Day 8 of the Florida vacation was Disney Magic Kingdom. Despite waiting a long time for the bus, they made it to the park 5 minutes before rope drop at 8am. Pete ran off to get fastpasses for Buzz Lightyear, while Mom went to meet him at Space Mountain and Dad and Sam had a brief but poorly-timed stop at the bathroom. By the time everyone got there, Pete had already finished riding Space Mountain one time. So he went a second time with Mom, Sam, and Dad.
When Pete/Sam/Dad went to ride Space Mountain again, they had the good fortune that the ride broke down and was closed right before they got on. This got them one free fastpass for any ride, which they were able to use in the afternoon to get on to Splash Mountain.
At lunch, like they did at Animal Kingdom, Pete and Sam ran off to get fastpasses for Big Thunder Mountain Railroad while Mom and Dad finished eating. It took them a while to find the ride and make their way back, but Pete enjoyed figuring out everything on the map.
Throughout the day they enjoyed the following rides/activities:
- Space Mountain (4.5 times)
- Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin (2 times)
- Stitch's Great Escape
- The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (2 times)
- Mickey's Philharmagic
- Peter Pan's Flight
- It's a Small World
- Haunted Mansion
- The Hall of Presidents
- (lunch) Pinocchio's Village Haus
- Thunder Mountain Railroad
- Splash Mountain:

- Jungle Cruise
- Pirates of the Caribbean:
- Walt Disney World Railroad
- Monsters Inc Laugh Floor
- (dinner) Cosmic Ray's Starlight Cafe
- Tomorrowland Transit authority People Mover

It only rained briefly during the Jungle Cruise and Pirates of the Caribbean rides. Sam bought his little gun at the Pirates gift shop.
They made it back to the hotel at 10:00, so grabbed some snacks and went for one final swim in the pool at the hotel before packing up for the long drive to Virginia Beach.
