Would you like to join us for a trip to Disney's Magic Kingdom Theme Park in Orlando, Florida especially for breakfast at Crystal Palace because it is a lot easier to see the pictures than to see it in person? Here is my favorite picture first!
With living in Saint Petersburg, Florida, we began the trip with about an hour and a half drive to land in the epic parking lot!
The parking lots as the Walt Disney World Resort theme parks are all massive especially this one!
While I have never seen an alligator or a snake at Disney, a sign warns me that I might.
The parking lot is so big we have to take a monorail from where we parked into the theme park.
Before buying a ticket, we have to go through metal detectors which have been added within the last five years. Would these actually make any difference in preventing a crime? Are they a guaranteed inconvenience for thousands of people every day?
The cost for a ticket is over $100 per person per day including children over 2 or 3! We have season passes which were about $1,400 a year to come whenever we want along with free parking which is $20 per car otherwise. With doing posts and videos about Disney for my business, I write off half of the cost for season passes for my wife/photographer 
Family on the way into the monorail! I want a matching shirt ...

Monorail space mountain view!
20 minutes after parking we finally arrive at the entrance to the park.
We love the fall decorations!
The train station looms large over the entrance!
Inside we are one family among many on Main Street.
I put my camera away and just wanted to experience the visit right before the castle. What a noob! As soon as it was in the case, I got it back out.
Our daughter Madeleine with nana and papa.
The horses are beautiful!
Our main event was breakfast at Crystal Palace because Winnie the Pooh, Eeyore, Tigger, and Piglet all stop by to say hi! Here is the first glimpse of it.
A few steps forward.
The stairs up!

Into the dining room!
Lovely sunroof!
Hello Eeyore!

Piglet with nana and Madeleine!
The best whole plant food option I could locate for breakfast was oatmeal with a few toppings!
My father in law agreed to pose for a picture with his breakfast if I mentioned his podcast named The Limey and The Yank at https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-limey-the-yank/id1253462598. He signed up for Steem at 
Time to look at the breakfast spread starting with the cinnamon rolls!
For the kids?
I think I dipped out of vegan and into vegetarian by eating one of these!
Made to order omelets are available!
A sweet savor unto the Lord featuring salmon, yogurt, and eggs.
Biscuits, gravy, and breakfast pizza!
We saw Winnie the Pooh!
Winnie the Pooh is getting a high five!
What a wonderful hug!
Eeyore and Pooh in flowers!
Every day is friendship celebration!
The crew prepares for lunch. I was hoping we would get to double tip breakfast and lunch but no such luck. We have to leave before lunch opened!
Right before we left, hugs from Tigger!
And papa with Winnie the Pooh on our way out!
Off to explore the rest of the park and use our fast passes! Here is a closer shot of the castle!
And closer with a beautiful sky in the background!
Carousel where I made use of the Nikon photo spot kind of.
After breakfast, our next ride was Under the Sea with the Little Mermaid!
Inside a relaxing ride!
Here is the ride entrance and exit.
Inside the Beauty and the Beast store, I wanted to buy all these and take them home but in practicing a minimalist and practical approach at home, I realized anything I bought would end up being given away as soon as it got some dust on it. Look but don't touch right?
Our final ride was It's A Small World!
At the end of the ride, we say goodbye in many languages!
We were amazed to see the sign actually said goodbye Jerry!
After that, back home while I drove and everyone else napped in the car! Thank you for joining us on our day trip to Magic Kingdom Theme Park in the Walt Disney World Resort!
Love,
Jerry Banfield
