Disney World - Day 7, Epcot

Day 7 - our final day at Disney World. We started the day at a Princess breakfast. Another buffet meal, but this time we had Princesses coming by to visit us. What a thrill for Alex, some personal attention from a number of princesses.

However, all good things must come to an end. Jen & Alex dropped Joe & Emily off at the airport early in the afternoon. Joe headed back to Virgina to work, while Jen and Alex had another 5 days in Florida with Jen's parents (but that is another blog entry). Fun was had by all and this fantastic adventure had come to close. Nothing left now but the scrap booking and the stories.



Alex shows Belle her Mickey sword. Belle was impressed, really.



Pretty pretty princesses.

Yep, you guessed it - she is goofy.

Disney World - Day 6, the Marathon & Magic Kingdom

Day 6 started early, way too early. Joe suited up and headed out for the Disney Marathon before even the early worm was out. Joe met up with Bob and Todd to run the 26.2 miles. Of course, the humidity kicked in just in time for the marathon. Bob decided to run for broke and Todd & Joe brought up the rear.

Following the marathon (and a group nap), we headed back to Magic Kingdom for our final evening.



The boys waiting to start - all smiles, for the moment.



Todd & Joe meet up with Jen at ~ mile 12. Still smiling.



Alex and daddy.



Mile 21, what's a Mater?



Alex gets to ride in the front of the Monorail while heading to Epcot to meet daddy.

Nothing but smiles.



Sure is pretty.



What a way to end the evening.

Disney World - Day 5, Epcot

Day 5 found us back at Epcot. We didn't think that we'd spend so much time at Epcot, however we certainly enjoyed it.



Alex gears up for the day. Ears on - good to go.



Always the performer this one.



Dad & Alex on the bus.



Group shot in front of Epcot.



More character shots, and Mickey too.
