We left off with a little less than two hours to go until our Le Cellier ADR. I was cranky and trying not to bring Jen down with my crankiness. We decided to make our way over to World Showcase and ride the Mexico ride.
I love how each park had a balloon of their "icon".
Jen pointed out this amazing light fixture as we were walking toward the Gran Fiesta..is that what it is called? I think this is one of my top 10 light fixtures of the trip. Just gorgeous!
Still disturbed by the Donald Pinata.
After our ride we sat down on a bench, I needed a nice cool rest. We talked about our plans. I was contemplating not going to Animal Kingdom, I was tired and needed a rest. I was overtired and cranky. I didn't want to bring Jen down though so I just mentioned it briefly and said I would keep thinking about it. I was too cranky and tired to even get school bread. I don't know what was bringing me down but I was on Epcot Overload and the more overloaded I got the more sad I became because I didn't want any of the short time I had with Jen tainted with crankiness!
We decided to slowly head over to Canada and perhaps check in early. We stopped along the way to get a beautiful monorail picture.
While I waited for my perfect monorail shot, Jen was on bird patrol. We also discussed my fear of birds. It's ironic because I love sitting at my desk at home staring out the window at my goldfinches and hummingbirds, just don't come inside my house and I'm good.
We waited a LONG time for those perfect shots! We kept hearing Test Track and thought it was the monorail everytime. We kept laughing at ourselves after awhile cause we would do a little jump everytime we thought it was coming. It probably took a good 20 minutes or so for it to come back around.
We kept meandering over to Canada and we saw a photopass CM over by the gardens in Canada. I think the actually photopass ones are better but you get the idea of these ones from Jen's camera.
The photo CM kinda made a snarky comment about the design on our tshirts. She said that she met the artist of it and that did we know she doesn't make a penny from the use of her design. She made me feel bad and I was in Disney. I don't think she intended too, I just have this little flaw where I think people are attacking me all the time.
At this point it was about 1:20PM, our ADR was for 1:50PM but we decided to see if we could at least check in early and sit on the bench in the AC. We were still planning on trying to make the 3:30 Finding Nemo show at Animal Kingdom.
Jen went up to the podium, the CM was having a hard time with his computer so he sent us inside. Inside, I gave my name to the CM. She couldn't find me. I spelled my name out since sometimes they spell it completely wrong.
When she still couldn't find me, I pulled out my itinerary with the confirmation numbers on it. I glanced down to the Le Cellier ADR and my heart fell down to my toes. Our ADR wasn't for 1:50PM, it was for 12:50PM.....WE WERE THIRTY MINUTES LATE!
