Figures the day we're leaving Disney the weather is slightly overcast and perfect for being in the park. Andy got into Group 29 for Tron so we packed, loaded the rental car (after opening the trunk of an identical car in the parking lot and realizing it had jackets in it that weren't ours - oops) and went to Magic Kingdom. Right as we walked into Magic Kingdom there were special trolleys to take guests to the castle so we hopped on.
We rode right down Main Street with everyone wondering why we were special and they were walking.
How cute is this contraption?
Took this picture when we got off at the castle.
Crowds were really slow so we rode the Runaway Train roller coaster twice (five minute wait), the Barnstormer, Tron and the Snow White roller coaster (in the picture). While we were waiting for dinner Sunday night we were notified that United upgraded us to First/Business Class on the flight home. My ticket was upgraded first and let's just say Andy was very concerned why he wasn't upgraded as soon as I was. Eventually his upgrade came through, thank goodness. Gelato, a gin and tonic and some little turkey sandwiches in the United Club as we waited for our flight and Andy took work calls ... again.
First class is pretty nice. We'd never pay for it on a two-hour domestic flight but it's a welcomed free upgrade.
Andy was in the seat right behind me. He said he was going to ask people to switch seats so we could be together but once on the plane he decided they seemed too comfortable in their seats to be bothered. Hmmm.
I had a Coke before the plane even took off. Then they brought us a warm towel to wipe our hands and face, I had a glass of wine and they gave us a cup of warm mixed nuts.
Andy and I both had the Thai-inspired meatballs. Kind of odd to get a meal on such a short flight but we ate it. Our bags were among the first off the plane and Allison picked us up. B and the cats were glad to see us.
