may do it again sometime!
