The next day our adventures would lead us to the one and only Magic Kingdom. We woke up and got all dressed up (again) spent time doing our hair and make up and were determined to find some really cute ears we saw at Animal Kingdom the day before. By the time we got to the entrance, it started to rain. It was actually pretty cold too, so we were already in for a treat. Despite the rain, I was a little excited to feel somewhat at home, I knew Disneyland and hopefully Magic Kingdom would be similar. Main Street looked pretty similar to Disney back home, but there are still many differences. We arrived around 12 and our first fastpass wasn't until around 2:30pm, so we walked around to kill time. I was determined to find the ears I wanted and also a Mickey Mouse Straw. I had told Liz from the beginning this was a goal of mine, and I wasn't leaving until we found it. We walked around, went on the Stitch's Great Escape (which was really cute) and found a shop with the ears I wanted. I was already soaking wet and my hair fell flat, so it didn't matter how I looked in selfies, I just wanted my ears. From there we still had time to kill so we walked around, and as I walked I saw some girl with a drink in her hands (being the foodie that I am) and saw the Mickey Mouse straw I wanted. I ran over to her and asked where she got it, she said it was "around the corner at the restaurant in Tomorrowland." I looked at Liz and said "WE HAVE TO FIND IT!" So we rushed over and found it at Cosmic Ray's Starlight Cafe. Here's the thing though, I wanted the straw for ONE Reason: to find a green one and put it in my Starbucks drink. The thing is, the straw actually cost $0.69 and you can buy it there, but being there person I am, I also bought a smoothie with it just for fun. I was disappointed though to find only red straws, but I found a straw so I was happy. From here we went over to the castle and tried to take some cute pics in the rain. They didn't seem to meet our Instagram standards, but they were still fun. The one in the middle is the one I posted on my Instagram. The overcast worked well with the highlights and bringing the brightness up made it nice to look at. After this we wandered around a bit, found Ariel's Grotto (her home not the restaurant), found Rapunzel's Tower, and lastly Gaston's Tavern. In here we were going to find this giant cinnamon roll that when you look at you'll get diabetes, but it's great. When we walked in, I looked to the left and heard the girl in front of me talk about the "rose cup." She said "that better not be the last one, I'll be so mad." I looked around the room and saw the image of the Beauty and the Beast rose cup. I was so excited and looked at Liz in denial saying "they have the cup here? At the Tavern back home they've been sold out!" Then while looking on Snapchat saw that my cousin had JUST BOUGHT ONE and I wanted to cry. As we got closer the girl repeated what she said, and I chimed in and said "if they ran out, I'll cry." She looked back and said "me too." I asked for one, they had them, and I almost cried. I loved the movie and honestly items that just go with movies and bring them to life really make me happy. The cutest thing about the cup is that if you push the button on top it lights up, you push it again, it goes fast, and once more will turn it off. I then spent the rest of the day having to turn the light off because it would go off in my backpack, it was annoying. From here we walked over to Starbucks and I finally was able to put my Mickey straw in my cup. Even though the straw wasn't green, I dealt with it. When I got my cup they called my name on it was written "Queen Regina", which made sense because my name actually means Queen. I went and posted it on Facebook with the caption: I think I just reached the highest level of Basic I didn't even have ask her to put Queen on it. She already knew. — at Disney's Magic Kingdom. It was actually pretty funny. Everyone loved it. I was happy. We then walked from here to Tomorrowland to get our fast passes for Space Mountain, and honestly the line for fastpasses was longer than the standby, everyone in line was so mad. It was still fun and was a little faster than our back home. We walked around, found more rides, saw fireworks later that night, rode the famous Seven Dwarfs Mine Train and walked until our feet had blisters, it was great.
