This was an Epcot Day. Since Epcot is such a big park, we always get so tired on an Epcot day. So this trip, we decided to do Future World one day and World Showcase another day so we wouldnt be so tired.
So we got up, had breakfast at our villa, packed up the back pack and headed to the park. We made rope drop again !! YAY !!
DH headed to Soarin to get FPs while the kids and I checked out the gift shop to get something for DH. DS got him this:
DD got him this:
She thought this was a pen that you could write with. But as you can see, it is a wine stopper. We have used it quite a bit and we love it. We sent these to the front of the park so we could pick them up at the end of our day.
After that, the kids and I went to the pin station to get this beauty
You can see that Mickey has a tie ... pretty cute.
After that, we hung around this area until DH got back with Soarin FPs
You see how empty the park was ??? Rope drop people !! Do it !! Even if you are a few minutes late, you can still get a bunch done when you get there early.
When DH got back with Soarin FPs he proclaimed that the whole experience was just crazy.
Next up was Test Track ..baby !!!
It was basically a walk-on. 10 minutes tops. See ?? It pays to get there at rope drop !!
Next up was Mission Space GREEN. Orange is not for me. Umno. The stomach does not like spinny rides. Wait was about another 10 min or so. The kids played in the playground right outside the ride and DS sent some e-mails home.
After that, it was time for us to get another FP. FPs for Test Track again.
Then we were ready for Soarin
This is my FAVORITE ride at Disney. I love everything about it. The sights, the smells and the music. I always insist on front row. This time we asked for front row seats and this CM was telling us we had to wait when I could see that there were five spots available. I was like ummmm OK, we will wait. He makes us wait while he loads all of the other rows. There are still only two people in the front row. I kinda raise my eyebrows and him and he sighs and says step into row one. I so didnt get his attitude. From then on, he was known at the Soarin Nazi. Once we got seated, he snapped at me to put DDs strap through her legs when she was clearly higher than the red mark. I muttered that he was the Soarin Nazi and I know that he heard me. It was funny. Cheer up, dude, you work at Disney in the best ride EVER !!
The ride was awesome as always.
You know those Glade plug-ins ?? I think Disney should sell those with all of the Soarin smells. Seriously, they would make millions. Im just sayin .. .
