Day Five- Wed. Feb. 5th- EE day at Epcot/Fantasmic in the evening- We slept a bit later today, but still made it to Epcot for EE at maybe 8:30 or so. I knew that I wouldnt be interested in any of the EE stuff at Epcot, so I didnt hurry
even though I knew that DH would HAVE to ride Test Track. We took the boat to an EMPTY World Showcase and walked leisurely to Test Track. My DH used the single rider line but said that it actually took longer than if he would have just used the regular one. Then we walked to Spaceship Earth and did that together. I dont remember it being this good. I remember a REALLY terrible ride on that thing the first time. I really enjoyed it this time. I have NO IDEA what I was thinking of. Maybe I had never ridden Spaceship before after all??? I have no clue, but it was a highlight for me actually. DH suggested Energy ride since it wasnt quite 9:00 yet, but I declined. I wasnt willing to waste 45 min. Maybe if we had gotten there at 8:00. We walked to the land and did the first boat around 9:00. Nice tour. I like this one. Then we saw Circle of Life. Didnt like it. My DH made me swear to no more movies. He even made me skip food rocks in protest. We did Journey into Imagination, but neither of us liked it at all
..LOL. We had some fun in Image Works though. We sent emails, and made a post card. I really want to do one of the picture packages there one day. We just havent been able to yet. We walked past Energy (big line
I dont get it). Is that all that is in the pavilion? Any thing else in there? Shops? Anything? We couldnt find any other entrance (other than the ride line), so we went to the Health? Body? Whatever
.Pavillion. We tried Making of Me, but none of us like that one (My DH repeated, NO more movies!!), then played a bit with the Exhibits. After Making of Me he made me skip Cranium Command. SHUX!! I messed up. We exited and examined Mission Space a bit. We then traveled out to the Leave a Legacy to find my DDs tile and get pics. I got a photographer pic of us under the ball, and she asked if she could photograph DD in 3 separate pics after ours. I tried not to get offended that she didnt find my DH and I attractive enough for the last 3
.LOL, but we obliged. We then went through each Innovention, but didnt find too much (we sent post cards and browsed mostly). Then we got one of the 1st seatings for Coral Reef Restaurant and got to sit by the tank. We saw the divers and the turtle and it was glorious. My DH and DD went through the pavilion while I went to pic up our pics (I bought 2). Then we just made our way out through Canada and the UK and took the boat.
I had wanted to do MGM tonight, but wow .it was getting late (about 2:30 or so). I had wanted to catch the 3:30 parade at MGM. DRATS!!! We still hadnt taken our rest. My DH was feeling much better and didnt want to rest. He wanted to go straight to MGM> ..YIPPEE sounds great to me. We made it in time to grab one of the last good spots for the parade. My DH ran off to do RNR, and my DD and I watched a parade. She loved it. She LOVES the parades. She waves ferociously at all the characters and the adults around us just all melt at the sight. So sweet. Parade watchers can be so rude though I tell you (mostly adults). Jumping in at the last minute and crowding the kiddies out of their spots. Not a big deal .just an observation. Its just a parade people! After fighting the exiting throngs we go to meet daddy outside of Great Movie Ride. He shows up and says that he has ridden RNR 3 times with no wait. He says that he could have ridden more but once he asked for the front row and had to wait a turn or 2 to get it. We now have time to see Playhouse. There is a show soon .yeah. He asked if he can skip and see Millionaire while I take DD to Playhouse and I have no problem with that. I had gotten to see Millionaire yesterday while he rested, and I knew he would like it. We each got in the lines for the show early so we made sure that we would make it into those shows, but there really was no need to worry. We both would have made it even without the cautious waiting. There was still time so we walked through One Mans Dream, but didnt do the movie. I was nervous about getting a spot for Fantasmic, but I really didnt need to worry and regret skipping the movie. We got in there maybe around 6:15 or so I guess, and got GREAT seats high in the middle on an end of the row, but then we of course waited FOREVER. And you cant get up to get refreshments or take potty breaks. My DH left DD and me twice for breaks and both times someone tried to take his seat. The row in front of me had 3 people leave for a break and I saw people constantly argue with the seat savers left behind about not saving seats. HEATED ARGUMENTS!!! There were literally thousands and thousands of seats all around us the theater had not even nearly filled to capacity and these people were bound and determined that they were going to get these 3 seats no matter what they had to do. I found it ridiculous. They were center seats, but come on .is it that big of a deal? So anyway my DD must have eaten way too much junk (pretzel and popcorn), because after we got back to the hotel she threw up everywhere. Oyyyyyyy!!!
Day Six- Thurs. Feb. 6- Check out of BWV-Move off-site- We took our time getting up, getting packed. We checked out but then hung around the Luna Pool and boardwalk a bit more. We didnt want to leave. We got in the car. Drove to Downtown Disney. Had lunch at Fultons. My DH wanted to do Disney Quest and I said that he could while DD and I shopped, but after lunch we thought maybe a short nap sounded better. We could check-in to the new hotel, nap, and then return later in the afternoon. Guess what happened? We napped till almost evening!!! I had wanted to shop the outlets before I shopped Downtown anyway, so we drove to the Outlets and shopped too much. On the way back we decided to stop and have dinner at Boma. It was getting quite late now. We returned to the hotel. Not much done today, but relaxing.
