Spring Fling at Mickey's Retreat

Yesterday we went to Mickey's Retreat for the annual Spring Fling. Mickey's Retreat is a "park" for cast members only. It's on a small lake where you can rent paddle boats or canoes or go fishing. There's sports fields, sand volleyball, 2 pools, a playground and pavillions for cook outs.

So yesterday when we got there we bought a bunch of tickets for $.25 each. For one ticket, Piper got a cute pink basket to collect prizes in. Piper was given a slip of paper that she took from station to station to collect a stamp and a prize. Each station was to celebrate a different Spring holiday like Easter, Passover and May Day. Once she collected all the stamps we turned in her paper for a chance to win an Easter basket filled with goodies (unfortunately she didn't win). Mary Poppins, Bert, Mickey and Minnie were there, so we got to meet and take pictures with them. We played a bunch of carnival games for one ticket each and Piper got to make a bunny necklace for one ticket. There were lots of arts and crafts, but Piper was too young for most of them. Mommy and Piper went down the inflatable slide together for one ticket. And after all the fun we grabbed a bite to eat. It was a really fun event and we'll probably go back again next year!

Looks like you all had a great time. It is so great that Piper is exposed to the Disney world and all its characters. She is a lucky little girl!
