September 9, 2011 - Day 11
Today we decided we were going to use one of our park tickets. We bought 10 Day non-expiration tickets back before our
January 2011 trip. We decided that since we had added the Park Hoppers (we never get park hoppers) we would start at Hollywood Studios to ride Tower of Terror then head to Epcot for a romantic afternoon touring the world showcase.
As soon as we opened the door to our hot hot room we were met with the coldest air ever. I was so disappointed in the Wilderness Lodge.
We headed to the front desk to complain again and to upgrade our park tickets.
I complained about the air and they said they would send someone. At this point I didn't really care I was pretty done with the room in general!
We had decided to pay the $58 a ticket to add on the Water Parks. Since we had 10 day non-expiration tickets for $58 we could add 10 admissions to the Waterparks that never expire. Funny thing though....Pete has never been to one of Disney's water parks. But we knew that even if we visit each of the 2 water parks sometime in our lives we will get our monies worth.
It was STEAMING hot out. It was September and we are used to touring Disney in January. It was very uncomfortable at 9am.
We got a big to Hollywood Studios. It stopped by the Wilderness Lodge on the way.
We started our weird (for us) Disney day way past rope drop! Sooo odd. We arrived at the park around 11am. ELEVEN A.M. The horror!
We stopped for a quick Hat Picture. Isn't Pete's shirt great!
I love the street performers at Hollywood Studios!
We knew we wanted to ride the Tower of Terror, but I was so hot. I needed to cool off.
I decided the Great Movie ride would be fun. Pete swears he had never been on this ride before. He lies, I know he has. LOL
There was no line, we walked right on.
When we got off we checked out some of the Hand Prints.
My main mouse!
Of course Pete wanted to check out the pins. I want this picture!!! I love it so much!
I wanted to see the American Idol show, but we had just missed a show and didn't want to wait a few hours for the next one. We had lunch reservations in Epcot. We headed towards the Tower of Terror.
By the time we got there my foot was hurting bad. I have a pretty bad heel spur and while on the cruise and walking funny because of it I ended up hurting my knee. UGH...I wish I could say I was all better now, but after returning from Disney last week I just want to cut my foot off! HA!
I LOVE this ride. It's my favorite!
The line was only about 10 minutes. What they say about September crowds are great, BUT these low crowds are not worth the 110% humidity or the heat.
See those sunglasses....I Love Them. I had broken the pair I got in January so when we visited Down Town Disney 10 days ago before the cruise Pete bought me another pair!
What a great ride!!! We decided to head to Epcot via the great boat!
