Honeymoon Day 2: Magic Kingdom Monday Morning

Monday morning we had an 8:05 am (5:05 am PST time) breakfast reservation at Cinderella's Royal Table. This is one of the most sought after breakfast reservations in the entire resort area! I called 6 months in advance and was able to book it with no problems. What's particularly nice about it was that the park didn't open until 9am, so we were inside the park (the restaurant is inside Cinderella's Castle) when it came time for Rope Drop (park opening).

Getting to the restaurant was another story. Because it was such an early reservation, we had set the alarm clock, and made a wake up call reservation. We got the wake up call and it seemed to be 20 minutes earlier then the alarm. I went back to sleep until the alarm went off. Once the alarm went off, I got up and started getting ready (this is the only day I wore make up- you'll find out why later). I happened to wonder into the kitchen around what I thought was 6:40 (leaving us 20 minutes to catch the early morning breakfast bus) to find out that it was really 7:05 am. Needless to say Aaron and I quickly finished getting ready and decided to take a cab to Magic Kingdom instead of the bus. Well, you can't take a cab directly to Magic Kingdom, you have to take it to the transportation and ticket center- and then take the monorail (needless to say it was a journey).

After all of our transfers, we finally made it to Cinderella's Royal Table! When we checked in, the cast member shouted out, "we have a honeymoon on that deuce" which we found quite funny. Truthfully, this is a character breakfast and we were probably the only ones there without a child, but I didn't care. I had heard great things about the food, and come on, it's Cinderella! When we entered we first got our picture with Cinderella:
Then we walked up the stair case, and were seated at our special honeymoon table!
They even gave us the swords and wands normally reserved for the little ones. Shortly after, breakfast was brought to us (it was super yummy) and then the princesses started making their rounds.
Aside from Cinderella we saw: Belle, Jasmine, Sleeping Beauty, and Snow White. I made Aaron pick whom he wanted to have his photo with, he picked Sleeping Beauty:
After breakfast was finished, they invited all of us to participate in a "Wishing Ceremony" which involved placing our wands over our "wishing star" and wishing on our hearts desire, which I of course, did.
After breakfast, we proceeded down to the lobby where we waited for the park to open. To our amazement, it was dead for the first 30 minutes!
We quickly did Peter Pan (as we walked right on!) and then headed over to Haunted Mansion.
After Haunted Mansion we went to fast pass Splash Mountain (can I tell you how hot and humid it was!) While waiting for our fast pass return time, we went back to Fantasyland and did Mickey's Philharmagic.
When we finished, it was time to go do Splash Mountain (we hadn't even done Splash, and you can see how curly my hair was already getting!)
After riding Splash Mountain, we walked around a bit, and decided to head back to the hotel. It was so hot and humid we just wanted to go relax in the pool.

Up next, a rainy evening at Animal Kingdom...
