Hey there, hi there Larry!
The countdown is on! Your Walt Disney World vacation is coming up quickly, and I'm sure your whole family is buzzing with excitement!
March 9 sounds like a fantastic day for a visit to
Magic Kingdom. (Then again, is there ever a day that isn't a fantastic day to visit a Disney theme park?) The park is open late that night, until 11:00 PM. While I love spending time in Magic Kingdom, taking a break to either go back to your resort for a rest or heading off to a restaurant outside of the park can really help your whole family recharge.
Dinner at
Steakhouse 71 sounds like a perfectly delicious break. It's a relatively short walk to
Disney's Contemporary Resort, or it's a quick
trip on the monorail if your feet need a break. Take your time with dinner, relax, and be sure to save room for the Steakhouse 71 Chocolate Cake. Don't worry about getting back into Magic Kingdom after your meal. As long as you have a park reservation you can leave and come back as often as you like that day.
Hope this helps. Have a magical (and delicious) vacation!
Diane
