Woke up at the more reasonable time of 8.15 this morning, we watched some weather channel and had Coffee. Decided we would go for a Swim spent ages in the pool it was a lovely day.

We went to Mara for Lunch, I had the Mara Chicken Salad, Pete had Chicken dinner with cous cous and the Boys had chicken nuggets and double cheese burger. We were all stuffed so popped our desserts (various cheeese cakes and zebra domes) back to the fridge in our room.

Next up we had a little walk to Kidani Village it was very very hot we had a quick look around the lobby and the pool area, seemed small after our pool but nice.
We walked back to the car and set of for Epcot,, first up as no queue was spaceship earth which was a relief as we were still boiled from our walk.
The screens werent working but still enjoyed our cool sit down.

Next up we decided, as it was quite late, we should get a fast pass for test track or soarin, the vote was for test track, so we got one although it wasnt until 6.30.

next we walked across to the land and headed for circle of life as we havent seen this for years and we were still very hot :rotfl:

The boys were hungry again so we headed to sunshine seasons and grabbed some chinese to share, Pete fished this big red lump out of his meal and asked what it was. Before I could reply he had eaten it, well he found out it was chilli:lmao: water was needed quickly !!!

Afterwards we haded to Nemo and then we watched a dolphin presentation in the living seas.

Then we went to watch Captain Eo, we found this rather odd but liked the music.

I had been in Epcot far too long without setting foot in Mouse gear so in we went to have a look around

Pete tried on a few hats

auditioning for Scilence of the lambs :scared1:

after Captain Eo. we headed to club kool and tried a few drinks. We do this every year and every year we decide they are terrible :rotfl:

then it was a mad dash to test track,. I love this ride. Then we hot footed it over to UK to meet up with Tracy (scojo's). We were 5 mins late no sign of anybody so we grabbed a drink and waited until 7.30. Decided we must have missed each other :sad2: hope you had a fab holiday Tracy:thumbsup2


Next up we had a wonder around Morroco and france eyeing up all the drinks we could have. Pete and I have fore warned the boys that next year we will be catching the bus to Epcot ( we intended to do it this trip but ran out of time) as we had the opportunity this year to have a couple of cocktails together and had a great time so this was one advantage to the boys being older :thumbsup2.

We spent a bit of time watching the Belly dancer in Morroco think the boys were impressed:love::rotfl:

Before we knew it it was time for a dinner so we hot footed it to Le cellier.

We checked in and I had my first blue glow tini. I love these and this started off a great interest in the cocktail menu from me ( the boys have already started a "Mums cocktail fund" in preperation for next time:goodvibes)

The food here was lovely, as usual and was one of our favourite meals of the holiday.

After a lovely meal we headed back to Jambo house and stopped in Mara for a few margarita's for Pete and I. This became a bit of a bed time drink for us:lmao:

When we got back to the room this was waiting on the bed for Pete.

Sorry about the terrible picture but I had had a few cocktails. Pete claimed his gift very quickly as it was full of his favourite snacks. He shared these with the boys most nights. I miss gummy bears and Margarita's:)

I ordered this from Disney florist as Pete had worked so very hard this year to make our trip possible :hug::love:: and I just wanted to let him know how much we appreciate him xx

( no idea what Jordan did today he wasnt telling !)

next up Animal Kingdom and lost Key cards :eek:
 
Another great day Rachel :thumbsup2 When we wake up, the first thing we do is put the Weather Channel on too

Love the idea of Mums Cocktail Fund :rotfl2::rotfl2:

.. and there's nothing better than having a nightcap before going to bed, I'm sure ours was a Captains Mai Tai
