Hands down the best thing we did or saw was the dinner with the princesses at Cinderella's castle inside the Magic Kingdom. You have to make reservations for this FAR in advance and it is not cheap, BUT so worth the money and I will do it again next time we go! Dressed in full Cinderella gear - dress, new light up shoes, wand, and crown - we had a 7:00 reservation, and with some questionable weather I was a little afraid they might cancel it. After the sweet Disney rep. reassured me that "Cinderella is always home", we headed out with our little princess and our ponchos. Just getting to look inside the castle was so exciting to Caroline. When we walked in the first thing we did was meet Cinderella and get our picture taken with her(2 professional pictures were "included" in our dinner). Caroline was star-struck and let us take as many pictures as we wanted. Then when we were seated for our dinner (which was delicious!), one by one, each princess was introduced and then came into the room to greet her guests. She came by each table, made some small-talk, asked questions, and took pictures and signed autographs. At the very end, they had a "wishing ceremony" where you got to make a special wish with you wishing star. I think Caroline's wish was to spend every night in the castle with her "new friends".
Warming up our wand before we went inside the castle for dinner
Meeting Cinderella for the 1st time. Caroline showed her the new glass slippers she got in the hotel room and thanked her. She told her they were a little too big. Cinderella didn't miss a beat and responded, "I have a hard time keeping my glass slippers on too."
More wand waving before we were seated for our dinner.
The first princess was announced and it was...
SNOW WHITE!
Second princess coming in the room, and it is...
Sleeping Beauty!
Then Ariel!
And Belle!
Finally getting to wave her new wand for this wishing ceremony. She is definitely a professional wand waver after our trip. Maybe she can get that wand to help her pick up her room at home!
