We have an early start. Breakfast is an all you can eat buffet and consists of croisants, rolls and for those who can be bothered to wait toast.
I am on a mission this trip to have my photo taken with loads of characters and while breakfast is going on Mickey is upstairs
Suitably refreshed we make our way to the main park and get a pre-ride photo
Space Mountain is our first ride of the day and we manage to get the front of the ride. This is Megan's first time as she is now tall enough. This ride is very different from it's Florida counterpart and goes up-side down and is very
intense. We are all very pleased with ourselves to have done this ride so quickly and well done to Megan.
Next is buzz, not my favourite ride but a hit with the others
As you can see I spend my time on this taking photos!
The next ride is pinocchio which i believe is only available in Paris
It is now gone 10 and the park is open to everyone so some more character photos must be obtained
[
We work our way over to adventure land and make a wish on the way
We ride the PoTC and are get stuck in our boat for about 20 minutes which is a little unnerving as all the announcement are in french and we are not sure when we are to be rescured (by captain Jack I assume)
Once freed we got a photo with Mr Smee
It is getting quite crowded now and we see if we get fastpasses for Big Thunder Mountain
The park has halloween decorations
We go on Indianna Jones next. This ride also goes upside down and a good few of us have a go on this one.Well done to Lisa and Megan for going on for their first time.
More characters are sought out on the way to Phantom Manor
We are disappointed that when we return to Big Thunder Mountain it is not working due to a technical fault.
I am doing well on my character photos
We watch some of the show and then double back and go on Star Tours. When we go to WDW next spring Star Tours will be closed as is undergoing a complete rehab.
We attempt to go on Honey I shrunk the audience but this has now been turned into Captain EO. I did tell everyone about Joh's recent warning but no one listened! In fact I really enjoyed this as was sooooooo 80s. Not sure if anyone else appreciated it though apart from some die hard Jackson fans way back in the theatre.
Next to the theatre is Pizza Planet and we get some more photos
By now we are starting to flag and we split up to do some shopping in the Disney Market place.
While the kids are in the shops we slip into rainforest cafe to make a dining reservation for this evening. We cannot resist ordering a cocktail.
This is the most delish ever rainbow colardo
The boys have a pitcher of margarita
Shopping completed we go back to the hotel to freshen up, but we first have a drink in our room before getting ready.
Mark and Kirsty messing about before we go out, we do love our Disney holidays
Tonight we have a nice big table and are very merry before we start!
Its nearly our 19th wedding anniversary so a quick kiss for Mark
Starter arrive
but more importantly so do the cocktails
Next come the mains, Steak for Terry, fajitas for Sara
a burger for Mark
Kirsty makes a face with her meal
O
We finish up and I remember that it was very pricey once again but we all had a great time and some of us are a little tipsy. We go get a coffee before walking back to the hotel
Once back at the hotel Mark thinks its a good idea at the time to put on Kirsty's sleepsuit!!
and goes to the next door room to show off his new outfit
I am not sure how much of this we all would have remembered without these photos lol
What a great day. We fall fast asleep very quickly not surprisingly
