magic kingdom, 01/2007
This past January, we went to visit my step-father, Terry Griffiths, who is semi-retired in Naples, Florida. We also drove a few hours north to Orlando and the Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom, which Joni and the kids love. Click on each thumbnail to see a larger version.


We were greeted by Chip and Dale; we met Horace Horsecollar and Clarabelle Cow; and we ran into that other fellow...


With Sleeping Beauty, Joni's favorite princess; Pluto, Goofy, Chicken Little, and Donald Duck


Joni meets her idol, Minnie Mouse; in Minnie's "house" and "garden"


Joni and the girls on the Mad Tea Party ride; with Alice and the Mad Hatter; a topiary Belle


Winnie the Pooh--and Tigger, too! On the Winnie the Pooh ride in our rain ponchos


"Look at those sailboat ears!" Us on the Dumbo ride


Some photos from Joni's favorite ride, "It's a Small World"


Admit it: right now, that song is going through your head
 


A sign on the way out of "It's a Small World"; the girls and Ariel; posing with Cinderella's castle


A hearse (pulled by a ghostly horse) outside the Haunted Mansion; ne'er-do-wells Brer Fox and Brer Bear


Chillin' with the Genie and riding "flying carpets" in the rain


Ally driving the Jungle Cruise ride; at the Swiss Family Treehouse;
At dusk, Cinderella's castle lights up


With Buzz Lightyear and riding the Tomorrowland Transit Authority


A lap around the racetrack, and then back to the castle to close out the day with fireworks!
