Our day at Disney was so busy that we have to report it in instalments. Most can't fit a visit to the park in one day, how could we do it all in one post? Today we'll talk about the forgotten man in all the planning, Oliver. We knew Isabelle would have lots of attractions to see and princesses to meet, with poor little Oliver set to follow her from spot to spot, mostly wondering "what is this place?". Trooper that he is, he accompanied Isabelle on her morning escapades, riding in the stroller and even hopping out to do some shopping. Battling incoming teeth, Oliver then desperately needed a nap and with a not-so-comfy stroller, there was no place to go down. Isabelle and Mom headed off to her appointment, while Oliver and Dad went in search of silence. Finally the pooped prince conked out on his Dad's shoulder when they reached the monorail, which they then rode for the next hour to ensure a good sleep! Once back in action, Oliver had some lunch, unwillingly met Snow White (who called him Bashful), checked out the character-filled parade and then discovered something he really loved: a marching band! He was blown away, first staring at them like they had come from another planet, then clapping and smiling as they banged out their tunes. We knew he liked music but we didn't know it would stop him in his tracks like it did. It was fun to just watch him getting entranced by the drums and the horns, our happy guy was back. We were thrilled for him to get some enjoyment out of such a long and busy day. Next time we are here, Isabelle will have to be ready for her brother to dictate some of the agenda!
It took a group this big to get Oliver's undivided attention!

The best job in the band!

Big sister felt it was a little bit loud
