Day 3 or Saturday sep 22nd..
We slept in a little today (8am) and took our time this morning...The boys had a late night so I didnt want to pressure them on rushing..We had already done the Harry Potter early entry so we could by pass this morning.
After a nice breakfast in the club room we got ready and headed over to IOA by the Ferry..love these rides, so tropical. We wanted to do this park in the morning and then some of US in the afternoon.
First ride this morning was The hulk for the boys
..DD and I chickened out on this..in hindsite and sitting at my computer I wish I would have done it...Oh well next timeThen we wandered through Super hero island as we hadnt really explored this yet. The boys again braved another ride..Dr dooms fear fall...When they were doing this DD and I met this guy
He was great.. I didnt think he would talk but was nice to DD as she was a little afraid at first.
Up next ride we all rode was
This was ok..a little jerky at points but not bad.
We walked through toon lagoon again but had no interest in getting wet this morning..We had running shoes on today...Can I digress a little DH and my feet were ruined on this trip..by day 3 and onward it was running shoes every day...I had read other people say the only wear runners but I thought since i were flip flops all the time I would be ok... no way could my feet take them lol I probably could have saved lots of room in my suitcase if I hadnt brought all the nice shoes I wanted to wear...I guess lesson learned.
So anyways...through Jurrasic Park were DD and I rode Pteranodon flyer..love this and into Harry Potter
It was busier this morning as the park was already opened..not that bad though..we didnt feel like riding anything ..came for one thing..mmm butter beer!!
Wandered back behind the Hogs head restaurant was so nice and peaceful
We hung out here for awhile and soaked up the quiet!! I wandered into the restaurant to look at menu..This place was great love love love it!!
We decided we didnt feel like eating yet as I really wanted to go to Bubba Gumps over in city walk..I think it was only 1030ish and we werent starving yet...
Then we wandered through the shops...6 years ago I probably would have spent a fortune here as DS was so into HP..even had the glasses..I think he was Harry for 3 seperate halloweens..anyways..saved money and didnt buy anything.
Then it was over to the Lost Continent were we went into Poseidons fury..
This was interesting..you go into different viewing areas..actor was good and the finally was great..loved the effects.
We didnt do the sinbad show because of course my family didnt want to wait..oh well on my list for next time..
Moving on we head to Suess land as again we didnt explore much first day. Great theming here loved it all from bright colours music!!
We rode the Trolly ride which was cute and a nice way to see the whole suess land..then DD and DH rode
While they were doing this I needed to go and meet this great guy...
I wandered around and took some nice pics...
Well that was it for IOA until next visit...next lunch time and our favourite meal of the trip Bubba Gumps!!!
